"The corridors of the Imperial Palace were long, and the elevator was at the other end. Moreover, it was deep into the night, so naturally, there was no one in the stairway.
Li Qingshen walked swiftly. The mont he heard a door far away being pushed open suddenly, his pace quickened even more, and his expression grew serious. Reaching the elevator door, he paused for a mont, then quickly pressed a floor button. The elevator doors opened, and he swiftly slipped inside.
When Ling Momo ran out, she hadn’t properly put on her shoes and accidentally twisted her ankle. She couldn’t help but cry out softly, then steadied herself and looked up, just in ti to see a man in a blue-and-white checkered shirt dart into the elevator.
Ling Momo could imdiately tell it was Enson. There were only a few rooms on this floor— who would co out in the middle of the night?
Besides, she had followed closely behind him. Even if Enson walked fast, he had just reached the elevator.
Ling Momo gritted her teeth and took a couple more steps forward, but then found the high heels cumberso. She simply took them off, one in hand, and chased up the long corridor of the Imperial Palace.
When Ling Momo reached the elevator, it had just started descending.
She looked at the display outside the elevator; it indicated the third floor.
At another elevator door, Ling Momo pressed "3", then stepped into another elevator, continuing her pursuit.
Before the elevator had fully stabilized, Ling Momo stretched out her hand and ferociously pressed the "open" button. The doors slightly cracked open, and Ling Momo slipped out.
The third floor, like the first, had a lobby.
As she stepped out of the elevator, Ling Momo was montarily stunned.
It seed there was so kind of party going on.
The scene was extravagantly decorated, with delicate and perfect lighting, and the attire was extrely luxurious.
Fortunately, Ling Momo didn’t attract attention, keeping her head down as she quickly put on her shoes.
Then she turned to look at the elevator.
The Imperial Palace had sixteen elevators, and only two went directly to the top floor. Those two displayed the number "3", which ant Enson was definitely here.
Ling Momo rembered Enson’s blue-and-white checkered shirt and quickly scanned the crowd for it.
However, every man in the entire lobby was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. Who would wear just a simple blue-and-white checkered shirt?
Ling Momo stubbornly stood there, scouring the crowd multiple tis, but she couldn’t find the person she was looking for.
She couldn’t help feeling frustrated inside, just missed catching up with Enson by a fraction.
He might get angry and stop looking for her, good riddance, but she feared he might cancel her contract signing with ES!
With anxiety in her heart, yet unable to find Enson, Ling Momo sighed gloomily, thinking about heading back to the elevator when she suddenly saw Li Qingshen walking out from a corridor near the restroom holding a woman.
Ling Momo trembled all over, imdiately hiding behind a large porcelain vase in the corner of the hall.
Li Qingshen... her teacher, why would he be here?
Ling Momo broke out in a sweat all over!
Initially, when Enson had arranged for Li Qingshen to be her teacher, and the next day, when Enson called her to sign the contract at the ES company, she specifically told Enson not to tell Li Qingshen about her deal with Enson. Enson had been silent for a second, then had grunted and had hung up the phone."
