After dinner with Xiao Mei, she wanted Ye Qiu to stay and go home tomorrow. Ye Qiu was tempted, but he could only look, not eat, as he had to go back and continue his cultivation.
He wrapped an arm around Xiao Mei's waist and said, "Next time."
Around nine in the evening, Xiao Mei walked Ye Qiu to the door. He took the elevator down, got into his car, and drove back to the Peach Blossom Source Villa Community.
When he got back to the villa, Ye Qiu only saw Xiaomai playing the guqin alone. She was expecting him to return for dinner, but upon discovering no sign of him, she could only watch TV and play her instrument by herself.
Seeing Ye Qiu return, Xiaomai quickly got up and said, "Ye Qiu, you didn't come back for dinner."
"I had dinner with a friend."
"Go ahead and keep playing!"
Ye Qiu then went upstairs to play on his computer. Around ten in the evening, he took a shower and resumed his cultivation in his room.
