Chapter 906
Before Xu Jiamu got into the car, he stopped as though having realized something . With his head slightly lowered, he said to Song Xiangsi, "I changed my mind . I don't need you to spend three days and nights with me . I just need two hours at eight on Sunday at the Four Seasons hotel . "
After he said this, he bent down and got into the taxi . The taxi drove off before Song Xiangsi could snap back to her senses .
–
The next day after after blood donation, Xu Jiamu lay groggily in bed with a fever all day . It was not until nightfall that his temperature fell .
He was still a little weak after he ate some food, but he wasn't the least bit sleepy . He was the only one in the villa, and the silence left him a little flustered .
When Song Xiangsi was back in America, he would often feel lonely, but now that she was back and he was in the same city, he felt even more lonely .
Xu Jiamu smoked two cigarettes, then walked into the study room . Since he hadn't been in the office for a day, there were dozens of emails in his inbox . He sat in front of his desk and looked through them one by one . When he finished working, it was already 5 am in the morning . He took a shower, and then drove to a random breakfast cafe for some food, then went to the office .
There was a tall pile of documents on his desk . He sat down and started to read through them, as though he didn't know what tiredness meant . He waited for people to come to work one after the other . He signed all the documents . Next, the secretary had to give him a run down of the day's schedule . Then, he had a meeting, and lunch . . . All in all, he was so busy the entire day, he had no time for a breather .

Xu Jiamu and Song Xiangsi didn't see each other after the day he donated his blood, nor did either of them take the initiative to contact the other .
That weekend, Xu Jiamu was alone in the office, working overtime for two days . It was not until six o'clock in the evening on Sunday that his phone reminder alarm started to ring . He saw the three words: Evening, 8 PM .
Xu Jiamu stared at those words for a long time, but eventually flipped his phone over and continued to work on his computer, all the way until twenty past seven . He then shut down his computer and cleaned up his things, then walked out the door .
It was twenty to eight when he reached the Four Seasons hotel . He booked a room, yet he wasn't in a hurry to go up . Instead, he waited in the lobby for about twenty minutes . At six past eight, he finally saw Song Xiangsi's car parked at the entrance of the hotel .
She stepped into the hotel lobby . Xu Jiamu waited until she noticed him before he got up and silently walked up to the elevators .
Song Xiangsi kept to about five meter distance behind him .
The elevator doors opened . Without even bothering with her, Xu Jiamu headed right towards his room . He swiped his card, pushed open the door, and walked in .
Seconds later, Song Xiangsi followed him in . She stood at the door for a while, before gently closing it .
Xu Jiamu sat sluggishly down on the sofa, then casually turned on the TV . After a while, he saw Song Xiangsi still standing at the entrance . He then turned the TV's volume down . Without thinking before he spoke, he suddenly asked, "Does your husband know that you're in a room with another man?"
When she heard his taunt, her usual arrogant eyes turned dark and she slightly lowered her head .
Xu Jiamu's mood grew increasingly more annoyed when he saw that look on her face . He turned his head and wouldn't stop clicking the remote control, changing the channels . In his head, he thought back to how similar this scene was to the first night they'd spent together many years ago .

The Girl He Used To Know - An UnderCurrent Story
Pierre Havelock is an author, atleast now he is. In truth 3 decades ago Pierre was dragged across space & time only to land on our boring old earth.So when one of his 'characters', a girl based on someone he once knew in his past life, appears before him - Pierre is less than best pleased. He is even less happy when said girl decides to make his house her new home! __Now on Royal-Road! ‘The Girl he Used To Know’ began life when I came across a rather silly prompt on a web-novel site I was using; "Theme: My 2D waifu is now my real life Valentine's!?"Well with a title like that I couldn’t help but be interested by the idea of leaving my usual writing niche and trying something a bit more novel. Tying it loosely back to my main series ‘UnderCurrent’, ‘GUK’ was born as a standalone romance novella which you are now holding, styled with Japanese tropes in mind from a more western perspective.I hope you will find this to be an interesting and fun read - Designed with the intent of being a somewhat contemplative and ‘cosy’ story - Whatever the case I thank you for picking it up and giving it a once over.- Momentie __I adapted Draft 2 to audio - I can't voice act, or edit, yet I kinda like it & find it personally the best way to enjoy the story😂 - https://youtu.be/kNWiSiZU53U
