Just fulfill my wish since I’m your cousin!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Yaqian bit her lip; the reason she hadn’t agreed yet was mainly that this room was right next to the master bedroom, and the balcony was only separated by a layer of glass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she and Tang Song did something raucous at night, her cousin might hear them, and that would be so embarrassing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking for a moment, she leaned in closer to He Liting’s ear and expressed her concerns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Liting’s eyes brightened instantly; she bit her lip, slightly blushing, and said, “Actually, I’m a bit hard of hearing.
