"Knock, knock, knock." At this moment, someone was knocking on the door from outside.
Ye Junqing became alert.
Little Starlight was also awakened by the noise.
From outside, Xia Yanyan's voice came: "Qiongqiong, open the door."
Ye Junqing gestured "shh" to Little Starlight, signaling her to keep quiet.
But Little Starlight didn't comply, as the knocking continued. She weakly asked, "Sister, the door is locked. I can't open it."
Xia Yanyan stood outside, appearing uneasy: "Have you seen a handsome young man?"
Ye Junqing shook his head towards Little Starlight, and she caught on: "Sister, I'm alone in the room. What handsome young man? Sister, can I come to your birthday party?"
"Aren't you sick? Be careful not to infect others. You should rest well."
Xia Yanyan stood outside pondering, the door was locked from the outside, her sister was alone in the room, Ye Junqing definitely wouldn't be inside.
