Chapter 279 - 267 Coming Soon 1
Lu Xiuya suddenly opened her eyes. Dazzling white light filled her entire field of vision.
She couldn’t help but reach out her hand to cover her eyes. It was extremely quiet around her, only a faint sound of car horns could be heard, as if coming from a great distance. It felt as if this place either had excellent sound insulation or was itself situated far away from the hustle and bustle of the city—in Capital City, only these two possibilities existed.
Even amidst the vague sounds of car horns, she could hear the occasional chirping of birds.
"Where is this?" she murmured softly, her voice returning to its normal timbre. It was somewhat hoarse but still mingled with a feminine softness.
But no one answered her. The quiet persisted. She could faintly hear the ticking of a clock’s second hand.
As her eyes gradually adjusted to the light, Lu Xiuya slowly moved her hand away. She then began to take in her surroundings.
This was a small room entirely in white, with a white floral chandelier on the ceiling and pure white walls all around. Directly in front of her, on the wall, hung a large square clock. The immaculate curtains covered the room tightly.
She turned her head to look, and even the bedside table was painted white, on which stood a small vase holding several white orchids. They looked fresh, probably having been placed there not long ago. A subtle, elegant fragrance wafted into her nostrils and seemed to lift her spirits somewhat.
She was covered with a blanket as white as snow, carrying a faint scent of laundry detergent, somewhat thick and soft to the touch.
Apart from herself, the room was empty.
