Looking at the tightly closed door opposite, she wondered if she could try knocking on the other maid's door. Maybe the other party would agree to let her stay for the night.
She stood up, squinted her eyes to look through the crack in the door. It was pitch black inside; the lights should be off.
Su Jiuyi gently knocked on the door but did not make a sound.
After all, it is impolite to disturb someone's sleep.
There was no response from inside; the person should be asleep.
Su Jiuyi withdrew her hand and retreated back outside her room.
The temperature from the air conditioning in the hall was a bit low, lowering the temperature of the corridor, combined with the night cooling down, Su Jiuyi felt a bit chilly.
She shrunk her arms, crouched down against the door, embraced her knees, and stared blankly at the beautiful glass lamp in the hall.
Until sleepiness overcame her, she finally couldn't resist, buried her face in her knees, and fell asleep.
