Ch 43: A Shanghai Christmas Jingle

Dec. 24

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house (ahem Hotel)
Not a creature was stirring not even a mouse
Room 5519 was silent and dark, was there nobody there?
No, the electricity was out!- the staff cuts if off from 4-5am without a care.

Was Ashton angry or disappointed?
Certainly not.
He had a great night- a better time could not be bought.

And he knows that it’s Christmas Eve in Shanghai and he’s among a fortunate lot
To be attending a friend’s private Christmas dinner that evening- a winter party that promises to be hot!
