Ji Yi's silhouette long disappeared into the entrance of the subway before He Jichen averted his eyes, started his car up again and drove home.

Meanwhile, Zhang Sao heard a noise at the house and promptly ran over to see that it was him. She immediately smiled and said, ”Mr. He, you're back?”

He Jichen gave a slight nod and silently bent over to remove his shoes.

”Mr. He, would you like to eat anything?” asked Zhang Sao.

After he stepped into his slippers, He Jichen straightened up, shook his head and headed upstairs.

Back in his bedroom, He Jichen glanced at He Yuguang's belongings on the sofa that he brought back from Sucheng. There were clothes, a whiteboard, a phone, his watch...

He Jichen's chest started to feel stifled as he stared and stared at the pile. He walked over to the floor-to-ceiling windows and cracked open a window.

The post-rain air was refreshing, damp, and carried the faint scent of the flowers in the garden. The night breeze drew waft after waft of the scent into his nostrils.

He casually lit a cigarette. Through the clouds of smoke, he looked into the distance.

He remembered when he went to her house for the first time and how he incidentally heard her say to her mum over the phone, ”Ma, I'm serious. I'd rather be stuck with anyone but him!”

Also, at the hotel resort, she obviously had her phone, yet she didn't want to add him as a friend on WeChat, so she deliberately said she left her phone in her hotel room.
