After He Jichen hung up, he put the cigarette in the corner of his mouth and took a drag. When he slowly blew out a cloud of smoke, he looked out his car window and stared at the tall building nearby. Through the smoke, his gaze fell on the illuminated window of his apartment.
After staring for such a long time, He Jichen only blinked when his phone rang. He slowly withdrew his gaze as his eyes swept over his phone screen. It was someone from the company calling - they were probably rushing him to come back. He didn't pick up the call. He snapped the cigarette between his fingers and stepped on the gas as he slowly drove away.

When the door opened again, Ji Yi thought it was He Jichen returning from seeing Dr. Xia out. Her body instinctively tensed up before she heard Zhang Sao's voice: ”Miss Ji.”
Ji Yi was stunned for a moment but after two seconds, she raised her head to see that it was just Zhang Sao on her own.
She assumed He Jichen was still talking to Dr. Xia outside. Ji Yi smiled back at her. ”Zhang Sao.”
Before He Jichen left, he gave Zhang Sao many sets of instructions; she remembered each one by heart. She waited for Ji Yi to finish changing her shoes and step into the living room before she immediately carried out what He Jichen asked her to do. ”Miss Ji, are you hungry now? Shall I whip up some supper for you?”
Ji Yi shook her head.
Zhang Sao thought about what He Jichen said - if Ji Yi wasn't hungry, make her a cup of hot milk to help her sleep instead. ”Then Miss Ji, shall I prepare a hot cup of milk? After you drink it, you'll sleep a little better.”
Ji Yi hesitated for a moment then gently nodded.
Zhang Sao smiled brightly and replied, ”Miss Ji, please wait for a moment,” then she headed into the dining room.
