“Are you kidding? I should know whether he’s my husband or not!” Huang Ling thought Chen Ge was joking.

“I looked through his phone earlier, and he called you seven times.” Chen Ge lowered his head and kept his hand in his bag.

“Doesn’t that show that he’s worried about me?” Huang Ling thought that Chen Ge was weird, in more than one respect.

“However, none of the calls were connected. It was a different person who talked to you on the bus.”

“A different person?” Huang Ling turned around to look at Chen Ge from shock. “Impossible!”

“Focus on driving.” Chen Ge pointed at the road and said, “I have no intention of lying to you; I’m just telling you out of kindness. It’s up to you whether to believe me or not.”

After that, Chen Ge went quiet, and the taxi fell silent. Huang Ling’s lips were pressed as she drove. However, her hands that gripped the steering wheel tightened. Several minutes later, Huang Ling stepped on the brake without warning. The taxi stopped in the middle of the rain, and the atmosphere was weird.

Huang Ling looked at the steering wheel for a long time before slowly turning around to look at Chen Ge. “Jia Ming was indeed different from before. Ever since the car accident, he has become a lot quieter, rarely communicates with me, and suffers from insomnia. According to the doctor, he probably suffers from depression.”

“Meaning the change in your husband was instigated by that car accident?” Chen Ge did not look at Huang Ling and kept his head lowered.

“Do you understand what I said? Jia Ming suffers from depression due to that car accident—he fell sick.” Huang Ling held the steering wheel and forced a smile. “Considering how difficult things are for our family, he volunteered to give up the treatment and stopped the medicine after a while. This is because the medicine costs quite a lot, and I am the only one supporting the family. I know that he felt guilty about it, and I can understand these changes happening to him.”

“Think about it closer. Other than feeling down, are there any other weird things that he has done? I mean things that are not related to his illness.” Chen Ge gave a few random examples. “Like you realized he was staring at you in the middle of the night when you woke up, or there was another voice that came out from his lips, or he killed some small animal without you knowing and hid the bodies in the room.”

Huang Ling listened to what Chen Ge said, and she turned to look at Xiao Gu at the back. She was starting to become fearful of Chen Ge. “No, the things that you mentioned did not happen at all.”

“You can look at your own phone records and think about it closely. This thing could be related to your life.” Chen Ge was not that interested in the man at Huang Ling’s home. He was more interested in the person that called Huang Ling on the bus.

“My phone records?” Huang Ling took out her phone to take a look. There were seven calls, but it did not show the call that she had with her husband on the bus.

“You may think that I am lying, but your phone won’t.” Chen Ge looked at rain outside the window. “I ask you to not hide anything from me. The person at your home might already suspect something. The next time you stay in the room with him, he might do something weird.”

Huang Ling held her phone and said after a long time, “After the car accident, Jia Ming became very averse to children and things like toys and dolls.”
