However, after that drunken incident, Song Qingchun started to push the time before she arrived at the bungalow to 7 pm, and she would faint from tiredness and worry rather than sleep naturally at night. Her sleep was so light that any small movement would wake her up instantly, following which she would rush to the window to check whether or not he had returned. Then, she would return to her bed and toss and turn until she passed out yet again into her dreams.
However, after that drunken night, Su Zhinian had not returned home since.

After the big fight, he had tossed her a cheque and vacated her house immediately, cutting all contact.
