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.

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.

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.
