As soon as Xie Jun got off work and returned home, he noticed that the house felt different than usual. Excited, he searched the living room and kitchen but found no one. When he went to his bedroom to grab some clothes and take a shower, he found someone sleeping on the bed.
So she was sleeping in the room. Xie Jun sat by the bed and looked at his weary wife, feeling guilty. It was his inability to provide a better life for her that forced her to work so hard outside.
He reached out to touch her face before getting up to find clothes to shower.
Fang Hong slept in a daze, feeling as if something was crawling on her face. When she struggled to open her eyes and touched her face, she saw nothing. She shook her head, put on her shoes, and got out of bed.
Looking at the sky outside the window, she thought it should be time for Mr. Xie to get off work.
"Wife, be careful." Fang Hong had just walked to the room's entrance when she nearly collided with Xie Jun coming in.
