They informed him that Sang Zhilan hadn't come to work today.
Hadn't come to work? Tang Zhinian calculated the time, that wasn't possible. It wasn't her off-day, how could she not be at work? Tang Zhinian was more aware of Sang Zhilan's work schedule than anyone else. He was constantly calculating it, thinking about when she'd be working and when she might come to see their daughter. However, no matter how long her time off was, she never seemed to come back. Recently, she was coming home more often, but it was to divorce him.
That's right, the old gatekeeper nodded his head, she hadn't come in, and hadn't been seen since yesterday afternoon.
