Today is a rest day. Su Hui's at work, Gu Ling's out with new friends she met, and Lin Xi is rehearsing with her dance group. This left just Gu Fan at home, who out of the blue, began feeling bored.
He spent some time gaming and watching television, but Gu Fan still felt listless. Everything seemed dull to him. It was in these moments he realized that having a woman around did have its perks.
Just when Gu Fan was at a loose end, he received a message from Ning Qi. She requested to meet him somewhere privately, claiming there was something important she needed to discuss. She emphasized that Gu Fan had to come alone, or else, she wouldn't say a word.
Having arrested Qian Ying during their last encounter, but not seeing Ning Qi, he theorized that she might have fled. Moreover, she might have information on the whereabouts of other members of Shennv Xuanhui.
