One afternoon, Ye Que found it impossible to concentrate on work.
After work, he drove home and saw his parents sitting in the living room, watching TV. Not seeing Chi Zaozao, he assumed she had gone back to school.
He was in a particularly bad mood and wanted to go upstairs for a cold shower, but his parents called out to him, "Son, why didn't you bring Zaozao home with you today?"
Ye Que was still inexplicably worried about the girl. He turned to his mother and said, "She has her final exams coming up. She's busy with schoolwork and is studying at school."
After brushing off his parents with a few words, he went to the study to make a call to Xiao Lan.
He asked Xiao Lan to go check on her at the school.
An hour later, Xiao Lan called back, saying that Chi Zaozao was not at school.
If she wasn't at school, where could she be?
In the entire city, apart from the Tang Family, she had nowhere else to go.
