Song Xiaodong's cell phone, a device meant for gaming, was a gift from Miao Xuanxuan, but he was more accustomed to using his old phone, which had additional features. Now, with it broken by Su Yawei, he indeed felt a twinge of sorrow.
Glancing at the time, it was nearly the end of the workday, so Song Xiaodong didn't head back to the office and instead went straight home.
As he changed into slippers, he noticed the Miao sisters' shoes in the shoe cabinet; they had apparently already returned home without notifying him. But then he remembered his broken phone and assumed they had possibly tried to inform him to no avail.
Yet the living room was unusually quiet, not a sign of the Miao sisters, nor even Xiao Yingying—likely they were upstairs or had gone out together.
Entering the bedroom with the intention to change clothes, Song Xiaodong found someone lying on the bed—it was Miao Qingqing. She was covered with a thin quilt up to her waist, her upper body clad in a tiny nightgown.
