By the time Ji Yi fell asleep from exhaustion, it was almost one in the morning.
He Jichen picked up the phone from the bedside table. He glanced at the screen. It was a text from Zhuang Yi received over two hours ago. "Mr. He, I'm here."
He Jichen didn't reply to Zhuang Yi but put his phone down and gently pulled off the covers. He walked into the bathroom to quickly freshen up then walked over to the bed in his loungewear. When he was certain Ji Yi was really asleep, he carefully pulled the covers over her. He grabbed his phone and wallet then walked out of the bedroom.
The cafe was close to the apartment - it was just over two hundred meters away, but He Jichen still chose to drive there.
There were no vacant parking spaces near the cafe, so He Jichen randomly found an empty space by the roundabout and walked over.
There were no other customers in the cafe aside from Zhuang Yi.
