How long can she keep hiding? Eventually, she has to face it. It was just a typical day at work, tidying up and then heading home. On the way home, she conducted an internal dialogue.

Take for example, Qin Zhiyou; he was rather good looking, with a nice physique and considerable skills. She didn’t really lose out being with him, and he even paid her. Moreover, he didn’t have any perverted hobbies, although he had tied her up once or twice, it was not the norm. He was considerate, always trying to take precautions, at least she didn’t have to harm herself by taking pills. Since they couldn’t divorce, it was better to make the relationship less tense at home than continuously trying to push him away.”

And then there was her mother’s recent improvement in health; the cancer seemed to be shrinking. If the cancer could be controlled and kept from spreading, it would be really good. Who knows, perhaps her mother could be discharged from the hospital in a few months and spend a long, long time with her. Although she had money for the next couple of months, it was uncertain whether that would be the case in the future, so she had to plan ahead.

All these thoughts almost caused her to run a red light, but a quick brake saved her. Having waited at the traffic light, her mood stabilized somewhat and she dashed off in her car.

But when she got home, Qin Zhiyou still wasn’t there.

She felt a bit uneasy but didn’t want to ask, so after dinner, she decided to kill time by sitting in the living room and aimlessly watching TV. Not really paying attention, she had no idea what she had watched. It was time for her to sleep, without any choice, she headed upstairs.

She woke up in the morning after a somewhat light sleep, and Qin Zhiyou still hadn’t returned.

Lu Weixi almost wanted to set off fireworks in celebration, but regretted the anxiety from last night which disrupted her sleep. She had a nice breakfast, didn’t go to the office, instead headed straight to a new client’s place to do a field survey. She first took the keys, measured the dimensions with Xiaochen and Xiaoqian, and the client arrived late. As soon as he walked in, he apologized, “I’m sorry for being late, work has been really busy.”

As if to justify his excuse, his phone rang and he moved to the side to take the call. Lu Weixi naturally didn’t mind, until she heard the words “Hanhai”. It sounded like some stocks fell, he advised not to panic and clear the stocks yet.

Lu Weixi waited for the client to finish his call, discussed some house design issues first, only after they finished working did she make a tentative enquiry, “I overheard you mention something about Hanhai stock, did it fall a lot?”

The client, who worked in stock trading, replied nonchalantly, “You must have heard the news recently, they had some safety issues, it wasn’t really big. The stock did fall a bit, but it’s within acceptable levels.”

Lu Weixi simply responded with an “Oh”, despite her lack of feelings for Qin Zhiyou and the Qin family, she didn’t wish for him to be too miserable.

No wonder Qin Zhiyou had been absent the past few days, it seemed that he indeed had some troubles. On her way back to the office after finishing the work, she was stopped at a red light next to an LED screen. It was flashing news about the recent safety incident, showing Qin Zhiyou in a black suit, with a stern expression. Xiaochen in the backseat reminded her, “Lu, the light’s green.”

Lu Weixi nodded and continued driving

When she got home that night, Qin Zhiyou still wasn’t there. The next day, he hadn’t returned either.

By the third day, Lu Weixi had gotten used to Qin Zhiyou not being at home.

Who knew…

(A new week has started and I’m looking for recommendations. If there are more recommendations I’ll try to write in a more relaxed manner, after all I’m not a devil..)
