章 25: Officially Entering the Crew (1)

Qiao Anhao drove straight to Mian Xiu Garden after leaving Lu Jinnian's mansion. Without any fame or job, she spent the following four days cooped up inside the mansion. In these four days, Lu Jinnian never once came home.

One night, maybe due to her long afternoon nap, Qiao Anhao tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. She reached for her phone and looked at the time—it was close to 12 am. She then looked at the empty half of the bed thinking, 'He probably won't be back again tonight.'

If he came back, she would get anxious. But if he didn't, she couldn't help feeling disappointed.

Qiao Anhao pulled away her blanket, leaving the bed. Walking towards the balcony, she looked out into the night, a expression of loneliness clouding her face.

In his heart, he must have never thought of her as his wife... For the majority of the past five months, she had been left alone to guard this empty room.
