Checking the time, it was already past the end of the workday. The person who usually would have been home by now hadn't shown up yet.
Was the company very busy today?
An Ziqi bit her lip as she looked at her phone, hesitating whether to call him.
There was a knock at the door.
"Madam, dinner is ready."
"Oh, just leave it there, we'll eat when Moli gets back," An Ziqi replied offhandedly.
She picked up the phone and called Xiao Moli, but the call couldn't go through.
So busy, huh? She hung up and continued reading her book.
After the maid had come up several times to urge her, An Ziqi had no choice but to go downstairs and eat dinner alone.
Then she curled up on the living room sofa to watch TV, waiting for Xiao Moli to return.
Her eyes involuntarily peeked outside countless times, and she made another call, still unreachable.
It was past ten at night, and he still hadn't come back.
