Mr. Qin's early departure from work sent ripples of curiosity through the mansion. Ziyu, his ever-observant aide, detected a subtle shift in the atmosphere upon his boss's return.
The oppressive air that usually clung to Mr. Qin seemed to have lightened, leaving an enigmatic ambiance.
Ziyu couldn't help but speculate about the unusual turn of events. Mr. Qin had left a crucial meeting abruptly, a departure that had never occurred before.
His mind raced with questions, and a single name echoed in his thoughts — Stacy. Ziyu pondered the connection between Mr. Qin's sudden exit and the mysterious woman who had seemingly stirred something within him.
As Ziyu mulled over the unprecedented situation, he recalled a rare sight from earlier in the day — Mr. Qin had smiled.
A genuine, heartfelt smile that had been absent for years. This revelation heightened Ziyu's suspicion that Stacy held the key to the changes unfolding around them.
