During the process of waiting for his return, she did not call him.
Even though her mobile phone was always in her palm, and the landline at home was readily available. But she never dialed either of them.
Because she couldn't.
She knew that until she saw Emperor Quan himself, this matter was of great importance and required absolute secrecy.
However,
Time passed nine o'clock, ten o'clock, eleven o'clock... After midnight, one o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock...
Counting until daybreak, after half-dreaming and half-waking several times, she still hadn't waited for his return.
Looking at the daylight outside the window, she felt an abnormal emptiness in the bedroom, apart from her breathing. The gloomy sky outside the window, resembling the state before a storm, cast a dreary atmosphere over the entire sky.
It was terrifying.
