The next day, after a long day at work, Ye Qianqian returned to the apartment only to find that Shen Zhilie wasn’t home .
Fang Tongtong wasn’t in either . After Ye Qianqian raced to complete everything at work, she was surprised to be greeted by an empty home .
She called Shen Zhilie on his cellphone . The call connected quickly . She soon heard his voice over the line .
“Hello?”
“You’re not back yet?” Ye Qianqian’s tone carried a hint of coquettishness in it . “I thought I’d be able to have dinner the moment I got back . ”
“Yeah . I’m working a little late today . One of my patients isn’t doing too well . I was so busy that I forgot to let you know . Why don’t you eat out with your best friend for dinner tonight?”
“Oh . Alright, then . Take care . Come back soon . ”
“Yeah . ”
Ye Qianqian hung up the phone and dialed Fang Tongtong’s number next .
Fang Tongtong was chilling alone at a café . When she received Ye Qianqian’s call, she answered it leisurely, “Hi, Qianqian . Where are you?”
“I’m at home . Where are you? Shen Zhilie is working overtime today and isn’t home yet . I haven’t had dinner . ”
“I’m at Industrial Plaza . Why don’t you come over? We can go for some hotpot . ”
“Hotpot? It’s such a hot day today…”
“My treat . ”

Fang Tongtong burst out laughing and disconnected the call before she resumed surfing the net on her phone .
“The guide for a short vacation in Kingstown . ”
Ye Qianqian and Fang Tongtong had hotpot together for dinner . Afterward, they took a walk around and bought clothes .
In addition to many pieces or undergarments and outerwear, they also bought sleepwear . By the time they returned home, it was past 10 p . m .
Shen Zhilie was in sitting on the couch in his sleepwear looking through some documents . He gave them a quick glance when he saw that they had returned . He bent his head back down as he asked, “Have you eaten yet?”
“Yes . We bought many clothes too . ” Ye Qianqian raised the shopping bags in her hands . “What did you have for dinner?”
“I haven’t had dinner . Why don’t you go on and take a shower? I’m a little busy . ” Shen Zhilie stared at the documents with an intense frown on his face . “There have been many women attempting suicide lately . ”

“What’s going on?” Fang Tongtong was a little curious . She placed her shopping bags on the couch and sat down to face Shen Zhilie .
Ye Qianqian merely glanced at him as she closed the main door . She remarked, “How busy were you that you even skipped dinner? I’ll cook you a bowl of noodles . ”
“Alright . Don’t add parsley . ”
Ye Qianqian made a face at him before heading into the kitchen .
Fang Tongtong repeated her question out of curiosity . “What did you mean when you mentioned ‘suicide’ just now?”
“Well, this is what happened . The female patient was educated overseas and worked as an executive at a large corporation . After being pursued by a suitor during one of her business projects, she entered a relationship with the guy . However, the guy’s wife suddenly appeared and gave her a good beating, calling her a homewrecker while at it . She even had her car scratched and wrote many horrible things on it . ”
“OK . What happened after that?” Fang Tongtong listened to the gossip with interest . She rested her face on her hands as she looked intently at Shen Zhilie .

“Well, the woman went to look for the man to get even . Throughout her entire relationship with him, she never knew was still with his wife . When she met him, the man begged her not to break up with him and promised to divorce his wife soon . In the end, he didn’t keep his word because his wife was from a rich and powerful family . In the meantime, this female patient became pregnant . ”
“Oh my god! What a melodrama!” Fang Tongtong looked horrified . “What happened next?”
“After that, the wife had the woman beaten up again, which caused her to miscarry . After word of it got out, the woman was fired by her company, and the man disappeared without a trace . She lost everything and became the subject of people’s insults . She couldn’t bear the pressure and slit her wrists at home . ”
“She didn’t die?”
“She didn’t die, but she’s no longer mentally stable . We’ve been dealing with this woman’s case for a while now . My subordinates couldn’t handle it, so I had no choice but to take it over . ”
