Song Qiao had just come out of the restaurant when she saw Lu Jingchen descending from the second floor. Her steps faltered slightly as she watched the man walking past her. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but the man walked straight past without giving her so much as a glance.
For a moment, Song Qiao was stunned, watching his retreating figure, unsure how to react.
...
For nearly a week, Lu Jingchen had been leaving early and returning late. By the time he came back, Song Qiao was already asleep. When Lu Jingchen left in the morning, Song Qiao was still not awake. Although they were in the same bedroom, it was as if they hadn't seen each other at all; Song Qiao hadn't seen Lu Jingchen for almost a week.
During this week, Song Qiao had gradually handed over her work to other agents, including the recently popular Qin Zhe and An Ke.
