He did not tell her that the moment he arrived home, he called out for her, searching for her presence. Reality hit a few seconds later, only then he realized that he had just returned from sending her off.
When lunchtime arrived, he would instinctively open the fridge and ask what Jiang Yao wanted to eat for lunch.

Every time it happened, his heart was filled with despair.
His wife had returned to Nanjiang City.
He got used to her presence very quickly.
Yet, it would take days for him to get used to her absence.
Like a drug, she put him under a trance, an addicting trance, one he could never break free from.

Jiang Yao took a glimpse. Her Hearing and Vision abilities had increased to thirty-five, from the initial negative numbers.
Even her Memory was now at five.

Back then, all she wanted was to save Lu Xingzhi, despite the System Admin’s repeated warnings.
