These days, Shen Tang is busy handling various tasks outside during the day, sometimes so busy that she can't even eat, and only when her stomach hurts from hunger does she rummage through the fridge for a few bites of cold food to heat up.
Jia Lan really couldn't take it anymore. No matter how busy she was every day, she would try to make time to come home before mealtimes to cook a hot dish for Shen Tang.
Otherwise, Shen Tang's reckless busyness could really wear her body out!
After dinner, Shen Tang routinely went to help Shen Li heal.
Tonight was the same usual routine, except that she was delayed by matters outside and returned even later.
The pitch-black night was dark and forlorn, thick clouds pressing low, hiding the stars and moon, making it seem like it might rain tonight.
Shen Tang glanced at the time. It was eight or nine in the evening.
She wondered if Shen Li had fallen asleep.
She went over and knocked on the door.
Soon, a voice came from inside, "Come in."
