On Sunday, Lin Shen asked her out to see a movie. Bai Zhi was a bit on edge and also just too tired to go out, so she turned him down and then stayed home sleeping for an entire day.
On Monday, Bai Zhi had to get to work early, because there was the regular Monday morning meeting and she had a lot to prepare, so she always went in half an hour earlier than usual.
She bought a rice ball when she came out of the subway station. After getting to the office she hurried to eat it, then started getting the materials ready.
She got so busy she worked straight through to regular start time, but normally by this time Tao Mengxin would have arrived too; yet she still wasn't there.
