Ji Muran had already lain down. When she opened WeChat, she subconsciously started searching for Mr. Shen's chat box.
The last message was a short video she sent to Mr. Shen in the morning when she was leaving for work. Mr. Shen had not replied since then.
Ji Muran carefully calculated the time. By her estimation, it should be around five in the morning over there now.
It seemed Mr. Shen was really busy; her messages had gone unanswered.
While they were having dinner, Auntie Ye was worried she might be upset and specifically explained that Mr. Shen was truly busy with work, which was why he couldn't come back.
At the time, she wondered if Auntie Ye had told Mr. Shen about her birthday.
Mr. Shen couldn't come back, and there was nothing to be done about it. He had told her before that this time leading up to the New Year would be extremely busy, but things would calm down afterward.
