Time quietly slipped into the end of December.
It had been over a month since Shen Weiyi moved into Sheng Ting's apartment.
Sheng Ting had been away for the past few days. The experiment he led had made a breakthrough and caught the eye of the national laboratory, which had been in talks with him. The two laboratories had reached a preliminary agreement to cooperate, and he was invited to discuss the details. This was his busiest time.
Early in the morning, Shen Weiyi's eyelids kept twitching, and during lunchtime, a piece of news popped up on her phone: a plane flying from abroad to the domestic had encountered a problem; it had lost contact.
A sense of dread suddenly clenched in Shen Weiyi's heart, and just then, her phone rang.
The moment she answered the call, she felt an inexplicable unease. When Secretary Jiang spoke, her anxiety peaked.
Secretary Jiang had brought very bad news: Shen Juanzhi was on the missing flight.
