1. Dr. Gao's Will to Survive
After the wedding, the couple returned to their mundane daily life. During this time, Jiang An switched jobs due to her work environment, still ending up in a well-paying private hospital, while Gao Chuan carried on with his duties, managing the company in an orderly fashion, their days filled with both busyness and fulfillment.
One day, after getting off work from the hospital, Jiang An drove home and received a message from Gao Chuan that he would be out entertaining clients that evening.
She had dinner alone and then video-called with Xia Zi for almost two hours. By the time she finished her bath and was ready for bed, it was already eleven o'clock at night, and Gao Chuan had not yet returned.
Jiang An left the door unlocked for Gao Chuan and lay in bed browsing Weibo to pass the time, somehow dozing off unwittingly.
