Although it was just past five o'clock, the sky outside had already dimmed.
Su Ye held the cup in her hand as time ticked away, second by second.

Suddenly, the sound of rapid running and a disorderly commotion echoed from the hallway.
Su Ye instantly sat up.
"I'll go out and take a look."
Shen Qifeng stood up and whispered quickly before heading to the door.
