Su Family Study Room.
Su Zhen and Shang Qingmei sat facing each other, the atmosphere somewhat stifling. Su Zhen held a cigarette between his fingers, and the ashtray on the table was already overflowing with cigarette butts.
Shang Qingmei was usually sensitive about smoke in the air and couldn't tolerate it, but today she seemed oblivious, allowing Su Zhen to smoke one after another.
A knock on the door broke the silence in the study.
Su Zhen wanted to stub out his cigarette in the ashtray, but it was full with no space left.
So he pinched it out with his fingers, feeling a slight sting of pain.
"Come in," he said.
Su Ronggui pushed the door open and entered.
"Ronggui?" Su Zhen was slightly surprised.
The first thing Su Ronggui noticed was the overflowing ashtray, which surprised him as well. Su Zhen was a disciplined man who rarely smoked at home, and it was said that he only smoked one or two in the designated areas at work.
So, something went wrong?
