Unable to reject Huo Mian and Ni Yang's insistence, Chen Jie took a chair and sat down beside them.
With one leg over the other, Ni Yang sipped on his tea as he and Huo Mian began to chat...
"It's been hard for you during the Spring Festival. Your schedule looks jam-packed, do you want me to ask President Qin to give you some time off?"
"Yes, please! I've been really stressed out lately. I don't want to travel anymore, can I just stay in the city for a couple of days?"
After finishing his sentence, Ni Yang's gaze landed unintentionally on Chen Jie...
This tiny action, however, was captured by Huo Mian's keen eyes, but she didn't say anything.
Chen Jie finished her food very quickly. After a few bites, she got up and said, "Chief, I'll be getting back to work now."
"Aren't you going to drink some water? You're going to choke!" Ni Yang said as he grabbed a bottle of water, twisted its cap off, and handed it to Chen Jie.
