"Miss Kiang, where are your manners?"
Kiang Leilei who earlier had considered herself entitled to read the confidential document, was mortified and startled by the sudden appearance of the Chief Investigator.
She wished to vanish right away for it seemed like there was no rescue from the embarrassment.
"I--I------" Kiang Leilei turned slowly in an attempt to voice out an excuse but unfortunately her words failed to take flight.
"What?" Chief Li uttered as his eyebrows furrowed.
"I'm leaving, Mr. Officer!" Kiang Leilei managed to say in a somewhat whiny voice as she ran away and stormed her way out of the chief's office.
Chief Li just shrugged his shoulders as he arranged the contents of the folder and locked it inside a steel cabinet. Actually, he was ready to give the spoiled brat a good scolding but she was quick enough to escape.
"Aiyo! Rich kids nowadays!" Chief Li exclaimed.
