In the office, Mo Han looked up after a long time, only to realize that Xia Qingyi was gone. She had been quietly reading on the sofa when he had last seen her, though he knew that she would not have been able to understand a single word in the book.
Mo Han stood up, wanting to go look for Xia Qingyi as he put down the documents in his hands. He saw Xia Qingyi the moment he left his office. She was sitting next to Li Jing, smiling widely as she chatted away with a male colleague next to her.
He frowned. The male colleague stood up immediately once he saw Barrister Mo. He hastily greeted Mo Han, before picking up his documents and hurrying back to his office cubicle.
"Why did you come out?" Mo Han asked Xia Qingyi.
Xia Qingyi was slightly upset that the person she was speaking to had run off the moment he saw Mo Han, "It was too stuffy in the room, so I've come out to walk around."
"Didn't I tell you not to disturb people working?"
