Who is calling at this hour?
She dismally returned the sweet and sour pork into her bowl and placed down her chopsticks before she picked up her phone.
When she saw the displayed caller I.D., her dismay instantly dissipated.
She hurriedly picked up the call. "Hello, CEO Ji."
"At home?" The man's cold and low voice came through the phone.
"Mhm," she hummed to affirm.
"CEO Ji, what is this call for?"
"Come out and have dinner with me," he said coolly, making everything sound casual.
"Ah, it's okay, CEO Ji; I'm already having dinner." His request caught her by surprise, but she still promptly declined it.
"…" Her quick rejection was apparently a huge blow to the man, for he went silent after she had said that.
"Er, CEO Ji, if you have nothing else, then I will hang up now." Her sweet and sour pork was still waiting for her!
