It was already 9 a.m. when Mo Xicheng left the Shi family home.
By the time he got to the office, it was 9:40 a.m.—ten minutes late again.
He parked the car and headed up the building hastily.
Just as he stepped into the office, his assistant immediately said, "CEO Mo, you're finally here! Senior CEO Mo called a few times to hurry you to the meeting. He sounded quite annoyed."
Mo Xicheng paused in the midst of loosening his tie upon hearing this.
Then he nodded at his assistant and said, "Ok, I got it."
Along the way to the office, he had been contemplating the expression in Si Jingyu's eyes when she had looked at him up and down.
That expression had quite clearly been an acknowledgment of his position.
He had hence been so happy that he hadn't thought his good mood was just about to come to an end.
He picked up the teacup on his desk and took a sip. Then he prepared to go upstairs.
