Hu Lei looked properly chastised, like a little school girl in trouble, as she sat down opposite Zhong Feng. She had only taken a short nap, but she had been discovered by the big boss immediately. This lady with a heart full of grievances did not admit that she had slept for almost three hours.
He must know that it was not intentional. She comforted herself in her heart. She had only wanted to close her eyes for a moment before consulting Sister Lin for more materials. It was not her fault that her tiredness had taken over her faculties.
"Miss Hu, are the office desks more comfortable than your bed?" Zhong Feng inquired with a strange non-smile.
Hu Lei did not seem to see the intent behind the question though the hairs on her neck stiffened at the cool voice. Or perhaps, she intentionally ignored the meaning behind the words. When she wanted, she could be quite the skilled in playing the fool.
"You mean I can go home?" she asked in delighted surprise.
