The female teacher quickly added, "Exactly, we teachers don't often get a chance to meet parents. As the saying goes, 'strike while the iron is hot', and given the great service you've just rendered, if you refuse to join us for a meal, it would indeed seem as if you're looking down on us."
Chen Kai let out a resigned sigh, "If that's the case, then I shall join you."
Everyone immediately broke out in happy laughter.
Meanwhile, Qin Xiang was on the phone with her sisters.
"Qin Ying, any news from your end? Where on earth has Chen Kai hidden himself? Send out everyone you can spare, no one should be left behind. Put our business on hold for now, mobilize all the security guards and any willing employees to find Chen Kai no matter what."
Qin Ying's voice was tinged with tears, "Big sister, I've already done as you instructed, and I've told Qin Min the same."
