Chen Li, accompanied by his secretary, was led by the hotel staff to the private room Zhou Chao had reserved in advance!
Seeing the empty room, the secretary, puzzled, asked, "Director Li, who are we meeting? Why such a grand setup, yet no one's here, just an empty room!"
"Shut up!" Chen Li frowned slightly, his tone heavy.
The secretary, still looking around, trembled at the rebuke, quickly lowering her head in preparation for a scolding.
"Xiao Jin, sometimes use your brain. If I tell you not to speak, then stay quiet!" Chen Li said with some gravity, wishing his sister-in-law's sister, his secretary, were a bit sharper.
"Understood, Brother-in-law!" the secretary, Xiao Jin, whispered with a hint of grievance in her tone.
"Call me Director Li!"
"Yes, Director Li!"
Shaking his head with some resignation, Chen Li regretted bringing the secretary along. He had hoped to expose her to the world, but now he realized it was a mistake.
