Shen Dong didn't want Zhang Tao to feel that his own authority as a boss wasn't enough, so he intentionally said this, making Zhang Tao almost cry upon hearing it. How could he have known that at the very moment he was eating frogs, his female colleague happened to expose her bracelet and even voiced those words?
If he had known, he wouldn't have sent that message and caused such a huge misunderstanding. And if he had been aware of the mistake, he would have explained it right away instead of waiting for someone to confront him about not replying promptly. How pitiful this all is, looking up and down, he felt like he was utterly jinxed.
