Just like Jiang Wen, Xue Hu had been up all night the previous evening.
What distinguished him from Jiang Wen was that while the latter had been excited all night, Xue Hu had been in a depressed state.

If not for the absolute trust he had in his intelligence network, he would hardly believe that all of this was real.
In his study, the ashtray on the desk was filled with cigarette ash, shrouding the entire room in a smog.
