The two of them then spent five minutes discussing the issue of the surveillance video in another lounge. Yu Ting successfully persuaded Director Sun Lei to cleanly cut the part of the surveillance video from that afternoon.

Yu Ting, having taken care of everything, came out feeling relaxed. Seeing Wei Qinghe's discomfort, she simply shrugged it off.
"It's okay."
"Oh, thank you."
Wei Qinghe stood in front of Yu Ting and bowed politely.
Even though it was almost November, a long-lost warmth filled his heart.
"It's okay."
