After making a round, her feet could hardly bear it any longer.
The new high heels she had changed into at the department store along with her clothes were rubbing against her feet, and her heels had begun to chafe painfully; by the end, she was practically dragging her feet along.
Noticing her discomfort, Huo Zhenyang suddenly stopped speaking.
The other mayors and deputy mayors from the coastal cities were taken aback and stopped as well.
"What's wrong?" Huo Zhenyang turned his head and fixed his gaze on her face.
In an instant, all the eyes of the influential figures were focused on her.
Jiayi was startled and her face flushed. She quickly hushed her voice and gently said to him, "It's nothing."
"Speak," he said, raising his voice by a few tones, clearly displeased.
