Gu Xiaoer stood by the coffee table, staring at the stack of contract books, unsure whether to sit or stand. It would take her at least a full day to read through all this text! She looked towards Bai Xiaoyu for help, but the man was so focused on signing documents that she lost her nerve to speak.

But if she signed too quickly, wouldn't it seem too hasty? She was sure to leave an impression of being careless and unstable in Minister Bai's mind.
