Xia Xin felt a bit timid and wanted to back out.
"...Master, you've arrived?" At this moment, the huffy Boss Cao noticed their presence, blocking Xia Xin's way out.
"Well..." Xia Xin strained to produce a smile and, with a stiff neck, walked in, "I, we just got here, just arrived."
Jiangli followed behind Xia Xin.
Seeing Jiangli, Boss Cao's mood shifted from stormy to sunny, and his face relaxed considerably, "Master, now that you're here, I feel relieved."
"Who were you talking to just now?" Jiangli walked straight in, asking without any hesitation.
Upon hearing this, Xia Xin instinctively covered his ears, fearing that Boss Cao would go on a rampage again.
Caught off guard by the question, Boss Cao's expression did reveal a trace of displeasure, but he didn't explode, only said darkly, "My wife, she's so annoying! I think she just wants me dead!"
"Can you elaborate?" Jiangli inquired.
Boss Cao's face suddenly seemed troubled.
Jiangli stood there, silent.
