Having learned from the previous experience, Secretary Qin swiftly handed over the mobile phone when permission was obtained. The meeting continued on the computer, and Pei Yu, with his eyes slightly lowered in a cold demeanor, casually glanced at the new message.
Secretary Qin carefully observed, hoping the content of the message would satisfy Pei Yu, so that he wouldn't have to work overtime there if Pei Yu decided to return to Huating today.
It was impossible to tell what Pei Yu was thinking, still maintaining an indifferent expression, his fingertips holding an unlit cigarette. His gaze shifted from the phone to the brightly lit night scene outside the window, and for quite some time, he said nothing.
They continued working until past midnight.
The transnational meeting finally concluded, it was still daytime there while it was the second half of the night domestically. Secretary Qin neatly packed the materials, preparing to leave work.
