The man who entered was Li Sijie's husband, Sun Dongming, of about the same age as Li Sijie and also quite handsome. At first glance, they seemed a perfectly matched couple indeed.
Li Sijie flicked her hair, trying to hide her panic, and flashed a smile, asking, "Husband, what brings you here?"
Sun Dongming took a seat directly in front of the desk, resting his arms on the tabletop, and said, "I came to discuss something with you."
"What is it?" Li Sijie sensed that Sun Dongming's tone and demeanor were unusually pleasant today, making her somewhat surprised.
"Well, I have been negotiating a project lately."
"Negotiating a project, are you doing business?" Li Sijie was even more astonished.
"Yes, because this project is tough to negotiate, I need to often take people out for meals, which is why I haven't been coming home. It also puts me in a bad mood, causing me to lose my temper with you, my dear wife. Please don't mind it."
