Han Lie had slept exceptionally well, waking up at 8:00 AM feeling refreshed and energetic.
By the time he had showered and emerged from the bedroom, Liang Wu was directing a waiter in setting up breakfast. Lü Shuli, meanwhile, sat on the sofa with enormous dark circles under her eyes, sipping hot coffee in small mouthfuls.
The scoundrel pretended not to notice the dark circles and asked with feigned concern, "How did it go? Did you manage everything smoothly?"
"Very smoothly, thank you for asking."
Lü Shuli glanced down at her documents and quietly rolled her eyes.
This young lady has been swamped since 8 PM on Saturday—it's now 8 AM on Monday—and I've had less than four hours of sleep in total. You tell me if it went smoothly! What's most infuriating is that for the entire thirty-six hours, that scoundrel didn't send a single text! Now he decides to show concern? Too late!
