Huang Xiaopang slept until noon before waking up, and upon waking, found himself lying at He Kao's home.
The phone was placed beside the pillow, set to silent mode. When he checked it, there were several missed calls, all from his mother. Scrolling through, there were also several calls to He Kao and Qian Guran, with one to President E in between.
He remembered it all. To avoid today's blind date at noon, he initially planned to make up an excuse saying there was an emergency at work, and he, as a key staff member, had to personally handle it.
This excuse was too flimsy; his mother probably wouldn't believe it, so he thought of asking He Kao for help to cover the lie. But He Kao hadn't answered the phone or replied to messages, seemingly asleep.
