However, no one dared to voice their concerns upon seeing the look on President Yin’s face. They didn’t even dare to exhale, and only waited for the king to issue his next command.
Yin Shaojie nodded. “Since there is nothing else to add, this meeting is over.”
Everyone was speechless.
You’re the President and the meeting ends when you decide it ends. We don’t have any objections. We wouldn’t dare to have any objections!
Thus, everyone tacitly packed up and left the meeting room hurriedly.
Han Qiqing was still holding onto her phone, stunned. She had forgotten to reply to Mu Xiaoxiao.
Yin Shaojie turned his chair around and held out his hand. With an expression of a master on his face, he said, “Give me the phone.”
Han Qiqing still wanted to gossip with Mu Xiaoxiao about what happened but she took in the sight of his outstretched hand and the slightly angry face of Great Master Yin.
She weighed her options. Which was more important: gossip or her life?
She chose her life.
She passed her phone reluctantly to Yin Shaojie.
Yin Shaojie held the phone between his fingers and placed it beside his ear, and was blasted by Mu Xiaoxiao’s angry voice.
“I don’t care if he did it deliberately or not. I called him, but it was a girl who picked up. How do you think I felt? I’m so pissed! Qiqing, do you think I should punish him? For example, I can start a cold war with him for a few days and let him sleep on the sofa, or…”
Yin Shaojie frowned and the vein in his temple jumped. “I forbid that!” he spat.
On the other side of the phone, Mu Xiaoxiao was stunned. She knew instantly that it was him, and her voice became more plaintive as she asked, “Yin Shaojie! Tell me who that girl is! Why did she take your phone? You’d better give me a good explanation!”
“What girl?” Yin Shaojie asked. It seemed as though he didn’t know what was going on either.
Mu Xiaoxiao laughed coldly. “What girl? The one who’s in your office holding on to your phone and who helped you take a call from your fiancée! Her voice sounds so good and I bet she’s also really pretty, huh?”
Yin Shaojie pushed his chair away and stood up. His frown deepened and he explained, “I don’t know any girl. I put my phone in the office to charge and my office was locked as well. There can’t be anyone inside.”
“Hehe, so you’re saying that I’m lying to frame you? Or that the person who answered my call is a ghost? You have a ghost in your office? Mu Xiaoxiao said sarcastically.
Yin Shaojie pinched his brows together and swallowed his anger. He didn’t want to fight with her.
The most important thing right now was to make sense of what was going on.
He said in a gentler tone, “I didn’t say that you were lying. Come over and we’ll figure out what’s going on together.”
In the classroom, Mu Xiaoxiao rubbed her aching legs and pouted plaintively, “I’m not coming over.”
“Why?” Yin Shaojie asked as he walked over to his office and pushed open the door.
His gaze turned cold.
The door was unlocked.
He strode into the office. One look at his spacious office showed him the person who was sitting behind his desk.
“It’s you?” He sounded displeased.
Mu Xiaoxiao heard his voice from the phone and guessed what was going on on his side.
It’s you?
This meant that he was acquainted with this person!
Also, his first reaction hadn’t been anger but surprise when he found out that someone had broken into his office and taken his phone?
A wave of fury rushed through Mu Xiaoxiao’s head and she hung up on him in anger.
