Ye Mingmei still had work on her mind, but seeing Bai Zheng's expression wasn't very good, she hesitated to bring up the fact that she needed to leave.
"Mr. Bai..."
"Call me Bai Zheng."
Ye Mingmei had just started speaking when she was interrupted. She looked up, meeting Bai Zheng's deep gaze—a gaze so profound it seemed like an abyss, one misstep and you'd never get out.
