Qu Fulan needed to travel to a remote area for work.
This round trip would take about a month.
This was the first time they would be apart for such a long time since they reconciled.
Qu Fulan felt a wave of farewell sorrow.
However, in this instance, Qu Fulan overlooked a problem. She waited until everything was settled before telling her boyfriend about the month-long business trip, and she would be leaving the next day.
As a result, President Pei was unhappy.
He didn't show anger; that's not his style. He was just indifferent, so much so that he acted as if he didn't see her when she walked past him, treating her like thin air.
Qu Fulan felt a bit guilty; she indeed put him last. If she had planned to do this from the start and told him, it wouldn't have ended up like this. To put it another way, if he were to make an important decision without telling her in advance, she would have been angry too.
