An Lan's body stiffened, then she blinked at Zheng Qian, desperately signaling her, just at that moment, a large hand from behind enveloped her, another hand covered her eyes, leaving her to see only a sliver of light through the fingers.
"What happened today?" Huo Zhanting's face was cold and sharp like a blade, sending shivers down one's spine.
Zheng Qian realized she had misspoken; Director Huo seemed unaware that her department's employees were gossiping about An Xuan and Zhang Ya in the company, a situation An Lan happened to stumble upon.
If investigated thoroughly, this incident was due to her inadequate management of the staff, and she would be held responsible. Was she walking into her own trap?
Zheng Qian chuckled bitterly internally, glancing in An Lan's direction subconsciously, seeing her preoccupied, hesitating whether to speak.
Just then, a sharp gaze landed on Zheng Qian.
