Xia Pengpeng grabbed the water beside her and gulped it down.

The security quickly stopped them, "I'm sorry, the meeting is over."
Xia Pengpeng heard the commotion and looked up.

Lady Mu walked straight toward Xia Pengpeng, "Can I have a few minutes of your time?"
"Of course!" Xia Pengpeng stood up, looking at Lady Mu.
