At this point upstairs, the crowd that had been waiting for Ling Xi for a long time still waited quietly for her arrival.
"Sorry for the wait," a cool voice rose beside the line of people, and in that instant, the previously calm expressions in everyone's eyes became animated with excitement.
"Xiaoxi, you're a bit late," Apo said upon seeing Ling Xi, looking at her with a teasing glint in his eye, the inscrutable implications in his gaze all too clear.
He had just accidentally noticed when he entered the elevator that Ling Xi was only a step behind him, but upon arriving upstairs, she was significantly delayed. Could it be she had a romantic encounter on the way? If Captain Sheng found out, he would surely be green with jealousy.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, the stone-faced captain could only be made to change by Ling Xi.
However, Ling Xi seemed as if she hadn't caught the teasing in his eyes and simply stated, "I just encountered a little incident in the lobby, which caused a slight delay."
