Monday, after a two-day break, Le Tong returned to the Ji Family full of energy. As usual, she brewed a pot of coffee for the chief executive. However, when she brought it in, the office was empty.
Le Tong put down the coffee, picked up a spray bottle, and sprinkled some water on the two green cacti on the desk. The bright sunlight filtered through the floor-to-ceiling glass, illuminating the lounge room. Le Tong glanced out the window, squinting, then picked up the cacti and placed them on the coffee table in the lounge room to let them bask in the sun.
Just as she bent over to arrange them, she heard the door open. Le Tong straightened up and turned her head to meet Ji Rui's scrutinizing eyes.
"Good morning, President! The sunlight is bright here, so I brought the cacti over to sunbathe," Le Tong explained, justifying her unauthorized movement of his belongings.
Ji Rui gave her a bland glance, hummed lightly, "Hmm."
