When the three of them saw Qi Longbing leading Hua Xiaomo in by the hand, their expressions turned somewhat gloomy. This was especially true for Pan Yutong, whose shock was palpable.
However, Miss Pan quickly adjusted her composure and hurried towards them, a wide smile on her face. "Ah Bing, you're back. You must be exhausted, right?"
Her lovely, large eyes were fixed entirely on Qi Longbing, deliberately ignoring the other person.
Hua Xiaomo, however, seemed unaffected. She was merely pondering how to make the true manager of the Qi Family genuinely dislike her.
And just as this thought crossed her mind, Hua Xiaomo was startled to realize that Old Master Qi's gaze had been fixed on her ever since she entered the room.
This won't do. I need to put on a bit of an act.
"Oh, excuse me," Hua Xiaomo said, deliberately pulling her hand from Qi Longbing's grasp and clutching her stomach with the other. "My stomach suddenly hurts terribly. I need to use the restroom."
