However, Li Manni's sudden "intrusion" did startle Su Xiuxiu, who was in the midst of a phone call. She turned her head to glance at Li Manni, and her conversation abruptly ceased.
The atmosphere in the resting room turned quiet in an instant, but the voice from the handset continued, "Li Manni is someone Tianmei arranged. She's not part of our station's system. I heard she has a very strong backing over there at Tianmei; don't provoke her..."
Su Xiuxiu quickly hung up the phone, and the voice from the handset came to a stop as well.
With an embarrassed smile, Su Xiuxiu faced Li Manni, "I didn't mean to pry into your affairs. It was just a special reminder from the leadership."
Whether Li Manni had heard her previous conversation or not, Su Xiuxiu couldn't tell, but she explained forcefully anyway.
"Hmm, I hope we'll have a pleasant collaboration."
