Bab 906: Softened

Ning Xi smiled, her eyes curving like crab apples in its first bloom. "Of course not, I trust your evaluation, Director Chen. If he can't even handle this, that won't really hold up well for your name!"

She was acting normally this time, not even putting in any extra effort and being lenient. That year when she had overshadowed Jiang Muye, she was cruel...

Chen Mian was almost bedazzled by that smile and he helplessly said, "That's enough, won't you have mercy on me!?"

"I'm sorry, I haven't managed to adjust myself in time."

Chen Mian was speechless.

As the two were speaking, Chen Mian caught Ke Mingyu from the corner of his eye. He seemed to be waiting for them to finish.

"Mingyu, do you need anything?"

"I'm here to talk to Senior Ning Xi." Ke Mingyu's usual poker face was unusually tense.

Ning Xi looked over curiously, unsure what she was needed for.

Among all of the newbies, she found Ke Mingyu the hardest to read. However, she felt an odd sense of familiarity with him.
