Chương 138: A Smart Move (2)

"Ahem," Xu Weilai cleared her throat and tightened her lips as she stared at her computer screen. She replied, "Mrs. Lin, I'm drafting a news report. I'll be done soon. Could you please give me five minutes? When I'm done, I'll call Gu Yu to ask him."

After all, continuity of thought was important in writing. Once her concentration was broken, it would take plenty of effort for her to reorganize her ideas.

Xu Weilai thought it was best to send Mrs. Lin out first so when she came back a few minutes later, she'd be able to say that she had already called him. That way, she would be able to avoid the problem altogether!

Xu Weilai looked at Mrs. Lin earnestly. Mrs. Lin smiled back at her as she replied, "Sure, Young Mistress."

Despite her reply, she didn't leave as Xu Weilai had hoped. Instead, she simply stood where she was. Judging from her posture, she intended to stand there for the next five minutes.
