Qin Zhi'ai smiled at the employee to comfort him before signaling to him that he could leave. After the he walked away, she took a step forward.
She knew Old Master Gu by having been Liang Doukou's body double. Once her arrangement with Liang Doukou ended, they were strangers again.
Despite knowing them, Qin Zhi'ai still had to pretend that she didn't. She smiled and said politely, "Hello, I am Master Gu's secretary. May I ask who you are?"
Liang Doukou poured a cup of tea for Old Master Gu and then one for herself, her hand visibly shaking as she did. She slowly turned her head sideways to look at Qin Zhi'ai.
Liang Doukou wore sunglasses and a face mask, so Qin Zhi'ai could not see her eyes or any expression on her face, but she could sense how shocked and surprised she was from the way her fingers had turned pale from gripping the tea cup too hard.
The atmosphere was uncomfortable.
