Good News and Bad News

On the 647th floor, Room 14.

Jiang Baimian—who had specially stayed behind to work overtime—sat up straight and cast her gaze at the door.

Bai Chen—who was also waiting for news in the office—sensed the commotion and also changed her sitting posture.

After a while, they heard footsteps.

Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong quickly appeared at the door.

Jiang Baimian sensed the corridor and confirmed that nobody else was passing by before asking, "How was it?"

Shang Jianyao spread his arms slightly and smiled. "Good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

There's good news? Long Yuehong—who was beside him—was the first to be confused.

After Mu Qingqing said that her father had died from a myocardial infarction five years ago, Shang Jianyao consoled her as if he could empathize. He then changed the topic and stopped talking about such matters.
