Li Caiyi walked down the hallway behind the butler and couldn't help but feel the tension. The big place seemed emptier than before, making their steps echo in the quiet and spacious area.
Throughout the trip, the latter said no words, making her feel even more awkward. He led her to a big door and raised his hand at her, signaling her to wait. Then, he knocked on the door several times.
"Master, I brought Miss Li Caiyi with me."
"Enter."
"Miss Li, please this way," he said while politely opening the door for her.
Li Caiyi gulped and steeled her nerves before stepping into the room. The spacious room had a strong tobacco smell, making her frown slightly.
When her gaze met with the big man's sitting behind the big mahogany desk, she resisted the urge to look down and stepped forward.
"Good morning, Sir. The butler said you have something to talk about with me?"
