Li Zhongnan glanced at her, his voice soft, "Come in."
Although the incident was indeed vexing and tiresome, he wouldn't say he was particularly livid over it. At the end of the day, he hadn't been able to coax the young girl when he came back in the morning.
Pondering from her perspective, if he had treated her coldly for over a dozen days, ignored her upon his return, then spent a long time alone with another woman, he would have done more than simply beat up the other party.
Her feelings were somewhat justified.
However, this young girl was too headstrong, too impulsive. Because of this, he planned to give her the cold shoulder for a while, then give her a sound punishment to make her remember the lesson and change her temperament. But now, seeing her vulnerable state, he felt a softness inside. He could no longer bring himself to scold her severely.
"Oh!"
Chen Xiaoting followed him into the office.
