"What are you still doing here? Are you waiting for her?" Lin Ye knew they had not left since he didn't hear any footsteps.

"If I don't call you back, don't even set foot near the entrance. Take it as a paid leave for all of you." His tone was impatient, as though they were wasting his time.

The butler was overjoyed. So their master still cared about them. 

After all, it would be difficult to find jobs if they were suddenly fired.

The butler scurried away, too.
