Zuo An strode towards the sofa and said to her, "Come over here."
Xu Weilai's doubt was written all over her face, but still, she meekly walked towards the sofa and stood in front of him. Just when she was about to question further, he gestured her towards the sofa with his chin.
"Your job today is to sit here and rest." He ordered.
"..."
Xu Weilai was stunned for a moment, her dark eyes blinked a few times as she tried to wrap her head around his words. She repeated after him, "You want me to... sit here and rest?"
He called her into his office room not because of work-related matters, but because he wanted her to take a rest?
"This is not asking you to take rest, this is work," Zuo An stressed.
As he saw that she had no intention to move, he raised his hand and placed them on her shoulder, gentlemanly yet firmly sat her down onto the sofa. "Your working hour has begun. Please ensure that you complete the job perfectly, Secretary Xu."
