OMG!
That caught both Ai Bao and Xiaomi off-guard.
"Gosh, Ai Bao, you shouldn't be telling me that during work hours! Jesus! Alright, I'm off to my work now." Xiaomi couldn't absolve herself quickly enough as she shifted the blame to Ai Bao.
Ai Bao had a guilty conscience to begin with, and once chastised, she could only lower her head awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
"Do you have nothing better to do?" An Yibei spoke again.
Ai Bao said uneasily, "I… don't, actually, but…"
"I'm not asking you."
Ai Bao stopped short in surprise. Looking up, she saw An Yibei glance at Xiaomi. "Don't wander off from your post during work hours."
Blushing, Xiaomi nodded and cast a stern glance at Ai Bao before she left.
An Yibei turned to Ai Bao, adjusted his glasses, and asked in his usual indifferent tone, "Have you gathered together the things I asked for?"
