Testing the water

Captain Sheng was still day dreaming after Zhang Zian hung up the phone.

A colleague walked by and saw that Captain Sheng was not acting normally. He asked, "Captain Sheng, what is going on? Are you okay? Would you like me to call your wife?"

The colleague was confused. Captain Sheng had been fine the whole day, yet he looked lost after getting a phone call.

"I am fine. I am fine." Captain Sheng rubbed his eyes, "Hey, do you think geniuses are all strange?"

The colleague didn't expect a question like that. He guessed it might be related to the phone call so he said carefully, "They could be."

Captain Sheng only wanted to speak to someone about it. Now that he was done, he stood up and said, "I've got to go. Call my mobile if you need me."

"No problem," the colleague said.

Putting on his hat, Captain Sheng walked out of the office quickly.

After hanging up, Zhang Zian said to Fina and Old Time Tea, "I am getting some breakfast. Let's cross the road. Be careful."
