As they went out to meet the group of rallying employees, Mo Aini decided he would not look directly at Hu Dongtian anymore.
Which proves to be quite difficult.

"Just... The situation, sir." He made up an excuse on the fly. "I'm thinking of what must be said to appease the people. They seemed to be very upset with you, and I want to know how to calm them down."
"I see. " Hu Dongtian went in front of him to press the elevator button to the ground floor nonchalantly...
