But I could feel the tense atmosphere over there, as if the air itself had frozen.
Relying on the fact that the people inside couldn't see me, I confidently stared straight at that face, completely stunned.
It turns out that Su Shenglin, who is so polite and gentle in his dealings with others, also has this time when he frowns and exudes an imposing aura without being angry.
He must have encountered some trouble, either due to incompetent subordinates or problems with his work.

"Miss Jiang, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Su Shenglin stood up from behind his desk, once again displaying his refined, elegant, and debonair demeanor.
