Everyone was stunned.
Even Zhou Jinyu glanced up at Ye Nan, seemingly not expecting her to say something like that.
Gu Xi was taken aback as well.
It wasn't because of what Ye Nan had said, but because when the young woman looked at her, she had inadvertently revealed a look that said something like, 'This girl isn't a complete lost cause. Maybe if I lend her a hand, I can keep her from going astray.' Was it… pity?
Gu Xi was baffled. '...?'
The vast conference room instantly fell silent. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
The atmosphere was probably too awkward. As the host, Zhang Cheng cursed his bad luck inwardly but could only force a smile. He tried to smooth things over and ease the tension.
"Um..."
But before he could get a word out, Zhou Jinyu raised a hand to adjust the frame of his glasses.
