Xia Weibao cleared her throat with two dry coughs, then found her voice again, "Director Lu, I have some things to take care of tonight and may be busy until very late. You should go to sleep first, don't wait up for me."
"Where are you."
On the phone, the man's voice brooked no argument, and Xia Weibao could even hear the sound of him picking up his car keys.
"I still have things to do, I'm hanging up now."
She hung up in a bit of a panic, afraid that he would come looking for her.
However, as soon as she had hung up the call, his call came in again.
This time she didn't answer but turned off the phone instead.
A break not made when it's due, will bring chaos anew!
She threw her phone onto the passenger seat, got out of the car, and leaned against the door, staring blankly at the great river before her.
It was almost October, and the evening breeze by the river was a bit chilly.
The wind was strong, and it tousled her hair.
