"After all, Teacher Xu is gone, and her gravely ill mom couldn’t withstand the shock of Teacher Xu’s death and passed away too."
Tian Tian’s chopsticks slipped from her hand and clattered onto the dining table.
Nanny Zhang heard the noise outside and quickly rushed over.
Seeing Mom watching the news, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.
"Mom!"
Nanny Zhang called out and was about to grab the remote to turn off the TV, but Tian Tian avoided her, not even looking at Nanny Zhang, and spoke in a low voice.
"I’m fine, I just want to see how shameless some people can be!"
Xu Rou was already dead, her mom was in poor health in the hospital. Naturally, Xu Rou’s death couldn’t be told to her mom at this time, but...
Tian Tian took a deep breath, closed her eyes, listening as Li Can shifted all attention to Second Miss Mu on the TV, a trace of a cold smile appeared in her eyes.
Li Can, whose person was she, she asked her brother to investigate, but later because she fell asleep, this matter just fizzled out.
Thinking of this, Tian Tian quickly got up and went to the living room, found her phone on the couch, and quickly dialed Haiyang’s number.
Haiyang was in a meeting, saw the call from his sister, and his eyes flickered.
"Let’s leave it here today; everyone, disperse!"
After speaking, Haiyang took his phone out of the meeting room, heading to his office.
"Tian Tian."
"Bro, is Li Can from the Shen Family?"
Haiyang’s step slightly paused, the new secretary beside him didn’t notice him stopping suddenly, and continued walking forward with her head down, bumping into his back.
A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Haiyang’s eyes, coldly glancing at the female secretary.
The female secretary blushed and quickly apologized.
"Sorry, Deputy Manager!"
Tian Tian: "..."
"Bro, are you at the company?"
Haiyang retracted his gaze, softly responding with a ’hm’, ignoring the little secretary with a flushed face, and quickly turned into his office.
The little secretary followed behind, holding a stack of documents needing his signature, hesitated briefly, and slowly followed inside.
"Tian Tian, why are you asking about Li Can again?"
Haiyang was puzzled; his sister shouldn’t be calling out of nowhere to ask about Li Can, could it be...
Haiyang suddenly stood up, the little secretary hesitantly entered with the documents, just arriving before him, and because of his sudden rise, caught unprepared, the two collided with a bang.
Tian Tian only heard a clatter from the other end of the call, followed by an anxious girl’s voice.
"Deputy Manager, sorry, sorry, I’m so sorry..."
That girl seemed to be caught in a loop of apologies.
Tian Tian blinked, glancing at her phone.
"Bro, you get back to work, I’ll hang up now, bye!"
Without waiting for Haiyang to speak, Tian Tian had already hung up.
Just as Haiyang was about to say something, he saw the newly hired little secretary still stuck in an infinite loop of apologies, and his anger instantly vanished.
Looking closely at the little secretary, he noticed she was young, around twenty-three or twenty-four, with a fair, clean face, no makeup on, not even light makeup, just bare-skinned.
At this close distance, he could see the little secretary’s skin was very good, almost flawless. Though her skin wasn’t as fair as his sister’s, it was still white, with a hint of baby fat, looking plump, with big eyes framed by black glasses, a pair of eyes as dark as ink showing complete embarrassment and panic from the recent incident.
