In the lobby on the first floor, everyone saw the once composed and graceful noblewoman rush out, her face full of urgency.
The crowd, startled, caught a whiff of something unusual.
"What happened?"
On the rooftop conference room, a serious meeting was underway.
Secretary Su suddenly appeared and interrupted the meeting. He walked quickly to Liu Qingfeng's side and whispered in his ear.
A few attendees exchanged glances. Secretary Su would never act so out-of-line unless something major had happened.
Liu Qingfeng rose calmly: "Today's meeting ends here. Everyone, get back to your duties."
With that, he turned and strode away swiftly. Despite his usual composed demeanor, the slightly hurried steps revealed a sense of urgency to the onlookers.
Could Gao Dongting's scandal be gaining traction?
The attendees grew even more grave in expression.
As Liu Qingfeng walked, he lowered his voice and asked, "Are you certain Xixi is missing?"
