Xia Lu sat dazedly in the car for a while, pondering her next move.
"Might as well head back to the company," she thought. The time was right for the lunch break, but instead, she decided to find a place to eat first. However, she had never driven Zhou Mingchen's car before, and the last thing she wanted was to damage it in an accident and be held responsible.
After much thought, she finally decided to abandon the car and walk away.
Before leaving, she didn't forget to take another look at the Civil Affairs Bureau, only to find it completely empty; even the staff had gone out for lunch, so she had no choice but to leave.
After riding the bus for over a dozen stops and quickly finishing her lunch at a noodle shop on the corner beneath Fengguang Group's building, Xia Lu hurried back to the company, eager to get back to work. To her surprise, when she opened the door to the president's office, her own desk had vanished without a trace.
