Chapter 08:

Su Li just glanced at Qiao Mumu, too tired to even talk to her, and led Shen Mo directly toward the elevator.

Qiao Mumu, feeling frustrated, shouted, "Su Li!!!"

Su Li stopped, frowning.

Not wanting to lose her composure in front of Shen Mo, she suppressed her anger and said, "Take the coffee away. Shen Mo and I are heading out. Call me if there's anything urgent."

Qiao Mumu stepped forward with her tray and asked accusingly, "Where are you two going?"

Su Li responded coldly, "Qiao Mumu, remember your position. Do I need to report my whereabouts to an assistant?"

"But are you still mad at me?" Qiao Mumu reached out, grabbing Su Li's sleeve, "Su Li, please don't be upset with me..."

Su Li rolled her eyes. "Let go."

As soon as she said it, Qiao Mumu burst into tears.

Su Li, having had enough of her theatrics, turned away. But then she heard Qiao Mumu say, "Su Li, I'll apologize, okay? I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..."

"I was wrong before; please don't be angry, alright?"

Su Li froze.

It wasn't that she felt soft-hearted; rather, Qiao Mumu's sudden humility seemed completely out of character. Seeing the young girl crying, she almost wondered if this was the same Qiao Mumu, who never before lowered her head.

Behind her, Shen Mo cleared her throat.

Su Li came back to herself, pulled her sleeve free, and continued walking.

"But I apologized! Isn't that enough? I said sorry..." Qiao Mumu, still clinging to her, looked at her through teary eyes. "Su Li, I feel so terrible. I can barely breathe... please stay with me?"

Shen Mo, who had been standing beside Su Li, asked calmly, "Do you need me to call an ambulance?"

"Get away!" Qiao Mumu's mood flared as soon as she saw Shen Mo, "It's your fault! Go away right now!"

She released Su Li and turned her anger on Shen Mo, pushing her away. But she forgot she was holding a tray with two steaming cups of coffee, and as she moved, some of the coffee sloshed dangerously toward Shen Mo.

Quick as a flash, Su Li pulled Shen Mo into her arms, stepping back to avoid the splash, though a few drops still landed on them both.

"Are you okay?" Su Li immediately checked on Shen Mo.

Shen Mo glanced at the coffee spots on her sleeve and shook her head.

"Qiao Mumu!" Su Li's fury was palpable, "Have you had enough?!"

Her voice sharpened. "You're suspended; get out of this company right now!"

"Su Li..." Qiao Mumu's voice trembled, finally realizing she had crossed a line, "I didn't mean to, I swear I didn't mean to spill coffee on her."

Ignoring her, Su Li turned away to escort Shen Mo out.

Panicking, Qiao Mumu tossed her tray aside and hurried to grab Su Li's arm. "Don't go! We still have things to talk about!"

Su Li stiffened, not daring to look at Shen Mo's expression.

She pulled out her phone and quickly summoned security. In moments, two guards arrived and restrained Qiao Mumu.

Qiao Mumu's voice rang out, "Su Li! If you leave now, I'll never forgive you! Come back here!"

Mortified, Su Li just wanted to get as far away as possible. But then she noticed Shen Mo's subtle movement.
