Gu Lanshan stared at her phone for a few seconds, gently pursed her lips, then put the phone back into her bag.
She started the car, was about to press the gas pedal, thought for a moment, then paused again, took out her phone from the bag, dialed Sheng Shi's number, hesitated for a while, and made the call.
The call connected. Gu Lanshan held her breath, quickly thinking about how she should explain herself to Sheng Shi, but the call was abruptly ended by the other party.
Gu Lanshan stared blankly at her phone for a while, then threw it back into her bag, pressed the gas pedal, and drove off.
As she drove, Gu Lanshan thought about the birthday gift she bought for Sheng Shi, still left in her office. It was now close to midnight, and the SH news agency was probably already locked. She could only retrieve it tomorrow to give to Sheng Shi at night.
Gu Lanshan slightly slowed down at a fork in the road, then turned towards the road leading to Royal Villa.
