His mother's scheme

In her office, she sits on the chair, legs crossed and in deep thinking. Her nose crinkles from time to time as she debates internally. 

Shi Lian is unsure whether to say yes or no. She knows she should have made her decision earlier itself but she isn't sure. Fang Xiao has shown the required information she needed and it's getting harder to say anything about it. 

"I think we should go for it. The opportunity is good" Fang Xiao puts her opinion. Shi Lian glances at her in a way saying she heard her. 

If she says yes and regrets it later, the company will be the one to face the consequences. 

"If you overthink this, you might regret it later," she says, giving her a small smile. 

Shi Lian sighs, "Alright" she straightens her spine, "I have decided. ". Fang Xiao smiles nodding at her. 

Dialing his number, Shi Lian waits for the call. Within two rings, he picks up. "Hello? " he says, sounding annoying and cranky.
