Says nothing

Shi Lian needs to mend her makeup before someone sees her. Black lines have made them on her cheeks and her eyes were back to red and puffy. How much has she cried? 

In her office washroom, she fixes her make-up cautiously. It will take some time and in less than a half-hour, she had a meeting. She cannot let people see her in this condition, broke and pathetic and what's the reason? It's related to a man. Pathetic. 

Fifteen minutes later, she is almost done with her makeup when Fang Xiao calls again. Shi Lian had to send her away from the outside when she came with the coffee in her hand. She told her to bring it later onwards. 

Dabbing the powder one last time, she is ready. She steps out of the washroom and says, "Come in. " She hopes she doesn't look any different any now or she will have to face another bunch of questions which she has no interest in doing.
