The Assistant's Weak Appearance

Just as Xia Ru was making a fuss, the long-closed door swung open.

Stepping out from inside were none other than Wen Shu and the employee, Ke Xin.

Xia Ru's gaze turned unkind as she fixed her eyes on Ke Xin, who instinctively moved closer to Wen Shu, seeking refuge.

Xia Ru sneered, "In broad daylight, the two of you are up in the room on the second floor, checking accounts? The ledger is downstairs, so what kind of accounts were you checking? Let me have a look."

Ke Xin hung her head, too afraid to face Xia Ru.

The more innocent Ke Xin appeared, the more Xia Ru seemed domineering.

Wen Shu found Xia Ru's loud behavior embarrassing.

He shouted in displeasure, "Enough! You're still the boss lady after all. Why are you so harsh on the employee? She works for you, not your slave."

"We weren't doing any accounting; there have been some issues with the accounts these past few days. She came to verify with me. What's wrong with that?"
