Wen Mian dashed out of the door, hurrying towards the bus station.
However, just as Wen Mian was about to board the bus home, Director Dong's call chased after her.
Wen Mian lifted her foot but did not step aboard, instead watching helplessly as the bus departed without her.
Director Dong's voice came through the phone.
"You should go back to the institute and continue teaching. You have a class soon. Let's set aside the previous matter for now. You'll still work at the institute from now on."
The rapid change in Director Dong's attitude made Wen Mian suspect whether Pei Zhiyao had talked to him.
In the few minutes since Wen Mian left the company, could it be that Pei Zhiyao had acted so quickly, arranging a new job for her right away?
Wen Mian was caught by surprise yet did not conceal her thoughts.
"Why so soon? Did Pei Zhiyao call you?"
"Pei Zhiyao?"
Director Dong shook his head, his voice distant, clearly not the case.
