Chapter 502: You Don't Need to Report to Me Anymore

The indifferent man in the office sat alone on the sofa, seemingly well aware of Gu Xiaoer's arrival. His gaze never left the document he was scrutinizing in his hands, occasionally furrowing his brows as the pen in his hand scribbled hurriedly.

Gu Xiaoer tiptoed in, greeting him as usual with a bright-eyed smile, "Hi, Bai Xiaoyu, I've come to check in with you again!"
