Ji Niandong was awakened by the sound of a text message in the morning. She had been tense all night, practically sleeping in a state of alert.
As soon as the ringtone sounded, she sat up immediately.
Next to her, Shen Congling was still sound asleep, and Ji Niandong carefully got out of bed, afraid of waking her.
She picked up her phone and glanced at it. It was six-thirty in the morning, a text from Lu Beichen: "Good morning, Mrs. Lu!"
He adds another sentence: "I regret that I can't take you there myself, good luck with the audition!"
Ji Niandong couldn't help but smile as she replied, "Good morning, thank you!" She then added, "You're up so early?"
"There's an emergency meeting!" he quickly replied.
"Then I wish you success at work too!"
Lu Beichen replied with a smiley face, and Ji Niandong put down her phone and went to the bathroom to freshen up.
