Forcing a change of topic, Gao Yang played it off pretty well, but this time, it felt like he had lost something precious, and his heart felt empty, leaving him uncomfortable.
Karima bowed her head in silence for a long time, and finally said softly, "Our finances, ahem."
Karima started to speak, but her voice was extremely hoarse and unpleasant. After clearing her throat twice, she slowly said with a choked voice, "Our finances are very healthy, and now we are already profitable."
Gao Yang turned and walked to the water dispenser. After filling a cup with water, he walked to Karima's side, not daring to look at her, and lifted the cup, saying, "You should drink some water first."
Karima held the glass with both hands, placed it to her lips but didn't drink, and tears dripped into the cup, her shoulders trembling slightly all the while.
Gao Yang definitely didn't dare to reach out; he stepped back a little, grabbed another cup for himself, and took a strong drink of water.
