"Hoo..."
Ye Chen drew a deep breath, his expression complicated, then smiled at Kuize again.
"Thank you, Mr. Kuize. You've resolved many of my concerns."
"However, aside from what we just discussed, I'd also like to apply for permission to go out soon and travel to another province with my team for some proper recreation and relaxation."

Kuize smiled approvingly.
"Smart."
"The place I want to take you
