Amuro Tooru, suddenly meeting Jiang Xia's eyes: "..."
At that moment, he suddenly wished his skin were a little darker, so he could blend completely into the shadows behind the door.
Unfortunately, Jiang Xia had clearly recognized him. And judging by his expression, the employee was not surprised in the slightest—meaning Jiang Xia had recognized him long before he turned around, and had probably been silently watching him for quite a while.
