Sure, here is the translated text:
These two disciples, still under Bai Qinghua's protection, how are they more ruthless to the sect than me, a half-outsider?
Chonghui chuckled lightly—he no longer needed to force his expression, now he could make expressions freely in front of Shi Chuxin.
He said, "We are actually making it convenient for you. After all, we have a lot to discuss, and it will take a lot of time. But you're different from us—we are an external project team with no attendance requirements, while you are a full-time employee in the HR department."
"What if we spend too long on private matters, extending beyond lunch break and disrupting your proper work—wouldn't that be bad?"
This reason is quite flimsy. Chonghui said it merely to gain the upper hand in conversation over Shi Chuxin.
It has no real significance in terms of content.
But unexpectedly, Chonghui saw an unnatural look on Shi Chuxin's face.
