It was an odd day for Lin Sunji.
She woke up earlier than her alarm, which was unusual—she was normally either startled awake by the alarm or woke up after snoozing it three times.
At breakfast, her mother served her favorite English breakfast instead of the usual soybean milk and deep-fried dough sticks that her brother and father preferred.
At the Lin Company, she didn't overhear anyone gossiping about her for once. Normally, before she even stepped into the office, she would catch snippets of coworkers whispering about how she had only gotten her position through family connections, not through skill. Sometimes, they'd mock a mistake she made the previous day, saying that if it weren't for her brother being the current head of the company, she would've already been fired.
But today, when she arrived, the office was unusually quiet. The employees were at their desks, sipping their morning coffee, calmly beginning their work.
