The receptionist agreed with Gu Nianzhi's request and then went on to ask the Japanese people, "Do you still want to wait? Lawyer Gu won't be able to come downstairs for a while."
"That's ok, we wait." As they replied, they walked to the side of the lobby and sat down on a corner sofa.
...
Gu Nianzhi worked even more quickly and was soon able to complete all the work on hand.
After submitting her completed work to Special Assistant Zhuang, she glanced at her watch to see half an hour had already passed.
Would they still be waiting for her?
As Gu Nianzhi contemplated this, she called the reception downstairs.
"Hello, is this Lawyer Gu?" The receptionist in the lobby was able to see the caller ID displaying the internal extension line.
Gu Nianzhi confirmed this and apologized, saying, "I just finished my work. Do you still need me to come downstairs?"
