This line, "Leader, you called for me?" contrasts sharply with the previous remark, "Damn it! Who's calling me at this time!"
In fairness, Gao Xiao's strength doesn't really require him to show any respect to the three leaders of the Special Ninth Bureau.
But, after all, they are leaders, and it is the Special Ninth Bureau, a bureau that holds a distinct position.
He still wants to openly interact with this woman, to gain her power, and to have that power recognized by the Special Ninth Bureau, so he must lower his stance.
Otherwise, if he ends up being hunted by the Special Ninth Bureau like Mr. Lin was before, then all this power would be useless.
Yet, the inconsistency in his demeanor revealed deep scorn under the trembling eyelids of the woman.
Even more so than what was on her face.
Meanwhile, Gao Xiao, who answered the call, had already gotten out of bed.
His voice was raised a few notches:
"Is that Zhang Feng being unruly? Should we punish him?"
