Lu Tian knew that behind Yue Ling's facade, she was holding in her anger from what happened.

Any one would be angry if they had their innocence taken by some stranger. Even he was angry knowing he had to sleep with some random woman.

He was glad that it was her and not someone else.

Maybe he should give his weird assistant a bonus.

From his time in the business industry, he could tell that this woman knew how to carry herself.

She wasn't like other women he's come across. Her clothes weren't flashy like other rich women, but he knew her clothes weren't something anyone could afford.

She also wasn't like other women who wore thick layers of makeup. Neither did she flaunt about her beauty.

Plus, the bag she carried wasn't cheap, he's seen his cousin carry one before, and she spent a good amount of money on it too.

But one thing that still stood out and caught his attention the most was her mesmerizing bluish green eyes. He was for sure now that she was not full Chinese.

Knowing that it was him who forced himself onto her, it was only natural that he takes responsibility for his own selfish mistake.

*Ding* the elevator stops at another floor.

"Haha, excuse me if I catch the elevator with you both."

A man in a navy suit spoke before entering the elevator.

Glancing at the man, Yue Ling forced a smile, "Of course. There's plenty of room."

'Yes! Plenty of room! Now I don't have to be in such an awkward situation.'

The man smiles happily at Yue Ling, he did not hesitate to get in the elevator, especially when there a total beauty inside.

But, before he could even take a step forward, he paused dumbfounded.

Lu Tian who was standing across from Yue Ling had now taken two steps to stand next to her.

Leaving his spot empty.

The man stared awkwardly and suspiciously at Lu Tian's sudden move, he curse inwardly. He had thought the beauty was by herself, he did not expect this man was with her.

But who cares, the beauty was too tall for him. He liked petite women anyways.

He sigh with a heavy heart and enters the elevator.

Lu Tian stood next to Yue Ling like a general protecting his empress from the enemy.

Looking at him, Yue Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She didn't like the man, but she was also thankful. The look the new man gave her made her feel weird.

The rest of the elevator ride was nothing but silence as no one spoke.

Well, more like an awkward silence.

Upon arriving on the first floor, the moment the elevator doors slide open, Yue Ling bolted out the doors. She ran as if she was in a marathon aiming for first place.

The man was rendered speechless. He looks at Lu Tian then in the direction Yue Ling ran, then back to Lu Tian.

He opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out.

"She's shy."

Lu Tian said to the man as if it was the most natural thing, then he exits the elevator and leisurely stride in the direction Yue Ling ran.
