Gu Hai charged out of the elevator cloaked with an air of exasperation while each heavy step resonated toward Bai Luo Yin.

Suddenly, the bustling entrance way that was crowded with people coming and going became calm and peaceful. And, in just the blink of an eye, all the female staff lingering in the lounge finally found their paths home as they scattered in all directions.

Bai Luo Yin was still leaning against the front of the car while his handsome, elegant and confident figure made it impossible for passersby to not give him a side glance.

Once Gu Hai stopped directly in front of Bai Luo Yin, their faces were nearly plastered together.

"What are you doing?" Gu Hai asked.

As if second nature, Bai Luo Yin's hand automatically rested on Gu Hai's shoulder, "I'm not doing anything, just looking for a place to rest and have a cigarette, that's all."

"What a coincidence," said Gu Hai, feigning a smile as he raised his brow and knowingly scrutinized Bai Luo Yin, "I see, you just happen to pick this place for a rest every-single-day."

"There are a lot of girls here," retorted Bai Luo Yin with an arrogant smirk tugging at the corner of his lips as he lit a cigarette.

Looking at him, Gu Hai immediately snatched the cigarette from Bai Luo Yin's mouth and placed it in his own mouth instead before moving to the side to lean against the car beside Bai Luo Yin. All the while, his gloomy eyes stared annoyingly at the front of his office building.

"Don't come here anymore." Gu Hai warned him, his voice was stern and demanding.

Bai Luo Yin listened on with contempt, "This is a public place, why can't I come here? Besides, it's not like I'm here to look for you. I am single right now, so I want to borrow the good energy from your precious company to find my fated other half."

Keeping quiet for a second, there was only the sound of cars and footsteps passing by as the smoke that blew out of Gu Hai's mouth carried a gust of chilly air.

Looking for your fated other half? I'm right beside you and you dare to still fucking look?

"There's no need to look. None of the women in my company are suitable for you, not to mention, every single one of them are proud and arrogant. Who would fall for such a calamity like you, always parading ostentatiously around town......"

In the end, after being in his own world and having spoken for nearly half a day, Gu Hai noticed that Bai Luo Yin did not react to any of his words. He turned his head for a look, only to see this bastard had pulled out a stack of business cards out of nowhere, and worst, there were about 50 cards with just one glance. He even flipped the card over one by one to look over the information as if he was selecting a fair maiden among all the beauties laid out for him.[1] And, let's not mention the look of satisfaction smugly riding his face.

Unable to look on, Gu Hai snatched those business cards over and shoved them all into his pocket without saying anything further.

Meanwhile, Bai Luo Yin tried with difficulty to not reveal his smile as he stared at Gu Hai, "Gu Zong, you're being stingy. Look, you already have all these cards in your office, why did you have to snatch mine away like that, huh?"

"I'm just borrowing them for a look to see how many of our company employees have such poor tastes."

Bai Luo Yin did not get angry or caused a scene, he simply pulled out the cigarette from Gu Hai's mouth while wearing a bewildered expression.
