Lin Banxia's beautiful eyes widened in astonishnt. She hadn't expected that Yan Ting would admit their relationship at this mont.
Although, in reality, aside from having slept together, they hadn't defined any relationship at all.
"Banxia, let's go. I'll take you ho!" Yan Ting stopped in front of her and extended his large hand toward her.
At this mont, Lin Banxia had no choice but to place her trembling, cool little hand into his palm.
The large hand suddenly tightened, wrapping her small hand seamlessly. Without sparing another glance at the livid-faced Qing Lin, he held her hand and walked straight toward the elevator.
Lin Banxia turned her head to look back at Qing Lin's exceptionally colorful expression. This man—was there finally a day when even he had to stay quiet in fear?
Was it because the person holding her hand was Yan Ting?
This man...
Lin Banxia couldn't help but lift her head. Her dark, misty eyes seed unable to clearly see him. But she still tried her best to open her eyes wide and look at him closely. Sohow, being held in his palm felt as though this lifeti might bring her peace.
The elevator doors opened, and Yan Ting led her inside. Qi Han stretched out his hand to block the bodyguards and a few assistants behind them: "We'll take the next elevator."
That was the hallmark of a good assistant—always attentive to his master's needs.
Lin Banxia was still unable to pull herself out of her shock when she heard the man's deep, seductive voice: "Do I look good?"
Her heart trembled inexplicably. Lin Banxia only realized then that she had been staring at him like a fool for far too long.
Her small face instantly flushed crimson, the blush spreading all the way to the tips of her ears.
"Thanks for earlier." Lin Banxia didn't want to express gratitude, but basic courtesy still had to be upheld.
He had truly saved her life just now. If he hadn't stepped in, Qing Lin might have angrily thrown her into the sea to feed the fish.
With a family as prestigious as the Huo Family, even if Qing Lin had killed her, it would likely be covered up in no ti.
"So, have you figured out how to repay yet?" Yan Ting's gaze deepened, and his thin lips curled into a faint smile.
"Uh..." Lin Banxia was montarily speechless.
Of course, she had been overthinking it; he wasn't just saving her for free.
"What does Mr. Huo wish for to do in return?" Lin Banxia's voice trembled with nerves. Her other hand, which wasn't clasped by him, suddenly clenched the strap of her bag tightly.
"You've been frightened enough during this trip. Go ho, take a good bath, and get so sleep." Yan Ting didn't pursue the topic; instead, his words carried unexpected warmth.
"But... didn't you just say you wanted to repay you?" Lin Banxia still felt that the matter was unresolved.
If repaynt was truly necessary, she'd rather clear everything up now. Otherwise, how would she be able to sleep?
"Even if I wanted you to repay , I wouldn't want the woman beneath to act like a startled little rabbit and ruin my mood." Though Yan Ting didn't explicitly ask her to offer herself, his words conveyed everything unmistakably.
Lin Banxia's heart tightened inexorably. Could she still hope for this man to kindly let her off the hook?
"Mr. Huo, what exactly are you thinking?" Lin Banxia felt as if she were trapped in a giant black hole, unable to see anything about her future clearly. The uncertainty made her extrely uneasy.
The elevator suddenly opened, and Yan Ting stepped out decisively, releasing her small hand from his grasp at the sa mont.
Lin Banxia hurried out of the elevator as well, following his footsteps, and asked resolutely, "I don't want to maintain so ambiguous relationship with you, but I also understand that right now, only you can save . So, can we just lay all the terms on the table? That way... that way..."
The man's pace grew increasingly rapid, forcing her to nearly break into a jog to keep up.
