The person who was grabbing her was Yu Yuehan.
He was holding her with great force. Just like an insecure kid, he seemed to be grasping onto something that could give him a sense of security.
She felt a little pain and subconsciously wanted to retract her hand.
Before she could draw her hand out of his clutches, he said in a deep voice, “Don’t go!”
Those two simple words came out in a very anxious manner.
She was slightly taken aback.
“Yu Yuehan, are you alright…” The moment Nian Xiaomu opened her mouth and spoke, he reached out and drew her into a tight embrace.
She was so shocked that her body completely tensed up!
After that, she felt a head pressing against her shoulder!
What kind of situation was this?
People might misunderstand if they hugged just after a disagreement!
Nian Xiaomu only realized that all the other employees had left after twisting her head and looking around anxiously.
The automatic door had already closed.
The two of them were the only ones left in the enormous meeting room.
Okay, so there was no one who would be able to misunderstand them.
However, she was misunderstanding…
“Yu Yuehan, talk to me nicely if something is the matter. Let me tell you, you can’t just hug a goddess when and as you like…” Nian Xiaomu started to squirm apprehensively and let out a threat, asking him to be responsible for his actions after he was done hugging her.
Before she could finish her words, he suddenly buried his head in her long hair!
The tip of his mildly chilly nose rubbed against her earlobe.
Nian Xiaomu trembled all over!
Instantly, a strange feeling permeated through all four limbs and all the bones of her body.
Just when she was about to push him away, his stifling voice rang out beside her ears.
“Let me hug you for a while longer, just a while longer.”
Nian Xiaomu: “…”
What was wrong with him?
Nian Xiaomu stared blankly. Just when she was beginning to wonder whether or not he was trying to seize this opportunity and take advantage of her, she realized that something seemed to be wrong with him—he appeared to be using his utmost effort to restrain something.
Indifference, alienation, and loneliness penetrated through him.
It was as if he was the only person left in the entire world…
Was he like this because of Wen Yadai?
Consequently, it turned out that it was agonizing for him to punish Wen Yadai.
In that case, why hadn’t he let Wen Yadai off just now?
Something seemed to be pressing against Nian Xiaomu’s heart, and she felt a little stifled.
She thought of the sentence that Wen Yadai had said, that they were childhood friends, and that Wen Yadai had once saved his life…
However, her heart felt uncomfortable the moment she thought of this.
It was easy for one to utter nonsense when one felt uneasy.
Moreover, she was a in state where she was unable to stop blabbering!
“You can visit Wen Yadai at the hospital if you are worried about her, and you don’t need to hold it in. She has already gotten her punishment and is in such a terrible state now. Yes, yes, yes, I know that both of you were childhood friends, and I understand that you feel sorry for her. Go and visit her if you want to. It is useless for you to be hugging me like this…”
“I am definitely alright. If you ask me for my opinion, there will surely be no companies that want to hire her now. Dramas with wealthy families as the theme will usually feature someone like her who has bad character. Since her reputation has already been damaged, she will surely be sneered at and taunted once she returns home. From now on, I would guess that she will be in for a hard time …”
“She did not really hurt me anywhere since I am so smart and intelligent. I shall pretend to be ignorant of everything if you give me a bonus as hush money…”
Just when Nian Xiaomu wanted to continue speaking, a huge hand covered her mouth all of a sudden.
She shivered as her mouth came into contact with a chilly palm.
She had forgotten what she wanted to say as well—all she did was lift her head up as she looked at the frowning man who was gradually loosening his grip on her.
Refusing to give in to him, Nian Xiaomu stared back at him immediately!
After that, he said in a clear and cool voice, “I am not related to Wen Yadai in any way. We were not childhood friends.”
Nian Xiaomu: “…”
Was this the only sentence he had heard after all that she had said?
Furthermore, why was he explaining this to her in such a serious manner? Her heartbeat nearly skipped a beat due to that concentrated gaze of his.
