C19 What Did He Mean by That

In the bathroom.

Yan Wan stayed in an interval, sitting on the toilet lid, rubbing her arms from time to time.

The toilet was cool and cold at night.

"Achoo."

She couldn't help but sneeze.

Her cold was just right. If she were to stay here for the night, it was likely that she would catch another cold and get a fever.

Yan Wan felt helpless, and could not find a way out either. She could only lean against the toilet, feeling drowsy.

"Bang bang."

From the direction of the door, a light clashing sound suddenly came.

Yan Wan suddenly opened her eyes. There was hope in her eyes as she hurriedly walked out of the cubicle.

"Is anyone there? "I'm inside. Help me open the door."

She seemed to have heard her words, but the sound at the door stopped for a moment. Then, with an even louder "peng" sound, something seemed to have been thrown out of the door, and the bathroom door was pushed open.

Yan Wan was overjoyed. Someone had finally come to save her, so she wouldn't have to stay here tonight.

"Thank you …"

Before she could finish her sentence, Yan Wan was shocked when she saw a tall man standing at the entrance.

"Mr. Huo?"

Yan Wan never thought that the person who came to save her would be Huo Lyichen. She thought it would be a security guard that came to patrol.

Huo Lyichen's breathing quickened as if he was walking too fast and had not calmed down yet.

His gaze fell on Yan Wan, and he noticed that her originally rosy face had become abnormally pale. It seemed as if it was because of the cold, and her small body was also trembling.

Squinting, he took off his suit jacket, walked over, and draped it over her shoulders.

Her jacket was still warm, but Yan Wan's cold skin still made her feel extremely warm in an instant.

She froze, surprised.

During the meeting, he didn't even look at her. He was as indifferent as a stranger, so why did he treat her like this now …

Seeing that she didn't move, Huo Lyichen said in a deep voice:

"Can you still walk?"

"Yes, yes."

Yan Wan came back to her senses and nodded, leading the way.

Huo Lyichen looked at Yan Wan's petite back, and a hint of coldness could be seen on his pursed lips.

This woman's body was very weak. It was unknown how long she had been here, but she was afraid that she would get sick again.

He took out his cell phone and made a call. "Qin Chu, go wait at Sai Na International."

When she walked out of the bathroom, Yan Wan saw that the surroundings were quiet. All the employees had left work, and there was not a single person walking around.

But there were night security guards in the lobby.

Yan Wan and Huo Lyichen took the elevator down together. When they were almost to the first floor, Yan Wan took off her warm coat.

He politely handed it to Huo Lyichen, "Mr. Huo, thank you."

Huo Lyichen did not pick up the phone. He looked a bit unhappy.

"You don't need to give it back to me. Wear it and go home."

"There are security guards in the lobby. It would not be good if they saw me wearing your jacket." Yan Wan explained.

Instead of explaining, it was better. With this explanation, Huo Lyichen's expression turned even worse.

He stared at her dangerously. "What, it has something to do with me. Is it embarrassing?"

"No, that's not what I meant."

"What does that mean?"

Huo Lyichen suddenly approached Yan Wan. His tall and straight body seemed especially tall in the narrow elevator as he charged towards Yan Wan like a mountain.

He was so close, so dangerous that it made one's heart tremble.

Yan Wan subconsciously retreated, her heart beating faster.

Did she say something wrong?

But she did seem to have offended him.

She looked around anxiously and saw the elevator slowly opening up. She quickly reminded, "Mr. Huo, we're here."

Huo Lyichen stared straight at Yan Wan, with no intention to move at all.

"Da Da"

At this moment, the security guard in the lobby heard the elevator open and walked over.
