Chapter 1077 - My Precious Wife (3)
An Yibei, on the other hand, acted as if he wasnt doing anything out of the ordinary. Leaning toward her, he asked, About that thing we talked about last time, do you have an answer for me now?
Cheeks burning, Ai Bao was only able to calm down after a long while. Do you have to go?
Yes. An Yibeis voice was a little husky. Will you go with me?
Ai Bao bit her lip involuntarily.
Leaving her hometown for a completely strange city was something she had never considered.
Growing up, she was used to doing as told. She went to a local university in Yu City, and the most defiant thing she ever did was move out of her parents place to live on her own after college
I still need some time. Ai Bao lowered her head. Im sorry
An Yibei didnt want to push her and only said casually, Thats ok. You dont need to apologize to me.
Shifting his gaze back to his computer, he went back to his work.
Ai Bao was fascinated by his long fingers as he typed quickly. A moment later, An Yibei paused and broke into a chuckle. Dont look at me like that. Ill get distracted.
Ai Bao nodded, buried her face in her hands, and hurried out of his office.
The two of them went together to have lunch in the cafeteria.
An Yibei had barely sat down when a man with sleek black hair and an expensive suit patted him on the shoulder and said teasingly, Mr. An, I see youve been converted! Youre eating breakfast now, I hear? Im so glad to see youre finally starting to care about your own health!
After all, I have a girlfriend now. An Yibei smirked. However, a pathetic single man like you cant possibly begin to understand.
The man pressed a hand to his chest in an exaggerated manner. Ouch! That hurts!
An Yibei raised an eyebrow. Thats not the worst part. The attorney for your case tomorrow is Ye Qingqing.
The mans eyes lit up. Is that so? Tsk, tsk. Isnt she that famous beauty of Ye City that once confessed her love for you? Ill have to figure out how to get her attention! Wait, thats good news, no? Why did you put it that way?
An Yibei adjusted his glasses and said calmly, Ye Qingqing got engaged last week.
The man grimaced. Youre heartless! Why did you have to tell me that?!
An Yibei shrugged and ignored him. He then put some food on Ai Baos plate. Have some more.
Ai Bao thanked him immediately. Thank you.
Theres no need for that. An Yibei smiled. What would you like? Yogurt or juice? Ill get it for you.
Whos this guy Ai Bao was intrigued.
The man looked shocked. What did I just witness An Yibei, the merciless great lawyer, is actually capable of being so gentle?! Whats gotten into you? Have you lost your mind or something?
Hes Tang Yuan, a lawyer from Sharp Edge. An Yibei briefly introduced him, then eyed Tang Yuan in disdain. Are you ever going to shut up?
Embarrassed, Tang Yuan stopped talking. His eyes darted around, then he made a zipping gesture across his lips before whispering, Hey, I heard quite a lot of gossip here in your firm today I was told that your assistant lured you in and one thing led to another
An Yibeis face darkened. Who told you that?
In another corner of the cafeteria, Xiaomi broke into a nervous cold sweat, fearing that Tang Yuan would give her away
Tang Yuan was obviously surprised. Darting a look at Ai Bao, he asked, So, this is serious?
An Yibei frowned, put down his chopsticks, and said unhurriedly, I see I need to make it clear now. Let me officially introduce you to Ai Bao, my girlfriend.
