Su Yue trailed slowly behind Ming Ansheng with her head bowed . She was afraid that she won’t be able to avert her gaze from his face .
“Have you eaten?” Ming Ansheng halted his footsteps as he glanced at Su Yue .
Su Yue didn’t answer .
She was supposed to eat with Bai Jing .
But Bai Jing hadn’t appeared yet .
“Let us…” Ming Ansheng paused for a fraction of a second before pressing on . “Let’s have lunch together . ”
Su Yue refused and said, “No, it’s all right . Bai Jing is coming and I’m supposed to eat with her . ”
Her phone rang at this moment .

She fumbled for her phone in her bag . Bai Jing was on the other line and she answered, “Why aren’t you here yet?”
“Oh . ”
Su Yue hung up, and she pursed her lips .
Ming Ansheng stood before her and he could hear their entire conversation . However, he feigned ignorance and asked her on purpose . “Why?”
A sly smile flitted across his face for he was obviously gloating .
Su Yue muttered, “She had something urgent to attend to . ”
She was disappointed that Bai Jing couldn’t make it . She had waited for such a long time earlier on . She should have informed her earlier .
Then she wouldn’t have to bump into him .

“In that case… let’s eat together . ”
Ming Ansheng didn’t give Su Yue a chance to decline and he grabbed her wrist, pulling her towards the elevator .
Su Yue wanted to pull her hand from his grip, but he held on too tightly .
Ming Ansheng relinquished his grip after they entered the elevator . He stared at her intently and said, “Su Yue, you said it yourself . I will still be your Uncle Ming . ”
If only she could go back to how she used to be—acting like a child, depending on him and trusting him wholeheartedly .
Su Yue didn’t answer .
Ming Ansheng grabbed her hand once more when the elevator door opened . “What do you want to eat?”
“Let go of me . ”
Su Yue felt that it wasn’t appropriate for them to be spotted so intimately in public . Besides that, she was still together with Jiao Chen .
Ming Ansheng didn’t want to attract any attention, so he let go of her hand .
“It’s her!”
They had barely taken a few steps when someone pointed dramatically at Su Yue . “She was the one who threw the cup of bubble tea!”
Su Yue raised her head and turned towards the direction of the yells . The security guard was beside a man and a woman wearing a pink coat . They were headed in their direction .
They seemed intimidating .
Instinctively, she tried to hide behind Ming Ansheng again .
She wanted to avoid them since she didn’t feel like explaining or apologizing to them .
The security guard came to her and said, “Miss, someone saw you throwing the bubble tea at this guy . ”
“Is that so?” Ming Ansheng darted forward and shielded Su Yue completely .
He peered at the guard . “Where is the person? How did he witness the entire accident?”
The security guard focused on Su Yue that he didn’t notice the towering figure standing beside her .
Now that Ming Ansheng had stepped forward, the expression on the guard’s face froze . “President… President Ming . ”
Ming Ansheng’s eyes trailed to the man splashed with the bubble tea . He smiled and said, “I’m terribly sorry for this accident that happened here in our mall . ”
