Chapter 797 Still Comfortable With the Iceberg (2)
"Little girl, I’ve missed you so much!" Bai Yiming’s lips twitched into a smile as he reached out for a big hug.
An Yiqing arched her eyebrows and, with a sidestep, stretched out her hand to push Assistant Bai forward, directly into Bai Yiming’s embrace.
"Young Master Bai, let’s skip the hug. I’m somewhat conservative and not very fond of physical contact," An Yiqing said with feigned composure.
As Bai Yiming wrapped his arms around the person in his embrace, he realized something felt off. When he opened his eyes, Assistant Bai’s face, as sorrowful as Sister-in-law Xianglin’s, suddenly appeared before him, startling Bai Yiming into a shiver and causing him to push Assistant Bai away.
"Little girl, how could you do this? You’ve ruined my innocence!" Bai Yiming said, biting his lip in mock agony, tears welling up in his eyes as if he were about to miserably wipe them away with a handkerchief.
Watching the red-clad "wronged husband" before her, An Yiqing’s mouth twitched as she felt her stomach churn. She felt around in her pocket and, under Bai Yiming’s puzzled gaze, pulled out a pack of tissues.
"Young Master Bai, I too am heartbroken over the loss of your innocence; however, I think you should focus more on patching up your dignity," An Yiqing said as she handed him a tissue, then floated away while he stood there, spellbound.
Assistant Bai held back a laugh, his face flushed as he watched Bai Yiming, who stood petrified, enjoying the rare sight of their normally scheming young master being played. It seemed essential to get on Miss An’s good side for the sake of more comfortable days ahead.
Bai Yiming racked his brains but couldn’t fathom that his assistant, who had been by his side for so many years, had defected to An Yiqing’s side in an instant.
