Chapter 206 She Turned Bad
Lin Banxia shook her head hard, forcing herself to stop thinking about all those unnecessary things.
Old Sir Huo had already given her a surprise; she should be happy.
Lin Banxia forced herself to lift the corners of her mouth into a smile.
But at that moment, her eyes, tinged with the faint hint of a smile, fell into a pair of dark, profound eyes.
The upturned corners of her lips froze abruptly; Lin Banxia seemed startled, her whole body instinctively shuddering slightly.
"Something worth celebrating?" Huo Yanting scrutinized her with a deep gaze and asked.
Lin Banxia suddenly felt her heart pounding rapidly, retreating a few steps with the guilt of a thief, ultimately leaning against the wall.
"Why are you here? Did you come to talk work with your grandpa?" she asked, feigning calmness.
Huo Yanting glanced at the tightly closed office door, his brows slightly furrowing: "No, I just heard my grandpa called you over, so I wanted to come and see how things are."
"Oh..." Lin Banxia listened to his words filled with concern, and suddenly felt even more at a loss.
As though she had betrayed him, her heart sank deep into shame and guilt.
"What did my grandpa talk to you about? You seem quite happy." Huo Yanting made this assumption because as he approached earlier, he noticed her upturned lips. If there hadn’t been some good news, there was no way she would have been smiling.
Lin Banxia suddenly regretted the forced smile she had put on earlier.
