In the confined space of the elevator car, Xu Yun felt like all the sounds around her were being magnified indefinitely. First, the trash bag she was holding was taken by Su Yi, its plastic crinkling loudly, and then a man's warm arm brushed against her fingers, accelerating her heartbeat so much that it seemed like it was about to burst out of her chest.
Really, why did her act of throwing out the trash—originally supposed to drop Su Yi off first—end with him taking her downstairs under the pretext of the trash bag being too heavy?
Xu Yun said a quick thank you, told him she'd walk around in the lobby for a bit, and asked Su Yi to go upstairs first.
However, instead of leaving, the man pushed her into a corner by the glass door and wall of the lobby entrance.
"Xu Yun, how about you explain the bit about the child taking after his father?"
Heh!
