Chapter 9 - Saved by the enemy

Lin Shen leaned back and looked at Ana whose gaze was equally fixed on her. He chuckled and added, ''Miss Lee, if you know someone like that, do recommend them.''

''Crazy bastard!'' Ana muttered softly as she looked at Lin Shen.

All the qualities he just mentioned seemed to be pointing at her. Was he directly coming for her now?

''What is going here? Mom, that wench is seducing Shen'er. He just mentioned every quality Ana possess.'' Shanshan said and stamped her foot.

''Whoa! I knew this boy was crazy but I didn't know he was on another whole level of crazy. To think that he would directly mock Ana this way... is truly satisfying to watch.'' Andrew muttered.

Mr. Guhan looked at Lin Shen with an uncomfortable gaze. He shifted his gaze to Ana and an uncomfortable feeling started rising within him.

''Miss Lee seem taken aback. Are my criteria a little excessive? Are they too high for any woman to meet?'' Lin Shen asked and Ana came back to her senses.

''Mr. Yu indeed has such high qualities, I wonder if a woman like that even exists.'' Ana said, faking a smile.

''She exist!'' Lin Shen replied confidently.

''I wish you good luck in finding her." Ana forced a smile.'

''Thank you!''

''My next question to Mr. Yu is…''

''You are breaking the rules, Miss Lee. You've asked me two questions already.''

''My apologies. Mr. Yu, what is your question?''

''What do you like to do when you are not doing anything?''

''I hardly have time to myself so, I don't really have a lot of things that I do. I go to work, go back home and sleep. Repeat the same thing all over again.''

''Isn't life boring if you live that way?'' Lin Shen asked with interest.

''I'm used to it.''

''I see..." Lin Shen chuckled.

''Mr. Yu, my last question before we wrap up this session. What is your definition of a happy life?''

''My definition of a happy life? Doing whatever I love to do at my own pace, making sure I enjoy every bit of it and living just for me and no one else is my definition of a happy life. If you can't enjoy life, then it means you are not living it.''

''Thank you, Mr. Yu for the time spent here.'' Ana said and closed the question leaflet she had in her hand.

Ana stood up along with Lin Shen and the back of her dress suddenly opened, and the zipper fell down.

Ana froze at once and touched her back. Her eyes widened when she noticed that her dress had malfunctioned right in front of no one else but her enemy, Yu Lin Shen.

Her underwear could be seen if one looked behind her. It didn't help that the cameras were pointing at her.

Ana's body tensed up as she looked at her stepmother and stepsister. They had satisfied grins on their faces.

''Don't move!'' Lin Shen suddenly said to Ana and took off his jacket. He wrapped it over her body Ana and held her hand.

''Come with me!'' Lin Shen said and walked away with Ana out of the stage.

….

''I will call your assistant to come in.'' Lin Shen said to Ana who was seated in front of the dressing mirror with her head lowered.

''Thank you, Mr. Yu!''

''You are welcome.'' Lin Shen said and closed the door. He turned and saw Vivian coming towards him.

''Mr. Yu, Miss Ana… she''

''Go in.''

''Thank you for what you did.'' Vivian said and hurried inside the room.

Lin Shen furrowed his brows. Remembering the smirk on Mrs. Lee and Shanshan's faces, he frowned.

He was someone who paid attention to details. When Ana stood up and her dress opened up from the back, he could see the satisfied grins on the Lee family members.

….

''Father, I really didn't know the dress had a problem.'' Andrew said, trying to explain to Mr. Guhan.

''Then, explain what happened? Who tempered with Ana's dress?'' Mr. Guhan asked angrily.

''Dad, who knows, she might have done something to attract Shen'er. He even gave his jacket to her. Shen'er has never given his clothes out to any woman. She is so disgusting.'' Shanshan said to her father and saw Lin Shen walking over.

''Brother Shen, you are here…'' Shanshan excitedly tried to touch Lin Shen, but he stepped back and maintained a distance between them.

''Mr. Lee, Miss Lee, Andrew, Mrs. Lee, hi.'' Lin Shen said, bowing his head politely.

''Lin Shen, thank you for helping Ana out.'' Mr. Guhan said to Lin Shen.

''It's nothing!'' Lin Shen revealed a polite smile.

''Shen'er, you did extremely well today. Thank you for coming all the way here. I am sorry for what happened yesterday. Ana, this girl is stubborn and doesn't listen to anyone. This time around, she made things difficult for you. I am sorry.'' Gloria said. Even though her words seemed like she was worried about Ana, it was truly the case and she came off a little excited.

''It's nothing!''

''Lin Shen, thank you for coming.'' Andrew looked at Lin Shen with a smile.

''You are welcome. Please, I still have somewhere to go, so I will take my leave now.'' Lin Shen said and didn't wait for them to say anything. He walked away feeling disgusted by Mrs. Lee and Shanshan's behavior.

''Shen'er…'' Shanshan wanted to follow him out but Mr. Lee stopped her.

''Stop there, Shanshan.''

''Father…'' Shanshan stopped when she saw Ana walking towards them.

''Father, aunt...'' Ana walked to them. She had changed back to her previous outfit.

''Ana, you did well today.'' Guhan said, feeling genuinely proud of Ana.

''What good did she do? Tell me, were you trying to seduce Shen'er?'' Shanshan asked angrily.

''I don't know what Miss Lee is talking about.'' Ana said nonchalantly.

''Is that Shen'er's cloths? Give it to me, I will send it to him.'' Shanshan said and tried to snatch the bag.

''Do you really want to send this to Mr. Yu?'' Ana asked and cocked her brows.

''Yes.''

''Then, I will have to trouble you.'' Ana said and handed the bag over to Shanshan and smirked.

Ana knew the kind of person Lin Shen was. She was sure he would put Shanshan in her place. But it worked out well for her. She didn't have to see that jerk's face for the fifth time in a row.

''Ana, you must be tired. Go and have a rest, let Andrew handle the rest.''

''What did she do? Just asking questions, she is tired already?'' Mrs. Lee said as she looked at Ana.

''I will take my leave then.'' Ana ignored Gloria and walked away.

''That rude wrench'!' Gloria muttered.

….

Jessy's Cafe.

''My empress, how could such great things happen to you in a day? Say, did you kill a lot of people in your past life? You encounter a lot of bad things each day.'' Jessy massaged Ana's shoulders as they chatted.

''Maybe I was a grim reaper in my past life and now all the souls I took to the purgatory are here to torment me.''

''But why do I feel that, since that Yu junior jerk saved you. He doesn't seem that bad.''

''Hey! I almost died yesterday because of him. Just because he helped me with his jacket, you are already falling for him?''
