The shop assistant had reached out on impulse, and now his hand froze in midair. He looked up at the fierce-looking Lian Jing in a daze.
Mo Ru took advantage of his shock and quickly shook off his hand and hid behind Lian Jing in fear. "Thank you, President Lian. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been…"
She did not finish her sentence. She just bit her lower lip hard in a pathetic manner.
The shop assistant quickly picked up cake box by its handle and apologized. "I'm sorry. I was negligent. I shouldn't have placed your cake on the ground. Miss, I'm sorry. I don't know what I was thinking. I've offended you. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
Mo Ru timidly stretched out two fingers. She carefully avoided touching Lian Jing directly and only gently tugged at his sleeve. "President Lian, why don't we forget about it? He probably didn't do it on purpose. Let's go back to the private room quickly."
