Yohan was completely bewildered by the events that were unfolding. He couldn't believe that he kept bumping into this man at just the right moments. Even in his previous life, they had never met so fortuitously like this, except for their initial meeting.
However, such encounters had been impossible back then, Yohan had always been locked away and unable to experience life beyond those confines.
Still feeling the man's large hands hugging him from behind, Yohan's body tensed up with confusion. Why was this cold man still embracing him like this? Before he could process these thoughts any further though, their positions suddenly shifted, he felt himself being turned backwards, until he was shielded from the crowded elevator by this man.
Unbeknownst to Yohan, the big man who had previously tried to bump into him twice turned out to be a pervert trying to take advantage of Yohan within the confines of that small space. The cold man, however, quickly caught on when he saw the lecherous stare and predatory aura directed at Yohan. He glared at the perverted individual with an icy gaze and aura that made even those nearby shiver.
Without saying a word, he took it upon himself to protect Yohan from any potential harm until the creep finally retreated away in defeat. But before the pervert moved away, the cold man leaned in and whispered to him with a chilling tone.
"If you dare touch or even stare at him again like before, I can guarantee that you will lose both of your eyeballs."
The pervert backed away from the two, frightened by the cold man's fierce protection of Yohan. As he moved away, his large body bumped into other passengers in the elevator who cursed him for it.
Meanwhile, the cold man scowled in disgust at the pervert before realizing that he was still holding onto Yohan. As he looked down at the face of the person in his arms, a face that seemed to attract everyone's attention, the man couldn't help but feel an overwhelming desire to protect this beautiful individual. At the same time, however, there was also a sense of irritation brewing within him, one that he couldn't quite comprehend or explain.
Both Yohan and the man were lost in their own thoughts, unsure of what to do as they stood motionless with one another. Neither one made a move to escape from the embrace. But just in time, the man came back to his senses when they reached their floor. He immediately let go of Yohan before stepping out and leaving him behind.
Yohan was left behind in a daze, almost missing his exit as he stumbled out just before the doors closed shut. He grumbled to himself in annoyance, why did that cold man take advantage of him like that? Hugging him without warning but then not even reminding him when they arrived on their floor.
As Yohan briskly walked towards his room, he noticed that the man was standing in front of a door opposite to his own room. It seemed like he wanted to talk with Yohan about something, mumbling softly under his breath.
The man appeared upset - he wanted to warn Yohan about the perverted man and make sure he stayed safe. But at the same time, he didn't want it to seem like he was showing off or trying too hard. His words became almost inaudible and unclear as a result, despite him just wanting to say "you be careful with that perverted man."
Yohan strained to hear what he was saying, catching only a few words here and there.
"... you... perverted man..."
As the cold man finished speaking, he quickly disappeared into his room leaving Yohan standing alone with his mouth agape.
Wait, just a minute... did that guy just call me a pervert?!
