Chapter 40: Disappointed Savior

Perceiving the smoke of a cigarette, Ai Mi withdrew to the large window and gazed out.

Her eyes immediately caught the person smoking and the urge to smoke immediately welled up in her.

She started smoking when she was about seventeen, due to situations her father placed the whole family into.

Each time she wanted to withdraw from the act, other things happened that led to her retaining the cigar. It never went as planned.

She massages her temples gently as she walked back to her desk and grabs a stick. She lits it with the yellow lighter in front of her and stuffed it between her lips.

She felt disengaged from her work and other thoughts except the thought of Haoran.

She remember clearly that she had warned him that night to not step into the office of Zhi Ruo, no matter what. If Bella had not sent a message through the file given to her by Sheng, anything could have happened to Haoran.

Yet he's too dumb to get that!
