Chapter 242: Intentional Affection

"Am I that annoying?"

Huo Tian shouted as he grabbed Bai Ran, who was about to go upstairs.

Bai Ran turned around with faint displeasure on her face and said, "No, it's just that I've been too busy recently. I really don't have time to eat with you."

"No matter how busy you are, you can't possibly skip your lunch! This is an excuse!" Huo Tian still held Bai Ran tightly and refused to let go. "I don't know where you went or why you're only back now. It's almost lunchtime."

"You said I just came back, so I must continue working," Bai Ran replied unhappily. She looked at Huo Tian's hand. "Let go of me. I'm going upstairs first."

"You don't even have time to eat with me?" Huo Tian's voice was a little aggrieved, but he was still unwilling to let go.

"You said you would respect me." Bai Ran's tone was cold, and her eyes were still fixed on the hand on her arm.

"I…" Huo Tian let go immediately.
