"You're very humorous," said Jiang Ning expressionlessly. "But I don't like such jokes.”
He continued to press the help button and cursed the building management in his heart. They were so enthusiastic about collecting management fees but they were so slow when something happened to the lift.
Amelia continued sitting on the floor and looked up at Jiang Ning as she slowly relaxed.
She suddenly felt that it was quite fun to be stuck in a small and private space with an interesting man whom she could tease.
"This isn't a joke," said Amelia. "I'm quite interested in you. Besides, I'm sure I'm even more charming than your wife."
She was full of self-confidence.
This sort of confidence wasn't put on and wasn't a pretense after years of training. This was a confidence that only those in high society and women from truly wealthy families could exude.
Jiang Ning glanced at her. First he looked at her face, then her upper body, then finally the long and straight legs that were now seated casually on the floor.
"Have you heard of this ancient proverb?"
"Which one?"
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” replied Jiang Ning.
He pulled his phone out to find that there was no signal at all.
Jiang Ning turned to look at this woman in front of him. He shrugged and laughed, "You've really made very good arrangements. How long do you intend to stay here with me?"
"I just want to chat with you." Amelia reached a hand out to pat the space in front of her as she smiled brightly and said, "Sit down."
She wanted Jiang Ning to sit across from her and didn't seem to care that she was wearing a short skirt. And she didn't think Jiang Ning would be able to see anything under such dim lighting anyway.
But so what if he could see anything?
