Chu Xinian seemed to notice her embarrassment and quietly stayed by her side, allowing her to rest for a moment.
Qin Yiren ignored him, not intending to appreciate his kindness.
After all, if it weren't for this guy, she would've taken the elevator by now and been sitting on her mint-green sofa, without needing to go through these troubles!
The two of them stood quietly for a few minutes, then Qin Yiren walked towards the stairs without a word, only to be suddenly picked up horizontally by the man at her side.
After several months, this was the only moment that could be considered intimate contact.
Qin Yiren was startled and instinctively raised her hands to hug the man's neck, but once she realized what she was doing, she calmly moved her hands away.
Anyway, he insisted on coming along, and twelve floors were indeed a challenge for her at this point, so she figured this was his way of apologizing for his unreasonable request.
