Bai Xiaoyan seemed to have grabbed a lifeline.
Her approach clearly had some personal motives.
The relationship between Bai Xiaoyan and Wen Linyu was not familiar, at most they had met twice, and that was work-related.
Her action was simply an attempt to have some physical contact with Wen Linyu.
She understood very well that men as a species have a tendency to pity the weak. How many men can really resist a beautiful woman who appears tearful and throws herself into their arms?
Wen Linyu had not anticipated such an outcome at all, and foolishly stared at the person in his arms, completely unable to respond.
Bai Xiaoyan lifted her head from his embrace, her eyes filled with tears, mistily gazing at him.
"Mr. Wen, thank goodness you're here, I... I was so scared."
At that moment, Wen Linyu finally reacted.
After assisting Bai Xiaoyan up, he quickly released his hold and stepped back a pace.
Once a distance was maintained, Wen Linyu asked, "What happened?"
