To say that she wasn't shocked would be a lie. An Nan was so shocked she forgot how to react, with the man's words continuously replaying in her mind — love at first sight? She'd never considered that a possibility.
However, it's clear they weren't on the same wavelength. An Nan thought their first meeting was at the 'Champs Elysees', and Lin Mubai didn't clarify.
Waiting for an answer was always torturous, but even such torment, he was willing to endure.
Finally, after a quarter of an hour, he heard her speak again, in a soft, undisturbed voice: "What if I still want to punch you?"
No tears or tantrums, no angry order for him to leave, nor did she ignore him. She just wanted to punch him. A smile curled once more at his lips, knowing he wouldn't be sentenced to death; with that, he was relieved.
An Nan's voice continued to ring in his ears: "Lin Mubai, stand properly for me."
