Chapter 19 - Pretend Not to See Him and Cross Over His Long Legs (2/2)

Nan Zhi carefully moved her eyes from the man’s thighs to look at his face. He was holding an unlit cigar between his mouth, his long fingers playing with a small silver blowtorch. From time to time, he would flip the lid off and blue flames burst out, reflecting the well-defined handsome contours of his face as it became more dark and unpredictable.

His head was slightly lowered and his eyelashes looked to be even longer than a woman’s. Under his high nose bridge, his s.e.xy, scarlet thin lips were pressed together dangerously.

Just after she stepped out of the elevator, the door to the elevator on her right side opened and more than a dozen black-attired bodyguards came out. They stood neatly in two rows and a moment later, a tall figure came out.

Nan Zhi looked at the deep, narrow eyes under the man’s short hair and her heart suddenly tightened again.

The appearance of the man brought in a h.o.a.rd of women who had been coming in and out of the clubhouse. They stood by the entrance, gossiping as they marveled at the man. He was really tall, handsome and very cool. Their ideal type.
