748 The secret guy Ashton
"Stop right there," Huang shouted.
Stopping midway, Ashton gulped in nervousness and turned towards them.
When Huiling tightened her grip around his arm, Huang gestured her not to worry.
"I swear I did not see anything brother Huang, it's very dark here," Ashton lied. He had obviously seen the two of them shamelessly kissing each other in an open place where anyone could see them.
"Listen to me Ash you—"
Cutting him off, Huiling whispered, "Be polite Huang." They had to convince Ashton to keep whatever he saw to himself so being rude to be him wouldn't help.
He sighed and nodded his head. Turning towards Ash, he continued, "Ash whatever you saw, you can't tell anyone about it okay?"
Looking at them, Ashton asked, "You both are together for real or just hooking up for no good reason?"
"We have been dating for the past two months but it's a secret and we haven't told anyone about it so you can't tell anyone," Huiling answered. She didn't want everyone to know about them through a third person. Not only would it hurt others feelings, it wouldn't look good either.
"Why aren't you telling anyone? Do Becca and Qiang know about this?" When she shook her head, he added, "Why didn't you tell them? Aren't they your best friends?"
"I want to but I don't know how they will react when I tell them that I have been dating someone for two months in secret." Pursuing her lips, she asked, "Can you please not tell anyone about it yet?"
Dining area
Sitting down, she started gulping down a big glass of chilled water to calm herself down and to stop thinking about Andrew.
Just then she heard a faint noise coming from the main door. She frowned and jolted up when the noise became louder and distinct. Thinking that someone might be trying to enter her apartment, she picked up a knife that was lying on the dining table and slowly made her way towards the door so she could see who it was through the peephole.
Gulping in nervousness, she tightened her grip around the knife and stopped three to four meters away from the door. It was already past two in the morning and she was having a feeling that whoever it was, that person had no good intentions.
Just then the door suddenly opened and someone entered the apartment.
Without looking at the person who had just intruded her place, she jumped at him all ready to stab him with the knife.
Grabbing her wrist, the man frowned, "Are you fucking crazy?"
"You? What the hell are you doing here?" She shouted.
Taking the knife from her hand, Andrew frowned deeper, "Were you trying to stab me with a butter knife? Seriously?" Without waiting for her reply, he tossed the butter knife aside and let go off her wrist. "Didn't your dad or brother give you a gun or a killing knife to protect yourself?"
"You—"
Cutting her off, he added, "And do you have any idea how bad this building's security is? Sure it's a high class society where only rich people can afford to buy and live but trust me when I say that a slum is far more secure than this building. I mean at least in a slum, you have neighbors watching over you all the time unlike here."
"So you just entered the building? Did you bribe the security guard?" She snapped.
"You mean that man who is sleeping like a pig?" Andrew chuckled and made his way towards the couch. "You see there was no need to bribe him and thanks to his loud snoring, I am very sure that no one heard my footsteps either."
