Chapter 1176 Little Sophia, Take Care!
"No, thank you. I gotta go. Bye!" Sophia got out from under Herring's arm and ran into the lift.
Herring smirked as he watched Sophia leave. He turned and waved at Colin.
"Phew!" Sophia felt relieved as she stepped into the lift. However, Herring squeezed in before the door closed.
Sophia felt helpless.
"Little Sophia, what shall we eat?" Herring kept his distance from Sophia when Colin was not around. She couldn't understand this sudden affection.
Before Sophia could decline, the phone rang. Oh dear! Colin!
Sophia answered the phone timidly, "Hello?"
"Hello what? You don't want Herring to know it's me calling, do you?" Colin was irritated. Each time he called her, Sophia would address him as Colin or at least, as Mr. Li.
But this time, with Herring beside her, she didn't. Obviously, she didn't want Herring to know that he was calling.
Sophia had no choice. Fine! "Mr. Li, how can I help you?" Sophia knew that Herring would make more trouble if she mentioned Colin's name. She was hoping to avoid another scene.
And she was right! As soon as Herring heard, he got closer to Sophia, "Little Sophia, I know a place that serves great food. We're going there. After dinner, we can get some dessert and watch a movie or go for a walk. What do you think?"
Even though Sophia covered the phone, Colin could hear Herring's voice clearly.
Sophia was anxious at that moment. She lowered her voice, "Herring, I'm on the phone. We can decide where to go later."
Only Herring would not agree, "Little Sophia, why are you so afraid of Colin? We don't need his approval to go on a date. He doesn't like you after all, does he?"
Sophia thought about what Herring had said... And he was right to remind her that Colin did not seem to like her. What was she nervous about?
Sophia held the phone up to her ear, "Hello, Mr. Li, what can I do for yo

misread it. There's nothing wrong with it."
Sophia stared at him, "Stop smoking! Aren't you afraid that your lungs will turn black?"
"They are already black." He had been smoking for over a decade. How could his lungs remain normal?
"Anything else? Otherwise I'm leaving."
"Why? Is Herring still waiting for you downstairs?" Colin blew smoke in Sophia's face.
Sophia choked and coughed.
"Mr. Li, I'm already off duty. I don't have to report everything to you. And it's my private life." Colin didn't like her anyway. Why should she bother to explain?
"Sophia Lo!" Colin stood up and kicked away the chair. He walked towards Sophia, cigarette balanced in his right hand. He tucked his left hand in his pocket.
Afraid of Colin's temper Sophia ran to the door.
At that time, getting away from Colin was her top priority. The farther, the better.
However, he caught her, "What are you running away from? I'm not gonna eat you."
Sophia shook her head, but Colin kept pushing, "You don't want to stay with me, do you?"
Sophia felt that Colin would throttle her had she dared to nod or say yes at that moment.
"Mr. Li, what do you want?" Sophia's heart beat faster as Colin come closer to her.
"Stay away from Herring."
