Don't tellyou're planning to take the bus with me?" Lucas turned to look at her and nodded. "What? Am I not allowed to do so? n "No, that wasn't what I meant." Melody glanced around and leaned in, lowering her voice. "It's just that you're the president of Rivera Group, so isn't taking the bus a bit beneath you?" Seeing her acting furtively, Lucas narrowed his eyes. "Is there a law saying that people of my status can't take the bus?" "Of course not." Melody straightened herself and decided not to dwell on the fact that he was taking the bus. Melody was, however, secretly pleased. The fact that he was there at least proved that he was not that concerned about Stella.

To Melody's surprise, there were many passengers on the bus. After all, it was not rush hour. The two of them were almost squeezed onto the bus, and Melody found herself pushed into a corner.
She turned to glance at Lucas, who was beside her. He had completely lost the calm demeanor he had just moments ago with a frown plastered on his face.
Melody lowered her gaze, chuckling mischievously. She then teased him in a hushed tone, "What's the matter, Lucas? The life of ordinary folks not suiting you?" It was Lucas' first ttaking a bus, and he had not expected it to be so crowded. The bus was packed to the point that he could not even find a place to stand.

Her cheeks turned red, and she was about to stand up when the person behind her jostled her again, leaving her unable to move. "Um... Sorry about that." In contrast to her embarrassment, Lucas smiled faintly. He reached out to steady her, suddenly feeling that the crowded bus was not as uncomfortable as he thought.
Melody leaned against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat echoing in her ears. Her cheeks involuntarily grew hot.
To prevent her cheeks from getting even hotter, Melody tried to disentangle herself from his embrace. However, it seemed like the other passengers were conspiring against Melody. Everytshe tried to leave Lucas' embrace, someone would push her back into him again.
She could not stand upright at all, and to avoid falling, she had to stay nestled in Lucas' arms throughout the journey.
Lucas' hand gently supported her shoulder exceptionally tenderly.
