Chapter 31 The Coffee Shop
Lately I kept feeling like someone was following me.
I deliberately walked into a coffee shop I often went to.
I found a seat by the window, then ordered an iced Americano.
Soon the door opened again. The person following me walked in.
I took a small sip of my coffee, then stood up and quickly headed for the back door.
I ran out, then circled around to the front again.
Through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, I saw clearly who was following me.
He was wearing a hat and a mask, but I recognized him at once.
It was Shen Yizheng.
I pushed the door open again and walked back into the coffee shop, then sat down across from him.
"Is it fun following me?"
I got straight to the point.
Shen Yizheng looked up. When he saw that I had caught him, he stopped pretending.
"So who exactly are you with?" Shen Yizheng clenched his fists. "I've been following you for so many days and I still couldn't figure it out!"
"Does it matter who I'm with?"
"You don't think you've found someone better, do you?" Shen Yizheng gave a cold laugh. "Let me tell you the truth. All men are the same. They might not even treat you as well as I did."
"Oh, is that so."
I did not care.
"So you might as well choose me. At least I have money."
Shen Yizheng kept trying to raise his stakes.
A message popped up on my phone. I glanced at it.
It was from Lanxi.
I looked up toward the other side of the street. She was standing there waiting for me.
"Shen Yizheng, look over there."
I pointed out the window.
He followed my finger and saw Lanxi.
"Lanxi?"
"Yes." I curved my lips. "Do you know why you never see my girlfriend?"
"Why?"
"I should actually thank you for introducing us," I said slowly. "Because she is my girlfriend now."
I left those words behind and stood up to go.
I did not care about Shen Yizheng's face turning deathly pale behind me.
