“Do you like it here?” Qingcang asked, noticing the look of wonder on her face. With a smile on h is face, he walked out of the sea of flowers. “The steak here is very famous. I’d like for you to try it, too.” The way he said this made it sound as if he wanted to pamper, and it was enough for Yan Xin to hesitate for a bit.
“Mm, I suppose,” she said stiffly, She only wanted to make money, honestly, and as she looked at the dumb smile on this man’s face, she didn’t know how to deal with it.
There was a long table in the middle of the room, covered by a white tablecloth. Waiters were standing on both sides of the table politely. It was rather stifling; as soon as Yan Xin showed even the slightest bit of discomfort, a waiter would appear and ask if she needed anything. This was the first time she’d ever felt so exhausted just by having a meal.
For a long time, the two of them just ate quietly. In her mind, there was no such thing as repaying someone out of gratitude, and she sighed slightly.
“What’s wrong?” Qingcang suddenly asked, having been paying attention to her.
By now, the tableware and food had all been taken away and replaced by a small plate of fruit.
Hearing his words, Yan Xin said, “No, it’s nothing. I was just thinking that you don’t look like you’re in a sorry state today.”
“Haha, you…” Qingcang felt that the person in front of him was completely different from what he had imagined. How could she be so interesting? “Did you want something to happen to me?”
Yan Xin was stunned when he said this with an innocent expression, but she shook her head in response. “No, it’s good that nothing happened to you.” Inwardly, she added, ‘If something had happened, it would be even better. At the very least, I could get a reward out of it.”
“This is a cell phone,” Qingcang suddenly said, taking out a purple cell phone from his pocket and placing it in front of her. “I noticed that you don’t have one, so contacting you has been difficult.”
“Ah…” As she looked at the small cell phone, Yan Xin did not understand why he would give her such a thing, but she did not reject it nonetheless.
After stowing it in her bag, she said, “I’m done eating. Can I go now?” Her fingers brushed against the few magic sticks in her bag. She wanted to find the materials to refine her pills.
Somehow, she had the distinct feeling that an opportunity might appear soon, so she had to hurry.
QingCang nodded. “Yes. Let me bring you to a place.” He took her hand and pulled her along with him. Yan Xin was surprised at this turn of events, but didn’t pull her hand away.
“Where are you going?” she asked.
“To buy clothes,” he answered. He’d noticed that all three times they’d met, she had always been wearing a dark-colored long robe, looking much like an old antique.
“Ah.” It was then that Yan Xin remembered her so-called father had asked Mrs. Yan to give her a few sets of Yan Zhen’s clothes before leaving the house in the morning. But at the time, Yan Xin had simply smiled and left the house.
The expression on Father Yan’s face at that time had been utterly hilarious.
However, right now, since she was on a date of sorts, she had no idea that the house was in a mess.
“Mom, why did you take those clothes from me?” Yan Zhen looked betrayed, the rims of her eyes reddened and swollen. “I spent a lot of effort to buy these clothes, and you want to give them to that b*tch to wear?!” she complained.
“I thought you weren’t going to wear them? Alright then, Mother will help you put them back.” After saying this, Madam Yan quickly stood and picked up the clothes on the sofa.
Yan Zhen looked at her brother innocently. “Brother, look at that B*tch. She doesn’t even put our family in her eyes. You can’t let her go, okay?”
Her brother nodded in response. “Okay, I got it. Wait for my good news here.” After saying that, he immediately stood up and left the house.
On the road, even though he wasn’t saying anything, Liu Qingcang was in a good mood as he held onto Yan Xin’s hand.
When he was about to cross the road with Yan Xin, he heard a scream. He looked up at the sidewalk light. “Green light!” he cried.
“Be careful!” Yan Xin, who was one step faster than him, grabbed the magic wand in her bag and chanted a silent incantation. It was then that Qingcang, still holding her hand, realized that the car that was rushing toward them was suddenly slowing down.
When the two of them stood on the side of the road, the car even turned a corner and crashed into the guardrail.
“Look, I saved you again.” The accident made Yan Xin extremely excited. When she thought about how her wallet was about to bulge with more money, she smiled until her eyes had narrowed into crescent moons..
