“Ziqi…”
Qin Youxuan’s stunned gaze slowly shifted to Meng Ziqi.
In all this time, Meng Ziqi hadn’t changed much.
Delicate eyebrows and eyes, a petite nose, fair skin…
Her appearance wasn’t magnificent, yet she always had an elegant gentleness characteristic of a well-bred lady. Gentle but not weak, graceful but not pretentious.
She was the kind of lady whose etiquette permeated her very bones.
Qin Youxuan caught sight of Jin Chenye beside her, her cat-like eyes blinked in surprise.
She had never imagined that he would be dining with Meng Ziqi.
Not long ago, the media had widely reported their impending marriage. Was it their intent to confirm the media’s speculation now, or was it to land in headlines once again, to cover up previous negative reports?
With a puzzled look, Qin Youxuan glanced at Jin Chenye, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
“I just returned to the country, and brother Ye said the beefsteak here was authentic, so he brought me here. Who would have thought we’d bump into you just after you said you were busy!”
Upon hearing Meng Ziqi’s words, Qin Youxuan recalled Dan Hanjie’s recommendation earlier.
It seemed that the restaurant [Tulip] was really famous, even the seldom returning Jin Chenye knew about it.
She became the most ignorant one again!
“I wondered why you were always too busy to have meals with me. Turns out you had already made plans with this handsome man. Aren’t you going to introduce us?” Meng Ziqi, hesitated for a moment, and then stood up and walked towards Qin Youxuan.
Qin Youxuan was stunned before she remembered Dan Hanjie sitting next to her. As she became rigid, she felt his hand tighten around her waist. Her nerves heightened to the point where even her breathing felt strained.
As she lifted her head to look at Dan Hanjie, she saw his face had turned dark.
“Ziqi, I…”
“Your friend?” Dan Hanjie’s cold interruption came before Qin Youxuan could explain. His voice, neither heavy nor light, seemed inscrutable.
The moment he heard Qin Youxuan speak, he remembered her phone’s incoming call display. He glanced at Jin Chenye and guessed most of the situation.
His question was purely rhetorical.
“Yes.” Qin Youxuan obediently nodded.
She never thought she would run into Meng Ziqi here, under these circumstances. And then seeing Jin Chenye by her side…
This situation, it was as crazy as a soap opera!
What scared her the most was that she couldn’t figure out what was going on in Dan Hanjie’s mind.
If he were to pick a fight at this time, she would be burned in the crossfire!
“Since it’s such a coincidence, why don’t we change the venue and eat together?” As the words fell from Dan Hanjie’s mouth, he glanced at the restaurant manager who was standing beside them, stupefied.
The restaurant manager immediately regained his senses and respectfully added, “Mr. Jie, the private room has always been reserved for you, right this way, please!”
Then, Dan Hanjie finally withdrew his gaze, satisfied. Noticing Jin Chenye had been staring at Qin Youxuan the whole time, a trace of coldness shot through his eyes.
“Together!” Qin Youxuan was taken aback and looked incredulously at Dan Hanjie.
When did he become so generous?
He seemed ready to devour Jin Chenye just moments ago, now he’s extended an invitation!
The crux of the matter was, while he welcomed the idea, she did not.
Especially after suspecting that her abduction might be connected to Jin Chenye…
“I’ve not seen you for a long time either. Your return to the country seemed so rushed, and you didn’t even mention it. I have lots of things I want to ask you. Brother Ye, what do you think?”
Meng Ziqi smoothly picked up the conversation, oblivious to Qin Youxuan’s silent exclamation…
