Chapter 23 - Chapter 23 Sitting in His Seat, Drinking His Drink

The moment she stood up, she couldn't help but glance at the latte on the table.

It was still steaming hot.

But he hadn't taken a single sip.

Seeing the man next to her was really about to leave, Ran Xiangsi quickly stood up and called out to him.

"Are you really going just like that?"

Xing Chen didn't turn around, he just halted his steps.

He stood there with his back to her.

His hands nonchalantly in the pockets of his pants, in a clean white shirt, with a slightly loosened collar...

As if a prince had walked out of a fairy tale.

The moment Xing Chen stopped, Ran Xiangsi held her breath for a moment, waiting for his answer.

She really didn't understand him...

Went to all this trouble to threaten her to come out, only to sit for a while?

The questions he asked, she hadn't answered a single one seriously...

How could he just leave?

Something felt off.

Does she not want him to leave?

As soon as that thought emerged, Ran Xiangsi rolled her eyes. Not want him to leave? Impossible!!

She would love for this jerk to leave!

Just as Ran Xiangsi thought that, Xing Chen, who was standing not far away, really started to walk, leaving calmly and gracefully.

He didn't leave a single word, left so effortlessly.

It was as if the person behind him had nothing to do with him.

Ran Xiangsi paused for a moment, then quickly withdrew her gaze and sat down angrily in the chair.

On the table, the latte was still hot.

Ran Xiangsi pouted, not knowing why she felt a bit angry inside?

The latte she ordered, that arrogant guy didn't take a single sip...

Looked down on her?

What an arrogant jerk!!

Actually, Ran Xiangsi didn't know that the moment she turned around and sat down, Xing Chen, who had almost walked away, suddenly slowed his pace.

He looked back over his shoulder.

His gaze easily caught the slender figure in the distance.

The World Trade Square's outdoor café, especially the second floor of the sky garden, had the best lighting.

The whole café was surrounded by flowers and greenery, giving it a unique charm in this fast-paced city culture.

In the sunlight, Ran Xiangsi was sitting alone in the seat where Xing Chen had just been, drinking the latte that Xing Chen hadn't touched...

Xing Chen squinted his eyes slightly, his pure black pupils dilating involuntarily. (PS: Studies show that the pupils of male animals dilate when they see a female they fancy.)

Sitting in his seat, drinking his drink?

That latte was originally his.

And he had no idea what that strange girl was thinking, she didn't even drink the latte properly, instead, she bit the edge of the cup, not letting go for a long time.

Xing Chen had received good gentlemanly education since he was young, and actions like Ran Xiangsi's, lacking any elegance, would normally be completely beneath Xing Chen's notice.

But for some reason, there wasn't a trace of disdain in his eyes.

On the contrary...

He suddenly remembered the kiss they shared in bed last night.

Her taste was sweet. Her lips, soft. Her breath, passionate...

It all seemed to linger in his mind...

Once again, he was staring blankly, only to be brought back to his senses by the vibration of his phone.

Looking down to pick up his phone, Xing Chen also retracted his gaze, and walked towards the sports car parked by the street.

Picking up the call, "Hello, William, welcome back to Su City! I heard you got married? I've booked a spot at 'Su Ya', come over quickly, I'm waiting for you!"

It was Lou Xining calling.

Xing Chen had lived in Su City for a few years as a child, and Lou Xining was his good buddy.
