The waiter stopped with Gu Yan at the door of the private room at the end of the corridor, politely knocked on the door, "Young master, Miss Gu is here."
There seemed to be a pause inside, and then a voice came out, "Please let Miss Gu in."
"Yes."
The waiter pushed open the door, stepped aside to let Gu Yan in.
Gu Yan walked in unceremoniously and immediately saw the man seated and brewing tea.
The man was backlit, making it difficult to see his features clearly, giving off an unreal, ethereal presence.
Gu Yan had no interest in observing what he looked like; her mood was extremely poor, she just wanted to know the reason behind everything.
The man poured a cup of tea for the teacup in front of him, and another for the empty seat opposite, put down the teapot, then leisurely raised his head to look at Gu Yan.
The man's cold demeanor softened slightly, "You've come, please sit." He gestured to the seat opposite.
