Chapter 736: Followed by Someone
A bet? What kind of bet?"I bet you’ll eventually give in and throw yourself in my arms." He raised his eyebrow playfully, but his damned confidence made his words infuriating.
Instantly, Wen Duoduo was both angry and embarrassed: "Let me tell you, Lu Jinyan, I absolutely won’t! Absolutely not!"
She repeated it twice just to reinforce her assurance.
Lu Jinyan merely chuckled, not teasing further.
He knew well when to stop, leaving some suspense, as knowing when to pull back could achieve the desired effect.
He stood up and said, "The movie is over, let’s end today’s date here. I’m heading back now, no need to see me out."
After speaking, he picked up the jacket from the sofa, put it on, and walked towards the door.
As his large hand gripped the door handle, he paused, turning back slightly, giving Wen Duoduo a meaningful look.
Then, waving his hand, he said, "Good night."
Wen Duoduo had dark lines on her forehead.
After those words, how was she supposed to sleep after he just left like that?
It seemed that it was going to be another sleepless night.
.........
After staying in Country S for three whole weeks, Song Yinyin just couldn’t stand the local cuisine anymore; she craved Country Z’s delicacies. But where could she find places that serve Country Z’s food?
Thankfully, Lu Jihan knew about some international supermarkets where one could buy instant noodles and the like, barely satisfying Song Yinyin’s cravings.
Hence, he went to the largest international supermarket nearby while Song Yinyin stayed at the hotel because her ankle injury hadn’t fully healed.
Unexpectedly, by sheer coincidence, he ran into Shana at the supermarket.
No longer were there signs of Amu by Shana’s side; he was probably still undergoing punishment.
When Shana saw Lu Jihan, she paused momentarily, then snorted angrily and turned to walk proudly away in another direction.
This was Shana’s first time going out without her guards; she had snuck out secretly.
Normally at this time, she would have guards surrounding her at all times for protection, but they were such an eyesore that she took the opportunity to slip out unnoticed.
She snuck out to buy things for Amu, who was still recovering from injuries and had difficulty moving, needing some daily essentials.
Of course, Shana hadn’t informed Amu beforehand.
So Amu had no idea that Shana’s first visit to a large supermarket like this was actually for him.
Holding bags of various sizes, Shana arrived at the underground parking lot, her peripheral vision caught sight of a figure lingering suspiciously and seemingly approaching her.
Startled, she turned around alertly to check out the man coming towards her.
He was a man wearing a baseball cap, but with a mask on, Shana couldn’t guess his age, nor see his face; only his chilling eyes staring at her sent a shiver down her spine.
Feeling the danger, her heart raced with panic, quickening her steps towards her Maserati.
But before she could reach the car door, a shadow suddenly sprang out from a dark corner beside her.
Scaring her into a scream.
"Ah——"
At the same time, two tall figures emerged from behind a pillar in front, one of them being the baseball cap-wearing man who had been following Shana.
Step by step, they approached her, exuding danger.
