Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie

Chapter 645: Consider It Tit for Tat

That’s fine.

He was now the very image of someone who couldn’t even afford a meal.

Qin Nanyu’s dark eyes narrowed slightly as he observed the waiter withdraw his gaze from his battered car. Looking up to meet his eyes, Qin Nanyu promptly parted his lips, "I’m looking for someone, for my wife. She just arrived with a friend not long ago. Her name is Ji Weitian."

"There are no reservations under the name Ji among today’s guests..." the waiter said, leafing through the reservation list with a look of suspicion.

Qin Nanyu immediately came to his senses and corrected himself, "The reservation should have been made by her friend. Check to see if there’s a Mr. Leng named Leng Jian. He’s the one who invited us for dinner."

"There is a Mr. Leng who reserved a table, and he has just gone in," the waiter confirmed and the way he looked at Qin Nanyu improved somewhat.

Primarily it was because of his face; he was exceptionally captivating.

Even though his car did not look like much, with his good looks, he didn’t seem like someone who couldn’t afford a meal.

It was Qin Nanyu’s first visit to this restaurant; instead of wasting time to find his way, he directly asked the waiter, "This is my first time here, and I’m not familiar with the surroundings. Could you please show me the way?"

As he spoke, he took out a few banknotes from his pocket and handed them to the waiter.

With the tip in hand, the waiter’s demeanor, which had previously been lukewarm towards him, suddenly warmed up.

Forgetting all about his inconspicuous car, the waiter immediately led the way to the front, guiding Qin Nanyu.

They passed through the main hall and eventually arrived at the private room reserved for VIPs.

Qin Nanyu followed behind the waiter, subtly scrutinizing this fine dining restaurant.

He noticed that the entire restaurant’s layout was meticulously arranged; both privacy and atmosphere were top-notch.

Back when he was studying at Jiangcheng University, he spent all his time competing and conducting experiments. Often, he would eat in the university canteen or casually order boxed lunches, never noticing such a distinctive restaurant near the university town.

Soon, the waiter brought him to the private room where Leng Jian and Ji Weitian were.

Just as the waiter was about to knock on the door for him, Qin Nanyu stretched out his hand and stopped him, "They don’t know I’ve arrived yet. I want to give them a surprise. You can go on with your duties."

As he spoke, Qin Nanyu took out a few more banknotes from his pocket and handed them to the waiter.

It was rare for the waiter to receive such a large tip all at once. He couldn’t stop smiling and was more than willing to do as Qin Nanyu asked.

After pocketing the money, he left with a farewell remark, "If you need anything, just call for me at the front desk," and then he turned and left without a second word.

Qin Nanyu was now alone in the hallway.

Certain that Leng Jian and Ji Weitian were in the private room separated from him by just one door, Qin Nanyu felt no urgency to knock.

He reached into his pocket, took out a pack of cigarettes, and calmly lit one for himself.

The white smoke soon rose in front of him, blurring his features.

He didn’t know why he was feeling tense.

Seeing the layout of the restaurant and thinking about her secret meeting with Leng Jian under the guise of deceit, Qin Nanyu’s eyes became deep and unfathomable.

He trusted her.

But he still didn’t want to hear what she had said to Leng Jian.

If she truly harbored resentment against him and wanted to conspire with Lu Jing against him, he would rather remain ignorant.

Falling into her trap would be just fine.

Consider it recompense for past deeds.
