But she had already made up her mind that she would definitely treat everyone to this meal.
Humming a song, Yin Lin picked out clothes from the wardrobe and finally chose a very ladylike white dress.
In fact, Yin Lin didn't own many clothes. Although her family was middle class in the tower, they were just barely able to make ends meet.
The luxurious clothes and pomp were the exclusive domain of the wealthy and aristocratic class, those of the fourth and fifth tiers.
Just then, the doorbell rang. Yin Lin opened the door, and Su Jie stood at the door holding a red rose, but his expression froze when he saw Yin Lin's appearance.
"Honey, where are you going?"
Yin Lin said, "Mr. Yang said he would treat me to a meal as a token of his gratitude."
But in reality, he had already joined the Explorers Legion, so my permanent residency permit was not used.
So I'm planning to treat him to a meal this time.
As she spoke, Yin Lin added, "Don't overthink it, it's just a simple meal."
Su Jie had learned from his previous lesson, and even though he was filled with hatred, he still wore a smile on his face.
"Don't worry, darling, I don't believe Yang Cheng would believe you. Why would I overthink things? But come back soon."
"Okay!"
After leaving behind a single sentence, Yin Lin packed her things and turned to leave, while Su Jie behind her wore a ferocious expression, crumpling the roses in his hand into a pulp.
Tulip Restaurant, First Floor, First Section.
This is one of the few restaurants on the first floor with a proper style; it's simply a place to eat.
And they sell proper dishes, not those random meats transported from outside the tower.
Of course, the price is also very expensive; a single meal can cost the equivalent of a month's salary for most ordinary people on the first floor.
When Yin Lin arrived, Yang Cheng was already waiting for her. Yin Lin quickly said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Yang, I'm a little late."
Yang Cheng pulled out a chair in a gentlemanly manner, smiled and said, "It's alright, I just arrived early. Take a look at these and see if there's anything you like to eat."
The two chatted while ordering food. Yang Cheng's polite manners and humorous remarks made Yin Lin laugh heartily.
Although Yang Cheng usually wears a blank, expressionless face, it is difficult to discern any emotion from his expression.
But that's because Yang Cheng wore the mask for far too long in order to take revenge back then, and once he took it off, he didn't want to wear it again.
However, when Yang Cheng put on the mask again, he still performed flawlessly, as if he were truly a gentleman with elegant manners and humorous speech.
Just like when he was at the hotel, no one could tell how much hatred was buried in the heart of this man who always had a sunny smile.
Yin Lin has almost forgotten the fierce look on Yang Cheng's face when he was indifferently killing people in the wilderness.
Even old friends, with their hair turned white, still hold their swords.
The thoughts of the human heart are the most difficult to fathom.
After the meal, Yang Cheng suggested that he personally take Yin Lin home, and Yin Lin did not object.
However, Yang Cheng led Yin Lin down a side path, and after turning a corner, Yin Lin suddenly felt something was wrong.
But just as Yin Lin was about to react, a cold smile suddenly appeared on Yang Cheng's lips: "Wait a minute, I'll show you something interesting."
In that instant, Yin Lin felt as if the gentle and gentlemanly man from before had vanished, replaced by what seemed to be the mutated ferocious beasts of the wilderness.
She tried to make a move, but found that she was trapped by invisible qi all around her, and she couldn't even make a sound.
Yang Cheng stepped out from around the corner and collided head-on with Su Jie, who had been following him.
A flicker of panic crossed Su Jie's face, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Yang Cheng! Where did you take Yin Lin?"
Yang Cheng said with a half-smile, "Young Master Su, Yin Lin isn't your fiancée yet. Don't you think you're being too nosy?"
Su Jie said coldly, "Yang Cheng! Do you really think I can't do anything to you?"
Even if you join the Guardians, it won't help! You have no foothold in the tower, and your identity is unclear.
"You might be a spy sent by some other force outside the tower! With my connections and resources, if I wanted to take you down, you wouldn't stand a chance!"
Upon hearing Su Jie's words, Yang Cheng immediately showed a slightly panicked look, then coldly snorted with a hint of anxiety: "Nonsense! Slander!"
"I'm just a wandering vagabond with no connections, how could I possibly be a spy sent by another faction?"
Seeing Yang Cheng's expression, Su Jie suddenly realized something and was overjoyed!
He never expected that his casual remark would lead to such a lucky guess, and that he would correctly identify Yang Cheng!
