Shi Lan stared at him without blinking, the Soul-Destroying Nail in her mind beating more and more excitedly as he got closer.
“This beautiful lady wants to get to know you,” the man said, stepping aside to let Shi Lan pass.
Yu Ze was taken aback when he saw Shi Lan, his usually cold and aloof face showing surprise.
Shi Lan's cheeks flushed, and she stepped forward. "Hello, my name is Shi Lan."
Yu Ze looked at the hand extended in front of him and remained silent in thought.
Upon seeing this, the man chuckled and said, "Young lady, you've got the wrong idea. Yuze never interacts with women."
Shi Lan blushed, glared at the man shyly, and awkwardly moved her fingers, wanting to take them back.
The man wasn't angry when she glared at him; instead, he thought her wide-eyed expression resembled that of an annoyed cat, making him want to tease her again and again.
"Oh, don't be angry. He's not chivalrous, but I'm here for you. Let's get acquainted. My name is Mu Fan," the man said, reaching out to shake her slender hand.
Yu Ze continued to stare at the slender, slightly calloused fingers. Before Mu Fan's hand covered them, he suddenly reached out and forcefully opened Mu Fan's hand, gently grasping the trembling, cold fingers.

She just didn't want to do this in front of Mu Fan, because it would make her feel embarrassed.
Before she could speak, the demanding Lisa walked over. For the sake of her cake and her two months' salary, Shi Lan decided to focus on the immediate problem first.
"Mr. Mu, may I have the form now?"
When his name was called, Mu Fan snapped out of his daze and blankly handed over the money and receipts he had prepared beforehand.
Shi Lan nodded to Ning Yuze and silently said, "I'll wait for you outside."
Ning Yuze paused for a moment, then remained silent.
A splash of bright red fabric appeared by the door. Shi Lan smiled at the two of them and disappeared into the night.
