Chapter 39 - Packing
The only instructions Qin Bulu gave her regarding her meeting with Wen Xiangsheng were to have a casual chat without touching on sensitive topics, and then return to tell him the information.
Honestly, Shi Feiye had only written about this kind of undercover work in her novels. Even if she had thought back to her previous life, she would never have imagined that she would have such a day.
Wen Xiangsheng had invited her, so naturally, it was Wen Xiangsheng who had chosen the location. Shi Feiye told herself that they were just going to eat something delicious, and she would just treat herself to a feast. After all, she really didn't know anything, and the place Wen Xiangsheng was treating her to couldn't be a street stall.
As expected, Wen Xiangsheng's dinner was at a famous coffee shop in the city. When Shi Feiye received the notification, she did some research in the evening and found that the cheapest drink was over 200 yuan.
Over 200 for a cup of coffee? Come on, when has Shi Feiye ever been so extravagant?
On the day of the appointment, Shi Feiye dressed herself up nicely. Although she was bound to be ridiculed later, at least on the surface, she wouldn't be criticized for being unkempt.
However, she never expected that Wen Xiangsheng's first words to her would be to complain:
"Aye, I know you're feeling bad. You've always been strong-willed, but now it's come to this. I'm afraid your makeup isn't any good anymore. Why bother trying to look good in front of me? Even if you're not wearing any makeup, I won't look down on you."
Hehe, Shi Feiye just wanted to say that if she wasn't prettier than Wen Xiangsheng, she would have really thought that Wen Xiangsheng was doing this for her own good.
It's not easy for this person to say such words and still look worried and concerned about her.
"Sister Wen, you're joking. No matter how difficult life gets, I can't give up on pursuing beauty. After all, I'm beautiful, and it would be a waste if I didn't wear makeup. We can only stay young for a few days, so we shouldn't waste even a single day. Besides, with my natural abilities, if I don't make myself beautiful, I'd be wasting God's favor on me." Since the other party had handed the knife over first, Shi Feiye, who admitted she wasn't someone who could be easily manipulated, immediately stabbed the other party in the heart.
Wen Xiangsheng maintained his smile, suppressed the urge to beat Shi Feiye to death, and pulled Shi Feiye close, kissing her affectionately:
"Okay, okay, our Ah Ye is the most beautiful. Let's go. I know you've been in a bad mood lately. Let's go have some tea and chat. I can't do anything else, but I can still listen to your complaints. If you pour out all your troubles, you'll naturally feel better."
Being guided by the waiter to the private room with the best view, Shi Feiye sighed inwardly, "This place is indeed a place for wealthy people. It is definitely better than those small teahouses. This large courtyard alone can instantly overshadow a large area. The level of design is obviously masterful."
Wen Xiangsheng saw Shi Feiye staring at the yard, thinking she was thinking about her past life of luxury. She sneered in her heart, but her face was gentle: "Aye, what do you want to drink?"
Shi Feiye came back to her senses in an instant, her eyes brightening up as she opened her mouth to name a bunch of things, all of which were the famous specialties of this restaurant that she had looked up online. Wen Xiangsheng was shocked for a moment, then immediately returned to normal: "Aye, you ordered so much, will you be able to finish the food and drinks later?"
Knowing that Wen Xiangsheng was suspicious of her sudden loss of dignity, and even looking like she hadn't eaten anything, Shi Feiye didn't try to hide the fact: "If you can't finish it, just pack it up. It's not a big deal."
