After hanging up the phone, Huo Lin felt something was off, and he looked at Jiang Zhu with suspicion.
Jiang Zhu panicked and hurriedly explained, "Master Huo, don't worry! My method will definitely work. The young mistress never said she missed you before, but she just said it. What does that prove? She's starting to care about you!"
"Hmm." Huo Lin was in a good mood and could indeed feel the change in the woman's attitude.
...
...
On her way back, Xun Ting suddenly saw three familiar figures in the coffee shop.
That was Su Mengmeng and her search for her parents.
She instinctively and cautiously approached, took out a hat from the bag, put it on, pulled it down, and sat down at the table next to them.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. I don't even care about a nobody like Xun Ting! Let her have some time to be happy, she won't be so cocky after a while!"
"Mengmeng, you have to be careful. I've heard that Huo Lin might help you because of his ambiguous relationship with Master Huo."
"A man like Huo Lin only plays around with Xun Ting at most. This time, I'm not only going to deal with Xun Ting, but I'm also going to make that man Huo Lin fall at my feet!"
The conversation whispered in his ear made Xun Ting doubt again. Could Su Mengmeng really be Xun Mengmeng?
A waiter suddenly appeared in front of her table. "Excuse me, miss, what would you like to order?"
The sound attracted the attention of the table where the parents were looking for their children. They instinctively looked over, and Xun Ting pulled her hat down and ran away. She couldn't be discovered at this moment.
After all, they overheard their conversation.
Su Mengmeng got up and chased after them, and Xun's parents also ran over. At this time, there was no one in the coffee shop, and the man wearing a hat sat down next to them.
They run away as soon as the waiter asks what they want to drink—what else could it be but eavesdropping! They clearly don't look like they're here for coffee.
"Stop eavesdropping!"
Xun Ting didn't dare to turn around; she kept running forward without saying a word.
They immediately took a shortcut to intercept their parents.
Ultimately, the situation was maintained, and Xun Ting was forced to stop. She held the brim of her hat and lowered her head.
"Who are you? Why are you eavesdropping on us?" Su Mengmeng pressed closer, her eyes fixed on Xun Ting.
"Looking for something?" Mother Xun guessed.
"Just passing by." Xun Ting lowered his head, turned his face away, lowered his voice, and pretended to speak in a male tone.
"If you were just passing by, why are you running? If you weren't looking for someone, what's wrong with taking off your hat and showing it to us?" Su Mengmeng was always wary and didn't believe it was really just passing by.
I wonder how long this person sat there and how much they heard. What if it gets out?
As she spoke, she reached out to take Xun Ting's hat.
Xun Ting took a step back without making a sound and lowered his voice: "Miss, please have some self-respect."
"If you're really a man, then why do you have long hair?" Su Mengmeng was starting to wonder if this person had overheard her.
"Habit".
"I don't believe you! I absolutely won't let you go until you take off your hat." Su Mengmeng used all her strength and reached out to attack her.
Xun Ting took a step back, his hand still gripping the brim of her hat, and kicked her hand away.
"Fine! You dare to lay a hand on me! Wearing women's shoes and pretending to be a man, I'd like to see who you are!" Su Mengmeng became even more ruthless, faster and more efficient.
She kept punching Xun Ting in the face, trying to make her hat fall off.
While dodging and blocking her attacks, Xun Ting found it difficult to fight with one hand. This person... was quite skilled, unlike Xun Mengmeng.
Dream Seeker doesn't have that kind of skill.
Taking advantage of her inattention, Su Mengmeng forcefully slapped off her hat, exposing Xun Ting's face to the three of them.
"It really was you! Tell me, when did you start sitting there eavesdropping, and how much did you hear!" Su Mengmeng chuckled mockingly, pressing closer with each step.
There's hardly anyone passing by here, and her bodyguards are lurking in the shadows. It seems she needs to deal with the eavesdropper ahead of time!
If you're just asking for trouble, don't blame her for being ruthless.
