Qin Tian saw the murderous look in the waitress’s eyes, and she, too, felt the sharpness in Qin Tian’s gaze when she looked at him.
"Excuse me, is your boss named Jin Xing?" Qin Tian asked the waitress again.
"No," the waitress answered.
Their gazes shifted away, and the waitress walked toward the cash register, saying, "We don’t have anyone named Jin Xing here, you’ve got the wrong place, sorry, sir."
By then, Qin Tian had already sensed there was something extraordinary about the waitress and recalled what Cao Guojun had told him about the third café.
"This third Sky Café, although the boss is a woman, she may be connected to Special Forces, mercenaries..."
Ah, after remembering Cao Guojun’s words, Qin Tian felt more at ease.
It appeared Cao Guojun was right, this café was definitely linked with a mercenary unit. The question was which mercenary group was using this place in Zhonghai City as their base?
Encountering a peer in this vast city brought some happiness to Qin Tian.
Seeing that the waitress had become wary and wasn’t speaking to him, he started strolling around the café.
His eyes fell on the commercial registration proof behind the cash register, and Qin Tian smiled, saying, "Beauty, didn’t you say there’s no one named Jin Xing here? You lied."
As he spoke, he pointed at the commercial registration information and health permit on the wall, "Your boss’s name is Jin Xing."
The waitress looked up at Qin Tian and said, "So what? What do you want with our boss?"
"Indeed, I have business, but I’ll wait for your boss to return before discussing it. Where did she go?"
"I’m just a waitress; how would I know where the boss is?"
"Heh, beauty, I mean no harm. I came here to find your boss because I truly have business. If your boss doesn’t show up today, then I’ll come back every day."
Seeing the waitress’s dismissive attitude, Qin Tian made a series of stubborn remarks.
Indeed, upon hearing Qin Tian’s words, the waitress’s expression changed right away.
She looked at him more alertly and frowned, "Sir, I’ve never seen you before. What exactly do you want to do here?"
"I said, I’m looking for your boss."
"And I said, our boss isn’t here. We don’t welcome you here; please leave immediately!"
As she spoke, the waitress walked toward Qin Tian with a cold look, utterly uninviting.
"What if I don’t leave?" Qin Tian stood his ground in the face of the waitress’s eviction order, unmoving.
"If you don’t leave, then I’ll have to ask you to!"
Saying this, the waitress reached out to shove Qin Tian!
At first, Qin Tian didn’t take it seriously, thinking how strong could a girl’s shove be?
But when the waitress’s palm hit Qin Tian’s shoulder, he instantly felt a tremendous force descending from the heavens!
He almost got knocked to the ground by the waitress!
Feeling the unusual strength of the waitress, Qin Tian didn’t dare to take it lightly anymore and quickly activated his energy to ground himself. His body, which had been tilted by the waitress’s shove, slowly returned to its original state.
Qin Tian’s body, which had initially seemed ready to fly with a push, now suddenly became like an indestructible wall. The waitress used all her strength, but she could hardly move him.
"Who the hell are you!"
At this moment, the waitress’s expression changed.
And in her heart, her speculation about Qin Tian was confirmed—this man was extraordinary!
"Call your boss out, and I’ll tell you who I am," Qin Tian said indifferently.
"Don’t even think about it!"
Waitress He Yuzi said coldly, then her tone shifted to a warning, "I warn you, don’t come here looking for trouble, or the consequences will be severe!"
At this, Qin Tian actually laughed, "I’ll also warn you, don’t touch my body, or the consequences will be severe as well."
Seeing Qin Tian’s mischievous smile, He Yuzi only then realized her hand was still on Qin Tian’s shoulder and immediately withdrew it like lightning.
Facing this persistent man, He Yuzi felt somewhat at a loss. In the quiet coffee shop, she was not inclined to have a brawl with Qin Tian.
"Yuzi, what’s going on?"
Just then, from inside the coffee shop, a woman with an apron tied around her, her long hair done up, and a refined demeanor walked out. She appeared to be in her twenties but carried herself with an elegance and sophistication.
"Second Sister, this man, he’s looking for you."
As He Yuzi spoke, she walked over to the woman’s side and whispered in her ear, "This man has good skills, he might not be simple, be careful, Second Sister."
Hearing this, Jin Xing’s gaze landed on Qin Tian, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
This man, why does he look somewhat familiar to her?
Could she have seen him somewhere before?
After thinking for a moment and recalling nothing, Jin Xing slowly approached Qin Tian, "Sir, is there something you need from me?"
"Are you Jin Xing?" Qin Tian asked.
"Oh, I came to ask you about someone."
"You want to ask me about someone?"
"Yes, do you know a person named Zhou Yang?"
"...I don’t know him."
As they conversed, Qin Tian was continuously observing Jin Xing’s facial expressions—when he mentioned the name "Zhou Yang," he saw a noticeable twitch on Jin Xing’s cheek.
This subtle detail convinced Qin Tian that Jin Xing was lying, she definitely knew Zhou Yang!
"You don’t know him?" Qin Tian looked up, "I heard he frequents this place for coffee."
Having learned from Lin Yu that Zhou Yang often appeared at this coffee shop, Qin Tian wanted to use this information to fish for answers.
But at this moment, Jin Xing seemed on guard as well, saying, "We have many customers here every day, and I do not know their names. So, I don’t know who you’re talking about, sorry."
Jin Xing’s response left Qin Tian with no way to continue.
Feeling he couldn’t get any information about Zhou Yang from further questioning, Qin Tian gave up, smiled apologetically at Jin Xing and He Yuzi, and said, "Well... alright, my apologies for the disturbance."
Having said that, Qin Tian turned and headed towards the exit of the coffee shop.
At this moment, Qin Tian was convinced that the coffee shop he was looking for was indeed this Starry Sky Coffee Shop!
Since the owner was not forthcoming, Qin Tian felt there was no need to continue asking.
He was leaving now, but later, he would have the coffee shop under surveillance—he didn’t believe Zhou Yang, the Fire Wolf, would never show up!
"The usual, at the usual spot, the usual coffee, no rush, take your time making it."
Just as Qin Tian was near the entrance of the coffee shop, a figure walked in from outside, saying these words with familiar ease.
They almost brushed past each other. Qin Tian saw the side of the person’s face, felt a sudden shock in his heart, and instantly turned back!
