In the following days, Yun Qiqi quickly realized that since she started working here, every evening she would encounter this particularly handsome man.
He just sat in front of her bar, ordered a bunch of drinks, and didn’t really drink them, just watched her mix.
His eyes always held something she couldn’t comprehend, like he was restraining himself, making her feel a bit odd.
However, ever since he sat at the bar, the number of people who came to harass her on her first day at work had significantly decreased in the short term.
Regarding this point, she was quite satisfied, so she didn’t pay him any mind.
It’s just that every night when she got off work, he’d be driving behind her slowly.
He didn’t do anything, just seemed purely to want to escort her home.
And Fu Lifei quickly noticed too, ever since Brother Yan discovered Little Sister-in-law started working here, Little Sister-in-law’s off-duty time had been getting earlier and earlier...
From initially one thirty, to later twelve thirty.
Tonight, she even planned to leave at twelve ten!
Has anyone ever seen someone only work two hours, for fuck’s sake!
It’s simply insane!
At night, Yun Qiqi finished her two hours and ten minutes of work and continued carrying that rabbit bag, walking on her way home.
There was no snow tonight, and she didn’t bring an umbrella, walking slowly.
Yan Yan was personally driving a supercar, following her leisurely from behind.
Yun Qiqi seemed completely unaware someone was following her, expressionless and indifferent, continued walking forward.
Passing by a cake shop, she went inside.
Yan Yan hesitated for a moment, didn’t follow, just parked the car at the entrance, quietly waiting for her to come out.
Soon, the young girl came out with a small cake.
Looking at that exquisite cake box, the man paused, his lips couldn’t help but curl up slightly.
This little one is as greedy as ever.
At Hepburn, she clearly already ate a small cake he bought her.
Now that no one is controlling her sweet intake, who knows how many cakes she eats a day.
He followed her all the way home, watched as she entered the apartment.
Then he parked the car below, watching her room’s window from the car.
Until half an hour later, when the light in her room went off, he reluctantly withdrew his gaze and drove away slowly.
On the fourth floor, in the dark living room with the lights off, the young girl stood quietly beside the white curtain, silently watching the vehicle gradually drive away through the floor-to-ceiling window.
She stared for quite a while until the car disappeared into the night.
Only then did she slowly withdraw her gaze, with an unidentified emotion fleeting through her pitch-black, dead eyes.
But she quickly returned to her cold demeanor, drawing the curtains.
A sound came from the second bedroom.
Shi Yunshen, awakened halfway by thirst, came out holding a cup dressed in black pajamas, and saw the young girl standing by the window.
At first sight, he was startled.
Realizing it was her, he breathed a sigh of relief: "You’re back?"
"Mm."
"Quite early today," Shi Yunshen mumbled, then glanced at her strangely, "What are you doing standing there? Why don’t you turn on the light?"
The young girl didn’t respond, her eyes carrying some emptiness.
It seemed he was used to her attitude, turned to switch on the living room light, and poured a glass of water.
Returning to the sofa, he saw Yun Qiqi already sitting there, with a small cake placed in front of her.
