Because the little one he’d been thinking about suddenly ignored him, the man sat at the bar with an unintentionally gloomy and dangerous aura about him.
He wore a sullen face and didn’t speak for a long time.
Just sitting there was enough to make people feel apprehensive.
Initially, a few girls dared to come up to order drinks and show their faces, but eventually, they were intimidated by the atmosphere and didn’t dare to come again.
Soon, there was no one near the bar except Yan Yan and Fan Xinglan.
Until almost closing time, Yun Qiqi hadn’t paid attention to them.
In the end, she hadn’t intended to take any of the gifts they had sent.
Fan Xinglan saw that she was about to leave and couldn’t help but anxiously call to her, "Qiqi, these are the snacks we bought for you. Don’t you like them?"
Yun Qiqi finally stopped in her tracks and turned around to acknowledge him.
However, she only said unemotionally, "No need."
Then she walked out with that rabbit bag on her back.
The guys looked at the pile of untouched gifts left on the bar and felt the chill of her indifference for the first time.
It was such a heartbreaking and uncomfortable feeling.
Just then, Fu Lifei came over, and Fan Xinglan quickly jumped over to catch Fu Lifei and asked,
"Did you let Little Sister-in-law be wronged here? Or did you bully her?"
Fu Lifei hadn’t even reacted yet, looking utterly confused, "What grievance? What happened?"
How could he possibly bully Little Sister-in-law? If anything, he was the one bullied by her!
Fan Xinglan was convinced Yun Qiqi had been bullied by someone at Hepburn’s.
He furiously said, "Little Sister-in-law suddenly ignored us today, even Brother Yan. She was fine yesterday, but today suddenly like this, go quickly and check if something happened!"
Fu Lifei glanced at Yan Yan, who had been wearing a sullen face, and finally understood why their Brother Yan looked so down tonight.
His heart tightened, also growing worried, afraid that Little Sister-in-law truly got bullied here.
—Although he felt from the bottom of his heart that no ordinary person could bully their Little Sister-in-law.
But he still didn’t dare neglect it, and while Yun Qiqi hadn’t left the bar, quickly called for the manager.
The result was the manager was even more bewildered: "Nothing happened, Miss Yun was very quiet today, and didn’t interact much with others. Could it be because of something else?"
The manager thought of something, frowned again, and tentatively said, "However, something is unusual. She didn’t finish her cake tonight. Could it be an upset stomach causing her mood to be bad?"
Yan Yan’s face already looked very unpleasant.
He knew his Little Gua too well; no matter how upset, she wouldn’t refuse cake.
Could it really be that she’s not feeling well?
Thinking of the young girl’s dead, emotionless eyes just now, he inexplicably felt a bit of anxiety and unease in his heart.
Not waiting for the manager to finish speaking, he was already wearing a grim face and chased after Yun Qiqi’s departing figure.
Yun Qiqi had already walked quite a distance outside the door.
Noticing his approaching footsteps, she paused and turned back to look at him with indifferent eyes.
After a while, her cherry pink lips moved and she spoke, "Don’t follow me anymore."
Her tone carried a hint of coldness, as if she’d reverted to the way it was before they knew each other.
"Little Gua..."
Yan Yan softly began, instinctively reaching out to her.
Upon hearing those two words, Yun Qiqi couldn’t help but furrow her brow, her face tensing even more. Before he could touch her, she quickly dodged his hand.
Looking at him warily.
