Sheng Jianan took a step back and then suddenly reached out to pinch Tang Yanqi’s chin: "I told you, don’t try any tricks in front of me, Tang Yanqi. If you mess with me, there will be no good outcome."
Tang Yanqi sighed again. Is his preconceived notion really that severe?
Does he see everything she does as playing tricks and schemes? He really thinks highly of her, Tang Yanqi, doesn’t he?
With her chin pinched painfully by Sheng Jianan, Tang Yanqi met his gaze without fear or arrogance: "Mr. Sheng, I will remember our agreement, and please don’t flatter yourself. Even if I had means or ambition, I wouldn’t waste them on you. So please let me go."
Tang Yanqi’s tone was gentle, but each word was as sharp as a needle, making Sheng Jianan extremely displeased. Was she looking down on him?
What right did she have to look down upon him?
From childhood to adulthood, he, Sheng Jianan, had never been looked down upon. What was this woman in front of him?
Sheng Jianan squinted his eyes, lowered his head, and stared intently at Tang Yanqi, trying to discern something else from her calm face.
Suddenly, someone pushed the door behind Tang Yanqi, and with a sudden force, she stumbled forward. Just as Sheng Jianan’s head lowered, his back hurt a little, but his lips touched something soft.
Before Tang Yanqi could react, the force behind disappeared, and a puzzled voice was heard: "Why can’t I open this door?"
With this little incident, Sheng Jianan’s hand pinching Tang Yanqi’s chin had already loosened. The next second, Tang Yanqi quickly ran into a small cubicle.
Her heart was racing, not because of Xiao Mei’s sudden intrusion, but because...
Instinctively, she reached out to touch her lips. The soft sensation was still there; although it was cold, it was really soft. Was it... Sheng Jianan’s lips?
Tang Yanqi always remained calm, used to covering her fragile soul with a detached shell, but now, she was flustered, her heart in disarray.
Outside, Sheng Jianan was also stunned. If Tang Yanqi could sense something, how could he not? Touching his lips, they felt sticky. There was a bit of pink lip gloss on his fingers, with a faint fragrance. It smelled very pleasant.
A strange feeling rushed to Sheng Jianan’s brain. He had never felt before, a feeling beyond his control, making him frown.
The person outside seemed to have left. Sheng Jianan stood still for a moment, turned and glanced at the cubicle where Tang Yanqi had run, his eyes narrowing again with a thoughtful expression before stepping out.
With a "bang," the sound of the door closing restored peace to the restroom.
A few minutes passed before Tang Yanqi came out. Standing in front of the sink, she had calmed down. She and Sheng Jianan had accidentally kissed, but it was just an accident, a heart-stopping, yet heartbreaking accident.
After washing her hands, Tang Yanqi calmly walked out. She still had work to do and couldn’t keep hiding there.
Tang Yanqi returned to the restaurant, just in time to see Xiao Mei scratching her head in front of a table of customers. Seeing her, Xiao Mei immediately rushed over: "Little Tang, where did you run off to? Help! Quick, that table of customers, I can’t understand a word they’re saying."
