After waiting about ten minutes, a bustle of footsteps began to sound, and Su Chen opened his eyes, stood up, and turned to look back.
He saw Ye Mei approaching in a set of black leather jacket and pants, her raven hair casually draped over her shoulders, instantly lighting up his eyes.
Su Chen couldn't help but sigh, thinking how changeable this woman was. She appeared completely different from before, earlier she had seemed more seductive, and now she exuded a wilder charm!
However, one thing remained the same, and that was the seductive aura emanating from her, something that simply could not be concealed!
"Let's go!"
Ye Mei walked over and naturally linked her arm with Su Chen's. A playful smile spread across his face as he accepted her gesture.
He was curious to see what this woman's intentions were.
In a short while, the two arrived in the clubhouse's foyer and then stepped onto a spiral staircase.
This staircase was quite distinctive, reminiscent of a winding mountain road, extending all the way to the top floor.
"The design of this restaurant is quite exquisite."
After reaching the top floor, Su Chen nodded in admiration.
From the quiet hot springs at the back to this staircase and many other details, Su Chen could tell that the designer had put in a lot of thought.
"Of course, and not only that, the designer herself is a great beauty,"
Ye Mei turned to look at Su Chen, blinked, and seemed somewhat mysterious.
"Oh, is that so? Now I'm rather curious." Su Chen said with a light laugh, "Do you know the designer by any chance?"
With a secretive smile, Ye Mei didn't answer Su Chen's question. Instead, she headed to a private room, pushed the door open, and walked in.
Inside, a table set with food and drink was already laid out, and steam was rising, evidently prepared in advance by Ye Mei.
Su Chen casually took a seat, and Ye Mei sat next to him, even scooting her chair closer to his side.
Su Chen thought to himself: Why sit so close in this heat?
Of course, Su Chen didn't really voice such a mood-killing remark.
"Try this, the snake soup is a signature dish of this clubhouse, very nourishing for the body."
Ye Mei stood up, served Su Chen a bowl, and placed it in front of him.
"Thank you."
Su Chen said, then began to taste it.
"Indeed, it's delicious, fresh on the palate!"
Su Chen glanced at the somewhat flustered Ye Mei:
"I still have a sense of self-awareness. I'm not so narcissistic as to believe that I have the charm to make Miss Ye fall in love at first sight!"
For Su Chen, from the encounter at the hot springs to now sitting beside him, none of it could be without reason!
"Why would Mr. Su think so little of himself? Could it not be possible that I have fallen for Mr. Su?"
Ye Mei looked at Su Chen as she said:
"Mr. Su is quite a charming man, after all!"
This remark Ye Mei made wasn't just talk; although he wasn't the kind of man who stunned people at first glance, he was certainly someone who grew on you the more you looked!
"No," Su Chen shook his head, "One's eyes do not deceive, and your eyes tell me that your actions today are not pure!"
"Miss Ye, do you think I can still drink this wine?"
Su Chen looked at the flustered Ye Mei and smiled faintly.
"Is Mr. Su suspecting that I put something in this wine?" Ye Mei's elegant eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Of course not, for if that were the case, you wouldn't be sitting here so comfortably," Su Chen looked at Ye Mei and asked, "Now tell me, what exactly is the reason for Miss Ye's actions today."
Ye Mei was just about to speak when Su Chen waved his hand:
"From now on, I do not wish to hear any insincere probes from Miss Ye's mouth."
The force of Su Chen's words made Ye Mei, who was about to speak, close her mouth again.
After a moment, Ye Mei took a deep breath before looking at Su Chen:
"The cause for today's events dates back to something that happened yesterday afternoon. I want to ask, was that person you?"
"Are you referring to the incident at Dragon Ascend Building?"
Su Chen tilted his head slightly, suddenly seeming to understand.
"Yes, that's the incident I'm talking about."
Ye Mei nodded slightly, looking at Su Chen with a face showing signs of nervousness, and her heartbeat quickened a bit!
After all, everything before was merely speculation!
"You're right, that person was indeed me,"
Su Chen replied indifferently, not denying it and openly admitting it.
Hearing this, Ye Mei was greatly shocked!
Although she had suspected it, getting confirmation still made her feel incredulous!
