The waiter at the door very politely looked at this beautiful lady who was rushing in, "May I ask how many ladies you are, Miss?"

"Mister Lu …" The waiter felt that he had no impression of this Lu guy. He looked at the record and said apologetically, "I'm sorry Miss, so far there is no record of Mr. Lu."

She was standing in the doorway of the East Moon Cafe, not sure what to do when her phone rang again.

"It was clearly you who didn't come, so why do you say that I was the one who broke the contract?" It didn't matter if she had found the wrong place, she definitely couldn't admit it. Lin Xiangyu glanced at the waiter and braced himself to retort into the phone.

"Are you sure? I've been sitting here for half an hour. " Hearing the other party's reply, Lu Jingjing's tone eased a little. Raising his head, he looked around. There weren't many adults in Eastern Maple Cafe, so when he looked around, he didn't see a single female.

"Mr. Lu, is there really no one waiting inside?" Lin Xiangyu heard the other party's doubts, and deliberately brought the phone closer to the waiters.

"Yes, miss. This gentleman is not on the register." The waiter had been standing quietly nearby, looking at his with a smile. When he heard her question again, he nodded his head affirmatively.

"Waiter, what's your name?" When Lu Jingjing heard the reply, he knew that the phone was very close to the waiter. Without wasting any more time with Lin Nianyu, he directly asked the waiter.

"Hello, sir. We are at the East Moon Cafe." The waiter politely answered through the phone in his usual gentle tone.

"Yes, sir."

The waiter knew that the young lady on the other side of the phone had also heard what the man had said, so he continued to look at her with a smile. "Miss, do I need to follow this mister's instructions?"

Lin Nianyu's face had long since turned red. It turned out to be Dong Feng, not Dong Yue. However, she really didn't know where Dong Feng's Cafe was.

After hanging up, she looked somewhat embarrassedly at the waiter, "I'm sorry, but I'll have to trouble you then."

The waiter nodded with a smile, and followed Lin Xiangyu into the taxi as per Lu Jingjing's intention. After all, getting fifty dollars in tips was not a small amount, and his prize money was only thirty dollars a day.

In the end, he did not forget to remind the young miss who was sitting in the car, "Miss, if there's anything you don't know, please come and find me."

A sweet smile appeared on Lin Nianyu's face as she let the taxi driver drive away. Actually, she already had a strong opinion of Lu Jing, who she had yet to meet.

Was this the sound of money being stolen? Fifty yuan was a week's worth of money for his instant noodles, plus the two times he took a taxi, it would be too much of a loss for him.

Thinking back to her own feelings, she couldn't help but smile wryly.

Ever since he was young, he had always been a coward. Even if he didn't want to, he wouldn't reject others.

Otherwise, he could have left his appointment that time and wouldn't have lost over a hundred dollars.

Back then, she had been extremely depressed. Now, if she had said no back then, she wouldn't have gotten involved to so many things with Lu Jingwen, right?

This was all caused by him, who could he blame?

… ….

"Lin Xiangyu?" The taxi stopped in front of an inconspicuous coffee shop. A burly man wearing black sunglasses and a black suit walked over and asked in a low voice.

Could it be that he was the one who had invited him here? Seeing the look on her opponent's face, Lin Xiangyu could not help but feel a lump in her throat. She began to hesitate whether or not she should get out of the car.

"Miss, we've arrived at the Eastern Maple Cafe, do you want to get off?" It was obvious that the driver still had some lingering fear from the man asking questions. He then looked at the pale-faced young girl sitting in the back and probed.

Lin Xiangyu nodded and paid the driver's bill, trembling with fear. Under the latter's worried gaze, she slowly opened the door and alighted from the car.

Lu Jingjing was the third son of the Lu Corporation. Even if he looked like a gangster, he probably wouldn't do anything to him. He had invited him here, so there was no reason for him to do anything to a weak little girl.

Even though she thought this, she still felt nervous. Just what was this terrifying man trying to show her?

"Hello, this is Lin Xiangyu." Her face was somewhat pale, and her voice was very gentle as she spoke.

"Boss has been waiting for Miss Lin for a long time. I'm his bodyguard, please." The man was polite. She nodded and made a gesture of invitation before leading the way into the café.

Hearing the other party's words, Lin Xiangyu let out a long breath. So it was Lu Jingjing's bodyguard. This Lu guy was really exaggerated. He was truly a big shot.

When she looked up, she saw the word 'Dong Feng' written on the door. It didn't even have the words' coffee shop '. It seemed that the business here wasn't good. Compared to Dong Yue, almost no one walked in.

As the burly bodyguard entered the lobby and headed for the second floor, he attracted curious gazes from the waiters who were also standing in the lobby.

She immediately lowered her head, fearing that she would catch a glimpse of his searching gaze.

She should be very curious about the fact that a girl who looked like a student was following behind a gangster. She was a great youth, alright? Her good image was instantly ruined by the tall man in front of her.

She gnashed her teeth in anger and swore silently in her heart: she would leave after she saw Lu Jingjing, not even a minute later.

When she walked up to the second floor, she realized that she had still underestimated Lu Jingjing's momentum. There were also three other people dressed in the same uniform as the bodyguard from before, standing respectfully behind a handsome man.

It seemed like it wouldn't be easy for him to leave today. The four men alone wouldn't let him leave so easily.
