Chapter 88: Mi Fan’s POV (Part 1) (2/2)

Because I woke up late, I was approximately 30 minutes late.

When I arrived at the entrance of the coffee shop, I saw a man who was reading.

He was very slim and had distinct facial qualities.

He was very deep into his novel…

I was quite certain he was the guy. Subconsciously, the corners of my mouth curved into a smile.

I walked in and approached him.

“Hi, my name is Mi Fan.”

I gave him my professional smile and waited for him to stand up to pull out my chair.

He wasn’t what I had imagined? Umm… he didn’t seem to look forward to this meeting as much as I had thought.

When he saw me, he lightly closed his book and politely greeted me, “Hi, I’m Suyang.”

Since he didn’t show any indication he was going to get up, I pulled out my chair myself and sat down across from him.

Was it because I was late?

I felt like the atmosphere was a bit strange. It was totally not what I had expected.

“In regards to my lateness, I would like to first apologize. Normally, I’m quite….”

“My name is Suyang. What would you like to eat?” Suyang cut me off and directly called the waiter over.

“Huh?”

“I’m asking you what you would like to eat. We can’t just sit here and not order?” Suyang smiled at me.

But why didn’t the words and smile align?

I looked at the table. He didn’t order anything either?!

He had already called the waiter over. I couldn’t say anything else. Since I hadn’t eaten breakfast, I might as well combine lunch and breakfast together.

“I’ll have a cheesecake and a cup of caramel macchiato.”

“I’ll have a cup of water.”

I think I got the message now. His family probably forced him to come. So, he didn’t want to set a good impression.

“Why did you come?” I got straight to the point. He was forced and I was forced. It was unnecessary for both of us to pretend.

“Why did I come?” Suyang thought about it. Then, he casually responded, “Because of my assistant.”

“Your assistant? It wasn’t your family that forced you here?”

“Nope, it’s because of my assistant.”

“What did your assistant do?”

“She didn’t stop me, so I came.”

That was the strangest reason I’ve ever heard. Because his assistant didn’t stop him?

I began to feel curious towards this man.
