Chapter 193 - Filled With Doubts (6)

At a table in the middle of the restaurant, a rusticly dressed woman stood with one hand on her waist, and one hand pointing at the waiter’s head. She looked exactly like a moving teapot.

“Fu Bainian, you fancy a woman of that calibre? I didn’t know that you had such a heavy taste!” Lan Jinyao teased. Without mentioning that woman’s apparel, her makeup alone was over the top, like that of an opera singer. If she were to go out like that at night, she’d surely scare a person to death.

Fu Bainian leisurely retracted his gaze, and replied, “The type of woman I fancy…isn’t a person of that calibre sitting right in front of me?”

Lan Jinyao’s lips twitched upon hearing him say this, and she snorted. “Yeah, right! Who’d believe your nonsense? Just now, your gaze was practically glued to that person other there. Hurry up and spill the beans; what were you staring at so intently?”

“I only have eyes for you!” said Fu Bainian while gazing at her with affectionate eyes.

Hearing this, Lan Jinyao suddenly burst into laughter. Of course, she was aware of that. She just didn’t expect that Fu Bainian would say those endearing words in such a deadpan manner.

The commotion at the other table wasn’t over yet, and it seemed that it wouldn’t be sorted anytime soon. Meanwhile, their food had already been served, so Lan Jinyao picked up a piece of chicken and placed it in Fu Bainian’s bowl. When she looked up, she saw Fu Bainian staring straight at the farce, his gaze intent and unmoving.

“Hey, hello, what are you doing?” Wasn’t he clearly provoking her? His wife was still around, yet he dared to stare at other women like this openly.

Fu Bainian frowned and retracted his gaze once more. At this moment, his expression looked somewhat solemn. His current expression made Lan Jinyao puzzled, and her heart was currently in a total mess.

“Fu Bainian, what were you looking at?” Lan Jinyao’s voice sounded somewhat heavy as she questioned him.

Fu Bainian pointed to the other side for her to see, but even after staring for a long time, she hadn’t managed to discern anything out of the ordinary.

She couldn’t help but shrug and ask, “Uhmm…what’s your focal point?” Don’t tell her it was those thick cotton stockings? Wait, maybe not, could it be…those stiletto sandals then? Or, possibly that cool purple wig?

Fu Bainian solemnly asked in response, “Meimei, do you believe in reincarnation?”

Lan Jinyao froze for a second before saying, “Aren’t you asking the obvious?” There was living proof right in front of him, so was there still a need for him to question this fact?

At this moment, Fu Bainian’s expression grew more profound as he said, “That woman’s behaviour is very similar to the former Chen Meimei’s. Her temperament, as well as those small movements she made earlier, were practically the same.”

Upon hearing that, Lan Jinyao’s expression instantly stiffened. “What nonsense are you spouting? Haha, in this world, there are a lot of people that have the same personality and fashion sense, so it’s not surprising to encounter one or two people with the same tastes. I don’t understand why you’re making such a fuss over this.”

Although she was smiling, her expression didn’t look relaxed at all.

Fu Bainian believed in his judgment and continued insisting. “There are a lot of similar people in this world, but they can’t have the same habitual gestures.”

Once he finished speaking, Lan Jinyao’s lips curled up, and she unhurriedly said, “Why not? What if those habitual gestures can be imitated? Don’t forget, the former Chen Meimei was also a public figure, so it wouldn’t surprise me one bit if someone is imitating her. Besides, Lan Xin’s a perfect example of this… At that time, didn’t you also believe that she was me?”

What Lan Jinyao had said was justified, so Fu Bainian couldn’t refute her words.

Yet, even though she’d said all that, a trace of worry still formed in her heart. After all, what Fu Bainian had said wasn’t entirely without reasoning.
