Chapter 1286: Chapter 1286: We Will Meet Again Soon

"What’s wrong with your arm?" Rong Yan didn’t know why she noticed her own arm, lifted it to look, and seeing only a faint scar remaining, she said nonchalantly, "Oh, this scar was from an accident I had a long time ago. It’s healed, but I didn’t pay attention to the scar left behind. Is it very noticeable?"

Chenyue was unsure whether she felt disappointed or some other emotion, shook her head, and gave a perfunctory smile, "It’s fine, not particularly noticeable."

She changed the subject herself, "Did Duidui like the cake this afternoon?"

Mentioning Little Baby, Rong Yan’s eyes curved in a smile, and her whole being radiated warmth, like she was enveloped in a dim light, soft and peaceful, "He liked it very much, and asked me to thank you. I’m really sorry for the trouble this afternoon."

"It’s okay, as long as he liked it. It was a hurried purchase, I should have asked which kind was tastier."

"No need, no need, you are too polite."

Chenyue found it impossible to dislike the girl in front of her, "It’s not being polite, I genuinely like that child. I don’t mean to hide it, but from the first glance, I felt an inexplicable closeness to him. I truly like him and want to get to know him. If there’s a chance, bring him out, and we can have a drink together. We’ve encountered each other three times in a single day; if that’s not fate, I can’t explain it. Since we’ve met by fate, bring him out next time, and let’s all hang out together, get to know more people."

"..."

Rong Yan was easy to get along with, but Gu Linxi also said that she was someone who wouldn’t easily reach out to others.

Seeing that she didn’t respond, Chenyue smiled faintly, showing great decorum, not making her uncomfortable, "I just returned from abroad, haven’t been in Capital City for decades, and I don’t know anyone here. Perhaps my invitation sounds strange, but I mean no harm. If it makes you uncomfortable, pretend I never asked."

Rong Yan lifted her eyelids, her eyes large and bright, "My son hasn’t started summer break yet. When he does, if Mrs. Jiang is still in Capital City, I’ll give you a call."

Chenyue noticed the man next to her narrowing his eyes but didn’t hear him object to their making plans for tea in the afternoon, which was unexpected. But at her level, she wouldn’t show her emotions openly anymore.

She shifted her gaze away, smiled lightly, and took the lead, "Then it’s settled. Alright, I’d like to continue walking. Which direction are you heading?"

Rong Yan pointed in a direction.

She showed a look of regret and pointed in the opposite direction of Rong Yan, "My home is this way, and it’s getting late, I need to head back. I won’t disturb your walk with your boyfriend. Yan, see you next time. I think we will meet again soon."

Her words carried an implication.

Rong Yan, not knowing who she was, didn’t think there was anything wrong with the statement, assuming it was just common courtesy.

But to Li Shengxiao, Chenyue’s words seemed profound, and he couldn’t immediately discern whether there was any malice in her words.

"Alright, see you next time. Next time, I’ll treat you to tea."

Chenyue waved her hand, walking away without turning back, still waving to them while facing the other direction.

Rong Yan watched her figure crossing the street and gradually disappearing at the corner, just about to look away when suddenly a strong hand wrapped around her waist, pulling her forcefully into an embrace.

"Do you know that person just now?" His voice was low and husky, not revealing anything wrong.

If he was not mistaken, that woman was probably the formidable and reportedly aloof and difficult Madame Chu from the Chu Family.
