Chapter 987: Chapter 986: Loop Back Chapter 987: Chapter 986: Loop Back The teahouse, located in a bustling district, had a lot of customers coming and going, including those who were just there to enjoy tea and others discussing business. After Leng Ran left, others gradually started to leave as well, but the Eurasian man remained there the entire time.

Nan Fei frowned, feeling as though she was overlooking something.

*****

Outside, in the corner of the teahouse, Leng Tianqi grabbed Leng Ran by the clothes and pinned him against the wall.

“Let go!” Leng Ran commanded emotionlessly.

“What if I don’t want to?” Leng Tianqi looked at Leng Ran disdainfully, “You know I hate this holier-than-thou act of yours, as if people are forcing you to do things. Why don’t you take a good look at yourself first?”

Leng Tianqi had despised him for a long time; originally, everything in the Leng Family was supposed to be hers, yet it had been snatched away by Leng Ran who had suddenly returned. She really didn’t understand what her aunt saw in him, always looking half dead.

She had tried to cause trouble for Leng Ran a few times before, but A Rong secretly intervened each time. Now, with A Rong gone, she was eager to see how Leng Ran would be arrogant.

“Then you’ll force me to be impolite.”

Leng Ran moved faster than he spoke. Before his words had even finished, he suddenly grabbed Leng Tianqi’s hand, twisted it behind her back, and incapacitated her instantly.

“I’ve said it! Don’t mess with me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Leng Tianqi’s arms were pinned behind her back, rendering her immobile, and her pretty face contorted with pain.

“Heh…” She sneered, curling her lips at Leng Ran with a scornful smirk.

“If you dare, then kill me.”

Leng Ran, startled, released his grip and turned to leave immediately.

Leng Tianqi, unwilling to let it go, followed him and asked, “Why are you just walking away?” She had heard from Feng Sha about Leng Ran’s mission and was extremely resentful.

Why did such a good opportunity fall to Leng Ran? Who could match her in charm and persuasiveness?

She believed that she could accomplish twice as much with half the effort. A country bumpkin of a girl would surely be spun around by her manipulation.

“You don’t know shit.” Leng Ran really didn’t want to waste his words on such a stupid person.

“I see, it’s clearly because you’re useless. You just run away while pretending to obey Aunt’s orders,” Leng Tianqi taunted, “Really useless, escaping in such a disgraceful manner.”

Leng Ran couldn’t be bothered with her.

Talking to such an idiot would only lower his own intelligence. Stupid and unaware, yet treating everyone in the world as fools.

Jiang Nanfei was the most dangerous peer she had ever encountered growing up. Even in Qi Li Middle School, she knew he was not only smart but extremely clever. At that time, they had no conflicts and even admired each other.

Now… it was impossible.

Leng Ran sighed silently, guessing that his behavior had probably aroused Nan Fei’s suspicion already. Fortunately, she had soon left; the longer she stayed, the more suspicious she would become.

After not seeing her for just a year, Jiang Nanfei had become sharper and even more dangerous than when at school.

******

Nan Fei stayed in the teahouse, occasionally glancing at her watch. An hour after Leng Ran left, she got up, paid the bill and left. Passing the Eurasian man, she noticed he had fallen asleep on the table.

Without a sideways glance, Nan Fei walked out of the teahouse, turned a corner intending to catch a car, but actually took a detour and walked back. It took her less than five minutes to enter a cake shop across from the teahouse, from where she could clearly see the front door of the teahouse from behind the shop’s glass window.
