Chapter 269: 269 debunked

The girl was still wearing the same outfit she had on at school in the afternoon, her pale face deathly still and gray with coldness.

An Zixin’s eyes suddenly bulged with shock!

Yang Mei! How could she appear here?

Yuexing Restaurant is one of the top luxury restaurants in Magic Capital, not somewhere Yang Mei could possibly enter!

He had chosen it after much deliberation, specifically picking this place.

Its prime location, high class, and exclusiveness barred ordinary people from entering!

With its reservation system, even on a busy Valentine’s Day, the restaurant rarely saw a full house.

Like today, the spacious hall was deserted except for their table, as if it had been chartered just for them.

(Yan Yueqing: Want to guess what’s happening?)

An Zixin had calculated every possibility to avoid running into Yang Mei... never did he imagine he would bump into her here.

Feeling her boyfriend’s movement halt, Xiao Tao furrowed her delicate brows, "Zixin, what’s wrong?"

"I..." An Zixin didn’t know how to face such a situation and could only hope that Yang Mei hadn’t recognized him.

There was still some distance between the three of them, she couldn’t have heard their earlier conversation, could she?

But Yang Mei was far from what he had hoped!

After a moment of silence on the spot, she decisively walked towards the dining area.

Seeing Xiao Tao’s hostile gaze and An Zixin quickly bowing his head to avoid eye contact, she sneered, "Aren’t you going to explain why you’re here?"

An Zixin stammered, afraid to speak.

Xiao Tao sensed something was off.

Seeing the girl approach furiously, she instinctively saw her as an enemy.

Upon hearing this, she felt it was a bit strange?

"You two... know each other?" Xiao Tao asked with some hesitation.

"You don’t know me?"

Xiao Tao was even more confused: "Should I?"

Seeing her reaction, Yang Mei understood that the girl in front of her was also a victim and cooled her anger slightly.

Extending her hand, she introduced herself generously to Xiao Tao: "Hello, to introduce myself, I’m An Zixin’s girlfriend, Yang Mei."

Xiao Tao actually had a premonition.

After all, girls naturally have a sixth sense when it comes to a Shura Field.

But when Yang Mei openly admitted it, Xiao Tao was still shocked her eyes wide open.

Her pretty little face, incredulous, turned vulnerably pale.

"Zixin, is what she’s saying true?" Xiao Tao stood up from her seat and asked the person behind her.

An Zixin hesitated for a moment, as if choosing between the two girls? He bit his lip in conflict and said: "Xiao Tao, listen to me explain."

Xiao Tao’s lips trembled, and she looked pitifully aggrieved, "Fine, you tell me... "

"I used to be in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship with her, but we broke up a long time ago! I only started chasing you after we had broken up!"

"An Zixin, what are you talking about? When did we ever break up?"

Hardening his heart, the scoundrel retorted, "Didn’t we talk about breaking up when we fought before the New Year? Everyone knows about it, do I really need to spell it out?"

Yang Mei staggered back two steps, shaking her head, with an expression of intolerable pain, "We did argue at that time, and all our colleagues knew it, but afterwards, I went to apologize to you, and didn’t you nod in agreement?"

This was still an incident from before the winter holidays last year, when Yang Mei was honored as the Outstanding Female Teacher of the semester for her excellent educational achievements. An Zixin also had the capability to compete for the recognition, but the school felt that it would be better to choose just one between couples or boyfriend-girlfriend pairs, thus the title of Outstanding Male Teacher was given to a senior teacher who was about to retire.

An Zixin’s teaching ability was fairly good, but he typically carried himself with a bit of arrogance, which had provoked the dislike of many colleagues.

Upon this incident, their resentment added fuel to the fire, "Teacher An, it’s because of Teacher Yang that you’ve stayed at the school, isn’t it all right to give up the title? You’re young, there’s still a long future ahead of you~"

An Zixin blew up at these words!

They were on the cusp of getting their marriage certificate, yet because of this issue, they ended up breaking up, and he applied for a separate teacher’s apartment and moved out.

Everyone knew the two had split, but nobody was aware that Yang Mei had actively sought reconciliation in the second week, and they had resumed their relationship as lovers.

However, to prevent a similar situation from happening again, they maintained a basic collegial relationship at school and didn’t make it public, nor did they move back in together.

Yang Mei was utterly disappointed, "To protect your pride and your public face, to spare you from the cold jests at school, I agreed to your demand that we not make it public after we made up... But what about you? Now you’re using that to choke me? Saying we’ve been broken up for over half a year?!"

An Zixin, seemingly having chosen Xiao Tao, who was easier to fool, was ruthless in his words towards Yang Mei, "You claim we got back together, do you have evidence?"

"This kind of thing, you want me to find evidence?" Tears flooded out of Yang Mei’s eyes, "An Zixin, do you even have a conscience?"

Xiao Tao was in a fog but had one thing clear—did they break up before the New Year?

Indeed, she had met Zixin before the New Year too...

Could it be, he transitioned from one relationship to another without a break?

Seeing the doubts in Xiao Tao’s eyes deepen, An Zixin hurriedly interjected, "Xiao Tao, don’t believe her. This woman comes and goes at my whim. Despite her capabilities, the school canceled the reward that was rightfully mine because of her. After we broke up, I cut off all contact with her. If you don’t believe me, you can ask at the school where I started working, and see who says I’m still involved with her?"

Xiao Tao was skeptical.

Yang Mei sneered, "If I’m not mistaken, during those two weeks we were in a cold war, you had already met this young lady beside you, right? An Zixin, so that’s why you said after we made up not to go public! It was all for today, wasn’t it?"

An Zixin said impatiently, "Stop causing trouble! I’ve had nothing to do with you for a long time!"

Yang Mei felt profound disappointment, "Is that your firm decision, to choose her and completely sever ties with me? An Zixin, you’re really something! Tonight, you still told me you were going to meet a sick relative coming from your hometown... Haha..."

The mocking laughter was cold and bitter.

Yang Mei no longer looked at him but turned to Xiao Tao instead, "Young lady, you seem so young, don’t let him deceive you!"

An Zixin remained unruffled, "Xiao Tao, you know how I treat you! Our relationship isn’t something a crazy woman can disrupt with a few words."

Xiao Tao looked at An Zixin and then at Yang Mei, feeling something wasn’t quite right.

But after all, the boyfriend had been with her for over half a year, whereas she had no clue where this girl had come from...

Her roommates had also said that her boyfriend was wealthy and handsome, with countless people eyeing him. What if this girl really was making an unwarranted fuss, refusing to accept their breakup... wouldn’t she be missing out on someone who was otherwise incredibly tender to her?

Xiao Tao was just about to make up her mind.

Another clear voice rang out, "Since you don’t want to talk about feelings anymore, let’s talk about money instead."
