Li Qingcang let go of Mr. Lin’s hand. He just punished him slightly. His thin lips opened lightly.

A huge sense of oppression instantly rushed towards Mr. Lin’s body. He clutched his red fingers and cried out in pain.

“Do you know who I am? Don’t you dare do this to me! My uncle is Liu…”

Liu?

Liu Jin?

Li Qingcang faintly remembered that Liu Xu and her family moved out of the Imperial Capital after she did something like that last time. Were they here now?

“Come back when you’re sober.”

Mr. Lin gritted his teeth and looked at his red and swollen fingers. He said in a low voice, “Wait till you see what happens.”

Li Qingcang silently glanced at Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin felt as if all of his pressure points had been struck. He couldn’t even move when the man was holding his wrist with his hand just then. It was so weird.

Mr. Lin glared at Nian Yufeng fiercely.

Nian Yufeng apologized to Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang, “Sorry, this is all my fault. I’ve caused you both a great deal of trouble.”

“Little sister, don’t worry about it. Oh, by the way, can you change a pot for us?”

Nian Yufeng nodded and called the waiter to change the pot for them.

Nian Yufeng was worried that the brainless Mr. Lin would do something stupid, so she told her boss about her encounter with Mr. Lin in the hot pot restaurant.

“Little sister, don’t worry, and it’s just Mr. Lin. It’s okay. The gentleman next to me, well, I’d rather not say anything. However, you don’t have to worry about this kind of shrimp. Just relax.”

Ye Tianxin saw that Nian Yufeng had been so worrying. She was not as bright and cheerful as she had been when they first met her.

She tried to ask her, “How did you meet Mr. Lin?”

“I met him through a blind date. Although I am a returnee with a master’s degree, you also know the situation here. My mother arranged a blind date for me when I got back.”

“My blind date is Mr. Lin, who is an upstart in the city. It is said that his family is engaged in real estate. I don’t know how they got a few pieces of land in the south of the city and became a real estate developer. Mr. Lin is the only child in the family. My mother had only heard of him from the matchmaker at the time, then I was set up on a blind date with Mr. Lin.”

“We met in a western restaurant when we were on the blind date. He was a bit rude that day. He kept introducing his family background and said that his uncle seemed to be a high official in the Imperial Capital and so on. Later, he lost his temper because the waiter at the Western restaurant accidentally spilled some fruit juice on him. I think we are completely at odds with each other.”

“My mother and the matchmaker turned them down. However, who knows that Mr. Lin has entangled me as if he fell in love with me at first sight. He stopped me every day at my work unit and sent me roses and chocolates, just like a decent boyfriend. I’m not afraid of you laughing at me. It used to be that a newcomer like me with a low level of qualifications would have to keep my tail between my legs at work. Instead, because of such a high-profile suitor, I … have become a celebrity in the unit now.”

Ye Tianxin saw the tears in Nian Yufeng’s eyes through the steam of the hot pot.
