Chapter 1628: Last Night, Tingshen Was With You

“Why wouldn’t I dare!”

Qiao Man was most easily provoked at this moment, especially since the opponent was someone she had feared since childhood.

Taking a few steps to the passenger side, Mother Qiao caught up, the sports car had only two seats, leaving no room for more people. She held the car door, staring at Chu Yao with caution, “I warn you, if you dare to do anything to Manman, I won’t let you off.”

Chu Yao snorted lightly, “Rest assured, Aunt, something like that isn’t worth my time.”

“You!”

Chu Yao nodded at Mother Qiao with a smile, ignoring her angry expression, and walked around to get in the car on the other side.

Not far from there, the car stopped in front of a high-end club. The staff came out to take the keys and park the car.

Chu Yao requested a private room, but when the waiter led the way, Qiao Man walked straight to the window in the hall and sat down.

“I’m sitting here,” Qiao Man challenged, “I don’t dare go to your private room, who knows what shady business you’re up to? I’m not afraid of being seen. You’re the one who’s guilty, Chu, Yao.”

She deliberately pronounced the name heavily.

Chu Yao’s expression remained unchanged as she calmly sat down, telling the waiter beside her, “No problem, we’ll sit here, please bring us two breakfasts.”

Without looking at the menu, she ordered a few dishes she often ate.

Once the waiter left, Chu Yao picked up the water pitcher, intending to pour some lemon water. Suddenly, Qiao Man withdrew a bit.

Chu Yao paused, looked up lightly, Qiao Man adjusted her expression unnaturally, and sat back down.

“No need to be nervous, I’m not doing anything to you. Are you drinking water? I’ll pour you a cup.”

Qiao Man retorted, “I’m not afraid of you.”

Chu Yao chuckled, poured a glass of water, first placing it in front of Qiao Man, and then herself.

She drank a couple of sips, turned her head to look out the window, “The choice of location is quite good, the view is nice. Are you afraid I’ll make a move, determined to keep watch in public?”

Qiao Man indeed stared at her fiercely, “Wouldn’t you?”

Chu Yao just laughed, she said nothing, only shook her head lightly.

Indeed, there’s no point in saying things when they don’t get along.

Soon enough, breakfast was served. Each had a portion in front of them, Chu Yao didn’t bother inviting her, focusing on her own meal. She ate gracefully, truly hungry, taking relatively large bites without getting a speck of sauce on her lips. She held two napkins, occasionally wiping the corners of her mouth.

Qiao Man was left feeling ignored for a while; she simply couldn’t believe this woman asked her out just to have a meal.

And how could she eat in front of her!

“Like a starving ghost reincarnated!”

Chu Yao looked up gently, “You’re laughing at me. I was indeed a bit tired last night, hungry, trying to replenish a bit. You’re not eating; not hungry?”

Initially, Qiao Man didn’t catch the meaning behind the words, after pondering briefly, her face suddenly turned pale.

She strained to ask, “Were you with Tingshen last night?”

“Yes, I was.”

Chu Yao admitted openly.

“How dare you admit it! How shameless!”

Qiao Man grabbed things from beside her and threw them at Chu Yao, who picked up a bowl of fried noodles in front of her. Without moving her seat, she just slightly leaned to the side dodging the incoming objects.

Those throws lacked any skill.

Qiao Man wasn’t hungry, she was, needing energy to speak, and no matter how big the matter, it wasn’t more important than filling one’s stomach.

Soon, Qiao Man ran out of things to throw. She propped her hands on the table, panting heavily, her chest seemed clogged, the breaths she managed were increasingly unstable, clutching her chest, she fell back onto the sofa.
