Revenge Sevenfold

After a short second, her phone buzzed.

Tiger On The Prowl: En.

As usual, he was really a fan of short replies.

Black Ancient Kingdoms: Only a one-word reply when we haven't seen each other for so long?

Tiger On The Prowl: En.

Hui Yin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. As expected, Jiang Xu really wasn't the type to draw legs on a snake!

Black Ancient Kingdoms: I want to see you! How are you?

Tiger On The Prowl: OK.

Black Ancient Kingdoms: Can we meet? Maybe tomorrow at eight in the usual spot?

Tiger On the Prowl: En.

Black Ancient Kingdoms: I really missed you!

Tiger On The Prowl: I missed you too.

Hui Yin blinked. That Jiang Xu had actually typed a reply of more than one word? What a miracle!

Feeling happy that she was going to have her own little reunion, she didn't mind the intimate proximity of Lu Shen and Nian Zhen anymore.

When they had seated themselves at the restaurant earlier, Nian Zhen occupied the seat beside Lu Shen without hesitation, leaving Hui Yin no other choice but to sit opposite them like she was their lightbulb and not the other way around.

But with the prospect of seeing an old friend tomorrow, nothing could dampen Hui Yin's happiness at that moment.

However, she was completely unaware that someone had been staring at her since she smiled at her phone because of Jiang Xu, his dark eyes turning frigid.

Lu Shen hadn't heard a word of Nian Zhen's endless chattering, because he was too busy pondering the girl across from him.

For a while, she seemed to be only bored, but she suddenly looked at her phone and flashed a radiant smile. Her fingers were rapidly typing, so Lu Shen knew that she was chatting with someone.

His hands clenched into fists under the table.

Lu Shen felt an indescribable urge to take away her phone, and it took all of his control to reign his temper back in. Nian Zhen had just arrived, so he didn't want to ruin her first day after returning to the country.

Nian Zhen finally realized that Lu Shen wasn't paying any attention to her. She followed his gaze, and her eyes narrowed.

"Tell me, how did you and Lu Shen meet?"

Hui Yin looked up from her phone when she heard Nian Zhen's voice talking to her.

So they finally realized that the two of them weren't alone?

Hui Yin smiled. "Just by a twist of fate."

A cruel twisted fate, that made her completely hate the man she loved.

"Just that?" Nian Zhen raised her eyebrows.

"Don't be so tight lipped, Yinyin. I know Brother Shen since we were children, and I know I wouldn't be able to get the story from him since he's so quiet. You're the only one who can tell me."

Yinyin?

Hui Yin almost couldn't resist clapping at Nian Zhen's outstanding performance.

Not only did she ingratiate herself with Hui Yin by calling her with an intimate nickname, she also managed to insinuate that she knew Lu Shen better than she would ever do because the two of them had a past that didn't involve her.

"I'm not a good storyteller, so it's better if you ask Lu Shen," lied Hui Yin, doing her best to look like a sweet, pampered fiancée. "I don't know how he was in the past, but he always seems to like talking to me."

Hui Yin peeked a glance at Lu Shen as she said that, but he didn't seem to have any plans on contradicting her. He was only calmly sipping his water.

"Oh, is that so?" Nian Zhen's smile turned ugly.
