Summer Kiss

Chapter 72 Chance Encounter
Jiang Yuning kept her eyes fixed on the outside of the car window. She wouldn't soften her heart, and she wouldn't believe Fu Xicheng's nonsense.

Fu Xicheng fell silent. He realized this tactic wasn't working. His voice was hoarse as he continued to bewitch Jiang Yuning.

"Ningning, it really hurts. You bit me pretty hard just now."

Jiang Yuning hardened her heart and remained in the same position as before, not even noticing Fu Xicheng leaning closer.

Jiang Yuning felt a cool sensation on her face as a handsome face loomed large before her eyes.

Jiang Yuning gasped in surprise, grabbed Fu Xicheng's face with both hands, and pushed him away.

He's absolutely wicked!

How could I lick her face when she wasn't looking?

Damn!
She really wanted to pin Fu Xicheng to the ground and rub him against the ground.

Fu Xicheng blinked his long, narrow eyes repeatedly; he was no longer going to tease her.

"Jiang Yuning, I surrender."

Jiang Yuning glared at him angrily, held out her hand to Fu Xicheng, and said in a furious tone, "Give me the money."

Fu Xicheng: "..."

He finally gave in and, under Jiang Yuning's threat, sent her a large red envelope.

Jiang Yuning accepted it without hesitation.

Fu Xicheng looked at Jiang Yuning; he had lost money and gained nothing.

Alas, he failed this time, defeated by Jiang Yuning.

Fu Xicheng did not continue to cause trouble. He started the car and drove smoothly on the asphalt road.

Jiang Yuning gazed at the scenery outside the car the whole way, without saying a word to him.

At that moment, she suddenly saw someone.

How did Meng Shuyu end up in a strange man's car?

Fearing that Meng Shuyu might be deceived, Jiang Yuning immediately took out her phone, snapped a picture of the outside world, and sent it to Meng Shuyu.

Soon, Meng Shuyu replied to Jiang Yuning's WeChat message.

After reading it, Jiang Yuning blinked in surprise. She had a strong intuition that Meng Shuyu and Xie Linzhou's initial encounter was not without its challenges, and that there was a high chance they would end up together.

But now, she's a little uncertain again.

Fu Xicheng glanced at Jiang Yuning with a casual look, and when he saw the rich expressions on her face, he couldn't help but ask, "Jiang Yuning, is there anything happy you can share with me?"

Jiang Yuning tapped her phone screen with her fingertip and sent Meng Shuyu an emoji.

She turned off her phone and looked at the man beside her who was driving intently.

“Fu Xicheng, Xie Linzhou was asking me about Meng Shuyu in the private room just now. Do you think he might have a thing for Meng Shuyu?”

Fu Xicheng raised an eyebrow, but he didn't think so. "Is it possible that he's just interested in Meng Shuyu?"

Are you interested?

Why did she feel that Xie Linzhou cared so much about Meng Shuyu?

Jiang Yuning didn't know Xie Linzhou very well, but she could still tell the difference in how a man looked at a woman.

Fu Xicheng then asked, "Why did you suddenly bring this up?"

Jiang Yuning spoke frankly, "Meng Shuyu told me she was going on a blind date, which I found unbelievable."

Jiang Yuning didn't know Xie Linzhou, but Fu Xicheng did; his refined and elegant face carried a hint of a smile.

"Don't worry about it so much. You can tell Xie Linzhou about Meng Shuyu's blind date. If Xie Linzhou cares about her, he will definitely go and confront Meng Shuyu."

Jiang Yuning thought Fu Xicheng's words made sense, but as Meng Shuyu's best friend, she didn't want to reveal her whereabouts. She hesitated for a long time, wondering whether she should meddle in other people's business.

Fu Xicheng placed one hand on the steering wheel and turned it slightly.

A smile played on his lips. "Tell me where they ate, and I'll play the bad guy."

Jiang Yuning glanced at her phone, scrolling through her chat history with Meng Shuyu. She didn't ask her where they were having dinner.

She simply said, "That's not a good idea."

Fu Xicheng didn't respond; he continued driving.

Soon, Fu Xicheng drove the car to his destination.

Jiang Yuning followed Fu Xicheng into the dining area.

When Jiang Yuning's gaze swept over a corner, she hurriedly grabbed Fu Xicheng's arm.

She whispered, "Fu Xicheng, you really know how to pick a place. Meng Shuyu is eating here too."

Fu Xicheng glanced around and noticed that Meng Shuyu was chatting with a man in a suit.

There was no food on the table; they had probably just arrived.

This is a newly opened specialty restaurant in Haicheng. It's Fu Xicheng's first time here, and he plans to bring Jiang Yuning here to try the new dishes.

He stroked his chin, surprised that the place he had chosen was so coincidental, so coincidental that they met Meng Shuyu again. Perhaps this was fate.

He led Jiang Yuning upstairs to the second floor.

While Jiang Yuning was observing the surroundings, Fu Xicheng secretly sent a WeChat message to Xie Linzhou.

At this time, Xie Linzhou was no longer at Twilight Bar. He had gone to a racing club and was just about to race when he saw the message Fu Xicheng had sent him, and he jumped out of the car.

"Damn it, how dare Meng Shuyu go behind my back to see other men? Is she trying to drive me crazy?"

At this moment, Xie Linzhou didn't think too deeply about it. He didn't have Meng Shuyu's contact information, and they probably couldn't even be considered friends.

He stormed off the racing club.

After ordering the food, Fu Xicheng looked at Jiang Yuning with interest and asked, "Would you like to see a good show later?"

Jiang Yuning asked in confusion, "What good show?"

"I told Xie Linzhou about Miss Meng."

Jiang Yuning was taken aback and instantly tensed up. "When did you start meddling in other people's business?"

Fu Xicheng didn't think he had done anything wrong. He took the initiative to explain, "This isn't meddling. I'm thinking about my brother's future. Whether he can get married or not depends on today."

Jiang Yuning curled her lips, not believing Fu Xicheng's nonsense. "Is it really that exaggerated?"

Fu Xicheng pushed the menu in front of Jiang Yuning and said in a nonchalant tone, "I'm just a middleman. The rest is between the two of them. Take a look at the menu and see what you like to eat."

Jiang Yuning lowered her head, first ordered two dishes she liked, and then asked Fu Xicheng if he had any dietary restrictions.

Soon, Fu Xicheng beckoned to the waiter and handed him the menu.

After ordering the food, Jiang Yuning felt increasingly uneasy. She was particularly worried that Xie Linzhou and Meng Shuyu would start fighting as soon as they met, and she was even more worried that Meng Shuyu would suspect that she had betrayed them.

Jiang Yuning didn't dare to think too much about it; she'd just take it one step at a time.

Just then, a loud voice broke the quiet atmosphere in the restaurant.

Fu Xicheng's gaze had already fallen on a certain man downstairs. Jiang Yuning followed his gaze and looked down. Who else could that man be but Xie Linzhou?

How did he manage to get here so quickly?

Is he nearby?
