Chapter 67: Disappointment 2

Amy Shen was a bit disappointed at how things turned up for her, but she will not let it damp her appetite because she had to eat alone.

Even before this, if her brother had things to do, Amy Shen will eat alone, so there was no reason why she should feel sad because Jin canceled last minute with her.

She looked beautiful tonight; it would be such a waste if she were sad. With that in mind, Amy Shen decided to just eat in the Misty bar alone. She called for the waiter and placed her order.

Amy Shen was busy taking pictures of her meal, and she basically ignored everyone around her. Since most of them came in pairs or groups, Amy Shen did not want to attract attention to being alone there.

But people noticed a beautiful girl no matter if she was alone or with her friends. It was hard not to see Amy Shen, most men who came in groups had been eyeing her for sometimes, but since Amy Shen did not pay any attention to them, they have yet to make any move to approach her.

A group of four men came to the bar, and as they walked towards their designated table, one of them went to the table where Amy Shen was seated.

"Amy?" The man tried calling her.

Amy Shen lifted her head and smiled. "Ling Qi!" She gave him a relieved smile and looked around him. "Are you alone?"

Thinking that Ling Qi was alone, Amy Shen felt that she could invite him to dinner so both of them will not have to eat alone, but her smile faltered when Ling Qi pointed to a table with three men.

"I'm with my bros over there. Are you alone?" Ling Qi did not see a trace of another person at Amy Shen's table.

"Unfortunately, I am. Something came up last minute, so my friend had to pass." Amy Shen tried hard not to sound pathetic.

"Oh, if you don't mind, I can accompany you." Ling Qi pulled the chair and sat.

"But your friend…" Amy Shen looked at the table with the three men, and the three men were looking at Amy Shen and Ling Qi.

Ling Qi stood up and went to his friends' table. Amy Shen did not know what Ling Qi told them, but they all had a teasing smile while looking at Ling Qi and Amy Shen alternately. Ling Qi came to Amy Shen's table and placed his order too.

Amy Shen was comfortable talking with Ling Qi. She felt that Ling Qi was easy to get along with. Both of them spoke and ate their food happily. Amy Shen already forgot about the things that made her disappointed, but when Ling Qi asked her question, she was reminded by it again.

"Amy, you look beautiful tonight." Ling Qi paused, and he was hesitating about something. "Are you on a date?"

Ling Qi and Amy Shen went out a few times, but there was no development after that. They remained friends, and Ling Qi could wait for Amy Shen.

Amy Shen choked on her food when she heard that question from Ling Qi. She patted on her chest. "No, it's not what you think of. I just have a lot of time; therefore, I did my make up and hair. I am just going to eat with my friend…"

Amy Shen stopped talking because the friend that canceled on her was walking towards the bar with another woman. The woman from yesterday.

Ah, so the 'thing' that came up unanticipatedly was her. Amy Shen felt like laughing. She thought that Jin had important things to attend to. So, the goddess must be important to him.

"And?" Ling Qi waited for Amy Shen to finish her sentences. "You are just going to eat with your friend and?"

"That's all. We planned to eat together but my friend had something more important to do. So here I am." Amy Shen smiled and continued eating her meal.

Even though Amy Shen was smiling, Ling Qi saw that her eyes went in a specific direction when she suddenly paused. Ling Qi turned towards the course and saw the man from the parking lot last time. Amy Shen spoke to the guy in the parking lot.

Is there something between them?

If Amy Shen was affected by Jin's presence at Misty Bar, then she did an excellent job in masking her real feeling. Amy Shen had been nothing but a bundle of joy. She smiled and listened attentively to Ling Qi. Ling Qi wondered if the sad feeling he got from Amy Shen earlier was just an illusion.

Ling Qi excused himself because he needed to go to the washroom. Amy Shen nodded and continued eating her meal.

Jin and Shirley were seated at the table where Jin and his friends, Wu Chen and Jun Liu, sat last time. It was kind of an elite table reserved for an important client.

Shirley Wang apologized a few times because of her abrupt invitation, but Jin assured her that it was alright.

Jin and Amy Shen planned to eat at Misty Bar, but since Jin canceled last minute, he decided that maybe he could bring Shirley Wang there. After all, the food in Misty Bar is excellent.

His eyes could not help but wandered around, not sure what he was looking for. A certain someone's face came into his mind.

Then, he saw her a few tables away from them. And she looked even more beautiful tonight.

Jin rubbed his eyes to make sure he did not see things. But even after he rubbed them for a few times, Amy Shen was still there. Suddenly, his heart filled with guilt.

His leg stood up automatically. Jin wanted to go to Amy Shen and apologized to her, but before he could move a step, a man came to the table and sat the opposite of her. It was the man who went out with Amy Shen from last time.

Jin did not know what the man said to Amy Shen but whatever he was saying must be damn funny because Amy Shen was laughing happily at the man.

Both Amy Shen and the man looked so damn happy and made Jin's heart hurt so much.

"Where are you going?" Shirley Wang asked Jin because Jin stood up all of a sudden.

Shirley Wang looked towards the direction that Jin was looking at, but since Ling Qi blocked Amy Shen from her sight, Shirley Wang did not see any familiar faces.

"It's nothing. I'm just trying to fix my pants." Jin patted off his thigh and sat down.

Shen Jun Shan knew that he has no reason to be sad or angry just because Amy Shen ate dinner with another man. After all, he was the one who ditches her last minute.

But he could not help but thinking that all the smiles and laughter would be directed to him if he did not cancel their plan.

Jin did not know how to explain what he was feeling at the moment, but he thought that his existence was not a big deal to Amy Shen. She was the type of girl that is not dependent to man.

With or without him, Amy Shen could still be happy, and it breaks his heart.
