Shi Qian achieved her goal, but facing Bo Jingyan's questions, she stammered, unsure of how to explain.
She dared not admit that she had been following them around like a stalker.
Upon seeing her reaction, Xia Qingtian smirked, asking nonchalantly, "Surely, you didn't stick around and then follow Jingyan and me here, did you?"
Shi Qian's heart skipped a beat, and her temples throbbed.
"No!" she instinctively denied. "I wasn't following you."
Seeing her denial, the smile on Xia Qingtian's face deepened. "Since you say you weren't following us, could you explain why you suddenly appeared in this restaurant?"
Facing Xia Qingtian's gentle but persistent questioning, Shi Qian's palms and back were covered in a fine layer of sweat, which was quickly chilled by the air conditioning, causing her to uncontrollably shiver.
"Why so quiet? Surely I wasn't right?" Xia Qingtian raised an eyebrow, teasing.
