Chapter 172 - They Met (2)
Chapter 172 – They Met (2)
Xu Nuan sipped on her coffee and was attentively listening to Jia Fei's stories that she was telling to Luo Dan. Her lips curled into a dazzling smile as she couldn't believe that she was sitting so close to her girls. She thought that she won't be able to see them ever again.
After she was reborn as Xu Nuan, she was trying to go back to her life by getting back with Qin Ju but after finding out what he did to her, the confidence that she had that nothing has changed and everything will go back to normal crumbled into pieces.
She was afraid that it would be difficult to mingle with the same old people with this new face of hers, that's why she changed her mind. She didn't want to go back to her old life, same stardom, same scandals every day, and never-ending betrayals. That's why she wanted to open her own entertainment company rather than working as an idol herself. However, who would have thought that rather than a CEO, she would end up becoming an artist manager?
She was in her thoughts and dropped her phone. " Ah!" she cried out seeing her phone dropping on the floor for the third time this week. 'I can't continue like this. I am not the same as before, I am not loaded like before to change my phone to the latest model just because I got bored with the other one.' she sighed while picking up the phone.
However as she was about to get up, she noticed something unusual about the guy sitting in front of her. She squinted and noticed that he was holding his phone down, and was pointing towards Luo Luo. His actions seemed suspicious so she used her phone to take a picture of him.
She casually sat back and opened her phone casually. She pretends to check her phone and keeps her calm. Upon zooming in on the picture, her eyes widened in shock seeing that he was taking under-skirt shots of Luo Dan.
"This *&^$^%." she cursed under her breath and gritted her teeth.
SLAM..!!
The man who was secretly taking pictures of Luo Dan was startled when the girl sitting behind him stood up suddenly, making a loud noise by slamming the table. He immediately clutched his phone tighter and placed it on the table casually.
Xu Nuan smirked seeing him pretending to be casual and scoffed in disgust. She side-eyed the man and walked towards the counter. " How may I help you Madam?" the waitress asked.
" Can I get a glass of chilled water, with lots of ice?" Xu Nuan asked, which confused the girl who was taking her order. The weather was chilly and cold. Everyone was ordering hot choco or coffee to warm their bodies yet this lady was asking for a glass of cold water.
" Y…Yeah. Sure. Just a moment please." After a minute, the waitress brought a glass of chilled water with lots of ice in it just as she had asked for. Xu Nuan smiled at her and took the glass.
She looked at the man who was now not even bothered with her presence and was back again taking pictures of Luo Dan.
'Seems like you're too hot in this cold weather. Let me cool down your temperature a bit.' she smirked and flipped her hair back before walking towards the man's table.
" Ahh…Ouch!! I am so sorry. Are you okay?" While walking past him, she pretended to twist her ankle and poured the contents of her glass onto the man's head, drenching him with the icy cold water. She smirked when his phone fell onto the ground and got wet with the water.
" AHH.." The man was startled when she suddenly poured cold water on him, drenching his sweater with water filled with ice.
"Are you blind? Can't you walk properly? And who drinks water with ice in this weather?" He snapped at her. He was shivering due to the cold and wiped himself with tissues that he picked from the table.
Jia Fei and Luo Dan who were talking were interrupted when they saw the man shouting and grumbling while wiping himself with tissues.
Xu Nuan's lips curled into a smirk as she quietly picked up the phone from the ground and exclaimed in shock, " Oh My!! Your phone has gotten wet as well. I hope it's not broken. I will compensate you for your phone. Let me see if it's even working or not." she said while trying to open the phone to see if it's working fine or not.
" No need. No Need." the man waved his hand irritatingly, without lifting his head.
However, when he heard his phone unlocking, his eyes widened in shock. He doesn't have a phone lock, so when she opened his screen, she saw the camera open on the phone.
" You…You!! Give me my phone. Give it to me." The man's eyes grew in shock when he saw Xu Nuan holding his phone, opening its screen. " Aish," He gritted his teeth and lunged over to take it back but she dodged him and waved his phone, " You want it? But what to do? I have no intention of returning it to you." she crossed her arms in front of her chest and smirked.
" Return my phone to me when I am being nice. Since you're a girl, I won't stretch this matter." He said, making her chuckle.
" Hah! Do you think you have the right to say that? Even though you're not stretching this matter, I will do it. Call the police!" She turned to Luo Dan and said.
Luo Dan stared at Xu Nuan confusingly and wondered what the girl was trying to do. She wants her to call the police? For what?
Jia Fei frowned and understood what's happening when she saw the man looking towards them nervously and tried to take the phone back from the girl.
" I'll do it." She said, making him panic even more.
As she was calling the police, the man glanced at Xu Nuan who looked at Jia Fei momentarily and snatched the phone from her and pushed her to the ground.
" Ahh!!" Xu Nuan was thrown on the ground but before she could fall on the ground, Jia Fei held her on time, preventing her from the bad fall.
"You okay?" Jia Fei asked concerningly.
Xu Nuan nodded and looked towards the man who was running, " But this is not the time for this." She gritted her teeth and stood up back on her feet again.
She ran behind the man to catch him who was about to leave the cafe but before he could pull the door, it was pushed open from the outside and he fell onto the ground with a thud.
" Why are you in so much hurry, Mister?"
