Chapter 193: A Scheme within a Scheme

"There aren't many girls like you in the world. Well, give me 1.01 million, and I'll sell this to you at cost price. I won't make a profit!" Seemingly touched by Wu Fang's love story, Zhang Liang cried with snot and tears as he placed the jewelry box in Wu Fang's hand.

Unexpectedly saving nearly one million due to her own story, Wu Fang was overjoyed. She thanked Zhang Liang again and again, and she was almost on her knees in gratitude.

The two sides quickly completed the transaction. Zhang Liang carried a card - swiping machine with him. As soon as the money arrived in the account, the system's prompt sounded in Shen Nanyi's mind, indicating that Shen Nanyi's task this time was completed.

Over there, Zhang Liang was still chatting with Wu Fang as if they were kindred spirits. Maybe because she was too engrossed in the conversation, Wu Fang actually took the story as real and regarded herself as the heroine in the story.

It seemed that this was really the first meeting between her and Young Master Zhang after many years.

Holding the pendant in her hand, Wu Fang thought she had got a great bargain. She thanked Zhang Liang again and again before hanging the pendant around her neck and walking in.

Zhang Liang felt a twinge of conscience.

What a nice girl, but why was she a bit mentally off?

After the task was successfully completed, Zhang Liang returned to Shen Nanyi's side.

Looking at the people in front of her, Shen Nanyi felt that there were really too many people around Ji Beichuan.

To show her gratitude to Zhang Liang, Shen Nanyi decided to take Zhang Liang out for dinner.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liang stopped Shen Nanyi, saying that the matter had just begun and was not over yet, so there was no need to rush away.

Shen Nanyi was confused. Then she saw Ji Beichuan walking over from a distance. Zhang Liang left tactfully. At this moment, there was no need for such a big third wheel.

"This is a good spot. Let's just sit here and watch the show." The coffee shop where they were located had a good view of most of the scenes in the opposite Western restaurant, including a certain table.

Ji Beichuan didn't rush to explain. Instead, he thoughtfully ordered a cup of milk tea for Shen Nanyi.

Knowing that Shen Nanyi liked such things, Ji Beichuan remembered them all. If someone else ordered milk tea in a coffee shop, they might have been kicked out long ago, but this person was Ji Beichuan.

Knowing that Ji Beichuan must have prepared a surprise for her, Shen Nanyi was not in a hurry. She sat there and continued to wait. She believed that Ji Beichuan would never disappoint her.

Not long after, a young man appeared outside the Western restaurant. Judging from his age, he should be about the same age as Ji Beichuan, but he had a completely different temperament.

There was a faint smile on his lips, and there was a sweet dimple on his cheek. He looked innocent when he smiled.

He wasn't wearing business clothes but a casual sweatshirt and hip - hop pants, looking very trendy.

Looking at this person, Shen Nanyi was a bit stunned. She turned to look at Ji Beichuan, thinking she must have misseen. Why was Zhang Kai really here?

She had checked before, and Zhang Kai wasn't in City A at all.

"Watch the show." Enjoying Shen Nanyi's look at him very much, Ji Beichuan didn't intend to explain first.

Almost at the same time, Shen Nanyi thought that Ji Beichuan must know the person in front of him.

Now she was even more interested and wanted to know what kind of surprise Ji Beichuan had prepared for her.

Inside the restaurant, Wu Fang double - checked that the pendant around her neck was okay and could be shown subtly. Then she began to wait impatiently for Zhang Kai.

It could be said that Zhang Kai was the person she had carefully selected. As long as she could catch Zhang Kai, her situation would be completely different from now, and no one would ever look down on her again.

After waiting for a while and Zhang Kai still didn't come, Wu Fang began to doubt the information the restaurant manager had given her before. Fortunately, Zhang Kai really came not long after.

Looking at Zhang Kai in the distance, Wu Fang's eyes sparkled. It wasn't the light of admiration but a kind of desire.

Holding the plate in her hand tightly, Wu Fang decided that she must win Zhang Kai over today.

Holding the menu on the plate in one hand, Wu Fang walked over gently, trying to keep calm.

"Sir, hello. This is our menu." When she spoke, Wu Fang's voice was a bit trembling.

Fortunately, Zhang Kai didn't notice. Instead, he complimented that the perfume on Wu Fang smelled nice.

This made Wu Fang very happy. All her careful investigations over the past few days had finally paid off. Zhang Kai really liked this perfume.

Pretending to bend down inadvertently to pick up the pen that had fallen on the ground, Wu Fang's eyes kept looking at Zhang Kai beside her, hoping that Zhang Kai would notice her.

Fortunately, Wu Fang's efforts didn't go in vain. Zhang Kai really cast his eyes on Wu Fang's chest. "The pendant around your neck seems quite nice."

As expected, Wu Fang received Zhang Kai's compliment, which made her almost jump for joy.

As long as Zhang Kai could praise her, the money she spent was worth it.

"Can I take a closer look?" Wu Fang thought the happy things were almost over, but unexpectedly, Zhang Kai spoke again.

Wu Fang nodded shyly and leaned her neck forward a bit. She didn't intend to take off the necklace.

She had spent so much money just to get closer to Zhang Kai. Now that she finally had this opportunity, how could she take off the necklace? Naturally, she just leaned forward.

Zhang Kai didn't mind. He stroked the pendant on Wu Fang's chest with one hand and observed it carefully. From a distance, their actions did look a bit ambiguous.

In the coffee shop, Shen Nanyi sipped the milk tea in her cup unhurriedly. She didn't think Wu Fang could cause any trouble. Since Ji Beichuan came here, she felt that everything must have been carefully planned by Ji Beichuan. Wu Fang wouldn't get any advantage. She just needed to sit back and watch the show.

"May I ask where you got this pendant?" After a while, Zhang Kai withdrew his hand and stared at Wu Fang for a while.

That look made Wu Fang's heart race. It was a sign that her elaborate plan was about to succeed.

"I got it accidentally from a friend." Wu Fang replied calmly, having already thought of this excuse.

"Oh, that's good. Otherwise, I would have thought that I met a beautiful young lady, but she was actually a thief." Zhang Kai suddenly said. Wu Fang was completely confused. Then she watched in a daze as Zhang Kai took out his phone and dialed a number.

Zhang Kai actually called the police, saying that he had lost something.

Although Zhang Kai didn't say what he had lost on the phone, Wu Fang thought it must be related to the necklace around her neck.

Feeling a bit flustered, Wu Fang was anxious because she couldn't leave at this moment.
