Shi Yi randomly made up a lie, her smile not reaching her eyes, "My friend had something come up last minute and couldn't make it. We'll have to reschedule for another time."
"I see." Leng Yixiu, being who he was, naturally knew Shi Yi was lying, but he didn't expose her. Instead, he took the menu from the waiter, casually ordering a steak and a cup of coffee.
Seeing Leng Yixiu's stance, Shi Yi knew that this man probably wasn't going to leave anytime soon. Although she didn't want to dine at the same table as Leng Yixiu, she couldn't bring herself to have a falling out with him either.
So, she could only let Leng Yixiu do as he pleased. She mentally prepared herself, thinking if Leng Yixiu wanted to eat there, he could go ahead, and she would simply ignore him.
With that in mind, Shi Yi lowered her head and continued eating her meal, thinking the sooner she finished, the sooner she could slip away.
