Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 1120

Chapter 1120: Chapter 1120: Deliberately Testing Him

Chu Yin and Lin Zhiyi immediately grasped the undertones of the man’s words.

"It’s nothing, we’re just passing by and thought we’d take a look." Lin Zhiyi didn’t expose the man’s lie.

Chu Yin adjusted her sunglasses, smiling lightly, as if to give Liao Yi some face.

The man extended his hand, saying, "I’m Darren."

"Hello."

The two shook hands with the man and then looked at Liao Yi.

Liao Yi said, "Since you’re here, let’s sit down and have a cup of coffee together."

"I happen to have brought coffee beans from abroad, let’s give them a try."

Darren took out a paper bag, which had no markings.

Darren introduced, "These are coffee beans sold by a niche studio abroad; they pursue simplicity, so the packaging is very basic."

Liao Yi glanced at the bag and smiled, "Thank you."

Darren didn’t hand the bag to Liao Yi but instead said, "Let me make coffee for the three beautiful ladies, please wait a moment."

With that, Darren walked over to the nearby water bar.

Lin Zhiyi directly said, "How niche can it be? It’s probably just a cheap corner coffee shop without even a logo."

Chu Yin lowered her voice, "Liao Yi, don’t be fooled by him, he’s two-faced..."

She couldn’t wait to tell Liao Yi what she had just seen outside. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Liao Yi knew the two were anxious, taking advantage of Darren’s focus on making coffee.

She covered her mouth and whispered.

"I know, at the Third Young Master’s place I’ve had good coffee; I can still smell the quality of coffee beans, right? Besides, that bag clearly can’t store coffee beans, obviously bought cheaply."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yin and Lin Zhiyi also relaxed.

Liao Yi was just puzzled, "Why is he looking for me? Look at my place, it doesn’t seem like a place a wealthy person would rent; it’s just ordinary schools around here."

Chu Yin whispered, "Judging by his acting earlier and his outfit, he’s a pro. Approaching you must have a purpose."

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi sized up Darren.

His clothes and accessories were indistinguishable from a major company elite.

Even a one-to-one replica.

Really can’t find a mistake.

Until Darren took two steps and revealed the soles of his shoes.

Lambskin is precious, no wonder he was so irritated earlier when stepping on rotten leaves outside.

Men’s shoes are custom-made, taking time and money.

And the shoes are heavily worn, needing careful handling to last long.

For example, he put sole protectors on.

Those elites aren’t concerned about sole wear.

Besides, living in skyscrapers, with smooth paths, what wear can shoes get except a bit of dust?

Unlike Darren’s soles, even with protectors, they’re still worn.

Showing he mostly walks when going out.

Seems the luxury car he drove is also questionable.

Lin Zhiyi coughed lightly, signaling the other two to look at Darren’s shoes.

Chu Yin gestured to Liao Yi several times.

Liao Yi signaled Chu Yin not to worry; she wasn’t just some naïve little girl.

"Don’t worry, I initially just thought the other person shares interests with me, so I chatted a bit more."

"There’s no such thing as matching interests. It’s mostly man-made." Chu Yin said.

Lin Zhiyi nodded, just about to speak, when the sound of the coffee machine stopped.

Darren came over very gentlemanly with coffee.

"Come, have a taste."

Lin Zhiyi glanced at the coffee cup, supposedly long coffee, but added quite a bit of milk.

How do you taste coffee like this?

Darren unaware of Liao Yi’s surprise, laughed, "Yes, what’s up? You know of it?"

Liao Yi wasn’t sure how to answer.

Darren continued, "I know Sang Group is famous, it’s normal for you to know."

Chu Yin jumped in, "Mr. Darren, you’re impressive, mind sharing which area of sales in Sang Group you work?"

Chu Yin joined in, "Right, I remember Sang Group’s business is broad, being Sales Director must be impressive."

Discussing business properly, Darren’s expression visibly fluctuated.

But quickly adjusted.

"Today we’re here for Liao Yi’s studio, let’s not discuss such formal topics."

"Okay, let’s have coffee and check out the studio." Lin Zhiyi responded with a smile.

Darren stared blankly for a few minutes, then lowered his head to drink coffee.

Liao Yi got Lin Zhiyi’s look, put down the bad coffee, and took them to tour the studio.

Besides teaching students painting, she also hosted some exhibits.

Aiming for exchange primarily, not daring to consider big artists currently.

Having experienced so much with Lin Zhiyi, she has her ideas, being bold.

Thus, Lin Zhiyi and Chu Yin noticed Darren’s art insight confined to famous works, some less-known artists, his speech became monotonous.

Finally excused himself to the restroom and left.

Chu Yin stood before the artwork, raising an eyebrow, "This painting is obviously for fun, yet he nearly deduced life philosophy from it."

Liao Yi whispered, "It’s by primary schoolers, I deliberately put it here."

Hearing this, Chu Yin and Lin Zhiyi understood her meaning.

"Liao Yi, were you testing him?"

"Of course, I said earlier I’m no naïve girl, I have to see if his approach is genuine or fake." Liao Yi seriously said.

Lin Zhiyi praised, "Good on you, but that man does have issues, his art commentary was too standard earlier."
