One was his close friend, Zhang Manli, who was quite attractive. The two women had long wanted to dine at Shark Fin Palace, but their finances didn't allow for extravagant spending there. Xu Qingqing came here to take photos in the lobby, post them on social media, and see if any admirers would invite her to dine here.
After all, a meal costing tens of thousands wasn't something everyone could afford. Xu Qingqing radiated a murderous intent, while Lin Tianyu's gaze turned cold. He was no longer the obedient follower he had been in his past life; just recently, this wretched woman had made his life miserable. He remembered her shouting about wanting to make soup out of him.
As he looked at this despicable person, he contemplated whether to eliminate her. After all, the apocalypse was approaching, and as long as he did it cleanly, there wouldn't be any issues. Under Lin Tianyu's intense gaze, Xu Qingqing suddenly felt a chill run down her spine and her scalp tingled.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked.
Lin Tianyu withdrew his gaze and replied coldly, "Oh, nothing. I'm just here to eat." For a brief moment, he had wanted to bury her right then and there. However, he wouldn't let her die so easily. He wanted her to experience the despair of the apocalypse slowly—he had plenty of ways to make her suffer after surviving for so long in his past life.
If he acted now, he might end up getting locked up, which would be counterproductive. Hearing Lin Tianyu's distant tone made Xu Qingqing feel something was off. In the past, he had been the type to fawn over her like a dog and would never speak to her this way.
As a top-tier manipulator, Xu Qingqing needed to figure out why Lin Tianyu was here; what if he was a hidden wealthy heir? Just as she was about to ask again, a hearty laugh rang out.
"Hahaha, Mr. Lin! You're still here! You forgot your receipt; here's the invoice for ten thousand!" Zhang Jianjun said as he handed over the receipt before heading back into the hotel to supervise and ensure that this order went smoothly.
"Ten thousand! Lin Tianyu, what did you buy?" Xu Qingqing exclaimed in surprise along with her friend.
Lin Tianyu ignored them and walked away on his own.
Xu Qingqing thought to herself, He must be a hidden rich kid. If I can control him and make him keep fawning over me, who knows, I might get to eat here every day!
"Lin Tianyu, wait for me! Where are you going?" she called out.
Hearing her voice, Lin Tianyu had a plan in mind. "I'm stocking up on supplies. The weather doesn't look good; I'm afraid I won't be able to go out later!"
Listening to Lin Tianyu's words, Xu Qingqing couldn't help but scoff. "Stocking up on supplies? If it weren't for the fact that you have a bit of money, I'd have scolded you already! What an idiot!"
"Can I come with you?" Xu Qingqing said, twisting her waist and speaking in a flirtatious tone.
This was a tactic she often used—casually making a man feel drawn to her so he would become infatuated.
"No, I'll go alone. If you don't follow me, maybe I'll treat you to a meal another time."
"Really? It's a promise!"
Xu Qingqing paused at his words and went back to her own business with her best friend.
Once Xu Qingqing walked away, Lin Tianyu felt a sense of triumph. He had intentionally tricked her into thinking he was hoarding food for an apocalypse. He knew that if the time came, she would come looking for him without him having to find her first!
And those neighbors! It was time to settle some scores with them too!
