2399: I’ve Always Known

I’ve Always Known

"Let's talk somewhere else." Qiao Chen reached out and grabbed her wrist. Under Shen Xin's shocked gaze, he pulled her into the elevator and pressed the 13th-floor button.1

The 13th floor was a cafe set up by the hotel.

After entering the elevator, he let go of her hand.

Shen Xin looked at him blankly. She could still feel the warmth of his fingers on her wrist.

"Qiao Chen, where are you taking me?" Shen Xin looked at the button he pressed and frowned. "What do you want to say to me? Can't you say it here?"

Qiao Chen turned to look at her. "Are you in a hurry to go back?"

"No, I…"

"Since you're not in a hurry, then go back later." Qiao Chen paused and added, "I'll send you back later."

Shen Xin kept quiet.

The elevator was very small, and they were very close.

She could smell Qiao Chen's perfume. It was faint and pleasant, not pungent at all.

Shen Xin was stunned.

She remembered that Qiao Chen didn't use perfume in the past.

Why was he using it now?

That was true. Now that he was the Young Master of the Mo family, his basic necessities were different from before.

Neither of them spoke for a while. Shen Xin watched as the elevator went up. She had a lot to say, but she couldn't open her mouth.

The silence was awkward.

Thankfully, the elevator soon reached the 13th floor.

After exiting the elevator, Shen Xin saw that the 13th floor was a cafe and Western restaurant. The moment they stepped out of the elevator, a waiter immediately greeted them.

"Good evening, Mister and Miss."

Qiao Chen told the waiter that they were going to the cafe, and the waiter led them into it.

The cafe was romantically decorated. There was even a small performance stage. At this moment, a blonde foreigner was standing on the stage, playing the violin. The melodious and slow music floated in the air, making people feel like they were at a ball.

Qiao Chen picked a seat and they sat down. Then, a waiter came over.

"Mister, Miss, what would you like to drink?"

"A cup of black coffee for the lady. Oh right, add more milk and sugar to her coffee. She likes sweeter flavors."

"Alright, please hold on."

The waiter left with the order.

Shen Xin was shocked. "You know what I like to drink?"

"Mm." Qiao Chen nodded. "I remember you like coffee sweet. Did I remember wrongly?"

Shen Xin was silent for a while before shaking her head. "Mm, you didn't remember wrongly."

She did like cappuccinos.

She liked the sweet taste. Every time she ordered coffee, she would add another spoonful of milk and sugar.

However, she didn't expect Qiao Chen to remember such details.

How did he remember?

He hadn't paid attention to her before.

"Qiao Chen, can I ask you a question?"

"Mm, ask away."

"How do you know what I like to drink?"

Qiao Chen kept quiet for a few seconds. "I-I've always known."

Shen Xin was stunned. "You've always known?"

"Mm."

"How?"
