Seeing her like this, she didn’t seem to be faking it.
She must really be afraid of dogs.
Since she had said as much, he found himself at a bit of a loss, and ultimately he could only support her body and walk in another direction.
After a good while, the little dog finally stopped following them.
It was then that Liu Zheng couldn’t help but sigh and said,
"Alright, you can get down now, the little dog is no longer within your sight."
After hearing this, the woman carefully looked around and confird that the little dog had indeed disappeared; only then did she finally get off Liu Zheng.
She took deep breaths, then started to gently touch her chest.
"Thank you so much, I really didn’t know what to do without your help."
Liu Zheng had not expected to encounter her again under such a fortuitous coincidence.
"If you’re scared, you shouldn’t go out, especially at night. It’s dangerous."
Hearing this, the woman could only shrug helplessly...
"It’s because there was a little issue at the shop, I had to deal with it, otherwise I wouldn’t have gone out late at night."
"I didn’t expect you to be running a shop."
Liu Zheng said teasingly.
Upon hearing this, the woman in front of him imdiately raised her chin and looked at him with that attitude, and then imdiately asked,
"What do you an by that? Are you saying I’m not fit to run a shop?"
"Of course, that’s not what I an. I was just thinking, with your temperant, running a shop..."
Liu Zheng blurted out without much thought.
As he was speaking, he suddenly stopped, sensing that continuing might not be a good idea.
But the woman in front of him seed to have caught the last part of what he’d said, and her expression had turned quite ugly.
"What are you implying? What about my temper? Be clear."
Liu Zheng had no choice but to take a step back and repeatedly raised his hands in a pacifying gesture.
"Nothing, nothing, just consider that I farted."
As he spoke, he felt hungry again.
He wanted to eat sothing quickly and then go back to sleep.
After a nap, it would almost be morning.
"Okay, you go deal with your things; I have to get going because I’ve got things to do."
The woman looked at Liu Zheng and seed a bit dazed.
She had never thought she would one day et a man who looked so similar to him.
She had noticed it the last ti, but back then she had simply thought it was a coincidence.
But she never imagined that she would et him again through such a chance encounter. Could this be fate?
At this mont, her heart felt a bit indulgent, but she didn’t know how to express her feelings.
The man in front of her, seeing her stare so intently, felt a bit surprised and wondered why she was looking at him so fixedly.
Then he imdiately raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.
"What are you looking at? Why are you so engrossed? Is there sothing dirty on my face?"
After hearing this, the woman finally snapped back to reality and gently shook her head as she said,
"It’s nothing, you go ahead with your business."
"Then be careful on your own."
After saying this, Liu Zheng prepared to turn around and leave.
The woman muttered softly,
"But thank you for today."
Although her voice was really soft, Liu Zheng had good hearing and heard what she said right away; he imdiately smiled and nodded as he replied,
"No need to thank ."
After he finished speaking, he went straight to the noodle shop next door.
The woman stood still, watching his departing figure until she beca entranced once again.
How could he look so alike?
So many years had passed.
She had never thought that she would encounter a man who resembled him so closely.
Whether it was his handso face, his features, or his entire being, they were exactly the sa.
It even made her wonder if the two were twins.
Later, she laughed at herself sarcastically.
How could they be twins?
She had known him since they were children, how could she not know? He didn’t have any siblings at all.
Thinking this, Huang ngling could only smile wryly in helplessness.
Then she turned around, ready to head to her own shop.
At this mont, Liu Zheng had just arrived at the entrance of the noodle shop and happily said,
"Boss, the usual."
The owner must be an old acquaintance of his, so without needing further explanation, he knew what he wanted to eat.
Liu Zheng couldn’t help but glance back in the direction he had co from.
But he found that the woman had already disappeared.
She must have left, he supposed.
To et twice in such a short span of ti was indeed a remarkable coincidence.
However, even though they had t twice, he still didn’t know her na.
He didn’t even know what she did for a living or how old she was.
It might have been because it had gotten colder recently, and since it was also the middle of the night, it was naturally chilly, so he couldn’t resist rubbing his hands together to warm them up.
Unexpectedly, the owner then teased him saying,
"What’s up? You know that beautiful woman just now?"
The two had been close to his shop just before, so the owner had seen everything clearly.
Hearing this, Liu Zheng finally snapped back to reality and turned his head to look at the owner.
Instead of answering his question, he asked,
"Do you know her?"
The owner gently shook his head.
"I don’t know her. She seems to have moved here recently. I haven’t really seen her around much."
Liu Zheng wasn’t too interested in this information.
Although there seed to be a connection, it was very faint.
Better to let it go.
"Your noodles are ready. Do you want them to go or will you eat now?"
"I’ll eat here. They taste better fresh out of the pan, and they might not have the sa texture by the ti I get ho."
The owner happily served it into a bowl for him.
"You know best," he said with a smile.
Soon, Liu Zheng was sitting aside, beginning to eat his al.
After he had finished, he hastily returned ho.
Sure enough, as soon as he was full, sleepiness overca him again, and he didn’t resist, imdiately lying down.
It didn’t take long for him to fall deeply into sleep.
For so reason, today she had a very peculiar dream.
In the dream, the woman he had just t, whose na he didn’t even know, constantly stayed by his side.
