223 Phantom is me

"My name is Wang Yu, pleased to meet you. These are my friends, Qin Tian and Qiao Sijia."

Wang Yu stood up, smiled, extended his hand to Gao Chao, shaking it, and then introduced Qin Tian and Qiao Sijia to him.

After Wang Yu's introduction, Qin Tian also stood up to shake hands with Gao Chao, while Qiao Sijia simply stood up but did not offer her hand for a shake, merely nodding with a smile toward Gao Chao. Women, they have their reservations.

Once the introductions were over, everyone took their seats. Gao Chao gave Wang Yu and Qin Tian each a glance, picked up a purple clay teacup, gently swirled it in his hand, and slowly said, "Actually, I didn't want to deal with you at first. But in the end, I decided to get to know you. Do you know why?"

Wang Yu smiled faintly, slowly saying, "I'm all ears."
