Steal my heart by Savannah Kade

Chapter 214 You Are in Love, Right?

"Sorry."

The man moved gracefully and put down his tea cup.

But... is that it? The woman standing beside him looked at him in astonishment. It was her cup, and she had not ever seen such a person's behavior before. For such a highly personal item like the mug, was it normal to use these kinds of items back and forth between strangers?

Somewhat annoyed, "Mr. ... Lo, is it? I can lend you the recliner, but it did not seem good for Mr. Lu to use a personal item like a cup without asking. Or was it that Mr. Lo had the habit of drinking from a stranger's cup?"

"Don't be annoyed," Leon chuckled lightly and held his hands up, smiling at her and soothing, "I was just thirsty, and I didn't know that you used this cup. Otherwise, I would have asked for your opinion anyway. Sorry if this made you feel uncomfortable, I didn't mean it."

The words at first sounded like they were sincere, but upon listening carefully, one would realize that the man called Leon Lo in front of her had no sincerity to apologize at all.

What did he mean by "will ask for your opinion"? If you know she was the one using the cup, why do you need to ask her opinion? Meaning, even if he knew the cup was used by her, he would still use it as long as he asked for her opinion?

"But since I already used the cup, boss, why don't you give me the cup?"

The woman was once again startled, and after a while, she pulled down the expression on her face, looked at Leon, and said indifferently, "No matter how you look at it, you look like a robber. And, with all due respect, Mr. Lo, has anyone ever said that you're actually quite shameless?"

As a boss, it was indeed rare to speak so rudely to a customer, but... she had long since passed the age where she still had to stoop down her level for someone else.

Leon also smiled when she said that, instead looked at the woman in front of her with great interest, "Then has anyone ever said that you're too direct in your words, boss?"

"If you're trying to say I talk too harshly, I'm sorry, it just means you have bad luck. I might have been a little more careful if you'd met me a few years back."

"How so?"
