Inside the Western restaurant.
Hu Kun and Manager Wang continued their act of harmony, while An Tong remained mostly silent, occasionally forcing a smile.
However, compared to their earlier enthusiasm towards An Tong, after she rejected them a few times, the attitudes of Manager Wang and Hu Kun subtly changed.
Though they maintained a façade of friendliness, both Hu Kun and Manager Wang were secretly belittling An Tong's qualifications and status, trying to make her realize how fortunate she would be to be with Hu Kun.
Finally, after enduring an uncomfortable lunch, An Tong tried to leave, but was still held back by Manager Wang, insisting that she accompany Hu Kun for a walk no matter what she said.
While speaking, Manager Wang wore a smiling face, but her words were undeniable.
An Tong, by nature, was not good at directly refusing and had a gentle and calm demeanor, making her easily manipulated by Manager Wang.
