Crossing Of Swords

Spend some time.

When Juan said that, a crafty look appeared in his eyes. Kyle, who was perceptive and skilled at

reading expressions, immediately understood what he meant by that.

“In that case, you’ve got to be careful. Make sure that it doesn’t backfire on you instead.”

Juan naturally understood that Kyle’s reminder was out of worry that he wasn’t Sally’s match,

considering her glib tongue.

“Trust me. It definitely won’t backfire on me.”

“I hope so.”

Juan should be meeting with Sally now, right? I wonder what will happen between them. Kyle was quite

curious and wanted to give Juan a call, but he was also afraid that the man was contending with Sally.

After deliberating about it, he decided not to make the call. He placed his phone aside even as his lips

curved into a self-deprecating arc. He felt that he was too concerned about the matter.

Composing himself, he then turned his attention to work.

At that moment, Juan was “crossing swords” with Sally in a luxurious private room in the hotel.

The so-called crossing of swords was actually his attempt to scare her so that she would give up.

Sally was no easy prey either, so she fearlessly played along with him.

“Sally, since you feel that we’re suited for each other, what’s the big deal about us living together now?”

Living together? Hah! In your dreams!

“Even so, we still need to understand each other first. I’m not comfortable living together before

understanding you.”

“Are you really not comfortable, or…” Juan slowly leaned close to her. Placing his mouth inches from

her ear, he continued, “Or… your motive isn’t to be with me at all but something else altogether?”

As he said that, his beguiling eyes were fixated on her unblinkingly. It was as though he wanted to

capture some flaw from her minute expressions.

Sally’s gaze flickered. “I don’t get your meaning, Mr. Juan. Say, what other motive would I have?”

“You know full well what your motive is.”

“I really don’t, so please enlighten me, Mr. Juan.”

Juan said nothing, merely sneering in response.

I just knew that she’s eloquent, and I wouldn’t get anything from her if I were to bandy words with her!

“I’ll enlighten you sooner or later,” Juan declared solemnly.

“Okay! I’ll be waiting, then.” With a faint smile on her lips, Sally picked up the coffee on the table and

savored it somberly.

That round, Juan didn’t get the upper hand. After mulling it over for a while, he flashed a smile at Sally.

“Since you think you’re compatible, should I not allow you to get to know me better?”

“Of course! How would you like to accomplish that, Mr. Juan?”

“Let’s start from understanding my likings. I think only people with the same likings are suited to be

together. I wonder if the things I like are also to your liking?”

“What do you like, then?” Seeing the smirk tugging at his lips, Sally could tell that he was planning

something nefarious.

“You’ll know if you come with me.”

After thinking for a moment, Sally got to her feet. “Sure.”

I want to see what trick exactly he has up his sleeve. And as long as it doesn’t put my life at risk, I’ll

play along with whatever it is, she inwardly resolved.

Juan regarded her condescendingly even as a faint smile hovered over his lips. You agreed so easily,

huh? Well, you’ll be crying later!

The two of them then got up and exited the establishment, one after another. Juan drove in front while

Sally followed behind him. In no time, they arrived at their destination.

At the sight of the signage that read acupuncture treatment room, a thoughtful look entered Sally’s

eyes. Why did he bring me to an acupuncture treatment room? Could it be that he wants to teach me

acupuncture? No, it can’t be that simple. He must have some other plan.

Juan threw Sally a provocative look, thinking to himself, Just you wait! I’ll spell my name backward if

you don’t cry later!
