Xingtie: My silly online friend is actually a raccoon!

Trouble has arrived.

Faced with such a stunningly beautiful woman suddenly striking up a conversation, Lu Ze knew without a doubt that she was there to cause him trouble.

Regardless of the other party's purpose, they are the kind of people who are very troublesome to deal with.

Topa completely disregarded what Luze thought.

She first pulled out a chair and sat down, then picked up the chopsticks on the table and gracefully picked up a slice of beef roll and put it in her mouth.

With her slightly parted red lips and slow, deliberate chewing, her exquisitely beautiful face, coupled with her eye-catching outfit, instantly attracted the attention of a group of college students around her.

Several boys stared so intently that they almost drooled, and it took several nudges from their companions to bring them back to their senses.

Topa slowly savored the spicy hot pot in her bowl, seemingly oblivious to everyone else.

Having grown accustomed to delicacies, she occasionally indulged in food made with chemical seasonings—a kind of alternative way of reminiscing about the past and appreciating the present.

Back then, her hometown couldn't even get a clean drink of water; the land was polluted, and the air was filled with a pungent, sour smell.

In comparison, Earth's environment can be described as paradise.

If it weren't for the company's help in improving the environment of her hometown, she would probably be dead on that polluted, abandoned planet by now.

There's no chance of sitting here eating spicy hot pot anymore.

Thinking of this, Toppa's smile softened even more.

The three people, each preoccupied with their own thoughts, silently finished the food in their respective bowls.

After finishing his meal, Toppa didn't leave. He just sat there quietly, watching Luze.

Seeing her like this, Lu Ze sighed silently.

He knew that this problem had to be solved.

This woman is clearly the type who won't act until she sees a clear benefit; dragging things out like this is exhausting for both of them.

So he turned to An Linyue and said, "You should go back to the classroom first! This young lady probably has something to talk to me about."

An Linyue didn't say anything, but looked at Lu Ze with a "see, just as I thought" look, then silently got up, went to the front desk to pay the bill, picked up her schoolbag, and left without looking back.

After watching her walk away, Lu Ze turned to Topa and asked directly, "Speak! Who are you? What do you want from me?"

"You can call me Topa." The woman put down her chopsticks, smiled, and introduced herself. "I do have something to discuss with you."

She paused, glanced around, and gestured, "But... are you sure you want to talk here?"

Lu Ze followed her gaze and glanced at the people around him; everyone was looking in their direction, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

There's no way around it, Toppa is just too dazzling; wherever he goes, he's the center of attention.

Luze gave Toppa a deep look.

Toppa had never met her in person, but Luze had heard Xingbao talk about her.

She had previously dealt with Starbucks as a debt collector for Belloberg and was a senior executive in the strategic investment department of Interstellar Peace Corporation.

However, Xingbao's evaluation of her was surprisingly good. She said that although this person represented the company's position, she had a bottom line in her actions and was not the type to do anything for profit.

Therefore, Lu Ze lowered his guard a little.

"Come to my house!" Lu Ze stood up. "No one's home."

"Mr. Lu Ze, may I take this as an implication to me?"

Toppa raised his head, a meaningful smile curving his lips, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

"Come if you want, don't come if you don't!"

Lu Ze said those words irritably and turned to leave.

Toppa chuckled as he watched his slightly disheveled figure, then quickly got up and followed him.
