It's not too late to meet in the book

Chapter 79 Looking for clues

The first rays of morning sunlight crept through the slits in the curtains, bringing a touch of life to the somewhat cluttered space. Renault sat on the edge of his bed, his brow furrowed, his eyes revealing a firmness and determination. Last night's conversation with Wang Jing weighed heavily on his mind, making it difficult to sleep. He knew the only way to resolve this misunderstanding was to find the truth.

After getting up, Renault quickly dressed and hurried out. He first went to the café Wang Jing frequented, hoping to find some clues there. Inside, soft music and the aroma of coffee blended together, creating a warm and peaceful atmosphere. Renault looked around, searching for anyone who might know Wang Jing or Liya.

He walked to the bar and politely asked the busy barista, "Excuse me, do you know a girl named Wang Jing who often comes here? Or have you seen a girl named Liya?"

The barista looked up at him, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes, and then shook his head. "Wang Jing? Leah? I don't remember her name. There are so many people coming and going here every day, I can't remember so many people."

Renault was unwilling to give up and continued to ask: "Can you recall if anything unusual happened recently? For example, did someone quarrel here, or leave anything strange?"

The barista thought about it and shook his head. "No, everything is normal here."

Renault thanked her and left, feeling somewhat lost. But he knew this was just the beginning, and he couldn't give up easily. He then went to the bookstores and parks Wang Jing frequented, even to the dessert shop she'd mentioned as her favorite, but nothing came of it.

In the dessert shop, Renault tried to strike up a conversation with the clerk. "Hello, I'd like to ask if there's a girl named Wang Jing or Liya who comes here regularly?"

The clerk was a young girl. She looked at Renault with a smile, her eyes full of curiosity. "Wang Jing? I don't think I've heard of that name. As for Leah, there's a girl like that, but she doesn't come here often, and whenever she does, she's in a hurry, as if she has something urgent to do."

Renault's heart moved, and he quickly asked: "Then can you remember when she last came? Or, did she have any special behavior?"

The clerk thought for a moment and said, "The last time she came was probably last Wednesday. She bought a cake and then left in a hurry, as if she was in a hurry. Oh, and before she left, she took a phone call and looked quite nervous."

Renault thanked the clerk and pondered. Leah—that name seemed to hold the key to unraveling the misunderstanding. He decided his next step was to find her and get more information from her.

However, finding Liya wasn't easy. Renault didn't have her contact information or where she lived. He decided to start by searching Wang Jing's social media feed, hoping it might yield some clues. He scrolled through Wang Jing's social media feed, carefully searching for information related to Liya. Finally, in the background of a photo, he spotted the logo of the coffee shop where Liya worked.

Renault immediately headed for the coffee shop, his heart filled with anticipation. As he entered, he looked around and soon spotted Leah, who was busy at work. He took a deep breath and walked towards her.

"Hello, Leah. I'm Renault, Wang Jing's friend." Renault tried his best to make his tone sound calm and friendly.

Leah looked up at him, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. "Reno? What's wrong with you?"

Renault said bluntly: "I want to talk to you about Wang Jing's matter. There are some misunderstandings that need to be untied, and I hope you can help me."

Leah was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, let's find a place to sit down and talk."

The two found a quiet corner to sit down, and Renault began to ask about the misunderstanding. Leah was hesitant at first, but under Renault's sincere request, she slowly opened her mouth.

"Actually, what happened that day was a misunderstanding. I just asked Wang Jing for a favor, but I didn't expect it would cause such a big misunderstanding between you two." Leah's voice was a little low, and she seemed to feel guilty about the misunderstanding.

Renault pressed on, "What exactly is this misunderstanding? Can you explain it more clearly?"

Leah sighed and began to recount the events of that day. It turned out that Leah urgently needed money for a family matter, but she didn't want to ask her family for help, so she sought help from Wang Jing. Wang Jing mistakenly believed that Leah and Renault had a relationship, which led to the subsequent misunderstanding.

After listening to Leah's explanation, Renault suddenly understood. He understood that it was all a misunderstanding, and Wang Jing was angry because she misunderstood the relationship between him and Leah.

"Thank you, Leah. I will explain everything to Wang Jing." Renault stood up and prepared to leave.

Leah also stood up, her eyes filled with apology. "I'm sorry for causing you trouble. I hope you can reconcile."

Renault smiled and nodded. "Yes, thank you."

After saying this, he turned and left the coffee shop, his heart filled with hope and determination. He knew that as long as he explained everything to Wang Jing, the misunderstanding between them would be resolved, and their relationship would become stronger.

The moment he walked out of the coffee shop, Renault took a deep breath of fresh air, as if all the haze had been swept away. He took out his cell phone and prepared to call Wang Jing to tell her the good news.

"Hello, Wang Jing, I found Leah and explained everything clearly. Can we meet? I want to tell you everything in person." Renault's voice was full of anticipation and excitement.

On the other end of the phone, Wang Jing was silent for a while, then said softly, "Okay, let's meet and talk."

After Renault hung up the phone, he felt an indescribable joy. He knew that all his efforts had not been in vain, that the misunderstanding between them would soon be resolved, and that their future was full of infinite possibilities.
