When Lanni arrived at the restaurant they had arranged, Ah Chen and his fiancée had already arrived.

No one would guess that the very girl who looked innocent was also involved with suspicious activity.
Lanni made her way to the table and apologized as she took a seat opposite them. "I'm sorry I'm late."
"Were you late on purpose? I wouldn't be surprised." Qiao Linyou asked with a hint of sarcasm in her tone, but Lanni had seen it coming. There was no way she would have expected a woman suspected of such activity to actually be kind. It was going to be a hectic task befriending her, Lanni thought. Even so, she had earned the trust of more impossible people before so this was nothing in comparison.
