Ye Chen had suddenly appeared behind him, frightening the middle-aged man. When he snapped back to his senses, he said while shaking his head and rolling his eyes, "Who said I'm following you? Are you saying that just because we're taking the same road?"
"Really?" Ye Chen snickered and stopped bothering to ask. He squeezed his hand that was on the man's shoulder softly.
The middle-aged man shrieked immediately as a crack was heard, "S-stop squeezing. I-I'll talk!"
Only then did Ye Chen let him go.
The middle-aged man had been following him for a long time. In fact, he had been following them from faraway since they exited the Longxi bus station. Ye Chen found out about his presence through his Divine Consciousness.
However, since he did not sense any hostility from him, he did not perform the Soul Searching Tactic on the man.
