The restaurant they had arranged to meet was a very high-end private restaurant. Reservations had to be made six months in advance. But with Nanxun's ability, why would he need to wait in line like everyone else?
Zhu Zhu arrived ten minutes early on purpose and found the seat Nan Xun had reserved and sat down.
Lin Qiao had mentioned this restaurant before, saying that Nanxun used to like it. But since Zhu Zhu and Nanxun got married, Nanxun hadn't been there since. So this was Zhu Zhu's first time there, too.
"Mrs. Nan," the restaurant manager said to Zhu Zhu with a smile, "This seat is Young Master Nan's favorite. So we've been keeping it for him and won't accommodate anyone else."
"Thank you." Zhu Zhu thanked politely.
Unexpectedly, the manager didn't intend to leave and continued, "Mr. Nan hasn't been here for almost a year. I didn't expect him to bring his wife with him today."
Zhu Zhu smiled, she didn't expect it either.
Seeing that Zhu Zhu didn't pay much attention to her, the manager said, "Then I'll go and get busy. Madam, please feel free to do as you please."
Zhu Zhu nodded: "Okay."
…
Nan Xun and Xue Li'er came in side by side around the time Zhu Zhu finished her third glass of water.
From Zhu Zhu's perspective, she could clearly see the two of them getting closer and closer.
What a perfect couple, Zhu Zhu thought. They looked much more compatible than when she and Nan Xun were together.
"Sorry. We're late." Xue Li'er smiled sweetly when she saw Zhu Zhu. "I've been abroad for too long, and I don't know the roads in the capital anymore. My car broke down again, so I asked Nan Xun to pick me up. Do you... mind?"
Zhu Zhu also smiled: "Why not? I don't mind."
Nanxun felt very uncomfortable looking at Zhu Zhu's smiling face. Her smile was too fake and not pretty at all.
"Xun!" Xue Li'er became excited as she sat down. "I didn't expect this restaurant to be the same as it was back then. It hasn't changed at all. Do you remember? We used to eat here all the time. You always said their black truffles were the best."
Xue Lier glanced at Zhu Zhu beside her and said, "Oh! I'm sorry. I get easily excited and talk nonsense when I get excited. Please don't take it to heart."
Zhu Zhu smiled but said nothing. This was their restaurant. Why did they meet here? Did they want her to reminisce about their sweet past?
"Sit down first." Nan Xun said to Xue Li'er, "Don't stand."
"Okay." Xue Li'er responded and sat down next to Nan Xun naturally. "Xun! What should we eat? Are the original signature dishes still available?"
Xun?
What a loving couple! Zhu Zhu gave a wry smile.
Xue Li'er glanced at Zhu Zhu and said to Nan Xun coquettishly, "I forgot again. I can't call you Xun anymore. You're already married. I'm sorry, Zhu Zhu, I used to call him that and I can't change it. If I still call him that in the future, please don't be angry. I'll try my best to change."
Zhu Zhu pulled the corner of her mouth and said, "It's okay. I don't mind. You can call me whatever you want."
Zhu Zhu smiled bitterly in her heart. "How could I care? My heart and my body are yours. Who am I?"
"Let's order." Nan Xun glanced at Xue Li'er and said, "Don't you want to try their signature dish? I asked, and it's the same chef as before."
"That's great. I kept thinking about this taste when I was abroad." Xue Li'er said to Zhu Zhu, "Zhu Zhu, you must try their signature dish. It's delicious."
