Chapter 9: Restaurant Encounter
"Um."
Lu Yiran responded and sat down at the main seat to eat breakfast. Mu Nanyan looked at the amount of breakfast on the table and was shocked.
"That's a lot. Can Mr. Lu and I eat this much?"
The housekeeper seemed to know what Mu Nanyan was thinking and said:
"Madam, I don't know what you like to eat, so we prepared a variety of breakfasts. You can tell us what you like to eat, and we won't prepare so much later."
Mu Nanyan was suddenly touched, because when she was at the Mu family, they didn't care what she wanted to eat, and sometimes they simply didn't cook for her. Here, although she and Lu Yiran were a fake couple, Lu Yiran would give her the respect she deserved, and the servants and housekeepers were very nice to her and really treated her like a young lady.
"Thank you, butler. Just prepare a Chinese breakfast for me later."
"Okay, Madam, please enjoy your meal."
The butler left after he finished speaking, fearing to disturb the two people's meal. Lu Yiran, who was sitting at the main seat next to him, said nothing and just lowered his head to drink his coffee, as if none of this had anything to do with him.
Mu Nanyan hesitated for a long time, but still said thank you to Lu Yiran.
"Mr. Lu, thank you."
Lu Yiran raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
"Why are you thanking me?"
"I know they wouldn't be so nice to me if it weren't for your instructions."
"Yeah." Lu Yiran responded indifferently, and then said, "Don't call me Mr. Lu at home in the future. You have to get used to being Mrs. Lu. Later you have to pretend to be in love in front of your grandparents. If you call me Mr. Lu all the time now, what will you do in the future?"
"What should I call you then?"
Mu Nanyan was confused and didn't know what to do. Lu Yiran was amused by her appearance. But he still wanted to tease her and said:
"We two have a marriage certificate, what do you want to call it?"
"husband?"
Mu Nanyan blurted out subconsciously, and only realized what she said after she finished shouting, and her face turned red instantly.
"Fuck, what am I talking about? How could he possibly let me call him husband? I'm done for. He wouldn't misunderstand that I like him, would he?"
Lu Yiran, who was drinking coffee, was also shocked by her calling him husband and almost choked on his coffee. Fortunately, he kept his composure because he didn't want to embarrass himself in front of this woman.
"Is this woman so open-minded? She actually calls me husband directly?"
Mu Nanyan quickly tried to smooth things over, she didn't want to be confronted by Lu Yiran.
"Then...then I will call you Mr. Lu from now on."
"It's up to you."
After this topic, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere at the table was a little awkward. Mu Nanyan felt that eating in such an atmosphere made the breakfast on the table instantly lose its flavor.
She quickly finished her breakfast and said to Lu Yiran who was still drinking coffee:
"Mr. Lu, I'm done eating. Take your time. I'll go upstairs first."
"Um."
Lu Yiran replied calmly, and Mu Nanyan turned around and went straight back to her room. She remembered that she was going out to dinner with Tang Yutong today, so she went upstairs to change into a dress, put on some light makeup, and prepared to go out.
When she went downstairs, Lu Yiran was no longer in the restaurant. She didn't think much about it and took a taxi directly to Love Song Cottage.
On the way, Tang Yutong sent a WeChat message
[Yanyan, have you gone out? ]
Already in the car.
[OK, then we'll meet at the entrance of Love Song Cottage.]
After saying that, Tang Yutong sent Mu Nanyan an emoticon package of "I love you". Mu Nanyan smiled and did not reply. She put away her phone and concentrated on looking at the scenery outside.
Love Song Cottage
As soon as Mu Nanyan got off the car, Tang Yutong saw her, ran over excitedly and hugged her.
"Yanyan, you're finally here. I'm almost starving to death."
"You didn't have breakfast again today!"
"Of course I'm going to have something delicious for lunch today, so I have to save some space for myself."
"Stop it, you must have overslept."
"Hey, why are you exposing me? I only woke up around nine in the morning."
Tang Yutong smiled embarrassedly. She got up, tidied herself up, and put on makeup, but it was almost too late. How could she have time to eat breakfast?
"Okay, come on in. I can see you can't wait."
"Go, go."
The two walked into the restaurant together, and a waiter came up to greet them: "Hello, ladies, do you have a reservation?"
"Yes, Tang Yutong."
After Tang Yutong reported her name, the waiter took them to a private room. After the two ordered their dishes, the waiter left and the two began chatting happily.
Meanwhile, Lu Yiran finished his breakfast, changed his clothes, and headed out. He had to work on this weekend, so he had a lunch date with Huashi Group's president's daughter, Hua Wuchang, to discuss their potential collaboration. They were also having lunch at the Love Song Cottage.
After he arrived at the place and saw the environment of the restaurant, he knew that the discussion of cooperation today was fake and that the real purpose was to date him. Because this restaurant is a popular check-in restaurant for internet celebrities, usually couples or groups of girls come here. Who would discuss cooperation in such a place?
Lu Yiran walked in, reported Hua Wuchang's name and entered the box. At this time, Hua Wuchang had already arrived.
"Hello, Mr. Lu. I've heard a lot about you."
Hua Wuchang stretched out her hand while speaking. Her voice was so sweet that other boys would be hooked by it, but Lu Yiran just felt annoyed when he heard it.
"Hello, Miss Hua."
Lu Yiran simply responded without extending his hand, showing no intention of shaking her hand. He simply walked over to the side and sat down. Hua Wuchang felt a little embarrassed by being left out, but she couldn't say anything. She could only withdraw her hand, awkwardly sit on the other side of the seat, and then start chatting with Lu Yiran again.
However, Lu Yiran didn't hear a word because he heard a familiar voice.
"This voice... seems to be Mu Nanyan's? Why is she here? Did she follow me here?"
Lu Yiran thought to himself, yes, the box next to him was the one where Mu Nanyan and Tang Yutong were. There was only a screen between the two boxes, and the person behind Lu Yiran was Mu Nanyan.
At this time, Mu Nanyan and Tang Yutong were having a great chat.
"Yan Yan, let me show you a handsome guy. He's a new artist who just debuted. He's handsome, right?"
Tang Yutong held up the phone and handed it to Mu Nanyan. Mu Nanyan took a look.
"He is indeed very handsome, but you are still so superficial. You like the guy who looks muscular when he is stripped and thin when he is dressed."
"Of course, who can resist a man with eight-pack abs?"
"What if my partner doesn't have eight-pack abs?"
"No way, I can't be in a relationship with him without eight-pack abs."
"I hope you remember what I said today."
"I do remember it."
"By the way, Yanyan, is there still no news about Su Muyang?"
