At Luofeng’s table, he had already asked the waiter for a child seat for Tuan Tuan.
After all, he was quite worried about such a naughty child.
Initially, Tuan Tuan was reluctant. She tried to act cute and wheedle her way out of it, insisting she didn’t want to sit in the child seat...
But in the end, due to Luofeng’s firmness, she gave in and sat as arranged.
Lin Wanting watched Tuan Tuan’s obedient behavior, a complex emotion in her eyes.
To accommodate little Tuan Tuan, Luofeng chose dishes with mild flavors, like stead or salt-and-pepper preparations.
Spicy food? Luofeng considered it off-limits. Curious children might want to try adult flavors, only to end up with a stomach ache from the spiciness... Besides, seafood like this was best enjoyed in its original flavor; too much spice would just ruin a good ingredient.
Soon, the stead Australian Lobster arrived at the table.
Tuan Tuan gazed at the large lobster on the table with anticipation.
She seed to really like shrimp.
Luofeng had ordered two large lobsters.
He pushed one of them over to Lin Wanting, then picked up the shell crackers and began to work on the lobster shell.
In about a minute, Luofeng had extracted the lobster tail at. After breaking it into smaller pieces, he placed it in Tuan Tuan’s bowl.
"Thank you, Brother Luo Feng," Tuan Tuan thanked him obediently.
"You’re welco. Eat slowly," Luofeng replied.
"Okay, okay, Tuan Tuan is eating now! The shwimp is shuper-duper yummy!" Tuan Tuan declared, not holding back and starting to eat with big mouthfuls.
Luofeng glanced at the sowhat clumsy Lin Wanting and offered, "Ms. Lin, do you need so help?"
Lin Wanting, sitting upright, blushed slightly with embarrassnt and replied, "I can do it myself..."
"No, you’re not doing it right." Luofeng found it painful to watch. If she keeps mangling it like that, she’ll waste the at.
Lin Wanting looked at the Australian Lobster she had mangled and felt a pang of regret for the ingredient...
Finally, embarrassed, she pushed the lobster towards Luofeng. "Alright then, I’ll have to trouble you, Mr. Luo."
"It’s fine."
Luofeng smiled faintly. A guy’s strength is certainly greater, but this is more about skill. You get used to it if you eat it often. But Luofeng didn’t know if Lin Wanting seldom ate lobster, or if she always had soone to help her with the shells, hence her lack of experience.
Just as Luofeng finished preparing the second lobster, General Zhao from Luo Lin’s table approached, holding a wine glass. He gave Lin Wanting a polite look. "Hello, Ms. Lin."
"Ah?" Lin Wanting looked at General Zhao in confusion.
"Ms. Lin, I am Zhao Guangming from Hongda Group. We have t before, and I am delighted to see you again." General Zhao didn’t seem embarrassed that she didn’t recognize him and proceeded to introduce himself.
"Oh, so it’s Mr. Zhao?" Lin Wanting didn’t rember him at all but responded with a lukewarm acknowledgnt.
General Zhao didn’t seem to mind Lin Wanting’s attitude. "Ms. Lin, I’d like to propose a toast to you. I’ll drink mine first."
"Mm..." Lin Wanting responded perfunctorily, lifting her glass and taking a small sip, clearly not intending to stand.
But General Zhao kept stealing glances at Lin Wanting’s 0D black silk stockings.
Those legs were truly exquisite. Though, General Zhao actually preferred the flesh-toned stockings Lin Wanting had worn last ti.
"Well then, Ms. Lin, I’ll get going and not disturb your al any longer."
"Mm, alright," Lin Wanting nodded.
Luofeng, having finished preparing the lobster, pushed it over to Lin Wanting.
This scene, however, was witnessed by General Zhao as he was leaving; his gaze kept drifting back to those 0D black silk stockings.
He wished he could reach out and cop a feel right then and there.
"Mr. Luo, thank you," Lin Wanting said politely.
Of course, it was just a simple thank you, but Luofeng felt unexpectedly flattered at that mont. He hadn’t thought much of it before. But now, Luofeng knew that Lin Wanting was definitely an ice queen type of beauty. Just now, when his father’s guest ca over, she had rely given a noncommittal ’Mm’ and a nod.
But wait... Luofeng felt like he’d missed sothing obvious. This Zhao Guangming said he was from Hongda Group when he introduced himself, right? And he’s Father’s guest? Does that an Father’s project is with Hongda Group? But Hongda Group is a major national corporation, isn’t it? For soone from there to be so polite to Lin Wanting? Just what is Lin Wanting’s background? So, this ordinary-looking little girl he’d casually saved... turns out her mother is actually a big shot? Is this the part where identities are revealed? Shouldn’t he, Luofeng, be the one revealing a hidden, powerful identity? How did it get reversed? Still, whatever Lin Wanting’s background was, what did it have to do with him? Luofeng was just here to farm Attribute Points and rewards. He was just a young man with a cheat system, that’s all.
After dealing with the two large lobsters, Luofeng said, "You two have the tail at, it’s better. I’ll eat the tomalley, alright?"
"No way! Tuan Tuan wants to eat the yellow stuff too!"
Kids are like that, always thinking what adults save for themselves is better. Even when adults have already given them the best parts.
"Little kids aren’t supposed to eat this, you know," Luofeng said with a smile.
Tuan Tuan imdiately pouted and started to whine.
Seeing this, Luofeng chuckled helplessly. He scooped up a small spoonful, blew on it to cool it down, and said, "Alright then, just one bite for the little one."
Tuan Tuan’s face lit up imdiately. She first chirped "Mhm!" then gobbled down the tomalley in one bite.
After they finished the two Australian red lobsters, another dish, a stead Crystal Crab, was brought over.
Luofeng got back to work cracking shells.
First, he prepared a crab claw for Tuan Tuan, then did the other one and pushed it to Lin Wanting.
Not far away, General Zhao, at another table, kept glancing over. Curious, he asked, "Old Luo, what’s the relationship between your son and Miss Lin Wanting?"
"This..." Luo Lin paused. He knew full well that Zhao Guangming’s solicitous attitude was all because of Lin Wanting.
"General Zhao, why don’t you take a look at this news report?" Luo Lin then played the video of Luofeng saving Lin Wanting’s daughter at the mall.
After Zhao Guangming finished watching, he sighed. "Old Luo, your luck is just too good."
Zhao Guangming continued, "Your proposal, make it a bit more detailed..."
Luo Lin couldn’t help but grin. He understood Zhao Guangming’s implication. What was once a slim hope now seed like a certainty.
