Xiao Tianyu sat at his seat, naturally feeling many strange glances, but it didn't bother him. He was here to eat, not to care about other people's attitudes.
Indeed, Celestial Capital spans thousands of acres, and here, he was indeed an outsider. But so what? Does eating require knowing where soone's from? Impossible.
"Sir, I'm sorry, this seat is taken!" As soon as Xiao Tianyu sat down, a waiter ca over with a smile: "How about another seat?"
"Is this seat thorny?" Xiao Tianyu responded indifferently.
"Not at all!"
"Then why can't I sit here? Do you open for business just to chase custors away?" Xiao Tianyu's voice grew cold.
"Sir, you're joking. In the service industry, the custor is always right. It's just for your own good, better to change seats. To be honest, this seat is reserved for Miss Gu Lingyue of the Lingyue Group, and she's involved with the prominent young master of the Li Group..."
"Alright, I get it. You an soone might co to ask to leave later, right?" Xiao Tianyu interrupted: "Bring the nu!"
"Sir, are you sure you want to sit here?" At this mont, the manager walked over with a smile: "I'm saying this for your own good. They're really not to be trifled with!"
"Do I look easy to deal with? If they don't co, fine. If they do, ask them to find another seat!"
"This..."
"Didn't you hear ? Bring the nu!"
Hearing this, the waitress glanced at the manager, who nodded. The waitress's beautiful eyes flickered, as she watched Xiao Tianyu scan the nu on his phone. She smiled and said, "Please wait a mont!"
Xiao Tianyu ignored her. If the seat was occupied, fine. But with nobody there, yet still claid, naturally vexed him. Giving up a seat wasn't a problem, but leaving it empty and others not allowed to sit was a bit ridiculous, wasn't it?
At that mont, the surrounding crowd showed interest in Xiao Tianyu's decision, a bit surprised by his choice.
"This guy's really bold. Isn't he afraid of being thrown out today? Forget Gu Lingyue, just Li Kun, one of the four notorious guys chasing Gu Lingyue here—no one dares ss with him!"
"No kidding, Li Kun's dad is a big shot in Celestial Capital, one of the top ten multinational corporations' CEOs!"
"Either way, this guy's likely in for trouble today!"
"... ..."
In the restaurant, many people spoke up, whereas Xiao Tianyu seed not to hear. Soon, the food he ordered was brought over by the previous waitress, who smiled and said, "Sir, enjoy your al!"
Sir, please finish quickly and leave before Li Kun cos, or else… you're in for it.
Of course, this was just the waitress's thoughts. She hoped Xiao Tianyu would leave quickly after eating, avoiding a confrontation with Li Kun.
Xiao Tianyu ignored her and picked up his chopsticks, savoring the al. Although it was ordinary food, he had to admit it tasted great. It was no wonder this ordinary restaurant attracted so many dignitaries.
At this mont, a stunning beauty walked in from the entrance, holding a limited edition VS handbag. She was a woman of sophistication, about 24 years old, dressed in professional attire, exuding the aura of an ice queen executive.
Her appearance drew many eyes. Soone exclaid, "Gu Lingyue is here, but why isn't Li Kun? Has he given up on pestering her?"
"No way, Li Kun is tenacious. Wherever Gu Lingyue goes, he follows. How could he not be here?"
"... ..."
With people talking around, Xiao Tianyu acted as if he couldn't hear. Though his seat was ant for two people, Gu Lingyue walked straight towards him.
Her beautiful eyes glanced at Xiao Tianyu with slight puzzlent. Is this guy unafraid of death, or has no one warned him?
"Miss Gu, you're here!" the manager said with a smile. Gu Lingyue nodded, "As usual, please."
"Understood!" The manager replied with a smile. Soon, a waitress brought a light dish and placed it in front of Gu Lingyue, then gave Xiao Tianyu another strange look. Can he still sit there?
Previously, those who sat in this seat never ended well, with so ending up in the hospital every month. Over ti, this seat beca taboo within the restaurant, accompanied by the saying: "Cherish your life, stay away from the goddess."
But still, so misguided people insist on sitting here. To many, Xiao Tianyu was like lighting a candle in a bathroom, courting death.
Gu Lingyue sat across from Xiao Tianyu, dining while occasionally glancing oddly at him.
Yet, she couldn't help but be slightly dazed by his absurdly handso face. Xiao Tianyu had no flaws in his looks. If there was a flaw, it was that he was too handso.
Even more surprising for Gu Lingyue was that from start to finish, Xiao Tianyu continued eating, treating her like thin air, which left Gu Lingyue feeling a slight disappointnt.
She, Gu Lingyue, considered an ice queen executive of her generation, daughter of the Lingyue Group, a dream girl for many n—marrying her ant at least saving decades of effort.
Yet today, here she was simply ignored by soone.
Not only that, but he even occupied the infamous taboo seat in the restaurant.
"Don't you know you can't sit there?" Finally, Gu Lingyue couldn't help but speak, her voice holding a hint of coldness. She was reminding him—also for his safety.
"Is it yours?" His tone was very flat.
Xiao Tianyu slowly lifted his gaze, making Gu Lingyue pause. His eyes were clear, without the usual wicked intentions other n had, those wishing to pin her down straightaway.
"I'm doing this for your good!" After a while, Gu Lingyue finally said.
"So, it's not yours!" With that, he resud eating.
Gu Lingyue was speechless, her beautiful eyes dumbly watching Xiao Tianyu. Is he treating my kindness as rubbish?
"Don't look at like that!" Xiao Tianyu said while eating.
How did you know I was looking at you without looking at ? Gu Lingyue's eyes flashed a hint of embarrassnt, continuing, "You don't know !"
"I don't know." He replied simply.
