"Please wait, sir, this table-"
"Can't you see we are about to order? How can a poor b * stard come to a western restaurant and take so long to order, "the man cursed.
"Sorry, sir, coming right away." The waitress gave Jiang Chen an apologetic look as she stuck out her tongue and ran to that table.
"Is your zodiac a tortoise … Dear, what do you want to eat?" The man sitting not far away arrogantly reprimanded the waitress a few words, then changed his face into a "loving" expression as he attentively asked the woman sitting across from him.
Jiang Chen looked at the man's back in shock as his expression turned strange.
[Poor b * stard? Me?]
Then, Jiang Chen looked at Xia Shiyu.
The expression on her face was slightly unnatural as she stared at the lemon water on the table with a horrifying look.
[Is he someone I know?]
Jiang Chen, who was about to "befriend" him, gave up on the idea and instead examined the man with a playful look.
His face was as white as wax, his hair combed with gel had a "trendy" feel to it, and his well-ironed white suit looked like it was worth a lot of money. In summary, other than being a bit of a sissy, the man had a decent appearance.
It was just that this arrogant face was really too annoying.
As to the woman.
Black wavy hair, a delicate face, a red cotton dress, and brown leather boots were lazily crossed on the table. It was impossible to tell her net worth from her outfit, but from her aura, Jiang Chen could vaguely sense that she was born in a noble family. From her narrowed eyes, she seemed to enjoy the feeling of being flattered.
"Vegetable salad is fine." A very lazy voice.
"Okay, don't you need dessert or something? For example, this heart-like- "
"No, it's a bit disgusting." A curvature appeared on her red lips.
The man's expression was slightly stiff, but then a warm smile appeared on his face.
"Okay, I'll have a Thai King fried rice and a bottle of red wine."
"Okay, sir." The waiter endured his arrogant tone and silently wrote down the order in his notebook. Then he picked up the menu and went to the front desk.
It was not the first time she had seen such a hot-tempered customer. Arguing with her would only make life difficult for her salary.
"Clumsy," the man cursed and then looked at the woman "tenderly".
"Xinyan, you're so beautiful." The man said in an extremely mushy tone.
A hint of joy appeared on the woman's face. Her eyes narrowed in satisfaction and her red lips parted slightly.
"My shoes are dirty."
"Huh?" The man thought he had misheard.
"Shoes."
The woman tilted her boots up slightly.
Awkwardness flashed across the man's face, but then he gritted his teeth and actually knelt on one knee. Then he held her boots in his hands and carefully wiped the dust off the top of her boots with a tissue.
The people sitting next to them turned to look at them. Most of the female customers were whispering to their boyfriends with sparkling eyes, while most of the male customers were looking at them with disdain.
However, the man did not care about these gazes and "considerately" wiped her shoes for her.
"Tsk tsk, this is insane." Jiang Chen shook his head.
Seeing his dog-like behavior, Jiang Chen finally understood.
This person should be a sugar baby. But this sugar baby has no dignity at all.
Thinking about this, Jiang Chen also lost interest in him.
Even if you want to slap someone's face, you have to look at the person. He really had no interest in arguing with a dog.
But just as he was about to withdraw his gaze, he was surprised to see that the woman seemed to be looking at him.
The slightly narrowed eyes ignored the man who was polishing her shoes on one knee. Instead, she looked at Jiang Chen with interest as if she was waiting for him to do something.
To the woman's gaze, Jiang Chen only smiled and didn't say anything as he looked away.
Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't respond, the woman raised her hand and yawned as she looked away in disappointment.
The waiter walked over and repeatedly apologized to Jiang Chen and Xia Shiyu. But Jiang Chen didn't make it difficult for her as he ordered with Xia Shiyu.
"Do you know her?" After the waiter left, Jiang Chen took a sip of the lemon water and asked softly.
"… Yes."
Based on her tone, their relationship didn't seem to be the best. [Are they enemies?]
Seeing that Xia Shiyu was not in a good mood, Jiang Chen didn't continue the topic. Instead, he chatted with her about other things and gradually, a smile returned to her face.
"Aren't you curious about my relationship with him?" Xia Shiyu asked abruptly.
"Although I am curious, you seem to hate this topic, so I didn't ask." Jiang Chen shrugged and smiled.
After a brief silence for two seconds, Xia Shiyu looked at the expression on Jiang Chen's face and said coldly.
"He is my ex-boyfriend."
But Jiang Chen's expression was calm. Xia Shiyu didn't know why she felt annoyed. Although she didn't know what kind of expression Jiang Chen would make her feel satisfied.
"But we didn't even hold hands." Subconsciously, she added.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen suddenly burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Xia Shiyu raised her eyebrows and whispered.
"I just think you are cute." Jiang Chen joked.
Xia Shiyu's face instantly turned red. Her cold expression seemed a bit forced.
"So, so strange."
Xia Shiyu muttered in a quiet voice. She lowered her head and bit the straw on the ice cream with her cherry red lips. Her bangs covered the wavering expression on her face.
Halfway through the meal, Jiang Chen suddenly needed to pee, so he went to the washroom.
He washed his face and when he came out, he bumped into the "queen-like" woman.
"Jiang Chen, right?" The woman said with a smile.
"You know me?" Jiang Chen put his hand into the dryer as he replied with a surprised expression.
"The famous president of Future Technology. You are only 22 years old and already have a net worth of ten billion. You are the idol of countless young girls. With such a dazzling aura, how could I not know you?" The woman smiled.
"Ahem, you are flattering me." At least the waitress and the people he bumped into along the way didn't recognize him.
Perhaps it had something to do with his incredibly low profile. Since sometimes when he went to the apocalypse, the media would wait outside the community for a few days and it wouldn't be able to catch him.
People who only occasionally watched the news might know Jiang Chen's name, but they didn't know much about his appearance.
"Miss, what is your name?" Jiang Chen took his hand out of the dryer and asked in a gentlemanly manner.
Hearing this, a curvature appeared on her bright red lips. The phoenix eyes under her curly hair seemed to have a sly glint.
"Wang Xinyan."
