Chapter 223

"Ah," the waitress first glanced at Li Yiquan, then looked at Ren Lingyu with envy and replied, "It was ordered by your boyfriend, and it has already been prepaid."

Boy, boyfriend? Ren Lingyu looked at Li Yiquan blankly. What was the situation? Did Master order the meal in advance? Did the waiter think Master was her boyfriend?

He Lele smiled; her thought was the same as Ren Lingyu's. And everything from the main course to the dessert on the table was what Lingyu loved to eat. It was definitely ordered by someone who was intentional and affectionate.

Lifting her eyes to look at the calm Li Yiquan, the man's gentlemanly demeanor was like an orchid or bamboo, making it hard not to have a good impression... It was indeed only a man like this who deserved a girl as good as Lingyu.

"Uh... Master, this is a misunderstanding." Ren Lingyu hurriedly explained. Don't look at how she was often informal with her master, but she was actually very afraid of her master!

Li Yiquan lowered his eyes and chuckled, lazily raising his arm to support his head, his chin tilted toward behind Ren Lingyu.

Ren Lingyu and He Lele both turned their heads and saw two tall, handsome, and fashionably dressed men standing behind them.

"Hi! Honey!"

Ren Lingyu: "It's you again!"

He Lele: "Mr. Mu?"

What was going on? He Lele looked suspiciously at the blond man beside Mu Wei—she had seen him before, the foreigner who sent Lingyu to the hospital during that car accident! A young foreigner whose Chinese was very authentic, Mu Wei's friend, his name seemed to be... Caesar? He and Lingyu...

"Waiter!" Before He Lele could think too much, Ren Lingyu beside her stood up "whoosh" and pointed at Caesar angrily. "He ordered it?"

Seeing the situation was bad, the waitress hurriedly looked back at the lobby manager.

"Sorry, sorry!" The lobby manager apologized repeatedly as soon as he came over. Lawyer Li was a regular here, so he naturally knew him. When that foreign friend came to order today, his attitude was too natural, and no one doubted anything; the girls were just busy being infatuated.

"Sorry? You dare to serve food ordered by just anyone to a guest's table? If something goes wrong, who will be responsible? You? Or you?"

"Yu, Yumaomao, don't be angry, it's not the girls' fault, it's me..." Caesar said with a look of apology.

"No, no! It's our dereliction of duty, Miss Ren, please calm down. This is our fault. We will withdraw these immediately. See what you want to eat, we will prepare it immediately. Really sorry." The lobby manager commanded people to clean up the table while apologizing.

Ren Lingyu opened her mouth, wanting to say something else.

"Lingyu." He Lele pulled Ren Lingyu's sleeve and shook her head gently. Seeing this, Ren Lingyu glared at Caesar fiercely and sat down.

"Sorry, Lawyer Li, do we seem to be uninvited guests?" Mu Wei smiled.

Li Yiquan looked at Mu Wei with his head slightly raised, and his right hand spread out, signaling the two to take their seats.

Mu Wei didn't stand on ceremony, pulled out the chair beside He Lele and sat down, while Caesar carefully moved to Ren Lingyu's side. Just as he wanted to touch the back of the chair, Ren Lingyu kicked the chair leg of that empty chair, scaring Caesar until he ran to Mu Wei's side.

It was originally a round booth for five, but Mu Wei was on one side of He Lele, and Li Yiquan was on the other, so there was no room at all.

"Xiaoyu." Li Yiquan's gentle tone was wrapped in a trace of undeniable majesty.

Ren Lingyu then retracted her feet, tacitly allowing Caesar to sit beside her.

Ignoring Mu Wei and Caesar, Ren Lingyu coldly ordered the meal, for three people. He Lele smiled bitterly and added some dishes.

At first, only Mu Wei and Li Yiquan exchanged greetings, while Ren Lingyu glared at the pitiful Caesar with anger. He Lele was very curious about the relationship between Caesar and Lingyu, but it wasn't easy to ask, so she had to close her mouth and watch from the sidelines.

But after the waiter started serving the food, the atmosphere at the table changed significantly. Mu Wei turned to take care of He Lele. He Lele couldn't refuse, so she had to eat the shrimp he peeled obediently, letting him wipe her mouth from time to time. Caesar looked at them with envy, and when he looked at Lingyu, his eyes became even more pitiful. It was only then that Ren Lingyu discovered the "abnormal relationship" between Mu Wei and He Lele, and looked surprised, not even noticing Caesar secretly putting food in her bowl.

Li Yiquan ate elegantly, as if he didn't see the four people around him, but he knew very well—in his peripheral vision, he saw every movement and expression of that girl clearly.

Pity...

Pity? Li Yiquan was slightly startled. How... how long had it been since he felt sorry for anything?

Li Yiquan thought back for a while, then smiled faintly.

The meal ended hastily. Seeing that Ren Lingyu hadn't eaten much, Caesar asked her timidly if she wanted to order some desserts.

"Don't worry about me! Lele, shall we go eat some dessert?" Ren Lingyu asked He Lele.

"Uh..." He Lele looked at the three men and couldn't respond.

"Master, Lele still has to rush to work, we'll go first." After saying this to Li Yiquan, Ren Lingyu pulled He Lele and left.

"Yumaomao! Where are you going? I'll go too, I'll treat you!" Caesar hurriedly followed.
