Chapter 168: Date[3]

"Do you like it here?" he asked in response.

"Mmm." She nodded. "I think it’s interesting and picturesque but we can go somewhere better. Somewhere you will be more comfortable." she offered. Dates were only fun if both parties were enjoying themselves.

"No, if you like it, I like it." He retorted. It was as simple as that. When it came to her, he was a yes man to everything.

"Then we should find a place to sit and eat something." She said while looking around. So far, she was very confused. So many amazing smells, so many choices, It was difficult to decide where to go. They had walked around and looked around for a while but she could not decide. She wanted to taste everything. "T4, can you scan and locate the cleanest restaurant or food stand around? With the best tasting food hopefully."

"That is not my duty host." T4 replied redundantly. "How can you ask this almighty lord system to do such menial tasks?"

"Don’t you want Muyang happy?" she asked. When it came to things that would make Muyang happy, T4 was always onboard. The system’s love and admiration for Jun Muyang was quite novel.

"Scanning." He replied.

A few seconds later he said, "Host, there is a blue tent ten steps ahead to your right selling beef barbeque and noodles. I recommend that you eat from there."

She pulled Muyang in that direction and easily found the tent. "Muyang, let’s try their food." She pointed.

In the tent was only one customer. The person cooking was an elderly lady and a young teenage girl was assisting her to serve the meal and clean the few tables. In this crowded market, it was quite weird to see such a deserted place. Was their food bad? Was T4 mistaken?

"Host, give me some credit, I know how to do my job." T4 ridiculed her.

"Are you sure you want to eat from here?" Muyang asked unsurely.

"Yes," she replied with confidence whatever the old woman was roasting over the grill smelled enticing.

They approached the tent and Muyang pulled out a chair for her. "Thank you." She smiled appreciatively. He quickly brought his own chair extremely close to hers and smiled back at her.

Wenzhe and Wenli sat at a different table. The teenage girl was very happy to see guests; she quickly came hopping to take their orders.

"Welcome to grandma’s roast, what can I get you?" she spoke politely while looking at Chi Lian.

"Do you have a menu?" Muyang asked looking directly at the her.

The young girl blushed red and nervously tugged at her old green apron. "Uhm ...uhm..." she replied.

"Ha-aha-haaaa, "Chi Lian laughed at the girl. She looked at her and asked, "He is really handsome, right?"

"Yes." The girl blurted out and covered her mouth quickly.

"Ha-ha-haaaa," Chi Lian laughed some more, "I know, I also think he is very handsome."

Muyang looked at her and raised one eyebrow. She continued chuckling. "What?" she asked playfully. "It’s not my fault that women of every age cannot resist you."

"As long as they know I am taken." He took a hold of her hand, held it at his chest and looked at the girl, "What do you serve here?"

The girl stumbled over her words again and Muyang sighed impatiently.

Luckily, the grandmother or so Chi Lian assumed came to the girl’s rescue. "Guests, My granddaughter can be shy sometimes. Especially when she sees a handsome man, please don’t be offended she doesn’t mean any harm."

"It’s okay, I understand." Chi Lian replied softly. "My man is indeed handsome; I am also very shy around him." She joked.

The grandmother looked at them fondly and said, "You and your husband must be very happy together."

Chi Lian blushed and looked down briefly. ’Do we look like a married couple?’ she asked herself. ’I should clarify the understanding though.’ "We are not_"

"Yes, we are very happy." Muyang cut her off.

"Oh," she said softly and looked at him in shock. His face was slightly red but portraying confidence instead of embarrassment. He seemed to be quite comfortable with the misunderstanding, in fact, he liked it. Since he was comfortable with it, who was she to deny it?

"En, grandma, we are very happy." She parroted him, word for word while smiling broadly at him.

"Then this old woman will congratulate you on your happiness. In the meantime, I will be taking your order. We have beef and mutton barbeque. We also serve white rice, noodles and peach wine."

Looking at Muyang, she asked, "Do you prefer beef or mutton?"

"Mmm, I will have what you are having." He replied automatically.

"No, I want to taste everything so I think we should order for everything. If there are left overs, we can send them home to Blackguard and Pearl."

Pearl was the name of the white cat she adopted. It was comfortably in the Chi family home now with a kitty house, toys and all the luxury a pet could ever dream of.

"What about wine?" he asked.

"Let’s get some of that too. I want to taste it."

The grandmother took their order and hurried to prepare their food. The teenage girl took Wenzhe and Wenli’s orders.

"Muyang, what about the body guards?" she asked worriedly. She could spot them, idly staring at them from a short distance away. To her, they were probably hungry as well. It would be cruel to leave them hungry and standing while being surrounded by such tantalizing smells as she and Muyang enjoyed their meal.

He sent a text using his phone and the bodyguards found seats in the tent. It was suddenly nearly full and busy. The grandmother and the teenager were working happily.

It didn’t take long for their food to be delivered. The enticing smells coming from the food platters had Chi Lian reaching her greedy hands out and shoving a piece of beef in her mouth immediately.

"Ah, ah, hot, hot." She fanned her open mouth, completely forgetting her plan to be lady like and mesmerizing.
