Chapter 678 Didnt even let me join (2/2)

”Why?”

It wasn't her birthday nor was it his. So why go so far as to decorate the place?

Lu Tian places a piece of Ma Po tofu inside her bowl and glance in her direction. He knew what she was thinking, and he sighs inside. Good thing, he planned ahead or else he would be in trouble.

He places the bowl in front of her then proceeds to fill his own bowl.

”After everything that has happened, I just feel like surprising you with a romantic dinner.”

Giving her a smile after his words, he pours warm tea into two cups then passes one to her.

”Eat before everything gets cold.”

Yue Ling sat in silence without taking her eyes off of him. She watches as he picks up his chopsticks to eat.

She found it strange that he would go over the moon to prepare something like this for her. She glances at the restaurant windows and furrows her brows.

He said this is a 'romantic dinner', but can it really be considered dinner if the sun is still out?

However, quickly as the thought came to her, she decides not to push it further and picks up her chopsticks to eat too.

After all, Madam Zhao and Uncle Zhao must have spent a long time preparing this delicious meal.

While Yue Ling and Lu Tian proceed to eat, at the back of the restaurant, Liu Shan, Xu Long and Lin Hui sat on the floor with their backs leaned against the wall.

”Man, I didn't think they would get here so fast.”

Lin Hui heaves a long sigh and fans himself with his hand. On either side of him, both assistants nod their heads in agreement. Xu Long glance at the wall clock and force himself off the floor.

”Come on guys. No time to rest, we have to get going. With the way my boss drives, they might get to the next place before we do.”

Hearing his words, Liu Shan and Lin Hui could only cry on the inside like winners.

When they arrived at Elegancy, they were sure they would ahead of time and helped with the decorations. However, who would have thought that Lu Tian was some race car driver and arrived only ten minutes after them.

Even they were barely able to finish putting up the decorations. Left with no other choice, they had to force Madam Zhao to go outside and stall a little bit of time for them.

Luckily for them, luck was on their side and they finished in time.

Standing up from the floor, Liu Shan and Lin Hui stretch out their arms at the same time. With their palms facing upwards, both men slowly raise their arms and inhale a mouthful of air.

As their hands reach above their heads, they slowly brought their arms down with palms facing downwards in front of them.

Once their hands pass their whole head, both men exhale like they were meditating.

Liu Shan felt all his energy return to him, and he looks over to Xu Long.

”Alright, let's get going.”

Watching the assistant and subordinate leave, Xu Long was baffled by what happened. He stares in disbelief at the two figures then looks at Zhao Ya'Er.

”How rude. They didn't even let me join in.”

His words fell as he cries with no tears and sadly follows out the back door of the restaurant. However, if he had turned around, he would have seen the look of admiration in Zhao Ya'Er's glistening eyes.
