"Ru She. As usual."
Mu Zhe said and sat in their usual place.
"Okay."
Ru She replied softly as her eyes glanced at Jiang Hai.
"Wow!"
Zhou Jun patted Jiang Hai's shoulder roughly. It turned out that the lucky girl who had managed to win his friend's heart was not ordinary. Not only beautiful but also virtuous.
While waiting for their order to arrive, Mu Zhe and Jiang Hai's eyes darted around looking for someone. Zhang Yiran who knew the truth only smiled.
"Your order."
Hearing that voice, Mu Zhe quickly turned around before turning his eyes to Zhang Yiran. Start to feel shy.
Cough! Cough! Cough!
"What... Cough! You ordered just now..?"
He said to Zhang Yiran. Sounds all fakes.
"As usual."
Zhang Yiran replied with a smile.
"Thank you Lulu."
Zhang Yiran said.
"It's okay."
Lulu replied.
"Oh...Lulu... just now..."
Zhou Jun almost reached for Lulu's hand to apologize.
"Sorry, this is not foreign country for you to just grab someone without their permission."
Mu Zhe grabbed Zhou Jun's hand. There was no smile on his face.
"I just want to apologize to him."
Zhou Jun replied in astonishment.
"You have a mouth, right? It's not hard for you to say I'm sorry, right? There's no need for you to hold his hand? You won't die if you don't act pervert for a day, right?"
Mu Zhe said sharply. Not only Zhou Jun, the others were also astonishment. Zhou Jun nodded while swallowing his saliva.
Zhang Yiran gently patted Mu Zhe's shoulder. Jiang Hai tries pulled Zhou Jun's hand from Mu Zhe's. After failing, Jiang Hai gently patted Mu Zhe's hand asking him to release his grip.
"It's okay. Just a small thing."
Lulu's voice was soft. For the first time, his eyes looked gently at Mu Zhe's face. Mu Zhe stared at Lulu's face. His heart melted when he saw that gentle gaze. He slowly released his grip on Zhou Jun hand.
"Remember. This is Uthopia, not abroad. Don't be so careless."
He continued.
"Yes. Yes. That's it. Let's dig in."
Jiang Hai said persuadingly. It was the first time he had seen Mu Zhe act like that. Usually Mu Zhe just kept quiet and smiled. If he didn't like something, he would just make some annoying face. He never spoke back. It seemed that Lulu was not just someone to Mu Zhe. Like... Jiang Hai glanced towards the kitchen. Seeing Ru She's presence who came with their order.
"Lulu..please help me with this."
Ru She asked. Lulu agreed. Helped Ru She lift the order from the tray to be served.
"Where's Ru Yi?"
Jiang Hai asked.
"Oh. Brother has a fever."
She replied.
"Fever?"
Jiang Hai was stunned. "Yesterday he was still fine. Why all of a sudden? Maybe...?"
"Yes. I told you to look at him yesterday. What did you do?"
Ru She said angrily. All eyes were on Jiang Hai's guilty face. Jiang Hai quickly shook his head. But in his of mind, he could see clearly how Ru Yi's act underneath his body yesterday.
"Okay, who's helping at the shop? Do you want us to help?"
Mu Zhe asked.
"It's okay. Lulu is here to help."
Ru She replied.
"Bill please!"
One of many customers shouted.
"Okay. Just a moment."
Ru She shouted back.
"Lulu. Go clean up table eleven."
A voice from the kitchen.
"Okay."
Lulu quickly left.
After everyone left, all eyes were focused on Jiang Hai.
"What? I didn't do anything to him."
Jiang Hai replied.
"No. We didn't say anything."
Zhang Yiran said while raising his eyebrows at Mu Zhe. Mu Zhe nodded. " There must be something."
Mu Zhe didn't feel comfortable sitting there watching Lulu's busyness. He knew Lulu was tired. He just can't let its go just like that.
"Order please."
Called a customer. Mu Zhe looked at Lulu who was busy bringing the customer's food.
"Excuse me.."
Called the customer again.
"Okay!"
Mu Zhe replied then he got up from his seat. Reached for a pen and paper at the counter and went to meet the customer. Zhang Yiran and Zhou Jun looked at each other before they also stand up and help.
"What do you want to order, sir?"
Mu Zhe said with a sweet smile.
"We want to order set B."
The customer also replied with a smile.
"Okay. Is there anything else you want to add?"
He asked again.
"No. Just looking at your face is enough for us."
The customer replied. Mu Zhe just smiled sweetly and went to get Lulu.
"Order from table three."
Mu Zhe said as he handed Lulu the order paper. Lulu, who was still dazed, accepted the paper.
"Excuse me, order please!"
A customer shouted.
"Okay!"
Mu Zhe replied. He looked cheerful doing the job and he totally good on it.
"Mu Zhe.."
Lulu became more interested in Mu Zhe's personality. Slowly, his lips curved into a satisfied smile.
That night, Chen's family restaurant was filled with a lot of customers. All the food was sold out before ten o'clock. Many customers came to enjoy the food and the charming young waiters.
"Thank you for helping aunt and uncle today. Without all of you, we didn't know what we can do."
Aunt Chen said earnestly.
"It's okay aunt. We can't let Lulu do the work alone."
Mu Zhe replied as he patted Lulu's shoulder. Lulu startled a little. But he managed to calm himself from yelling out loud how excited he was at that moment.
"Eh... these is four of you earlier, right? Where is another one?"
Aunt Chen's asking after she didn't see Jiang Hai's presence.
"Oh. He has something to do. So he have to go back first."
Zhang Yiran answered as his eyes glanced at Mu Zhe.
"Yes. Aunt. Something important. Between life and death."
Mu Zhe nodded while elbowing Zhou Jun. Signaling the man to cooperate.
"Ermmm... that's right. Between life and death."
Zhou Jun said cooperating even though he didn't know the end of the story.
"Oh. That's too bad. He's okay, right?"
Aunt Chen's asked in worried.
"Oh... he's okay. Aunt, don't worry. Aunt, you must be tired, right? Please sit down first."
Zhang Yiran pulled out a chair for aunt Chen.
"Oh.. what a good boy. But I'm okay. I'm already used to it. You guys sit down. Let me make new food for you. These foods is already cold."
Aunt Chen said trying to pick up the cold food on the table.
"Auntie, it's okay. No need to bother."
Mu Zhe replied trying to stop her.
"Oh...it's okay. Lulu, please take all this to the kitchen."
She said. Totally ignored Mu Zhe words. Lulu agreed.
"It's okay Lulu. Let us take it ourselves."
Mu Zhe said while holding Lulu's hand. Zhou Jun's eyes widened at Mu Zhe's antics at that moment.
"You said.. can't hold... hand"
He said between believing and not.
"Oh..."
Mu Zhe stunned for a moment. But Lulu's hand still in his grasp. Lulu just kept quiet while enjoying the opportunity.
"Ah! You and I are not the same. That's it. Move aside. You're on my way."
Mu Zhe said while pushing Zhou Jun aside. Hiding his embarrassment by pertending to be busy helping Lulu. Lulu just followed every step his senior make while trying his best to act calm. However, his satisfying smile obviously visible on Zhang Yiran's eyes.
