“Heh....”

Pei Ge had just finished speaking when the man opposite her chuckled.

“Eh, why are you laughing?” she softly asked, looking at Chen Zhengchu in confusion.

“Nothing much. I just find Miss Pei to be very sincere. I’ve been on a couple of blind dates before, and you are the first to present yourself as you are – a frank, candid, and sincere woman.” He bead at her, clearly in a good mood.

His words inexplicably ward her cheeks in embarrassnt.

“I don’t know if Miss Pei is on a diet or has sothing you don’t like to eat?” he asked lightly, seemingly not noticing the blush coloring her face.

She shook her head and then, as if she had thought of sothing, hurriedly asked, “I heard that raw at is included in the Japanese cuisines?”

“Yes, would you like to try it? The sashimi here is pretty good.” He smiled.

“No, no. What I an to say is that I only eat cooked food, and I don’t like raw at,” she quickly clarified.

“Oh, I see. That’s a pity.” He nodded and expressed his regret.

Looking at the man, she could not resist asking, “Dr. Chen, aren’t you a doctor? Don’t you know that eating raw at is not healthy? It’s better if you don’t eat it, too.”

Chen Zhengchu saw the serious expression on the woman’s face and briefly lit up.

Just like in their first eting when he warned her about eating too much sugar, she felt that he was a decent person, and they could try it out.

He was also moved by the sentint behind her words.

“Miss, don’t worry about the health issue; all our sashimi has been chilled for sterilization,” the waitress explained with a gentle smile.

“Oh, sorry,” she swiftly apologized and smiled.

She should not say this kind of stuff in front of the restaurant staff as it was not a polite thing to do.

“Miss, you are too polite; you don’t have to apologize to .” The waitress was taken aback by Pei Ge’s apology and quickly bowed her head.

Pei Ge looked at the waitress’s behavior and the corners of her mouth twitched. She was suddenly curious of whether she was Chinese or Japanese.

Her Mandarin was fluent but her behavior was like a Japanese’s.

Soon, Chen Zhengchu finished ordering. Pei Ge was not familiar with those dishes, but their nas did sound nice.

“Alright, Mr. Chen, we will prepare them now,” the waitress gently inford, picked up the nu, and stood up to exit the room.

“Hang on.” Chen Zhengchu suddenly stopped the waitress from leaving.

The waitress in kimono halted her footsteps and turned to look at Chen Zhengchu curiously. “Mr. Chen, is there anything else?”

“Add a portion of beef sukiyaki. The beef must be Kobe.”

As soon as Chen Zhengchu ordered this, Pei Ge’s eyes opened wide in shock.

She then recalled Pan Xinlei’s words....

‘If he orders that for you, then it ans that not only is he loaded, he even sees you as soone important.’

Eh... There’s no way, right?! This is only our second eting. There’s no way....

“Miss Pei, what are you thinking of?” He smiled at the dazed and wide-eyed Pei Ge . This woman is rather interesting – more interesting than those won I’ve t before.

“Ah? Oh, nothing!” She shook her head and smiled. How could she let him know the connection she was making between the Kobe beef and her?!

The two chatted while sipping on their sakura wine. Very soon, their order arrived.

The waitress served the hors d’oeuvres, and although they were considered as appetizers, she, who was a layman in this, already thought of them as restaurant-level dinner.

The petals of the porcelain bowl blood with swirls of green. The green leafy vegetables were combined with the crispy mushrooms, which were sprinkled with thin, dried shrimps. The dish’s light and faint savory sll filled the air.

Besides the white leaf-shaped dish, there were grilled squid, salmon steak, konjac cake, and egg rolls. In the blue bowl was the smooth and tender Japanese tofu, and the tofu was topped with a delicate egg yolk.

Be it the plate or the food, everything looked exquisite and beautiful.

Pei Ge looked at the plates of the so-called appetizers and began to salivate.

The next dish to be served was what the waitress terd as Japanese-style egg tart.

The dark-red container holding the dish had a lid with floral patterns. Opening the cover, steam escaped from the egg tart. The egg tart looked fresh and delicious, and hidden within it were minced at and mushrooms, which lent an infinitely smooth and savory taste to the dish.

The plates of food were like works of art being served on a table. Pei Ge’s eyes widened at the sight of the dishes and felt that what she was about to eat was not food but art.

The table was full of dishes. Be it the arrangent or the food itself, nothing overlapped; every beautiful plate holding each exquisite dish was beautiful. This was not a feast for the taste buds but for the eyes.

“These dishes are too good to look at.” She blinked and involuntarily expressed her awe.

“He he!” Her dazed look caused Chen Zhengchu to chuckle again.

The sound of his chuckle snapped Pei Ge out of her amazent.

Embarrassed, she smiled and lightly said, “Sorry. This is my first ti eating Japanese cuisines.”

Ah, ah, ah! Why didn’t I watch my image?! She admonished her commoner attitude.

“No worries. These dishes are indeed beautiful and can almost be considered as works of art,” he said with a smile.

Her cheeks were afla with embarrassnt. I should go wash my face in the toilet to refresh myself, lest I continue to make a fool of myself in front of Dr. Chen.

“Dr. Chen, I’m so sorry. I need to make a trip to the bathroom,” she excused herself with a light smile, moistening her lips.

“Sure, you go ahead; I’ll wait for you.” He gently nodded in the affirmative.

At the waitress’s direction, Pei Ge was soon in the bathroom. Inside, she opened the tap and splashed cold water on her flushed face.

“Pei Ge, don’t make a fool of yourself in front of Dr. Chen. He is such a nice guy, so you must impress him! You may not get lucky to et such a decent guy next ti!” She gave her mirror reflection a pep talk before exhaling deeply and exiting the bathroom.

However, on her way back, she t soone she had never expected and never wanted to encounter.

“... Pei Ge....”
