The Stars in Your Eyes

Do You Have Free Time Next Week?

This hotpot restaurant has a private room and table hall. Jian Kang Lu thought while he drove, he wanted to bring his kitten inside a private room. But maybe it will not be convenient for his kitten. After all, both of them just know each other and only meet for
the second time today. So he chose the table for 2 people near the window.

This restaurant has a modern classic interior style. The Chinese style on the ceiling with thin red paint along the dark brown wood. combined with beige painting and dark brown wood pillar giving the warm classic Chinese architecture atmosphere inside. The large
window framed with thin dark brown wood and thin red paint similar to the ceiling add the
modern looks, but it blends well and lightens the restaurant well. The small garden outside
completed the classy overall look for this restaurant.

The waiter brings the menu and asks for the soup choices for them. Jian Kang Lu asked his kitten. "Do you want the 2 grid or 4 grid? If you want you can also order the 9 grid, though it's just both of us.

"Mmm.. 4 grid maybe?"

"Okay, which soup that you want to try? I will order 2 of my favorites. Three delicacies and
Sichuan spicy."

His kitten looked at the menu for a while, and asked him while still staring at the menu. "Is this mushroom soup good?"

"It's nice, good to boil the mushrooms and vegetables. Meat also, but depends on your
preference."

"How about the jade chicken or the tomato soup?"

"Tomato soup is not suitable for meat, in my opinion. But great for fish. Jade chicken is neutral for all ingredients. The soup is clear and gives a clean taste. But you can try anything you want. All of this restaurant soup is good."

The waiter tries to open his mouth every time this young man asks. But this man across the young man always gives faster answers and
even more accurately than what his answer will be. He feels that if he is just standing here without any function, he won't get any good tips. So he gives them the best customer service smile and adds his proffesional opinion.

"If you plan to order a variety of food, I suggest you go with jade chicken soup since it's neutral for all. But if you plan to order a lot of seafood, then tomato soup is the best. It's one of our best seller soups here. The pickled soup is also great for seafood, but a little bit sour"

'This young man then silent tor a while, and then choose jade chicken and tomato soup. The
handsome man across him then ordered the special noodle, black pork, marble wagyu, pomfret fish, scallops, vegetables, tofu, and lotus root. He then asks the young man if he wants to order anything else. But the young man shook his head and said that they can order more if it is still not enough.

The waiter quickly taps their order into his order tablet, asking whether they already know how to mix the sauce and ask if they need the apron to protect their clothes from the soup spills. After catering their needs, the waiter leaves the table and prepares their order. In
this weekend lunch hour, if he doesn't work fast the other customer will give complaints.

Jian Kang Lu stares at his kitten across him. From his looks, it seems that this is the first visit for his kitten. His kitten stares at the
ceiling, at the ornaments in the sauce and salad bar, and even at the window frame. It's not a look from someone who never goes to the fancy restaurant, but the looks given when people are interested in something.

"'Yutang, can i call you Yutang?"

His kitten startled a bit, and shifted his stare back to him. He looks a bit embarrassed since his eyes widen and his ear tips reddened. He answered him. "Yes you can."

Bai Yutang opened his mouth but then closed it again. Jian Kang Lu feels his kitten wants to ask something but is too shy. He decided to just ask him.

"Is there anything you want to ask me? It's okay."
