Mu Xiaoxiao walked into Blue Café . This was where she had agreed to meet Lu Yichen .
This place was not very far from Shangde High, and it was separated from the bustling street by a road . Usually, the students from Shangde took a stroll or shopped here after school .
The fragrance of coffee could be smelt as Mu Xiaoxiao entered the shop . While trying to look for Lu Yichen, she spotted him waving to her .
Smiling, she walked over and sat down . "Did you wait long?"
Lu Yichen passed her the menu gentlemanly . "No, I didn't . Choose what you want to drink from here . This restaurant is quite popular, so the drinks should taste good . "
Mu Xiaoxiao was neither partial nor impartial to coffee, but she liked to drink things like milk tea or kumquat lemon juice .
"It's just nice that I'm thirsty…" She flipped the menu open . Seeing the price, her words stopped, and she lifted her head and cast an involuntary look at Lu Yichen . Using the menu to cover her face, she leaned forward and whispered, "This shop is expensive!"
A beverage cost almost 100 yuan . Even though she had had even more expensive drinks before, the first thing she thought of was Lu Yichen's financial situation .
The corner of Lu Yichen's lips twitched a smile . "It's alright; just order what you want . I can afford this," he said nonchalantly .
However, Mu Xiaoxiao furrowed her brows and shook her head . "I don't want to; it's too expensive . This is practically daylight robbery!" she said .
No wonder he had said that this café was popular with the students . Shangde High was a school for the elite, and most of the students were rich scions who would of course purchase things at such a price without a second thought .
Just then, the waiter brought their plates over .
"Enjoy your meal . " The waiter smiled warmly, his fresh and dapper appearance putting people at ease .
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at the food . Unexpectedly, it was two strawberry cakes, and she couldn't help but look at Lu Yichen in shock . "Did you order these?"
Lu Yichen nodded, his pupils sparkling like stars . Smiling, he said, "Yeah, I heard from people who eat the desserts here that they tasted good, and it just happened that you're here to try some with me . "
After the waiter left, Mu Xiaoxiao flipped through the menu hurriedly to find the price of the cakes .
Seeing her like that made Lu Yichen not know if he should laugh or cry . "Stop searching and just order a drink . "
Mu Xiaoxiao flipped the pages noisily, and she finally found the price of the strawberry cake at the back . Instantly, her eyes widened . "My god! More than a hundred yuan! This is really daylight robbery!"
Her voice was a little loud, and it attracted the stares of customers nearby .
Lu Yichen coughed awkwardly, reminding her of their surroundings .
Even though he didn't mind her making such a fuss, which was kind of cute, it was highly likely that there were other students around . She had already been involved in such a big incident today, and because a lot of attention was on her, it was better for her to keep a low-profile .
Mu Xiaoxiao noticed this as well . Her face flushed slightly, and she quickly pulled up the collar of her sun-proof outerwear to cover her face .
She had purchased the outerwear on the way here so that she could hide in it .
Placing the menu aside, Mu Xiaoxiao held up the lemon water the waiter had just delivered . "I'll just drink this . I'm not going to order anything else . "
Seeing her like this, Lu Yichen did not press her .
Mu Xiaoxiao drank a mouth of water . Her head was occupied with thinking that she must hurry home, lest Yin Shaojie discover that she had snuck out .
"Lu Yichen, what did you want to tell me?" she asked hurriedly . It was a race against time, as she wanted to rush home after their talk .
Lu Yichen's brown eyes gazed at her . "Actually, you can call me Yichen . "
Mu Xiaoxiao froze a little . Call him Yichen? It felt so intimate…
