Chapter 315: Chapter 90 This is a Man Who Lives Off a Woman
Mu Fan’s neatly tailored suit highlighted his tall and powerful frame, and his sun-kissed, clean appearance made the female server unable to stop herself from taking several extra glances.
Although the man in front of her couldn’t be called extremely handsome, he was indeed quite a sight, especially those shiny black eyes.
It’s often said that the eyes are the windows to the soul; to the server, Mu Fan’s calm and indifferent gaze elevated his demeanor by an entire level.
If only she could get to know him.
Unfortunately, destiny didn’t grant her that opportunity. A voice came through the communicator, “Please bring the guest to seat B12 on the second floor.”
Regretfully, the server turned her head and said, “Good afternoon, sir. Please follow me.”
Swinging her pert behind rhythmically, the server waited for the apparently young and wealthy man behind her to strike up a conversation.
However, her efforts were in vain; they were like a performance for the blind.
Mu Fan’s nose twitched slightly as he observed the open kitchen that spanned hundreds of square meters on the first floor, where delicate dishes were arranged in variety. Many people were seated in pairs or groups of three, smiling contentedly as they ate in the quiet ambience.
The aroma is so appetizing…
They look scrumptious!
His stomach grumbled softly, and Mu Fan looked ahead, embarrassed; fortunately, no one noticed.
When he walked out of the ornate crystal floating stairs, Mu Fan immediately noticed Wang Nuonuo by the window—
No, it was the more than twenty exquisite dishes in front of Wang Nuonuo!
They nearly covered the entire emerald wood table.
That aroma was a better signal than any other, allowing Mu Fan to lock onto the table immediately among the forty tables on the second floor.
Then he saw Wang Nuonuo, head down, fiddling with her Sky Communication device, her delicate profile becoming more defined under the soft lighting.
“Nuonuo.”
“Ah? Egg… Lord!” She almost blurted out “Big Barbarian Bear,” but remembering that Chuchu was beside her, she quickly came up with this “classy” nickname in a stroke of wit.
“Pff~ Lord?” Chuchu, who was facing away from Mu Fan, hadn’t yet turned around when she heard her best friend’s unusual form of address and nearly spat out her ice-cold lime soda.
Seeing that she had successfully led the guest to the table, the server who considered herself somewhat attractive couldn’t help but give up, for the two girls seated there were too beautiful.
“Uh, you’ve gotten darker, thinner!” Her eyes, clear as a pool, were filled with concern.
“It’s fine, the training is intense.”
At the square table, Mu Fan took a seat directly opposite the glass window.
While answering questions, Chuchu got a good look at Mu Fan.
He seemed young, about her age, somewhat handsome, with an abundance of masculine charm; his outfit was quite expensive.
Hmph, just average—definitely some noble son from a family! So you, Wang Nuonuo, kept me in the dark.
After sitting down, Mu Fan chatted with Wang Nuonuo, eyeing the food on the table.
And Nuonuo’s eyes curved into crescents as she watched Mu Fan wearing the clothes she had given him, her heart brimming with joy.
“This is Chuchu, my best friend.”
“I’m Mu Fan. Nice to meet you.”
“Nice to meet you,” Chuchu said with a smile.
It was then that she noticed Mu Fan’s gaze, and Wang Nuonuo stuck out her tongue, “You must be hungry, let’s eat.”
Upon receiving the signal to start eating, Mu Fan grinned, “Then I won’t be polite.”
As he bent his head to eat, Chuchu, who hadn’t found the chance to interject, opened her mouth wider and wider in astonishment.
What’s called guzzling, what’s called eating voraciously—this person might give her the perfect answer.
Is this guy some kind of mutant Pig?
One plate, two plates, three plates…
Soon, even Wang Nuonuo, who had been happily propping up her cheeks, started to freeze in place.
Because Miss Wang suddenly realized that the food on the table wasn’t enough?
In just over five minutes, two-thirds had already disappeared!
With widened eyes, Wang Nuonuo turned her head and saw Chuchu desperately making faces at her.
Chuchu’s meaning was all conveyed through her eyes, “Is this the friend you mentioned, looking young and wealthy yet dining so crudely?”
Now she was genuinely worried that Nuonuo had been deceived. This naive girl simply lacked life experience.
However, after seeing Nuonuo nod in response, Chuchu felt relieved; thankfully, their long-standing tacit understanding still stood.
“Lord, are you very hungry?”
Mu Fan, who had just stuffed half a plate of foie gras into his mouth, looked at Nuonuo’s twinkling big eyes, nodded, and acknowledged that he was indeed very hungry.
“Waiter.”
“Hello, Miss, how may I assist you?”
“Give me the menu, and add twenty more dishes.”
This time, Nuonuo’s finger scrolled through various meat dishes.
Chuchu nearly toppled over at the sight.
She had been best friends with Nuonuo for many years but had never seen her so smitten with anyone.
Nuorival.
Can’t you see what kind of restaurant this is?
Those twenty dishes together would cost nearly 80,000 Star Coins!
That’s nearly my three months’ living expenses!
You are ordering so much for him without any reservation, and he doesn’t even say thank you.
This barbaric way of eating, how could it look anything like a noble’s offspring!
The more she thought, the angrier Chuchu became. She decided to use the wait for the new dishes to suss out this man’s background; if Nuonuo wouldn’t speak up, then she’d take matters into her own hands.
“Mu Fan, how did you come to know my Nuonuo?”
“Uh, a fight,” answered Mu Fan, who had just swallowed a mouthful of steak.
Hearing Mu Fan’s response, the smile on Wang Nuonuo’s face made her eyes curve, Egg Lord!
Chuchu was thunderstruck by his reply.
Fine, if you’re going to fob me off with such nonsense, I’m determined to extract your backstory and expose your true nature to Nuonuo!
“May I ask what kind of business Young Master Mu is currently engaged in? My Nuonuo really can’t stand the slightest grievance.”
Hearing this, Wang Nuonuo fully understood the implication behind her best friend’s words and anxiously signaled with her eyes, but to no avail—Chuchu pretended not to notice.
Mu Fan thought for a moment, “I’m not in business; I’m currently studying,” he said with a chuckle, then bowed his head and continued to eat heartily.
“Come on, you’re joking. That outfit you’re wearing right there is quite expensive,” Chuchu said with a sneaky smile, adopting the air of a young girl.
Wang Nuonuo was already puffing up with anger at Chuchu.
“This was given to me by Nuonuo; I couldn’t afford it myself. But it’s really comfortable to wear; I usually don’t dare to wear it.” After saying this, Mu Fan turned to Wang Nuonuo with a bright smile.
This piece of clothing was his treasure.
“Then I’ll take you to buy a few more pieces tomorrow,” Wang Nuonuo said naturally, then realizing what she said, her delicate face immediately blushed.
Chuchu was about to explode with rage. Had Nuonuo’s brain been blocked by an ion barrier? How could she speak without thinking!
This was the portrait of a man freeloading off a woman!
The man before her had said it all: no money and depends on a woman for clothes, now he’s here enjoying a meal paid for by a woman.
What right do you have to smile here?!
… lips.
Meanwhile, unnoticed two hundred meters away, a man wearing a duckbill cap tapped a concealed earpiece, “Unexpected development, Young Master Wu Lin has appeared at the entrance of the Ultraviolet Light Restaurant, arriving only nine minutes after the target.”
