Nanling State's most famous Chinese restaurant—
Keren and Qingtian walked into the private room side by side.
The place wasn't far from the apartment they lived in, but there was a traffic jam during the rush hour on their way here, and they were stuck for almost 30 minutes.
As Keren entered the private room, she felt so hungry that her stomach was sticking to her back, and she didn't have much energy left.
"Bring up the pastries as fast as you can!" Qingtian ordered and, looking up, saw that Keren had already collapsed onto the table, so he urged them on.
After the waiter acknowledged the request, he hurried off.
Soon, sweet osmanthus cake, crystal shrimp dumplings, and a few custard buns were served.
The moment the custard buns arrived, Keren started eating.
"Can we talk now?" Qingtian scooped out the filling from a crystal shrimp dumpling, placed the shrimp on Keren's plate, and then asked this question.
