“Ding!” Right then, the elevator door opened.
Huo Yi led them through a beautiful promenade to the beach.
A large stretch of endless beach was being cordoned off and no one was there. There were only seagulls around them. The waves constantly crashed against the coastline. It was a beautiful sight!
There was a swarm of waiters who placed a variety of seafood on the long table placed near the coastline.
“Today’s lunch is seafood prepared by a Michelin restaurant chef from the Ryukyu Islands. Young Master Li, Sister Chi, enjoy your meal.” Huo Yi acted the gentleman by pulling the chair out for Chi Enen. He waited until Chi Enen was seated before he pushed the chair inward. He stood respectfully and quietly by the side, as if he was an invisible man.
Chi Enen looked at the hairy crabs and crab tools set that was placed in front of her, a dumbfounded look on her face.
She did not know how to use any of the tools. What should she do?
A few waiters stood by the table, pouring water and handing hot towel to her. Chi Enen looked at the man who was a few meters away from her, feeling awkward. She was at a loss.
What should she do?
Many people were looking at her. Would she embarrass him if she did not know how to use them?
Men were proud. If she embarrassed Li Beijue, would he throw her out?
It did not matter if he threw her out but they were overseas and she did not have any money to buy plane tickets to go back. If she was thrown out, how would she make her way back?
Many thoughts flashed across Chi Enen’s mind within few minutes.
Just then, a beautiful waitress suddenly came walking over from where Li Beijue sat, carrying a plate with her.
“Sister Chi, Young Master Li wanted me to serve this to you.” She placed the plate down and Chi Enen was shocked to see its contents.
A hairy crab was cut up and placed neatly on the silver plate. The owner of the plate seemed to know that she did not know how to use the crab tools set and was very considerate to crack the hard shell of every crab leg. She only needed to remove the shell and she would be able to eat the flesh.
Did Li Beijue crack the crab shells for her?
Chi Enen looked in his direction automatically. The table was too long, she could only see his firm outline from afar.
“Sister Chi, can I put this hairy crab to the side?” The waiter asked.
Chi Enen came back to her senses. “Please help me clear it. Thank you.”
“Sure, Sister Chi. Enjoy your meal.” The waiter cleared the hairy crab that was originally placed on her table and left.
Chi Enen turned her attention to her meal. She took the fork and knife on the table and began the silent fight with the hairy crab.
The seafood by the beach was delicious and fresh, and it was prepared by a top-notch chef. The hairy crabs completely retained their original flavor. The mint that was added to it made it less fishy as well. The crab meat was juicy and succulent. Its roe was fragrant and tasty. Chi Enen had never eaten such a delicious crab. She finished the entire crab and there was still the lingering aftertaste of the crab roe.
They had finished lunch.
The waiters were quick to clear the dishes off the table and served the desserts.
Chi Enen was really full to the brim. She only took two sips of the orange juice before she placed the glass back down on the table.
Huo Yi came over and asked respectfully, “Sister Chi, are you done with lunch?”
Chi Enen felt that her stomach was bulging from the lunch. “Yes.”
“Please come with me.”
“Where are we going?” Chi Enen looked at the man not far away as she asked hesitantly.
Wasn’t Li Beijue coming with them?
Huo Yi seemed to know what she was thinking and he explained nicely. “Master Jue has an important meeting in the afternoon. I will lead you back to the room to rest. After Master Jue finishes his meeting, I will wake you up.”
So it turned out that he had a meeting.
Chi Enen did not intend to stick with Li Beijue the whole time she was there. She could not wait to spend time by herself. She immediately got up and left with Huo Yi
