Chapter 134: Strange Way of Ordering

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Looking at the time, it was time to eat, so Murong Zheng decided to take Nan Qiao away for a meal to prevent her from having any more contact with Nan Jin.

“Okay, but I still have a friend.” She nodded in agreement and added.

Nan Qiao didn’t expect Murong Zheng to invite her, so she agreed in surprise.

After all, this was also a good opportunity for her to get to know Murong Zheng. Although the two of them had met before, because of Murong Zheng’s cold personality, they did not interact much.

Strictly speaking, this was the first time Murong Zheng had taken the initiative to eat with her.

“Let’s go together,” Murong Zheng replied indifferently.

It didn’t matter to Murong Zheng whether there was one more person or not. Anyway, he had already achieved his goal of pulling Nan Qiao and Nan Jin apart.

The two of them then left the research room together.

An Nuo did not expect that Nan Qiao would bring back a handsome man in less than an hour.

The man was wearing glasses like a gentleman but his face was stern. It simply made An Nuo feel how it’s like to be abstinent.

“Why do you always meet handsome men?”

With him in front of her, An Nuo did not dare to be too arrogant. She could only reach out and pull Nan Qiao’s sleeve, muttering softly in her ear.

Nan Qiao was caught between laughter and tears after hearing this. She reached out and knocked An Nuo’s head.

“What nonsense are you talking about? This is my Second Big Brother.”

However, An Nuo was right. Murong Zheng was indeed quite handsome.

“Isn’t your family’s genes too outstanding?”

An Nuo looked at Murong Zheng and then at Nan Qiao. Upon closer inspection, she realized that there was a slight similarity between the two of them. However, Murong Zheng was always expressionless, while Nan Qiao often smiled, so no one could tell the connection between the two at first glance.

Standing beside the two of them, Murong Zheng heard every word of their conversation.

He suddenly felt that his hearing was a little too good.

After learning that Nan Qiao and Murong Zheng were planning to eat, An Nuo shook her head and rejected the invitation.

Why would she go when the siblings were bonding?

“There are still people waiting for me at home, so 1 won’t disturb you guys.”

An Nuo smiled and waved goodbye to Nan Qiao. She did not trouble Nan Qiao and called a nurse to push her away.

Since the other party had other plans, Nan Qiao gave up on the idea of eating with An Nuo. After bidding farewell, she followed Murong Zheng to a luxurious cafeteria.

The waiter brought the two of them to a good spot by the window. From here, they could see the endless scenery outside.

“What can 1 get for you?”

The waiter smiled politely and handed two menus to Nan Qiao and Murong Zheng.

Nan Qiao looked at the various names on it and felt dizzy. She waved her hand for Murong Zheng to choose.

Murong Zheng flipped through the menu and spoke slowly.

“Smoked salmon with a liquid salt corsage butter sauce.”

“One lobster soup, too. Boston lobster.”

“Two Wellington steaks, grade M9+.”

He spoke so quickly that the waiter standing at the side struggled to keep up with him as he quickly took notes.

Nan Qiao was also attracted by the rapid speech and looked at Murong Zheng in surprise. The other party was just sitting there. Other than looking at the menu just now, he didn’t even look at her.

Must dishes be ordered in a cool way nowadays? Her Second Big Brother’s memory was too good.

However, his requests… were a little difficult to explain in a few words.

“Apart from salt and natural spices, you can’t add any condiments like chicken essence or MSG.

The salt must be Huai salt. It’s best if it doesn’t exceed three grams.”

After mentioning a lot of dishes, Murong Zheng finally added this last sentence.

According to Murong Zheng’s own habits, this should be the end of it. However, considering Nan Qiao, who had followed him here…

Murong Zheng paused for a moment, as if he was thinking.

“And a chocolate souffle.” He made an exception and ordered dessert.

He remembered that women should like desserts. Since he saw that Nan Qiao was very unhappy with the person called Nan Jin just now, ordering her a dessert would probably make her happy.

He closed the menu as if he didn’t see the indescribable expression on the waiter’s face.

The waiter put down the pen in his hand and looked at Murong Zheng. His eyes were filled with doubt.

“Any issues?”

As if sensing the waiter’s sharp gaze, Murong Zheng slowly turned to look at him.

“No, no issues at all.”

The waiter forced a smile and retreated.

After hearing Murong Zheng’s request, the waiter thought that this person was here to destroy the shop. However, when he saw the cold eyes of the person in front of him, the waiter suppressed the muttering in his heart.

Even though the waiter had no problem, Nan Qiao had.

After she watched Murong Zheng order food for both of them according to his strange requests, she only felt that Murong Zheng’s actions were shocking.

I low could a normal person eat with such standards??

Even the grams of salt were set. Looking at Murong Zheng’s ridiculously strict behavior, Nan Qiao felt that this brother had instantly left the category of ordinary humans.

She did not say anything, but the way she looked at Murong Zheng was especially obvious, making Murong Zheng have no choice but to look back.

“Normal people can’t consume more than ten grams of salt a day. Three to five grams is the best option.”

Murong Zheng seemed to have seen through Nan Qiao’s thoughts and even explained to her.

Even so…

Nan Qiao blinked, not knowing what to say.

Then, the dishes were slowly served and placed in front of them.

Looking at the juicy steak on the plate, Nan Qiao immediately decided to remain silent and not say much to Murong Zheng.

She thought that even if Murong Zheng was immersed in research, he was at least a normal person.

However, today’s food ordering has really broadened Nan Qiao’s horizons. She realized that Murong Zheng had a different side.

Looking at the shocking way he ordered food, Nan Qiao felt her heart collapse. She wished she could leave now.

Unfortunately, it still wasn’t enough to scare her off. Nan Qiao looked down at the steak in front of her and resisted the urge to sigh.

She cut a piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth. She was shocked by the richness of the steak. Her heart, which had been shocked by Murong Zheng’s actions, was instantly filled with the happiness brought by delicious food.

“The steak can be cut a little smaller.”

Murong Zheng said as he watched Nan Qiao cut the steak.

Nan Qiao looked at the beef on her plate and then at Murong Zheng’s plate.

A portion of the other party’s steak had already turned into neatly cut cubes. It looked like it was lined up on the plate.

Moreover… Nan Qiao rubbed her eyes and looked even more carefully. The size of these beef pieces could be said to be exactly the same. It was simply a blessing for OCD patients.

“Okay.”

Nan Qiao nodded and started to cut again. She saw Murong Zheng’s satisfied gaze.

She didn’t think that it would affect her eating, but since Murong Zheng requested it, Nan Qiao did as asked.

After this incident, Nan Qiao realized Murong Zheng’s “strangeness”.

The scene of Xian Yu calling him a beast suddenly surfaced in Nan Qiao’s mind.

She seemed to know why Fifth Brother’s evaluation of Nan Jin was that of a beast.

Just by looking at the dishes, Nan Qiao felt that the other party was very strange. Her gaze secretly moved to the person.

Even the way he ate was rigid like a robot!

Nan Qiao quickly opened her mouth and ate a piece of meat. She was even more determined to leave after eating.

If she continued to interact with Murong Zheng like this, she was afraid that she would become a robot too..
