A BLACK BMW stopped at ia parking lot on a busy food hub. There were rows of fast food restaurants, barbecue places, there were even some KTV bars. This place was close to a number of schools. That's why it's fairly popular to a lot of students. Many would go here after their classes were finished to hang out with their friends.

"Uncle Tan, just wait here. We'll come back after we're done eating," Luo Yan said to the driver.

The driver felt tangled for a moment. He was worried that this place would be too chaotic for their frail second young master. How could he just leave him alone? No, he glanced at the unassuming 'boy' sitting beside the young master. Although he was not alone, could this 'boy' protect the young master? 'He' might be tall but 'he' was too thin and looked too weak. 

Luo Yan seemed to understand what the driver was thinking. So, he said, "Uncle Tan, the café we're going to is just right there." He pointed to a small establishment that was not far from the parking lot. One could clearly see it from where their car was parked. "I will call you if there's a problem and Uncle will be able to rush at a very fast speed."

The driver finally gave in hearing Luo Yan's explanation. "Okay, second young master."

Luo Yan opened the door and got out of the car, followed by Yu Jiao behind him. The two started walking towards the café. 

"Your driver seemed to care a lot about you," Yu Jiao commented.

"Well, all the people working at our house are like that. It's probably because they think I'm some kind of porcelain that would break with just a little movement," Luo Yan said but there was no tone of complaint in his voice. Instead, it was full of fondness. A sign that he didn't mind them making a fuss about him.

Yu Jiao remembered that Luo Yan was in a seven-year coma before he woke up. That's why despite being 17-year-old, he still looked like he was two or three years younger. "Don't worry. I- I'll protect Yan Yan."

Luo Yan chuckled when he heard that. "We're just going to eat at a café, not enter some battlefield. Relax. Besides, it's still early. Not a lot of students would be around. I'm sure no one would bother us."

And he was right. When they entered Sweet Escape, there were only a few people around and most of them were working adults. So, there were a lot of vacant seats available. 

"Let's go order?" he asked Yu Jiao in which the other nodded.

They walked towards the cashier. 

The cashier responsible for taking orders was quite shocked when she saw the face of one of the two students standing in front of her. He looked about 14 of 15 with soft black hair, big peach blossom eyes, and delicate white skin. She had never seen such a beautiful boy in her life. Was this boy perhaps a star? She looked at the uniform he was wearing but failed to recognize it. In contrast, the tall 'boy' standing beside him looked pretty dull. Instead of saying that they're friends, they looked more like a pair of master and servant.

But the cashier was still a professional and none of those things that she thought appeared on her face. She quickly entered serving mode and said, "Good afternoon. What can I get for you today?"

Luo Yan looked at the menu board above. There were a lot of desserts he wanted to try but he knew he couldn't indulge. It took a while before he finally decided on what to order. 

"A slice of opera cake and one wintermelon tea." He turned to Yu Jiao. "What about you, Jiao Jiao?"

"Ahm, just blueberry cheesecake and milk tea."

The cashier punched in their orders and Luo Yan paid for it. Then the cashier took a tray and put their orders there. Luo Yan was about to pick it up but Yu Jiao was faster than him.

"Let me carry it," she said. 

Luo Yan could only smile helplessly. What else could he do since she already picked the tray up? 

They sat on a table beside the floor to ceiling window. 

Luo Yan gazed down at his opera cake. He stared at the dessert composed of almond sponge cake layered with ganache and coffee and covered in chocolate glaze. Just looking at it was already making him drool. He couldn't wait to take a bite. So, he did.

The taste of coffee and chocolate was just right. Its combination was like a velvety decadence inside his mouth. It was so good that after one bite, he quickly took another.

Yu Jiao watched Luo Yan ate with gusto. Just one look and one could immediately see that he loved sweets. She didn't expect that Luo Yan would actually have a sweet tooth. No wonder he suggested that they should eat at a café. 

She, then, also proceeded on eating the blueberry cheesecake she ordered. Then she remembered the reason why she agreed with Luo Yan's suggestion to eat here. Because she had something to discuss with him.

"Yan Yan, are you going to participate at the Rookie Carnival?" 

Luo Yan picked up the wintermelon tea and drank it before answering. "Yes, me and Ah Jin both."

"Then," Yu Jiao stopped. She couldn't help but start fidgeting, feeling unbelievably nervous. "Do the two of you already have a weapon you're planning to use?" she asked in one breath.

Luo Yan's eyes suddenly brightened when he heard her question. "Are you going to ask what I think you're going to ask?"

Yu Jiao was slightly startled by Luo Yan's reaction. When she saw his bright eyes filled with undisguised excitement, she couldn't help but chuckle. Really, what was she nervous for? "Yes. Can you let me make your weapons?"

"Yes, yes, and yes. You most definitely can," Luo Yan answered with a huge smile on his face.

He was about to say more when his phone vibrated. He took it out from his pocket and saw that his older brother was calling him.
