Shangguan You drew a sharp breath. Damn it, Zhuge Feng, this prodigy, he's grown taller again in just a few months! And his speech, tone, actions—all so incredibly mature. Worlds apart from the little boy she'd rescued in the alley, the one who'd only clung to her and cried.
Shen Jia and the others stared as Zhuge Feng entered, momentarily stunned.
"Bring out your most expensive and best dishes," Gui Mo declared loudly, noticing Shangguan You's eyes were still glued to Zhuge Feng's face.
"Yes, bring out a few of your signature dishes," Shangguan Qing said, gently taking Shangguan You's hand to draw her attention back, stopping her from staring at Zhuge Feng.
"Yes, the most expensive ones! With Master Shen here, we can't hold back," Shangguan You chuckled, then said lightly, giving Zhuge Feng a subtle wink to order the priciest dishes.
"Very well," Zhuge Feng replied with a polite smile. He gave Shangguan You a deep look before excusing himself.
