Chapter 42: Chapter 42: It’s So Good, I Want His WeChat

Editor: Atlas Studios

The smell of sang smoke and fresh lamb instantly enveloped us, dispelling the raw stench from before, and she finally felt like she could breathe a little easier.

They took a seat by the door where there were empty spots available.

A woman in Tibetan attire came over, menu in hand, and a teapot—the local specialty, brick tea—in the other.

“What would you two like to eat?” the Tibetan woman asked in less than standard Mandarin.

Wen Xian grabbed the menu with saliva nearly dripping from her mouth, her cravings evident as she ordered enthusiastically, “Braised yellow lamb, hand-grabbed lamb, flag-flower noodles, triple-cream stew, roasted naan, and a bowl of beef offal soup!”

Having said that, she looked over at Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao’s order was much simpler, “A large bowl of spicy noodle soup, please.”

“Sir, is just one bowl of noodles enough for you?”

The Tibetan woman, with a long braid hanging down to her chest and a hint of highland flush on her face, was fairly attractive.

As she noted down the dishes, she kept glancing at him, repeatedly catching his eye.

That look clearly contained some additional meanings.

Wen Xian: “…?”

Her eyes instantly narrowed dangerously, what the hell!

Couldn’t she see she was still sitting right there?

The next second, she suddenly coughed loudly.

The Tibetan woman smiled and left with the menu.

Once she was gone, Wen Xian crossed her arms and engaged in a stare-down with him.

Wen Xian: “You’re just having noodles? Are you going to be full enough? Are you worried about having to pay?”

Lu Xiao took a deep breath, “Shut up.”

Wen Xian: “…”

She muttered something under her breath, occasionally throwing glances at the Tibetan woman who had just left.

Finally, she couldn’t help but say, “I didn’t expect you to be so popular, women are always eyeing you wherever you go.”

She felt a tinge of jealousy, not one bit otherwise.

Lu Xiao looked up at her briefly, his eyes filled with indifference: “Are you bored or what?”

Wen Xian didn’t care; she adjusted her sitting posture, propped her cheek with one hand, and then casually started, “Not to mention, that Tibetan woman was quite good-looking.”

As she spoke, her eyes sneakily darted toward him.

Lu Xiao’s face remained unfazed as he unzipped his jacket and smoothly took it off, remarking, “I wouldn’t know, I didn’t notice.”

At his words, Wen Xian’s eyes lit up, and she finally broke into a pleased smile.

She immediately took the initiative to pour him tea eagerly.

Lu Xiao picked up his phone, seemingly messaging someone; his screen was on WeChat.

When Wen Xian pushed the tea toward him, she quickly glanced at the screen, feeling a tickle of curiosity within.

Oh boy, it was his WeChat!

Wen Xian also took out her phone, opened WeChat, and looked back at Lu Xiao’s phone with a sly gaze.

She kept her eyes glued to his phone screen.

Lu Xiao was messaging Ga Zhuo to check on progress, and upon seeing that all was going well, he was about to put down his phone.

However, he seemed to notice something and his movement paused momentarily.

When he slowly looked up, he saw her staring at his phone.

Lu Xiao put it down, “What, planning to steal my phone?”

As soon as he said that, Wen Xian coughed once and averted her gaze, then spoke with feigned sincerity,

“That’s rude to say, Lu Xiao. Here I am thinking, we’re in unfamiliar territory, should we exchange contact information or something, like phone numbers, WeChat, you know.”

So she could check his Moments whenever.

Sounds great!

[Nine Bro: Haha, guess if I can get it.]
