THE food came out one dish after another. The oysters were fresh, and the foie gras possessed a rich, smooth texture. The lobster bisque was warm and thick, while the truffle pasta had a strong flavor that Luo Yan enjoyed. By the time the steak arrived, he was already full, yet he still ate. A savory sauce complemented the steak, which was cooked well done, just as he liked it. He savored each bite.
They talked while they ate. Their conversation drifted from one thing to another. Shen Ji Yun laughed at something Luo Yan said, and Luo Yan felt his heart warmed at the sound. Even when they stopped talking for a moment to eat, it never felt awkward.
When the main course was finished, the server came by to clear their plates. "Would you like to see the dessert menu?" he asked.
Shen Ji Yun nodded. "Yes, please."
