Let's Get Married

Rex brings the little kid to J City’s most famous breakfast restaurant, the Cuisine Royale. The owner is a southern local who is very good in his cooking skills. Rex likes to enjoy his breakfast here; sometimes he will order his assistant to help him take away food from this restaurant to his company.

The car speeds along smoothly, and the interior is dead silent. Although nobody is talking throughout the journey, there isn’t any sign of awkwardness in the car; instead it feels warm and peaceful.

When they reach Cuisine Royale, it is almost eight o’clock, and there is already a queue in front of the restaurant. Many people can’t find an empty table to eat there; therefore they usually take away the food. Amongst them are people of all ages, and some people come with their children.

Rex parks his car and quickly guides the child down from the passenger seat. As the child is stabilizing himself, he doesn’t withdraw his hand as he holds on to that soft and tender tiny hands. His heart is turbulent with excitement but he tries not to show it on his face.

When they are on the way, he has already informed the owner of the restaurant to reserve a private dining room for them. They go to the second floor and a waiter is already there preparing to serve them when they sit down.

Rex doesn’t go through the menu; instead he asks Adair, “Do you have anything you want to eat?”

Adair peeks at the menu, and sniffs rather unnaturally, “I don’t understand what’s written here.”

He grew up in England, and his Chinese was taught by Lily all along, but since he was still young, there are a lot of words which he doesn’t understand.

Rex only realizes this later on, since he never has any interaction with this child, he reprimands himself for being careless. He nervously asks, “Adair, you prefer something sweet or salty?”

“Sweet.”

Rex orders a rice porridge, some pho, a bowl of noodles as his eyes fall on the side dishes on the bottom right corner of the menu. Prawn dumplings, custard bun, barbequed pork bun, osmanthus cake, curry fish eggs… these are all Lily’s favourite food. He recalls them coming here to eat long ago, and she had eaten so much back then.

When he thinks of this, his gaze becomes mellow as he orders all of her favourite dishes. He doesn’t care that she’s not here at the moment.
