Chapter 266 Someone Wants To Kill Me

Benjamin made a reservation at a seafood restaurant for the evening.

In the vicinity of the university, there were numerous late-night food stalls.

It was also the perfect season for enjoying beer and lobster.

Jason suggested, “Why don’t we sit at the entrance?”

Natalie replied, “Sure, I have no objections.”

Eileen nodded. “Either option is fine.”

She vividly remembered her first experience eating at a roadside booth. It happened during the previous year’s New Year’s Eve. Elm was the one who took her there. After trying it once, she ended up with an upset stomach that very night.

In order not to dampen their spirits, Eileen could only try to eat as little as possible.

A table for four was perfect.

It was evident that Benjamin and Jason had been there before. They headed to the food section. One of them picked up a plate, and between the four of them, they grabbed quite a few items.

Eileen didn’t take much, as she couldn’t eat too much.

The four of them also ordered four kilograms of lobster. When they sat back down, Jason brought over a box of beer. “You young ladies shouldn’t drink. I’ll drink with Benjamin.”

Eileen looked around at the environment. In the open space, dozens of tables were bustling with activity. “Do you come here often?” she asked..

Jason said, “Occasionally. Our friend here is quite introverted. If he’s not practicing the piano, he’s working part-time. Apart from school, he hardly interacts with anyone.”

When Benjamin arrived, he was carrying two cups of smoothie. He handed them to Natalie and Eileen. saying, “I bought these somewhere. Give them a try.”

Eileen said, “Thank you… Is this a smoothie? I’ve never had one before.”

Natalie, with a curious tone, said, “You’ve never had one? How come, Eileen? Smoothies are sold everywhere. You should try it. They’re really tasty. I drink several cups a day.”
