Chapter 1302: Chapter 1301: I Just Want to Talk of Love and Romance with You
"Sir, Madam, would you like to order?" The waiter approached with the menu.
Gu Tong had reserved the restaurant but hadn’t ordered any dishes yet. If the waiter hadn’t mentioned it, she might have forgotten.
Gu Tong took the menu with one hand and pushed it in front of Li Yan, saying, "What would you like to eat?"
Li Yan glanced at the menu and calmly responded, "Steak, well-done."
He wasn’t fond of Western cuisine, so he wasn’t particular about it, but since Gu Tong liked it, he was willing to accompany her.
Gu Tong smiled faintly and said, "Then, I’ll decide." She raised her white finger, lightly tapping on a few dishes with her pink fingernails.
Whether it was French cold appetizers or seasoned soup, or even the main course steak, she ordered them all. Besides that, she also chose a few side dishes according to Li Yan’s preferences.
The waiter noted down the dishes and asked, "Do you need dessert?"
Having already ordered plenty, Gu Tong was still pondering whether to get a dessert as it might go unfinished.
Li Yan spoke first, "An Opera cake."
After confirming the order was correct, the waiter said, "Alright, sir." With that, he left to inform the kitchen to prepare the dishes.
Gu Tong’s eyes lit up and she said, "How did you know I wanted Opera cake?"
She had only had Western food with Li Yan a couple of times. The first was at Li Yan’s hometown where she cooked, and the second during their honeymoon trip at a hotel.
However, she had never ordered this dessert on either occasion.
Li Yan didn’t explain her surprise but went along with it, "I guessed."
Gu Tong widened her eyes, "Guessed?"
How delicate must a man be to guess so accurately? Even a tummy worm wouldn’t have this ability, right?
Li Yan picked a cherry from the fruit platter with one hand and handed it to Gu Tong, with a slight smile on his lips, offering no further explanation.
He didn’t tell Gu Tong how he knew.
He couldn’t possibly tell her...
That during their honeymoon trip, when they ordered Western food at a hotel, Gu Tong asked absentmindedly if they had Opera cake, and due to its absence, unconsciously showed a disappointed expression...
That expression was etched in Li Yan’s heart, so he remembered the dessert!
Perhaps in this world, the only person who could stir his emotions was Gu Tong. Because of her unconscious actions, he would be moved and remember them deeply.
Only when he was with Gu Tong, could he experience this state of mind, which others couldn’t comprehend.
Seeing her man being so mysterious, Gu Tong pouted and said, "Fine, don’t say it if you don’t want to, I’m not particularly curious~"
But she obviously looked very curious, right?
Li Yan chuckled softly, "Judging from your look, the task must be going smoothly, otherwise you wouldn’t be so interested in treating me to a meal."
For some reason, he felt that after Gu Tong returned this time, she was like a changed person, be it in temperament or mood, she had transformed, without the feeling of being suppressed to the deepest.
Li Yan didn’t know the exact reason for her change, but he understood that her transformation was good.
He didn’t need to worry about her so much anymore.
Gu Tong bit her lower lip and said, "It’s got nothing to do with the task, I just want to talk about romantic things with you."
