Prologue XVIII a la carte

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and I quietly stared at Lux's pretty face, her face still showing two flushes, making her look as adorable as a delicate porcelain doll, and her big eyes that seemed to be able to speak were staring at me with deep shame - she was so real that the warm little hands holding each other made me confirm this fact once again.

"It's really like a dream. ”

My soft exclamation made Lux, who was looking at me, blink her eyes with a little curiosity, and in an instant, she understood the meaning of my exclamation, and she laughed like a blooming flower.

"An inexplicable extra memory can also make people feel like a dream, especially when they still existed in 'it' - even if it was only a virtual existence. ”

For Lux, this memory is indeed worthy of the four words like a dream, and besides, she can't think of any words to describe the wonder of this memory, after all, she is not very old now, is she? But when Lux thinks that the girl that the boy loves in this memory is only a virtual existence, she can't help but feel more pity for the boy - the virtual existence is not real after all, but the boy is willing to invest in this virtual existence, and this sincerity makes people have to be moved.

"Well, but everything is in the past, and now people are real. ”

After sighing, Lux chuckled and said, the hand holding my little hand tightened, reminding me with words and actions that she was no longer a virtual being.

"Hmmm......"

I answered silently, then looked at Lux again and fell silent.

The voice of our conversation was not deliberately lowered, so Li Yalin, who was sitting opposite us, naturally heard our conversation, and could not empathize with our so-called 'dreamlike' Li Yalin, although he had the idea of finding out, but considering that he was not a member of the Klein family after all, he could only be silent.

"Hello, what do you need?"

The silence didn't last long when it was interrupted by a well-dressed and good-looking waitress who, after greeting us, handed the menu to me and Lux, who did so because she knew exactly who was the real host.

Although Li Yalin on the side is an adult, he is wearing a black suit, which makes the waitress who often receives similar guests guess his correct identity, and the terrifying scar on his face is more like a proof of his identity, so that the waitress knows at a glance that he is not the master;

"Thank you......"

After thanking us, Lux took the menu and placed it on the table between us, then flipped through the menu.

The menu of the Klein Hotel restaurant is quite exquisitely printed, of course, we who are already hungry do not care about this, so after turning the first page of the hotel profile, the menu of the menu comes into view; the menu of the Klein Hotel is classified according to the type, in other words, the ordinary snacks are classified in the snack category, and the clear soup category is classified in the clear soup category, so it is easy for Lux to rummage through them.

"Well, people think about it, if I'm not mistaken, Kiki used to like to eat pork ribs the most, don't ......"

Lux, who was looking down and flipping through the menu, suddenly whispered something like this, which made me, who was sitting next to her, slightly stunned, and a warm current surged through my heart, and my body and mind only felt warm for a while...... I was touched by the idea that Lux took care of my feelings, and seriously, it had been a long time since I had eaten a dish related to pork ribs, and the smell of pork ribs seemed to fill the tip of my nose when I thought about it.

"Well, I couldn't eat on time at noon, so I drank some clear soup to pad ......my stomach before eating," Lux muttered, like an onion's index finger scribbling across the menu, looking a little hesitant and a little undecided, but when she saw the 'winter melon pork ribs and kelp soup' written on the menu, her eyes lit up and she did not hesitate to order this dish: "Then you want this dish, right?" Although the winter melon pork rib and kelp soup is quite common, I naturally couldn't make a better suggestion since I had never tasted the local cuisine, so I nodded in agreement.

Lux saw that I nodded in agreement, and began to search for the next dish, although Lux does not go out often, but as a property of the Klein family, Lux will still come to patronize one or two from time to time, but she rarely needs to order in person, so it is a little difficult to search for other dishes at this time. Luckily, there are many rib-related dishes at the Klein Hotel, so when Lux flipped through a few more pages of the menu and found dishes called 'Fried Ribs' and 'Sweet and Sour Ribs', he asked my opinion and ordered them.

After ordering these two dishes, Lux did not continue to search for them, and when she saw that I was a little confused, she smiled and explained to me, "Two dishes and one soup should be enough for us, right? As she spoke, Lux saw that my face was abrupt, and then continued, "Since this birthday is in December, with the friendly relationship between the Klein family and the Sara family, how could my father not invite Uncle Pacrit, Aunt Renoa, and Aslan to participate?"

"And in terms of Aunt Renoa's love for others, Aunt Renoah will definitely cook a table of dishes for others at that time...... The dishes are very tasty, so let's be a little patient for tonight's delicious taste, and of course, we can't go hungry. ”

I am no stranger to the Sara family in Lux's mouth, I am no stranger to the original book, especially Aslan, a character like a noble son, not to mention that he was also the fiancé of Lax in the original book...... But this will not happen again now, after all, Siegel has personally agreed to my request to join the family, and backsliding is not like Siegel's style, not to mention that there is Lux standing behind me with great determination?

"Well, I'm looking forward to it. ”

I don't know what kind of person Renoa is, after all, in the original book, she only appeared in the photo, and that's all, but since Lux is so boastful, I think Renoa's skills should not be weak, and it may even be of the level of a top chef. I'm not a foodie, but I'm still interested in tasting food, after all, no one grieves their stomach, does it?

"Then let's order these first, thank you, sister. ”

Lux said sweetly to the waitress, and then returned the menu to the waitress.

"Okay. ”

The waitress took the menu from Lux, answered the word, bowed to us, and left.

After seeing the waitress leave, Lux turned her head to look at me, as if she suddenly remembered something, and a shallow smile appeared on her pretty face, and she said softly: "By the way, Kiki, today is also your birthday, right?"

"Although in fact, my birthday in my previous life was not February 5th, but I don't know in this life, maybe my birthday in this life is the same as Lux...... After all, sometimes fate is so wonderful, isn't it?"

I said jokingly, of course, the deeper reason was to make Lux's 'setting' more reasonable, and listening to my addition, Lux tilted his little head to think about it, then nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at me with appreciation, and smiled lightly: "Kiki's addition is very correct, people think that this is a very possible thing, so they decided, and set Kiki's date of birth to February 5, 55 A.D." With that, Lux clapped her palms in satisfaction—and I shrugged helplessly.

Lux glanced at my ordinary dress, and Lux, who was not very interested in Li Yalin's aesthetics, thought about it, and said with a smile: "Since today is the birthday of people and Qiqi, then the birthday gift is naturally not missing, so let's go to the third floor of the Klein Hotel after eating this meal; temperament, so people think that they can find a set of clothes suitable for Kiki by the way, so that Kiki will at least not embarrass our Klein family in front of the Sara family. After speaking, Lux also glanced at Li Yalin lightly.

Li Yalin's terrible face showed an innocent look on Lux's scolding around the corner, but this look on his face made him look a little more vicious, and then he argued with a little grievance: "There are only these ordinary clothes near the Civic Hospital, you can't blame me, Lux." As he spoke, he paused, and said with a wry smile: "I also want to find some high-grade clothes, but all the goods sold there are stalls, and it takes a lot of time to find high-grade clothes, and I don't think I still have so much time to find a high-grade clothes for His Highness Qi." ”

Li Yalin's argument was also reasonable, but it was a pity that Lux turned her attention back to me after squinting at him, making Li Yalin saliva in vain.

When I saw Lux ignoring Li Yalin on the side and falling on me with that soft look, I thought about it for a while, and then chuckled and said: "Hehe, since Lux has given me a birthday present, then I naturally can't help but give it, but ......" Saying, I glanced at the pale yellow dress that Lux was wearing at this time, and its most eye-catching thing was a lily that meant 'purity' on its chest. The demeanor is elegant, completely different from ordinary women, just at a glance can make people feel like everyone's girlfriends, and then love it.

In fact, I think that Lux's outfit has perfectly set off Lux's appearance and temperament, so although I also intended to buy a birthday gift for Lux, the option of clothes has been subconsciously ruled out by me. While I was thinking about what to buy for Lux's birthday, I also thought about the fact that I was penniless, and as a wanderer, I could not have saved up of my own savings, and even food was given to me by passers-by for my pitiful sake...... Just thinking about this miserable life brings tears to my eyes -- why is life so tortuous? I was a marshal in my previous life, didn't I?

Well, the identity of the previous life can't be eaten after all, so I still decisively accepted the tragic fact that I was penniless and is now.

No money is no money, but I was a little embarrassed and embarrassed to ask Lux for me, but Lux who was looking at me seemed to see my embarrassment and trouble, and when I was thinking about how to scrape together some money to spend, Lux came to my side, and the hot cherry mouth also leaned against my ear, and a pleasant mutter: "Is Kiki worried about not having money to buy birthday presents for others......?" In fact, Qiqi doesn't need to worry about financial problems at all, because Qiqi can let people pay it first, and then wait for his father to give Qiqi pocket money, and Qiqi will return it to others. With that, Lux shrank back.

Hearing this, I raised my head to look at Lux, her big sapphire-like eyes winked at me cutely when she saw me staring at me, and that cute appearance instantly made me be electrified.

Seeing that I hadn't moved for a long time, Lux couldn't help blinking her eyes again, and then called softly: "Qiqi?" After calling, seeing that I was still stunned, Lux stretched out her white and tender little hand and shook left and right in front of my eyes, so that I woke up from my daze: "What's the matter?" Lux ......" I asked in a daze, but my mind still echoed the moving beauty of Lux just now.

"The way Lux blinks is so cute, I want to take it in my arms and kiss that cute face......"

As I remembered the playful, cute look that Lux had just shown, I thought so in my head.

"Hmm...... Qiqi is really, have you listened to people seriously?"

Lux's pretty face showed a look of coquettishness, and even her tone was like a coquette, and she almost grabbed my hand and shook it back and forth.

"Uh......"

I must admit that I really didn't notice what Lux was saying just now, so when I heard Lux's coquettishness, I was immediately embarrassed, and I didn't know what to say for a while.

"Well, forget it...... Now Kiki listens to people. ”

Seeing that my expression was embarrassed again, Lux gently let me go and didn't pursue it too much, but her big eyes that seemed to be able to speak revealed the meaning of 'if Qiqi doesn't listen carefully, people will be really angry', so I naturally didn't dare to be presumptuous, and listened attentively.

"Didn't Kiki say that he wanted to buy a birthday present for someone? For Kiki's birthday gift, people are very, very, very looking forward to it. ”

The soft tone and light words rang in my ears, and the excitement in my tone made me smile, but the word 'very' that Lux mentioned three times in a row made me feel a huge Yali ...... Oh Maiga, to be honest, I don't know what Lux prefers right now, and what gifts I need to give her to make her happy and happy, and the already tangled questions have suddenly become quite tangled.

Actually, I had a great gift for me, but considering that it wasn't the time yet, and I wanted to use it as my engagement ring with Lux, I didn't bring it up again. I looked up and saw that Lux was looking at me with an expectant look in her eyes, so I nodded cautiously and said softly, "I will definitely choose a gift that will make Lux happy and happy." "Sure, that's true, but I still don't know what to buy for Lux.

"Hmmm......"

Lux couldn't help but be slightly stunned when she saw the boy respond cautiously, she couldn't imagine that the boy would be so serious and solemn, but thinking of everything she knew from the boy's memory, Lux immediately understood why the boy was so cautious - no doubt, in the boy's heart, the name ' Lux's self was the most important, and though it wasn't impossible to joke with herself, the boy would obviously not take such an almost formal request as a joke, but would take it seriously, and just look at him as silent at this moment, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, he could tell that he had begun to think about what gift to choose for himself.

"Originally, people still had some doubts, but ...... Kiki's seriousness makes people feel ashamed, people shouldn't doubt Kiki's deep love for others, after all, everything people know from Kiki's memories has already shown that Kiki values others......"

Lux sat quietly, staring at the boy who was still thinking in front of her, the boy's serious attitude made Lux completely hesitate, Lux did not deny that she had liked the boy since she accepted the boy's memory, and she would not deny that her current budding heart was for the boy.

The joy, emotion, and warmth that surged in her heart made Lux's big eyes smile into two crescents unconsciously, and even the hand holding the boy's little hand was clenched tighter, and she looked at the boy quietly for a while, before she said in a voice so low that only she could hear it: "People's ...... Looking forward to it. ”

……

"I'm so confused, what kind of gift do I want to buy...... Well, what do you want to do with all this? When you finish lunch and go to the third floor of the Klein Hotel, don't you know what kind of gift will make Lux happy? But then again, is the third floor of the Klein Hotel a supermarket?"

As someone who hasn't been to the Klein Hotel before, I naturally don't know what the third floor of the Klein Hotel is for, but if I can infer from the words in Lux's mouth, it should be a hodgepodge mall similar to a supermarket, otherwise Lux wouldn't have chosen to buy me clothes there, would it?

"By the way, Lux, what's the third floor of the Klein Hotel?"

Since I don't know what the third floor of the Klein Hotel does, then I naturally have to exert the great spirit of not being ashamed to ask, and in response to my inquiry, Lux thought for a while before saying, "There are many things sold on the third floor of the hotel, including clothing stores, jewelry stores, pharmacies, optical stores, candy stores, toy stores, and so on...... Anyway, there are a lot of them, and they are very complete. "Well, Lux doesn't really go around very often, and the reason why she knows this is because Alice mentioned it to her, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to tell why, but one thing is for sure - there is definitely a clothing store in there.

"Oh......"

I suddenly responded, according to Lux, there are still a lot of things sold on the third floor of the Klein Hotel, and the variety is quite complete, but if there are any gifts suitable for Lux, that will be known to the field.

"Reed is here. ”

Li Yalin didn't care about my conversation with Lux, but the sweetness we unintentionally exuded between each other made Li Yalin a little restless, which forced him to look out frequently, in addition to avoiding the scene that made him feel envious and jealous and hateful, but also to pay attention to whether Reed had come. And when he turned his head to look at the door of the restaurant again, Li Yalin finally looked forward to the long-awaited Reed, dressed in a black suit and wearing sunglasses, Reed looked quite eye-catching among the pedestrians in the restaurant, which made Li Yalin see him at first sight, and then after reminding me to say a word to Lux, he raised his hand and waved to Reed standing at the door of the restaurant.

Lux and I, who were reminded by Li Yalin, also temporarily stopped talking, turned to look at the door of the restaurant, and sure enough, we saw Reed in a black suit walking briskly towards us......

"Come, Reed, sit ......"

The seat we had chosen wasn't far from the restaurant's entrance, so it didn't take long for Reed to sit next to him at the beckoning of Lee Ah-lin.
