Chapter 591 Lanci and Hyperion’s Candlelight Dinner

 The air in the terrace garden became very quiet.

　　The expressions of both people were a little embarrassed.

Only the gentle sound of the harp comes from nowhere, as if it can make the midsummer breeze flow under the night sky.

Hyperion pretended to be calm, but her pursed lips kept trembling slightly. Recalling what had just happened, she felt like tears were about to fall from her eyes.

 She actually did it in front of Icerite Academy... No, I'm afraid it will spread to the entire Kingdom of Hutton.

Huberlian doesn’t dare to think about the reaction in Icerite Academy now.

But she was sure that the incident between her and Lan Qi would be spread wildly in the school. After all, Dean Loren's scandal was a lesson learned from the past.

 She and Lan Qi were always like this.

 Most of the time we can get along well with each other.

Occasionally something happens suddenly, and you realize that "their relationship is not like this" or "maybe it has crossed the line or it has not crossed the line". It's like breathing and blinking become manual gears, and you can't even do the most basic things.

At ordinary times, you can talk to the other person about anything without thinking about anything, and you don’t need to mind whether the other person is of the opposite sex. In short, the relationship is very good.

 Fortunately, on the terrace in summer, the night view is wide, and besides the other person, there are many scenery to divert attention.

finally.

 “Ranchi.”

Hyperion spoke.

 Her eyes were lowered.

"Um?"

Lanchi looked at Hyperion beside him.

Normally, at times like this, he would wait for Hyperion to calm down a bit before opening his mouth to comfort Hyperion. This time, Hyperion took the initiative to speak first.

"Actually, I don't blush easily because I have been accustomed to receiving the gaze of others since I was a child. Perhaps because I am half demon, I can always remain calm and cold. Even if I want to act more like a sentimental person Human girl, maybe part of it is acting.”

 She said.

 Gradually raised his head and stared at him.

 There is no need to say what follows.

 Because her red cheeks said it all—

 The reason why she changed was all because of him.

Rows of carefully trimmed exotic flowers and plants from the devil world sway gently in the breeze in the courtyard, shimmering with subtle luster, as if whispering the secrets of the night sky.

After telling the truth, Hyperion gradually seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and felt much more relaxed. She lay on the balcony fence and looked at the manor and the sea.

“When I first met you, I thought you were a cool girl with a sense of distance. Although you are very reliable as a teammate and very friendly to me, I always feel that it is not easy to have a good relationship with you.”

Lan Qi looked into the distance along her line of sight, put his arms on the stone railing, and said slowly to himself beside her,

“Unexpectedly, I didn’t realize it later, and I don’t know whether it was because I was used to the daily life of being with you, or I subconsciously didn’t want to imagine what it would be like to be without you.”

 They were back to their usual self again.

We started chatting again.

 Occasionally, I look at each other, as if thinking about some unresolved issue, but the awkwardness has completely disappeared.

It was not even found that behind them, the entrance of the terrace on the third floor, the cat boss had pushed the door open the door and asked them to have dinner.

 The cat boss walked to the wooden floor of the terrace and looked at the backs of the two chatting people in confusion.

 Although in the eyes of Boss Cat, this is how Lanqi and Hyperion get along.

 But it always feels like the shoulders of the two people are a little closer today.

However, based on the cooking time, Hyperion had just woken up for a while, and Lan Qi led her all the way downstairs. It was impossible for the two of them to make any progress in such a short time. “Meow meow, I don’t want to disturb you, but it’s already very late.”

 The cat boss will never disturb the boy or girl talking unless it is too late for dinner.

What's more, Huberian slept for most of the day and didn't even eat lunch, which would starve her body.

 However, neither of them noticed it.

"Meow meow…"

The cat boss looked at the two people chatting under the starry sky.

 The noise from the restaurant downstairs can be heard from the balcony fence. It is really not easy for them to hear you shouting there from such a distance.

"Meow!"

The cat boss gradually came closer, meowing from time to time, and deliberately making various noises on the floor, almost knocking over the chairs on the terrace.

It was finally confirmed that the two men could hear nothing.

Hyperion still had a hint of red on her face that had not faded away, which made her look even more beautiful just like makeup.

Lan Qi is no longer so dignified at this moment. He laughs from the bottom of his heart from time to time, like a high-spirited young man who has found a treasure.

 The cat boss turned his head and sighed.

 It walked back and did not disturb the two of them again.

There happened to be tables and chairs on the terrace and courtyard, so it acted as a waiter for the two of them and helped them deliver their meals.

Not long after, along with the busy figure of the small black coal briquettes in the night, you can see candlesticks and dinner set on the pure black textured dining table in the courtyard garden.

Lights dance in the corners of the terrace, the crystal of hand-made ice, the luster of wine bottles, the mist of newly served food, everything becomes more and more stunning under the refraction of light.

 The cat boss ran to the feet of the two of them.

 “It’s time to have dinner, meow!”

The little black cat raised its head and spoke to the two of them in its childish voice.

At the same time, Lan Qi and Hyperion lowered their heads as if they were waking up from a dream, and noticed the only bright eyes of Boss Cat’s dark figure in the night.

Turning around, I found that the dining table on the courtyard terrace had been decorated completely new.

 The suspended view of the open air becomes the background of the dining table. Only here does one realize more strongly that this is a palace restaurant by the brightly lit bay.

 “Thank you Mr. Cat.”

 Lanci and Hyperion happily spoke to Boss Cat, walked towards the dining table, and sat on both sides of the square table.

When night falls, the stars seem to be reflected on the dining table, giving them an absurd yet dreamy color.

 “Guest, please look at this first.”

  Boss Cat used telekinesis magic to float a black leather guide with diamond patterns to the table, and handed them the menu preview for this dinner with a professional and ritual sense.

 Lanchi opened the menu and placed it in front of Hyperion so that she could see it.

 The current appetizer on the table is fresh roast beef cut into small pieces, sprinkled with herbs, fried saltgrass leaves and transparent pear slices, and then spread on thin brown bread.

There are also thick slices of venison, marinated with salt and black pepper, pan-fried until the outside is charred and soft inside, and served with thin slices of black truffle placed between the meat slices.

“Isn’t this the dinner we had at the Demon King Yuci Restaurant? Boss Cat, when did you learn to cook Demon World cuisine?”

Hyperion was halfway through checking the menu and already knew what dinner Lan Qi Ling Cat Boss had prepared for them.
