Chapter 99: I'm Going Crazy with Jealousy
The stubborn madness came out from the cracks in his bones.

It clamored and urged him to do something next.

Lu Shixu didn't even notice that his eyes were slightly out of focus, as if his soul was stuck in a quagmire.

Tao An, who was sitting opposite him, was so scared that he shrank into the corner of his chair.

"Mr. Lu, the food is getting cold."

Tao An gritted his teeth and held on to the last bit of his duty as an assistant, pushing the dish that had just been served forward.

His action was like a small hammer, knocking open the layer of ice that was silently spreading around Lu Shixu.

The aroma of the food penetrated into the ice through the cracks in the ice.

Lu Shixu suddenly came back to his senses.

He looked at the food in front of him and picked up his chopsticks.

Pick it up, put it in your mouth, and chew it.

An indescribable deliciousness spreads in your mouth.

The missing hole in my heart was filled by direct sensory stimulation.

His soul, floating in the darkness, followed the path and landed on the ground because of this delicious food.

Is eating such a happy thing?
Lu Shixu didn’t know.

When he was 7 years old, his mother wanted to drag him into the fire to die together.

He struggled desperately, leaving his crazy mother behind and fleeing without looking back...

Since then, he seemed to have lost his sense of life.

Others will develop a desire for life because the sky is blue, the wind is warm, and the food is satisfying.

But he never does.

He didn't even understand what it felt like.

Until now, he had eaten the meals prepared by Nanzhi himself.

"delicious."

He muttered to himself.

Tao An, who overheard it by accident, almost thought he was hallucinating.

Then, Tao An watched with his own eyes as Lu Shixu finished eating all the dishes bit by bit.

There wasn't even a leaf left.

Tao An couldn't help it:

"Mr. Lu, is your stomach okay?"

Everyone around Lu Shixu knew that he had mild anorexia and would not eat unless necessary.

Long-term irregular eating habits caused him to suffer from serious stomach problems.

For a healthy adult man like Tao An, the amount of one meat and one vegetable is just right.

But for Lu Shixu, it was a bit too much.

"I'm very good."

Lu Shixu put down his chopsticks.

It seems that he is still a little unsatisfied.

Tao An found it incredible.

At the same time, the thought kept coming to my mind:

Mr. Lu's three meals a day have always been a difficult problem. If he comes to Nan's Restaurant to take away food every day, then...

Suddenly, a childish voice interrupted Tao An's thoughts:

"Customer, the store is about to close. Do you want to pay the bill?"

Tao An turned his head and saw a little boy appearing beside the table.

He has delicate features, and although he is only 3 or 4 years old, he holds the account book in all seriousness and speaks a set of service skills, like a professional waiter!

Having watched the show countless times, Tao An naturally recognized that the boy in front of him was Miss Nanzhi's son Nan Yi.

So, it is possible for me to become Mr. Lu’s son in the future?

Tao An was shocked, as if he saw a broad road opening before his eyes...

"Buy it! Of course I'll buy it! How much is it? Do you need my help to calculate it?"

Tao An was particularly attentive.

Nan Yi pursed her lips and refused in a serious manner:

"No, thanks."

Although Tao An wanted to actively curry favor with Nan Yi because of his relationship with Mr. Lu, seeing Nan Yi pretending to be a serious little adult...

How to do!
I’m touched by the cuteness!
Nan Yi looked at Tao An warily, always feeling that this uncle was weird.

He calmly stepped aside and handed out the bill.

He then raised the payment code sign hanging on his chest, which had been used since the last photo shoot.

This reminded Tao An of the scenes in the show. He felt quite happy and happily scanned the code to pay.

Nan Yi nodded politely:

"see you next time."

Then he looked at Tao An, and Tao An looked at him.

They stared at each other, and no one moved.

Tao An reacted a little late:
"Ah...oh, we want to sit for a while longer! Can we?"

"Ok."

Nan Yi's little face drooped, looking reluctant.

After all, all the other customers in the store have left, leaving only this table.

But one of them was a man who had left a bad impression on him!
Nan Yi quickly glanced at Lu Shixu and realized that this man had been looking at him.

He frowned unhappily.

What are you looking at?

The flesh on Nan Yi's little face became even tighter.

He calmly put the account book into his sweatshirt pocket, pretended not to care about Lu Shixu's gaze, and took the initiative to clean up the plates.

"I'll come, I'll come!"

Tao An stood up hurriedly.

Even if it wasn't for the sake of pleasing others, Tao An, as an adult, couldn't just sit there and watch a child serve dishes and do nothing.

Nan Yi didn't appreciate it, but avoided his hand:

"You're a guest, you should rest! I can do it!"

His eyes were particularly bright and full of stubbornness.

"Let him come."

This is what Lu Shixu said to Tao An.

After struggling, Tao An had no choice but to sit back.

He watched Nan Yi's actions with fear and trepidation, only to find that this child was much smarter than he thought.

There was vegetable soup on the plate, so Nan Yi poured the soup into the bowl first to prevent it from spilling while walking;

All the plates piled together were too much for Nan Yi to handle, so he made several trips to move a little at a time.
After the plates were removed, Nan Yi took the rag again, held it in her two little hands, and wiped it laboriously but carefully, making sure every corner was clean;
After finishing the work, Nan Yi asked Lu Shixu and Tao An if they needed tea.

...It can be said that the service is very good.

Tao An wanted to refuse.

But Lu Shixu nodded:
"It's troublesome."

Nan Yi nodded and turned around.

He stood on a small stool, and his frail arms trembled as he picked up the heavy teapot to pour water, his face flushed red.

Tao An really couldn't bear it, and whispered:

"Sir, he is so young, and we just watch him without giving him a hand. Isn't that a bit too much?"

And you want to chase after her biological mother!
Shouldn't we try our best to please him and satisfy all his demands?

Lu Shixu said:
"He would rather you respect his job than take care of him because you are young."

Tao An wanted to laugh.

What kind of job can such a small person have...

and many more.

Whether it's paying the bill or cleaning, doesn't Nan Yi do it very well?
Why should he be so arrogant and eager to deny it?

"Sir, you are so insightful!"

Tao An gave a little flattery.

Lu Shixu didn't say anything.

He stared at Nan Yi in silence, his mind turning over and over again -

Who is the father of this child?
Who else has left a significant mark in Nanzhi's life?
Although his reason told him that these were things of the past and he shouldn't take them to heart.

But how could he not care?
Just imagining Nanzhi being intimate with another man made him jealous to the point of going crazy!
