"Waiter, a set of tea and pastries, please!"

"Over here too..."

"We're out of tea, refills, waiter!"

After nine in the morning, the restaurant welcomed a group of guests who loved green tea and pastries.

An Ya, Mu Xiaoyue, and Sen Tian Makoto were busy at the front desk, while Xia Yu and Hozoi Midori were in the kitchen, chatting here and there.

By noon, after saying goodbye to the last table of guests, Xia Yu personally cooked a large farewell banquet to treat An Ya and Mu Xiaoyue, ensuring they were well fed.
