Lara could not hide her joy when she saw Cheney here.
She walked to my other side and shyly said to Cheney, "Hello, Mr. Cheney."
"Hmm." Cheney gave a lukewarm answer.
Lara, however, was overjoyed. She sat down beside me, touched me gently with her elbow, and smiled at me. "Krista, this is the meal I got for you. Do you think it is still to your taste?"
I nodded. "Well, it's fine, thank you."
I picked up my chopsticks and bowed my head to eat.
I just want to finish eating and leave now.
Opposite from where I was sitting, Manager Sharp said, "Mr. Cheney, I wonder how many days you are going to stay in City H this time."
My eyes turned on the plate and I was listening.
"I'm not sure yet." Cheney said.
"If you will stay here, then tomorrow, I can arrange someone to take you around City H. In recent years, our City H has developed very fast and has been rated as one of the most worthwhile petty bourgeois seaside cities by netizens."
