Chapter 36: The Fragments of St. John's Wort

Lunch was ready.

During the meal, Li Muchen had the butler and all the servants withdraw, leaving only him and Lu Sheng alone in the spacious dining room.

Surrounded by European aristocratic classical decor, the table was filled with a variety of flavorful dishes, which were very appetizing at a glance.

The table was so long that Lu Sheng doubted whether a person sitting at one end could hear someone at the other end.

So, she disregarded dining etiquette and rules, and directly moved a chair to sit next to Li Muchen.

"Sitting there is too far, I want to be closer to you."

Her tone was casual and direct, yet very natural.

It seemed to be the first time Li Muchen encountered someone speaking to him like this, he paused for a moment and then, with a slight chuckle, pulled Lu Sheng's chair closer.

"I don't know what you like to eat, but I think you would prefer Chinese food, so I had them prepare dishes from various cuisines."

Lu Sheng indeed liked Chinese food.
