Crossroads

Chapter 286

“What are you looking at?”

A handsome man approached and took the seat on her right side. It was Vincent who had returned with two packaged bowls of congee on the table.

“You took so long just for this” Stephanie withdrew her gaze and observed as he carefully laid out the two bowls of congee.

When it came to indulgence and enjoyment. Vincent was a world–class expert.

He disdainfully glanced at her. “You’ve got no taste.“

Initially, he had gone to the hotel to drag her out to Central Point, but she insisted on not going. As for the reason, Stephanie candidly told him she didn’t want to see certain people, and he accepted that as her strange relationship with Dominick wasn’t a secret. Perhaps afraid she would starve in the hotel, he boldly declared that he would take her to taste the most authentic and delicious things in Harlington.

“Wyun hasn’t been selling her famous congee for a long time. Handsome, are you her relative? It looks really good!”

Loak personally brought over several plates of dishes and leaned in to look at the two bowls of congee Vincent had brought, showing surprise and joy. He gave them a thumbs up. This congee is the best around here..

“She retired ten years ago after making a fortune, but every time I come to Harlington, I go to his house for a meal”

Vincent behaved like a classy and wealthy gentleman, smiling charmingly as he communicated effortlessly with Look.

Stephanie was very surprised at his language skills.

She quickly grabbed his sleeve and emphasized, “Tell him I want cilantro. I want to put a lot of cilantro in this congee.” She loved the taste of cilantro.

Loak smiled and praised, “Your girlfriend is so beautiful, just like a celebrity”

“She’s not my girlfriend” Vincent’s face tensed slightly, his voice raising in denial

Stephanie gave a charming smile and said simply, which was understood by everyone around them, “Because he likes men.”

Loak stiffened for a moment, staring at Vincent with a complicated expression before he quickly declared loudly. “Don’t worry, we support your kind of people tool”

Vincent’s face darkened.

Stephanie ordered two dozen beers, drinking them while occasionally pounding the table in laughter.
