Chapter 483
Scarlett Yates bowed her head, sullenly drawing circles on the table.
The Boss came over, greeting warmly, “Little Yates, do you still want the extra spicy pot like before? I remember you and Stella loved this flavor the most p>
Scarlett was about to nod out of habit but suddenly remembered Matthew Saxon doesn’t like spicy food, so she immediately shook her head, “Let’s have a half-and-half pot and try something new p>
The Boss paused, then looked at her and Matthew Saxon meaningfully, “Alright, half-and-half pot. Since you’ve brought such a handsome guest today, I’ll give you a half-price discount p>
After saying that, he turned around, put a towel over his shoulder, and shouted, “Table 7, one half-and-half pot p>
Half-price?
Scarlett and Stella Nelson both looked up at Matthew Saxon, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy.
Well, being good-looking can really be rewarding. They’ve been coming for three years, but when did they ever get such a low discount?
This Boss is overly obsessed with appearances, isn’t he? Even eating requires good looks.
The two silently complained for a while, then buried their heads and began chatting fervently.
Stella Nelson and Scarlett Yates reunited, naturally having loads to talk about.
Despite experiencing betrayal in her relationship, Stella’s mood didn’t stay low for long; after the initial sadness and anger, she seemed to quickly move past the breakup. After a few beers, her face returned to its radiant smile.
She began reminiscing about her life at school, her slightly squinted eyes revealing a touch of longing and nostalgia for the past.
“Scarlett, do you remember the scene when we first met p>
Scarlett also squinted in remembrance, laughing as she nodded, “Yes, back then you didn’t know anything; even your bed setup and bedding were arranged by your mom p>
Stella smiled and nodded, “Right, back then I was the only one in the dorm who didn’t know anything and was looked down upon by others for quite a while p>
“Stella, I remember once when you washed a big basin of clothes and were carrying it from the laundry room to the stairs, the basin was accidentally flipped over, and all the washed clothes fell to the ground and got all dusty. You sat there crying for a whole hour p>
“Haha, that’s right. In the end, your kind heart saw me being so pitiful and helped me take back the dirty clothes and wash them clean again. Scarlett, how was I so pathetic back then?” As she recalled past events, Stella’s mood evidently improved, slapping the table with her hand as she laughed heartily.
Scarlett joined in the laughter, her eyes curved with mirth, “Yes, and then you treated me to a meal, saying you definitely wanted to be friends with me p>
That was the first step in their becoming friends.
Following that, as the two learned more about each other, their friendship deepened, becoming inseparable best friends.
Matthew Saxon silently played his role as the listener, not uttering a word from beginning to end.
Of course, under such circumstances, he didn’t have the chance to say anything anyway.
As the two chatted away, it seemed they had already forgotten his presence.
The soup in the pot boiled.
Half clear soup, half spicy soup.
Matthew Saxon looked at the red broth filled with churning chili and peppercorns, and as he inhaled the spicy aroma in the air, even though he hadn’t eaten a bite, he already felt overwhelmed.
