    “Ding—” At this time, the elevator door opened.


    Huo Yi led them through a beautiful long corridor and into the beach.


    A vast beach with no end in sight was cordoned off, void of people. There were only seagulls and the relentless waves crashing against the coastline, a breathtaking sight!


    At the shore, a group of waiters filed in, setting up all sorts of seafood on the long table nearby.


    “For today’s lunch, seafood will be prepared by the head chef from a Michelin Restaurant in the Ryukyu Inds. Young Master Li, Miss Chi, please enjoy at your leisure,” Huo Yi said gentlemanly as he pulled out a chair for Chi Enen. After she sat down, he pushed the chair in slightly and stood respectfully to the side, as quiet as if he were an invisible man.


    Chi Enen stared at the hairy crab and the array of crab tools in front of her, dumbfounded.


    What should she do if she didn’t know how to use these tools?


    Several waiters stood by the dining table, one pouring water, another holding a hot towel. Chi Enen nced ufortably at the man sitting a meter away from her, unsure of where to put her hands and feet.


    What should she do?


    With so many people watching her, would she embarrass him if she didn’t know how to use the tools?


    Men are often prideful. If she embarrassed Li Beijue here, would she be thrown out directly?


    Being thrown out didn’t bother her much, but this was Country W, and she didn’t even have enough money on her to buy a flight ticket. If she were thrown out, how would she get back?


    In just a few minutes, countless thoughts raced through Chi Enen’s mind.


    At this time, a beauty waitress suddenly came over with a dinner te from Li Beijue’s side.


    “Miss Chi, Young Master Li asked me to bring this to you.” She set down the dinner te, and Chi Enen, upon seeing it, was stunned for a moment.


    The silver dinner te neatly held a segmented hairy crab. It seemed as if the owner of the te knew she wouldn’t know how to use the crab tools and had thoughtfully cracked the hard shell on each crab leg. She only needed to peel it a little to eat.


    Had Li Beijue done this for her?


    Chi Enen instinctively looked over, but the dining table was too long, and she could only clearly see the man’s resolute profile.


    “Miss Chi, shall 1 take this hairy crab away for you?” the waitress asked at this time.


    Chi Enen snapped back to reality and nodded, “Please take it, thank you.”


    “Of course. Miss Chi, please enjoy,” the waitress said as she took away the previous te.


    Chi Enen’s gaze returned to the table as she picked up the knife and fork and started to wrestle with the hairy crab on the te.


    Seafood by the seaside tasted fresh and was cooked by a top-ss chef. It fully retained the original vor of the hairy crab,plemented by mint to offset any fishiness. The crab meat was plump and the roe richly vorful. Chi Enen had never tasted such delicious crab before, and even after finishing the whole thing, she still savored the taste of the crab roe.


    After lunch.


    The waiters cleared the dishes from the table efficiently and then brought dessert.


    Chi Enen really couldn’t eat anymore, drank just two sips of orange juice, and then put down the ss.


    Huo Yi came over respectfully and asked, “Miss Chi, have you finished eating?”


    Chi Enen, feeling full, nodded, “Yes, I’m done.”


    “Please follow me.”


    “Where to?” Chi Enen asked hesitantly, ncing at the man not far away.


    Wasn’t Li Beijue joining?


    Huo Yi, seemingly reading what was on her mind, patiently exined, “Master Jue has an important meeting this afternoon. I’ll take Miss Chi back to the room to rest. Once Master Jue’s meeting is over, 1 will call Miss Chi.”


    So he had a meeting to attend…


    Chi Enen, who never intended to cling to Li Beijue every moment, was eager for some alone time. She promptly got up and followed Huo Yi….
