Chapter 46

There were gla.s.s chandeliers on the roofs that sparkled from the sunlight sweeping through the gla.s.s roof .

The workers were standing in a straight line with the ambitions of getting picked as the guide for the shoppers in the mall .

Luke walked up to the first person in line and asked, "Will you be willing guide us?"

It was more like the worker couldn't refuse as he answered back eagerly since it was part of his job, "Of course my dear customers!"

"What are you looking to buy today?" The worker asked while wearing his brightest smile .

Advertis.e.m.e.nt"A custard bun and strawberry milk," Luke answered back .

The worker's face looked kind of confused with his face shriveling up in confusion by Luke's statement . However, he quickly changed his face back to his brightest smile and got ready to serve us .

"Then I'll escort you to a dessert shop, my dear customers . "

It was only then did I realize how luxurious the hotel was than I initially thought it was . The other shoppers had their servers hold their bags for them as they had a seperate staff member in each store trying to sell them an product .

Whenever a shopper exited a store, the whole line of staff bowed down to say farewells to the customer as well as thanks for shopping in their store .

While I was observing our surroundings, we already led to a dessert shop with a fancy twist to it . The chairs had the typical white silk cloth around it with the tables topped with a s.h.i.+ny white table cloth with flowers embroidered into it .

The workers were holding the customer's belongings while the others were enjoying their meals .

No matter how many times I was forced into this situation, I still couldn't get used to the weird vibe from having the elites being constantly served by others . I was already feeling intimidated by seeing the other shoppers, so I didn't feel like acting the same way as them .

I reluctantly sat down onto the chair when the worker pulled my chair out to indicate I should sit down . When I was about to order by myself, the worker had already gotten Luke's approval and went to the counter to get our desserts .

Sigh . Part of the fun in shopping was actually seeing all the desserts lined up behind the gla.s.s display .

The fancy version of the custard bun and the strawberry milk in a crystal gla.s.s cup made me lose my appet.i.te since I knew I needed to eat them gracefully instead of actually enjoying them .

While I was pondering about what to do next, a girl with ash brown hair wearing a elegant blue ribbon hairband came up to us . Her doll-like looks accentuated the clothes that she wore, like that pure white frilled dress and the elegant smile that came with it .

"Wow! It's a coincidence seeing you here again Luke!" The girl said to get Luke's attention .

However, Luke showed no change in his expression as he was focused on eating his tiramisu cake and earl grey tea .

The girl frustrated by Luke's indifference added, "I'm actually Rika's student and that's how I was able to meet you . "

Luke slightly nodded and then went back to enjoying his cake .

I don't know why but it seemed that from the past years of living with Luke, I got to know that he wasn't that talkative if he considered it wasn't necessary among the people he wasn't familiar with . More like it looked like he was trying to avoid talking to them and especially if it was people that were the opposite gender .

I wondered what may have been the cause in the past as I asked Alex in elementary school . Apparently it was part of a trauma from attending a family socialite party when he was three years old . He didn't tell me anything further than this but I could already somehow guess what happened .

He was probably swarmed by a large crowd of girls at the party with his good looks like it usually happens in shoujo mangas with the male lead .

I guess this was why we were having this awkward situation now .

The girl who once seemed overwhelmingly friendly in the cla.s.sroom was now starting to give me threatening glances to say something to get rid of this stiff atmosphere .

I knew I that Luke was counting on me to do something about this while he was evilly enjoying his cake .

Sigh . This was all happening because Luke didn't want to let me go sightseeing outside the hotel .
