Liu Chen did not refuse and directly accepted Qin Lu's invitation.
Afterward, the two left the jewelry store and, under Qin Lu's guidance, arrived at a restaurant. The place was crowded, and they happily secured the last available table.
Qin Lu, with a smile on her face, looked across at Liu Chen and then handed the menu over to him.
"Order whatever you like," she said.
"Ladies first would be better," Liu Chen replied with a smile. Qin Lu, unable to argue with Liu Chen, bowed her head and began selecting dishes.
Meanwhile, Liu Chen was looking around when a slightly overweight man entered the restaurant and scanned the room before heading straight in their direction.
After sizing up Liu Chen and Qin Lu, the portly man spoke in an unquestionable tone.
"Could you give up your table for me?" he demanded.
At that moment, upon hearing the stranger's voice, Qin Lu, who was still deciding on her order, looked up to see the man with the protruding belly.
