Meanwhile, Jiang Muxue was still observing everyone's reactions when she saw Lin Zhou start eating, so she carefully picked up a chicken wing as well.

Just then, she felt a very light touch under her table.

Noticing Jiang Muxue's movements, Lin Zhou gently touched the tip of her shoe under the table.

Jiang Muxue was slightly taken aback. She looked up and met Lin Zhou's gaze.

Lin Zhou was afraid of being noticed by the camera, so he could only signal to her with his eyes not to eat.

Jiang Muxue blinked, paused for a moment before understanding the meaning in Lin Zhou's eyes, and then obediently put down her chopsticks.

Fortunately, the stir-fried pork with green peppers was alright; apart from the pork being a bit tough, the taste was acceptable.

But here is the problem.

Because Lin Zhou and Jiang Muxue were sitting in a corner, the only food placed in front of them was the two that Lin Zhou had just tasted.

The other dishes and soups were in the middle and on the other side. Lin Zhou could reach them easily, but Jiang Muxue's table manners, which she had been taught since childhood, made it impossible for her to stretch her arm across half the table to reach the food.

Although Lin Zhou had gestured to him which dish he could eat, she only glanced at it twice before quietly looking at the small half-bowl of white rice in her own bowl.

The viewers in the live stream quickly noticed this.

Why isn't Jiang Muxue touching her chopsticks? Is she too shy to pick up food?

[Perhaps I don't like the food in front of me.]

The downside of the long table is that she's sitting too far to the side and can't reach the dishes she likes in the middle.

[The etiquette in wealthy families is really strict; if it were me, I would have been standing on the table to grab things by now.]

Lin Zhou observed all of this. He put down his chopsticks and casually said to Jiang Yi, "Teacher Jiang, this soup smells delicious. It's not convenient for me to eat here, could you please pass it to me?"

This gave Jiang Yi face, and he nodded with satisfaction, "No problem!"

As he spoke, he pushed the soup bowl toward Lin Zhou.

So Lin Zhou casually handed over the dish in front of him, subtly swapping it with the other dishes.

Would you like some soup?

Thinking that the other party might be too embarrassed to take the initiative, he asked Jiang Muxue seemingly casually.

A hint of gratitude flashed in Jiang Muxue's eyes. She nodded gently and whispered, "Thank you."

Holy crap, Lin Zhou is amazing!

[Knowing that Jiang Muxue was shy, he took the initiative to take care of her. Why does it suddenly feel so sweet to watch this?]

This is a real plus! Such attention to detail.

[If I weren't a lucky guest, I might actually have had a chance.]

Is the story of a rich heiress falling for a poor boy really going to happen?!

[Upstairs, do you think this is a novel? That's impossible!]

Su Manhua, worried that her daughter might not eat well while in the hotel, even watched the live stream between meals.

After seeing that her daughter had only eaten a few bites of rice, she knew that the food prepared by the guest must not be very good.

She even wanted to call her best friend and ask her to bring her daughter lunch during her lunch break.

However, seeing how Lin Zhou took care of her daughter, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Watching the live stream, you can see that the two dishes Lin Zhou just placed in front of his daughter were probably quite delicious.

At least we won't be eating only white rice anymore.

She looked Lin Zhou up and down, and her impression of him improved even more.

In fact, Li Sujuan had not considered the issues she was worried about at all.

She had no objection to Jiang Muxue and Lin Zhou becoming friends.

The other person's attentiveness and sense of propriety in taking care of their daughter were not feigned.

As for the difference in family background?

Compared to those who approached her with ulterior motives, Lin Zhou's humble yet assertive and considerate character was much more pleasing to her.

To achieve this at such a young age is already quite impressive.

Moreover, in her eyes, the differences between the guests were not significant.

As long as my daughter is happy, that's all that matters.

Towards the end of the meal, although the female guests praised the food, they barely touched the dishes on the table.

That plate of green beans was only touched by two people at first, and then never touched again.

Jiang Yi naturally realized this as well, so he could only subtly shift the topic to other topics.

We chatted casually for a few minutes, and lunch ended hastily.

As Jiang Yi arranged, those who hadn't gone to the kitchen to help were required to clear the table and wash the dishes.

Just like cooking, washing dishes gets more chaotic when there are more people. Judging from Su Man and Shen Jiashu's appearance, they probably have never been in the kitchen before. They thought that instead of wasting time crammed together, they should finish the job quickly and then have some free time to rest.

Lin Zhou decided to take the initiative and said, "How about I do the dishes? You guys just need to tidy up the table."

"Then I'll put the dishes in the kitchen."

Shen Jiashu nodded: "I'll take care of cleaning up the rest of the table."

Soon, the cleaned-up dishes were piled up in the sink.

Meanwhile, Jiang Muxue watched the group in the living room chatting animatedly about the afternoon's itinerary, then glanced at Lin Zhou, who was about to head to the kitchen, and whispered, "I... can I go with you?"

She genuinely disliked this lively atmosphere.

"what?"

Lin Zhou paused for a moment, then turned to look at her.

Seeing Jiang Muxue clutching the hem of her clothes, her eyes filled with a hint of unease, it was clear she didn't want to stay in this lively scene.

He understood immediately, and nodded with a slight smile, "Okay, thank you for helping me."

Jiang Muxue's eyes lit up instantly, and she quickly followed in his footsteps, like a well-behaved little tail, walking into the kitchen step by step.

Jiang Yi looked puzzled when he saw this.

What does Jiang Muxue mean by this? Why would she rather spend her time washing dishes with that lucky guest than with them?

Why choose the most inconspicuous lucky guest when there are so many excellent male guests available?

Inside the kitchen, Lin Zhou had already tied on his apron and turned on the tap to run the water.

His movements were very practiced; you could tell at a glance that he was someone who did housework regularly.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Muxue felt a little embarrassed to stand there, but she didn't know what to do.

From childhood to adulthood, household chores have always been handled by designated people, let alone things like washing dishes.

Seeing her like this, Lin Zhou couldn't help but smile and handed her a clean rag: "Don't be nervous. You just need to dry the dishes I washed and put them on the drainer. It's very simple."

These words seemed to reassure her, and she nodded, quickly replying in a low voice, "Okay."

As a result, the scene between the two became very harmonious.

Do you often wash dishes at home?

Lin Zhou didn't expect Jiang Muxue to initiate a conversation. He glanced at her and smiled, "Yeah, you live alone, so if you don't do these chores, no one will do them for you, right?"

"oh."

Jiang Muxue nodded thoughtfully. After a while, she pursed her lips and asked hesitantly:

Why did you agree to be friends with me?
