Perhaps heaven heard his wish and granted it; no one can predict the future.

Li Zhu was lost in her own thoughts, unaware that some girls in the classroom were shoving each other, and that she was looking at the profile of a girl in the back corner who was daydreaming, her face flushed with embarrassment.

It's probably some girls who secretly admire Li Zhu and want to invite her to a bonfire party together.

Unfortunately, only a few people can overcome their inner fears. Some people, even with their faces flushed, are used to peeking from afar and therefore hesitate to approach.

Not long after.

Six o'clock arrived quietly.

A glint flashed in Li Zhu's dull eyes, as if he had sensed some mysterious call. He suddenly stood up and strode out of the classroom with a triumphant air.

"???"

"Has something happened?"

"Why did Li Zhu suddenly run out?"

"Greek milk".

How could pampered young ladies like them understand the importance of food? Having experienced the baptism of high school life in China, Li Zhu is ready to transform into a hungry wolf when the time comes!

In the classroom, the poor girls were still hesitating whether to go up and talk to him, but he had already run to the cafeteria.

Sure enough, hesitation leads to defeat.

……

There weren't many people in the restaurant yet, perhaps because Li Zhu arrived at just the right time, which meant there weren't many people there.

"This, this, and that..." Li Zhu slurped her saliva, pointing at the tempting dishes on the menu.

"That's all?" The chef nodded and asked casually, as was customary, to confirm the guest's choice.

"Yes, yes, I don't need any of these, just give me one of everything else."

That's right, Li Zhu ordered the foods she didn't like first, and then she had to taste the rest of them.

"???"

But the chef's small eyes widened slightly because of his obesity, and a look of doubt appeared on his chubby face, as if he thought he had misheard.

Who is this young man? How can he be so ruthless?

"Let's leave it at that for now," Li Zhu replied with a satisfied nod.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Although he was surprised, he didn't say much, silently noted down the dishes, and asked the person next to him to turn around and prepare.

What? You're saying Li Zhu definitely won't be able to finish all this food?

If you can't finish it, you can always take it home, right?

My mom hasn't had anything this good in a long time; I must bring some back for her to try.

"By the way, is takeout allowed here?" Li Zhu suddenly asked the chef who was writing down the order form.

"can."

Upon hearing his words, the chef's expression became even stranger. However, considering that the entire evening's expenses were covered by the Kujo family, it was inevitable that some ill-intentioned people would overspend.

Could this kid be an enemy of the Kujo family? Isn't he afraid of being targeted for being so high-profile?

"Great!"

Let's fleece capitalism to its heart's content!

After ordering, he sat contentedly to the side, tapping lightly on the table as he watched more people slowly enter the restaurant.

"Hello, I'd like to order."

"Sorry, you will have to wait a while. There are still many dishes waiting to be cooked."

"???"

Someone ordered food, but found that it was temporarily unavailable.

"There are less than a third of the people sitting here yet. Are you really that busy?"

How could a restaurant that isn't supposed to be crowded be so "busy"?

Upon asking, it turned out that someone had ordered more than thirty dishes in one go!

Which guy ordered over thirty or nearly forty dishes? Your mom is basically hogging twenty queue numbers all by herself!

"Impressive." Those people had strange expressions on their faces and couldn't help but say this.

Finally, with no other option, everyone had to wait on the sidelines.

Then a dramatic scene unfolded: within ten minutes, the chefs had filled the table of this gluttonous fellow with dishes, one by one.

If one table wasn't enough, they would pull over the next table to combine them before serving the food.

"???"

"What's going on? A competitive eating contest?"

"Is this guy here for a buffet? He ordered so much food!"

"Could it be a reincarnated starving ghost?!"

The people were talking excitedly, marveling at the scene. It was so amazing that they were so engrossed in watching Li Zhu eat and drink that they forgot all the resentment they had been waiting for.

"Hey, can you finish this?" A short-haired girl pulled out a chair opposite the pear table and sat down as if they were old friends.

"How can I not finish it? Are you underestimating me?" Li Zhu retorted subconsciously, while forking the lamb chops on the table onto her plate.

"I see you're almost full, why don't I help you finish this food?" The short-haired girl watched Li Zhu eat with gusto, her mouth practically watering.

"Who are you?" Li Zhu asked, chewing on a lamb chop. "Ouch, this meat isn't cooked through!!"

"Those are medium-rare lamb chops, still with fresh blood on them, they're so tender," the girl said irritably.

"Medium-rare lamb chops, haha, too tough. I usually just gnaw on the lamb's rear end," Li Zhu said sarcastically, moving the lamb chop to an empty plate.

"Pfft-"

"How can you be like this~" The girl was taken aback by Li Zhu's words, and couldn't stop laughing.

Chapter 112 Do you know my pain?

"Chasing after a sheep's rear end and eating it, that's an exaggeration!" The short-haired girl clutched her stomach, tears welling up in her eyes as she laughed.

She was truly amused by this guy, and despite the surprised looks from those around her, she laughed so hard she almost fell over.

"Is that an exaggeration? How can you eat meat that's three-layered cooked? It'll just taste like gamey meat and blood." Li Zhu picked up a clean tissue, wiped her mouth, and looked at the pretty girl in front of her.

He particularly disliked eating anything with blood in it, especially undercooked meat, which he found disgusting.

"That's true. I don't really like this kind of thing either. I prefer sweets."

The girl sitting opposite looked at the lamb chop that Li Zhu had moved aside with a slight disdain, expressing her agreement. She then looked at the plate of black and white pudding with great longing, her tone seemingly hinting at something to Li Zhu.

"You still haven't told me your name?" Li Zhu looked at the face and felt it was familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was.

The short-haired girl was naturally very beautiful. Although she wasn't as stunning as Hinata Kotone, her appearance was even comparable to Hanayama-in Kyoko.

The girl had shoulder-length, deep purple hair, a delicate face, and clear blue eyes that were pure and without any impurities. Two strands of her soft hair were simply pulled up and tied behind her head with a pink ribbon.

She was wearing the Ouran High School uniform, with a white shirt underneath, a blue bow at the collar, and a very fitted black blazer over it. She wore a red and white plaid skirt, which perfectly showed off her shapely figure.

“Kimizuki Akane, second-year high school student, music club president. You probably don’t know me, but I do know you, Li Zhu, junior.” Akane’s eyes narrowed with a smile, like a crescent moon hanging high in the sky. Looking at Li Zhu’s bewildered expression, a subtle smile of satisfaction appeared on her lips.

At first glance, this girl seems like a harmless, bouncy rabbit, but upon closer inspection, you'll find that her gaze towards sweets resembles that of a greedy wolf, and her words are all a facade.

"I remember now, when the club was recruiting new members, I saw you sitting in the crowd playing the piano?" Li Zhu looked at her a few more times, and asked somewhat uncertainly.

"Oh, right, it seems so. You've seen me play the piano? Do you remember me?" Upon hearing this, Yueqian's expression turned surprised, and her rosy lips formed an "O" shape.

Li Zhu nodded, a look of suspicion flashing across her face.

Is this really the girl who played the piano? She doesn't seem like it.

After all, when that girl was playing, her movements were dignified and elegant, and her expression was focused and enthusiastic. It was hard to imagine that she was the smiling and lovely girl in front of us.

She was only slightly surprised, then leaned forward slightly, beckoned with her finger, lowered her voice, and asked mysteriously, "What do you think of my playing? Did it sound good?"

Before Li Zhu could answer, she moved even closer, their heads almost touching.

"How about this, is this enough as payment for this plate of pudding?"

"???" His eyes widened, his little head filled with great confusion.

"Hey, this is a public place, don't do this suddenly!"

Li Zhu realized what he had seen and leaned back abruptly, looking somewhat flustered.

He'd been so foolish as to lean in and listen, and then this guy suddenly gave him a seductive smile and quietly loosened the bow tie at his collar...

He admitted that he had seen something he shouldn't have seen, a glimpse of white, but that was all the woman's doing, trying to seduce him, a gentleman.

"Isn't that enough? I can invite you to my concert during spring break." She subtly adjusted her collar, her gaze towards Li Zhu carrying a hint of slyness, as if her previous actions were merely an illusion.

Okay, he put away his previous assessment. It seemed that this senior, Mizuki Akane, was not a wolf, but more like a cunning fox.

Her dignified side when playing the piano, her love for sweets in restaurants, her quirky and mischievous side—which one is she?

He couldn't tell which side was the real her.

"Never mind, you can have the pudding." Li Zhu didn't want to argue with her any further. Anyway, there was still plenty of food on the table, so she could eat it if she wanted.

Moreover, it was Kujo who funded it, not Riju.

"Yay!"

She looked at the pudding, her pupils seemingly turning into the shape of hearts. She clasped her hands together, placed them on her face, and then quickly pulled the pudding in front of her to enjoy it.

With each bite, she let out a soft, enigmatic exclamation: "This flavor of pudding is so delicious!"

Li Zhu ignored her and leisurely enjoyed his meal. He didn't really like sweets, and he had originally planned to pack up the puddings and other dishes to take home for his mother, but then a music department head suddenly appeared...

'Never mind, let's order some more to go later. We can leave what's already on the table for her.'

The two had different preferences, so they kept to themselves at the table.

What Li Zhu didn't know was that everyone around her was already stunned by this scene. After all, the title of the music club president and piano goddess was quite prestigious, but she was actually having dinner with Hinata Kotone's rumored boyfriend, the disciplinary committee member?!

Is he playing both sides?

Akane Mizuki is a well-known figure in Ouran High School Host Club. If Chiyuki Nagawa is an all-rounder, then Akane Mizuki is a master who specializes in the piano.

She is the only woman who became a piano master before she was eighteen!

Although it sounds far-fetched, her piano skills are indeed good enough to hold a solo recital.

If Li Zhu knew about this setting, she would definitely complain, "It really is a virtual world. A piano master who is not even eighteen years old is too magical. Could it be that he has some kind of piano system?!"

Yet this beautiful girl, who is completely devoted to the piano and pays no attention to the outside world, reveals such a side of herself when facing Li Zhu.

Just like a few days ago, the scene of Riki and Hinata having lunch together gave people a great sense of surprise.

It is said that he previously had a very beautiful girlfriend, who was the daughter of the Sakurai family.

Faced with a host of mysteries, they had no choice but to refocus their attention on the handsome young man who was chewing on his steak. Who was he that could attract so many beautiful and wealthy girls to his side?

Li Zhu: That's a good question. I'd like to know who I am too. Those women keep coming to me, one after another. Just by standing still, they'd come to me...

So, do you know about the protagonist's halo in dating sims? Do you know my pain?

You're a dating sim designer! Take this Rising Dragon Strike from Mount Lu!

……

Not long after.

"Burp~, I'm full."

In the otherwise quiet restaurant, someone suddenly burped. Everyone turned to look, and it turned out to be Li Zhu.

Everyone smiled knowingly and ignored it.

It's something we're used to seeing.

"Pfft, you're really something else. Don't you know it's impolite to burp in a restaurant?" Seeing that Li Zhu had finished eating, and that Yue Qian had also stopped, wiped her mouth clean, and chuckled.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Li Zhu remained calm and composed, showing no sign of apology.
