After ordering the food, York Gu added, “And we want two cups of Pine nut sake, please.”
“Alright.”
The waiter nodded and took the menu and left. There were only York and Nell Su.
Nell felt a bit nervous and awkward after the embarrassing moment of not ordering dishes. She was thinking how to cover this kind of awkwardness.
While York was ordering food, Nell was busing with arranging her hair, playing with her fingers, checking her pockets. She did all she could.
Apparently, York found that Nell was nervous. He just patted her back of the hand and said, “You just come out and have dinner with me. Don’t be nervous. Your heart almost beats out. Can you tell me why you are so nervous?”
“I…”
Nell did want to tell Nell the truth, but the problem was she did not even know why she would be so nervous.
Seeing Nell mutter and mumble, York thought that she had something that she couldn’t say. So York just said, “Alright. I know. You don’t need to explain.”
Hearing this, Nell felt that York was kind of annoyed. She hurriedly said, “No, I am not. I just don’t know what I should say. Please don’t think too much.”
“I won’t.”
York just laughed and tired to comfort Nell, “It is you who think too much, okay?”
“Alright…”
Hearing this, Nell didn’t intend to say anything more.
At this moment Nell found that the York who was out of working mode was so humanized that did not the strict cold-blooded boss. Not only he had more facial expression, but also looked like an ordinary man.
Nell was shocked by her thinking. She shook her head and tried to get rid of this thought.
But this gesture was caught by Nell sitting opposite to her. York couldn’t help laughing and thinking she was cute and adorable. He stretched out his hand and touched Nell’s hair slightly.
“Uh…”
Nell didn’t have time to react. She didn’t dodge York’s fingers. But it felt like getting an electric shock. She couldn’t move an inch. She slightly opened her mouth but failed to say a word.
“What’s wrong?” York saw Nell’s strange actions, “Is that my behavior makes you uncomfortable?”
“I don’t know how to describe it. Though it feels strange, it seems that I don’t hate this feeling.”
Nell honestly said out what she thought.
All these years, Nell had been living in an environment without love. Her father barely cared about her since she was young. All he cared was work. As for her stepmother, needless to explain, she did not even care about her own daughter, not mentioned about this step-daughter.
So Nell didn’t know how to care about others. She also didn’t know how to react when she was being cared.
So far York hadn’t found out Nell’s family background. So he also didn’t know why she reacted like this. York just felt that everything was a mystery. He decided to investigate.
At the moment that they both felt awkward, the waiter came, “Here is salmon sashimi. Please enjoy it.”
“Thank you.”
York slightly nodded and thank the waiter. He forwardly took the dressing and prepare one for Nell.
Because in York’s impression, Nell’s outfit was rustic. He thought that it might also be the first time for her to come to this kind of restaurant. So being a gentleman, he must prepare for Nell.
Nell saw that York was busy at serving her, her face into hot red. She didn’t know what she should do. So, Nell just sat there and looked at York.
York put some vinegar and mustard on a small dish and put it in front of Nell, “Before you eat the sashimi, you should dip this sauce. Otherwise it would be too greasy.”
“Alright.”
Nell cleverly nodded. But she didn’t eat first. Nell wanted to wait York to take the first bite.
When they were eating, they just had few talks.
York didn’t like to talk when he was eating. So Nell didn’t say much. She just listened to York about some working requirements and memorized it in heart.
In the middle of the dinner, the sake had almost finished.
Nell’s face turned red like a roaring fire. Her delicate ears and neck were all red. There was a slight red on the white skin. It might not be clear. But it was easy to notice. York enjoyed this scene pleasantly.
The sake wasn’t that strong. But it tasted good in mouth. Normally girls liked it. But it was also easy for a girl to get drunk.
Nell almost drank up her sake. She started to feel dizzy. She couldn’t even stand firmly.
“What’s wrong?”
York saw Nell held her head and closed her eyes to rest. He knew she might be drunk. He felt kind of sorry. So he took out a bottle of pills and passed it Nell.
“I know you can’t drink much. So I prepare the pills for you in advance. Take it now. It will be good to your stomach.”
Nell didn’t answer. York knew that he was right.
Nell nodded. She took out one pill and took it with water.
After resting for a while, Nell felt better. She laughed and said, “Now I feel better. Thank you for taking care of me so much.”
