The next day, Mejiro Sanfeng came to the restaurant again.
The restaurant was as usual; there were customers, but due to the time, it didn't seem like many.
Seeing this, Mejiro Sanfeng walked to the bar in front of Tokai and sat down, then spoke: "Shopkeeper Yayoi?"
A voice different from the usual finally caught Tokai's attention.
She turned her head to look at the other person: "Oh, it's you. I didn't even notice."
Saying this, Tokai walked to Mejiro Sanfeng: "What would you like to eat?"
Tokai's question made Mejiro Sanfeng silent for a second, then she spoke: "Do you have any recommendations?"
"Dessert?"
"That might not be bad, but for today, a change might be better ~"
Hearing these slightly different words from the usual, Tokai turned her head to look at Mejiro Sanfeng.
Staring at Mejiro Sanfeng for a few seconds, Tokai finally spoke: "Did you go to see that person?"
"Yes."
"I see..."
Tokai couldn't quite understand Mejiro Sanfeng's feelings.
After all, compared to Mejiro Sanfeng, Tokai could be said to not know much about the other person.
So she didn't know what Mejiro Sanfeng encountered there.
And after hearing Tokai's words...
Mejiro Sanfeng was silent for a second, then shifted her gaze elsewhere: "So, do you have any recommendations?"
"About that..." Tokai thought for a few seconds, then spoke: "Yes, but you'll have to wait a bit, because it's not a particularly professional Western restaurant, so you'll have to wait a bit. Is that okay?"
"Okay, that's fine."
Seeing Mejiro Sanfeng say this, Tokai simply pulled out a notepad and a pen from a corner of the kitchen, then started writing on it.
Soon, Tokai tore off the sticky note.
"Sister Roman, could you please help buy the items on this list? Don't worry about the quality."
Tokai Roman glanced at Tokai, then turned to look at Mejiro Sanfeng.
After looking at the two of them, Tokai Roman nodded: "Okay."
With that, Tokai Roman took off her apron and left the small shop directly.
After Tokai Roman left the small shop, Tokai returned to Mejiro Sanfeng's front: "What did she say?"
"Are you that curious, boss?"
Looking at Tokai coming over to ask, Mejiro Sanfeng just stared helplessly at Tokai: "Why do I feel like you're more concerned than I am?"
"Concern isn't quite the word."
Saying this, Tokai just looked at the other person: "It's just that there are still some unresolved issues with her, so..."
At this, Tokai showed a slight smile: "So I need to understand."
Seeing Tokai say this, Mejiro Sanfeng tilted her head: "There are still unresolved issues? Let me ask first, it wouldn't be a marriage issue, would it?"
Mejiro Sanfeng's words immediately carried a hint of wariness.
Clearly, from this encounter with Rudolph...
Mejiro Sanfeng understood Tokai's importance in Rudolph's heart, so it was normal for Mejiro Sanfeng to look at Tokai this way after realizing this.
A slight wariness didn't bother Tokai too much.
After all, she also knew the relationship between Mejiro Sanfeng and Rudolph.
So, it was normal for the previous words to cause ambiguity.
Therefore, Tokai continued: "It's just some trivial matters that aren't important, and it has nothing to do with marriage ~"
Saying this, Tokai shifted her gaze to the other person: "So, can you relax now?"
Tokai's words made Mejiro Sanfeng calm down a bit.
Then, she thought of another question: "Don't you care?"
"Huh? What should I care about?"
"About that person."
Mejiro Sanfeng then said, "You have a child…"
Mid-sentence, Mejiro Sanfeng seemed to realize something, and she immediately stopped, then looked around.
After looking around and realizing that no one was paying attention to her and Tokai's conversation, Mejiro Sanfeng skipped the word and continued, "Aren't you going to ask her about this?"
"Ask what?"
"Why should I ask?"
Tokai sighed, "Some things can't be solved by asking or talking. Of course, they can't be solved by other means either, unless…"
At this point, a fleeting expression crossed Tokai's face.
It was an expression Mejiro Sanfeng couldn't understand.
Then, silence fell between the two again.
After the silence, Mejiro Sanfeng spoke again, "Shopkeeper Yayoi, you have a very good mindset~"
"If I didn't have the ability to self-regulate, I would have been finished long ago."
Tokai sighed and then continued, "Aren't you quite impressive yourself?"
"Huh?"
"You were injured, weren't you?"
Tokai said, her gaze fixed on Mejiro Sanfeng, and then she continued, "What was your mindset like then?"
Tokai's words made Mejiro Sanfeng pause for a second, then she turned her head, "So that's how it is."
Seeing that Mejiro Sanfeng had understood, Tokai didn't say much; she just silently began to prepare the cooking utensils she would need next.
And seeing Tokai's attitude, Mejiro Sanfeng didn't say much either.
She just picked up the menu from the corner of the bar and started reading it.
As before, the menu mainly featured Japanese dishes, followed by Western dishes. As for the chinese food at the end, it was simply described as "currently under development."
And after seeing the chinese food, Mejiro Sanfeng remembered the batch of Chinese exchange students.
Thinking of this, Mejiro Sanfeng was silent for a few seconds, then looked at Tokai, "Is this chinese food for the exchange students?"
"Yes, Tracen Academy probably doesn't specially provide chinese food."
Tokai said, looking at Mejiro Sanfeng, "So it's good to make a little. I just don't know if they have the spending power."
Seeing Tokai say this, Mejiro Sanfeng didn't say much. She was silent for a few seconds, then shifted her gaze in another direction, "Shopkeeper Yayoi, as a former three-star French chef, haven't you considered doing something else?"
"Not enough profit. But if my restaurant from L'Ambroisie comes over in the future, maybe they'll have a demand."
"I see. Well, if you need help then, you can call me. If I don't make any investments, I always feel it's quite risky."
"Then I'll leave it to you."
…Soon after, Tokai Roman returned to the restaurant with the items Tokai wanted to buy.
However, when she saw Tokai and Mejiro Sanfeng chatting happily, she just rubbed her eyes, unsure if what she saw was real.
