After a long time, Nora finally finished the candied haws in his mouth.
Ron bought two glasses of juice and handed one to Nora.
"Thank you, store manager." Nora stopped being pretentious at this moment and obediently took it and took a sip.
"You are quite familiar with this place, right? Is there any place where I can have a meal?" Ron looked around and found that there were quite a lot of things to eat, but he didn't know what would taste better.
Nora "Yeah~" thought for a while, and then his eyes lit up. "There is a ramen restaurant in front, and their noodles are delicious!"
"Then let's go."
The two of them walked slowly towards the front amid the crowd.
Ron reached out and grabbed Nora's wrist, worried that she would get lost.
As a result, Nora was startled and subconsciously broke away from Ron's hand.
Ron then realized that what he was doing was a bit inappropriate, so he said, "It's a bit crowded here, hold on to me so I don't get lost."
Nora blushed and did not grab Ron's hand. He just gently grabbed the hem of Ron's clothes and followed Ron.
There seems to be a variety of places to eat around here, and it's very lively with people coming and going during dinner.
Because the price is cheap, many civilians like to come here to have dinner.
Nora followed Ron through the crowd, staring blankly at the store manager's back.
In fact, she herself used to squeeze in and out of such crowded crowds.
I didn't think it was anything at that time.
But being taken away by the store manager and not having to rub shoulders with other people gave her an inexplicable sense of peace of mind.
Soon, the two came to the ramen restaurant Nora mentioned.
In fact, it is just a fly restaurant. The store is very small, and the front is large enough for four people to stand side by side.
At this time, the store was very busy and crowded, but fortunately there were still a few empty seats.
Nora led Ron into the store. Just as he was about to sit down on the chair, he saw the oil stains on the chair surface and tabletop, and suddenly became panicked.
After Ron teased her with candied haws, Nora suddenly forgot the true identity of Ron.
But now that I think about it, the store manager is Seventh Prince from the Human Empire!
How could you be willing to eat in a place like this?
Nora immediately regretted it, but she couldn't say anything at this time. She just leaned down and wiped the chair Ron was going to sit on with her sleeves.
Ron from behind laughed and stepped forward, grabbed Nora's hand and pulled her up, then he used his feet to hook out the chair very familiarly and sat on it, as if he was someone who often comes to this kind of place to eat.
"Sit down, sit down, I don't mind this." Ron pressed Nora's shoulders to ask her to sit down, and then shouted towards the kitchen, "Boss, please bring two bowls of ramen!"
"Okay!"
Nora looked at his store manager with his mouth wide open, feeling a bit strange.
Store manager... your style doesn't match your personality... Where has your usual elegant style when eating gone?
Ron glanced at Nora and said with a smile, "What? You don't think I will come to this kind of place?"
"Well..." Nora nodded subconsciously, then shook his head quickly, "No... I didn't mean that..."
"Don't think so much, I'm not really a pampered aristocratic grandpa." Ron propped his right elbow on the table and rested his chin on his palm, looking casual, "Have you ever seen any nobleman cook by himself?"
After hearing what the store manager said, Nora realized this problem.
That's right... the store manager actually cooks the food himself...
She had never thought about it deeply before.
The main reason was that the store manager had orc blood, which made Nora think that the store manager was actually a young man who worked hard to open a store by himself.
Even though he later learned the true identity of the store manager, Nora never had any feelings about it because his usual style was completely different from the imagined aristocrat.
Just like just now, Nora didn't recall the noble status of the store manager Seventh Prince until he entered the store and saw the greasy tabletop. Normally, he didn't have this awareness at all.
"Our relationship now is that of a store manager and an employee. I like the way we get along with each other very much. You don't need to take my status as a prince to heart." Ron said casually.
He didn't expect Nora to adapt immediately. In short, the words were left here and it was up to Nora to accept it.
The ramen was served quickly.
When the boss served the ramen, he looked at Nora a few times, his eyes suspicious.
"Nora?"
"Eh? Boss, do you still recognize me?" Nora was a little surprised.
"Haha, I've already seen that you are a girl, so I have an impression. I didn't expect that your face would look so beautiful after you wash it off." The boss confirmed with a smile that he had recognized the person correctly.
Nora blushes.
The boss glanced at Ron next to Nora. He was dressed luxuriously, had a calm demeanor, and his aura was incompatible with this fly restaurant.
But this kind of person is willing to eat ramen with Nora.
"I won't disturb you, just eat slowly."
Nora nodded happily.
"Do you know me?" Ron glanced at her.
"I used to come here occasionally to dig through the trash cans..." Nora said halfway, looking at Ron sheepishly, "I'm sorry, manager... I won't talk about this during dinner."
Ron After listening to the first half of the sentence, he roughly guessed the details, so he didn't ask any more questions and lowered his head to eat ramen, "Eat it, I have to go shopping after eating."
Nora I used to come here, but instead of eating ramen in the store, I ate some cold soup base and a few noodles in the trash can behind the store.
The boss here is kind-hearted and occasionally burns extra fabrics and distributes them to street children.
Nora is one of them.
So Ron thinks the ramen here tastes average, but Nora said before that the noodles in this noodle shop are delicious.
After finishing a bowl of noodles, Ron stood up and planned to pay.
Nora quickly stood up and grabbed Ron.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Store manager, I'll pay." Nora said softly, but his eyes were firm, "You were the one who treated me to dinner before, so I'll treat you to dinner."
Ron looked at her with a smile, but it didn't matter. "I'll wait for you at the door."
Nora nodded, turned and walked to the kitchen door, took out six copper coins from his bag. "Boss, the money for two bowls of ramen!"
The boss reached out and took it, looked at Nora with a smile, and seemed not to say anything at first, but finally said:
"If you're with the right man, live a good life. You won't come to a place like me. He may seem like he doesn't mind, but in his heart he might not like this place."
"If a child like you can get a good place, you should cherish it, be softer, and curb the fierceness of fighting in the past."
Nora moved her lips to explain, but in the end she just nodded vigorously. "Thank you, boss."
"I'm busy right now, go ahead."
"Well, goodbye boss!"
Nora walked out of the store and blushed again when he saw the store manager.
Thinking of what the noodle shop owner said earlier, Nora felt a little embarrassed.
How could someone like the store manager be her man?
Just thinking about it makes me wonder.
"Let's go. If you want to buy something, it's time to go buy it." Ron waved to Nora.
Nora then came to his senses and jogged to keep up with the store manager.
By this time the streets were no longer as crowded as before.
But Nora still tentatively reached out his hand and gently grabbed the store manager's hem.
The store manager didn't refuse.
So nice...
Nora thought stupidly.
