Lunatic 3.0 Is Here

Six in the evening.

Zhu Yu happily got off work, sipping the milk tea he had gotten for free.

Zhu Yu drove while drinking his milk tea, heading to the Western restaurant he had booked the night before.

I'm someone who can eat out every day now!

Zhu Yu parked his car and walked toward the reception desk. Before he even reached it, he heard a commotion.

"I only need one seat. Name your price, and I'll pay double."

"I'm terribly sorry, sir, but our restaurant only has one seat left, and it has already been reserved by another customer," the staff member patiently replied.

"Call him and tell him I'll pay double. Triple, even." A young man dressed in a black trench coat waved his hand dismissively.

The staff member was at her wit's end. Then she spotted Zhu Yu walking over, and her eyes lit up. The savior had finally arrived.

"Mr. Fu, this is Mr. Zhu, the customer who reserved the table. If you have any requests, you can discuss them directly with Mr. Zhu. We have no authority to make that decision." The staff member briefly introduced the two of them.

Fu Boyan glanced at the short little Zhu Yu in front of him. This tiny guy?

Zhu Yu looked at yet another edgy teenage chuunibyo and felt his heart tremble. This world really was beyond saving.

"Hey, you booked a table today. Give it to me, and I'll pay you double." Fu Boyan looked down at Zhu Yu.

Zhu Yu had not been angry at first, but the way Fu Boyan looked down at him from the corner of his eyes made the flames in his chest surge higher and higher, nearly bursting out.

"I'm very sorry, but I don't need that."

Fu Boyan had never imagined he would be rejected. He had merely been abroad for three years. Had his recognition dropped that much?

"Do you know who I am?"

"Who cares who you are? Even if you were the Emperor himself, I still wouldn't give it to you." Zhu Yu rolled his eyes. This guy was not only edgy—he had a serious case of chuunibyo syndrome.

Fu Boyan clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and stared at Zhu Yu for a long time before finally compromising.

"I'll pay for this meal. At least let me share the table with you?"

Zhu Yu turned the idea over in his mind when he heard that. It was a guaranteed profit with no downside.

He could still eat, and he would not have to pay.

"Fine, then." Zhu Yu agreed cheerfully.

Seeing that the two had reached an agreement, the staff member finally breathed a sigh of relief inwardly. She had only just recognized this man.

Wasn't he the young master of the Fu Family who had often appeared online three years ago? She remembered that his last public post had announced that he was going abroad. So he was back now?

Led by the staff member, Zhu Yu and Fu Boyan arrived at their table.

Zhu Yu ordered several signature dishes.

Fu Boyan ordered only a glass of lemon water and a steak.

Not until everything they had ordered was served

did Zhu Yu look at the mountain of food in front of him, then at the glass of water and steak across from him, and feel a little embarrassed.

"Why don't you try some too?" Zhu Yu pushed the food in front of him toward Fu Boyan.

Fu Boyan shook his head and moved back with his steak and lemon water, his face full of disgust.

The moment Zhu Yu saw that expression, his embarrassment vanished. Hah. I haven't even started disliking you, and you're disgusted by me?

Zhu Yu turned his grief and indignation into appetite and ordered several more desserts. You dared to look down on me? I'll let you experience the power of my appetite.

As Fu Boyan ate the steak in front of him, an air of loneliness suddenly radiated from him, followed by a burst of anger.

Zhu Yu stared at him in bewilderment. Was this man suffering from split personalities? Damn it, had he just talked back to him? Was he going to assassinate him later?

The more Zhu Yu thought about it, the more terrified he became.

Just as Zhu Yu was about to lose control of his wild imagination, a tranquil piano melody suddenly drifted into his ears.

Zhu Yu could not help looking toward the platform in the middle of the restaurant. A long-haired young man wearing a mask adorned with bird feathers sat at the piano, his slender fingers dancing over the keys.

Fu Boyan looked over as well. For an instant, his expression went blank; the next instant, it turned angry.

Zhu Yu was not someone who made things hard for himself. Unable to endure his curiosity any longer, he asked directly.

"Do you know that guy?"

"No."

"But it feels like you know him, and even hate him a little. Did he break your heart or something? Are you still in love with him?"

Only then did Fu Boyan look at Zhu Yu. "You investigated me? So you were pretending not to know me at the entrance. I knew it. With my fame, how could no one recognize me after only three years?"

A long black line crossed Zhu Yu's forehead.

"No, man, is there anything about you worth knowing? This is clearly the first time we've met. Are you crazy? Why would I investigate you the first time we meet? Who do you think you are?"

"With the way you were looking at him, you could barely hide your murderous intent, okay?"

Veins bulged on Fu Boyan's forehead. "I-I-I'm Fu Boyan. Go look me up online and see who I am!"

Zhu Yu rolled his eyes. Who cares who you are? Fu, Fu, Fu Boyan!!!

Zhu Yu jolted in fright, his pupils widening. Lunatic Number Three, Fu Boyan???

What kind of rotten luck did he have? How long had it been? He had already run into all three of them. The rich heirs' circle really was tiny.

Zhu Yu reached out, intending to grab a grape from the fruit platter beside him to calm himself down.

Before he could touch it, though, his hand brushed against something soft and chubby.

Zhu Yu looked to the side in confusion and saw two plump little children standing there hand in hand.

So cute!!!

Zhu Yu was secretly a sucker for cute things. Whether it was fluffy little animals or adorable children, he had absolutely no resistance.

"Hello, Uncle. May my sister and I have a grape?" Ji Jiujiu asked shyly.

Ji Niuniu shyly hid behind her brother, though she still could not resist poking her head out for a furtive look.

"Of course! Eat as much as you want. Go ahead, help yourselves." Zhu Yu pushed the platter toward the two little ones.

"Where are your parents? Did you tell them before you came out? Do you want Uncle to take you back?" Zhu Yu's voice unconsciously became sweet and gentle.

Fu Boyan watched Zhu Yu's two-faced act speechlessly. Was this guy suffering from split personalities too?

Fu Boyan did not like children. After one glance, he turned back around.

"Our daddy is playing the piano on the stage." Ji Jiujiu peeled a grape for Ji Niuniu, and after she finished eating it, he did not forget to use a tissue to wipe her mouth.

Zhu Yu turned toward the stage again. So it was that young man playing the piano. He looked quite young. Zhu Yu had not expected such a young man to already have two adorable little angels.

"What about your mommy?" Zhu Yu asked curiously. Usually, if the father was working, the children's mother or another family member should be nearby, right?

"Uncle, we don't have a mommy. We only have Daddy and Father. But Daddy said our Father went to heaven and became a shiny little star, watching over us every night." Having gotten some fruit, Ji Niuniu had clearly become much bolder.

"That's not true, Sister. I overheard Daddy saying that our Father is still alive. His name is Fu Boyan."

Huh???

Huh???

Zhu Yu and Fu Boyan stared with four eyes and six huge question marks. What were these kids talking about?
