A few customers sat scattered around the breakfast shop. The sun at a little past nine was warm without being glaring, and its light felt pleasant on the skin.
Yan Wen pushed open the shop door. "Five servings of crab meat congee, and five poached eggs."
The five of them found an empty table and sat down, chatting as they waited.
Every one of them was exceptionally good-looking. Together, they made such an attractive sight that the other customers quietly took out their phones to snap photos.
Two girls leaned together to gossip in hushed voices.
"Isn't the one in the white shirt Mu Xu Ye, the Mu Family's eldest son?"
"It is! I didn't expect him to be even more handsome in person!"
"Is that sweet-looking younger guy their friend?"
"Probably? But the guy beside him is even more handsome!"
"Yes, yes! I was just going to say that. Have you noticed how much he dotes on the younger guy?"
"I have. I love that contrast. I wonder if they're really together."
"Who cares if it's real? Just ship them."
Tang Yun propped his chin on one hand, glanced at the two girls, and asked, "Uncle, when are you taking A Yan home to meet the family?"
Mo Chengzhou answered, "We're going back on the first of next month, for the National Day holiday."
"School will be on break then too, so I can go back with you."
Qi Shu Yu asked curiously, "Xiao Yun, you know about the two of them?"
Tang Yun nodded. "Yeah, I found out yesterday."
Mu Xu Ye raised an eyebrow. "You move fast, Mr. Mo."
Tang Yun waved a hand. "No, my uncle wasn't planning to tell me yet. I accidentally walked in on them... Hehe, that's how I found out."
