Chapter 424: Inexplicably Booked Out

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When they arrived at Furong Restaurant, Qin Muyan confidently informed the proprietor, “1’11 reserve all the private wings upstairs.”

The proprietor, wearing a smile, replied, “Sir, what a coincidence. All the private wings have already been booked today. If you don’t mind, the private seats on the second floor are still available.”

Qin Muyan promptly placed two gold ingots on the table. “Kindly ask the other customer to dine elsewhere.”

Eager at the sight of the gold, the proprietor hesitated to extend his hand. “Sir, this customer… We can’t afford to offend them. Perhaps you could consider the private seats?”

Qin Muyan was furious. He had never treated a girl to a meal before, and he didn’t expect that he couldn’t even book a wing today.

Su Yingxue intervened, “It doesn’t matter where we eat. Your Highness, there’s no need for such formality. A private seat by the window is available, and you can enjoy the outside scenery. Let’s go there.”

She took the lead, sitting down, and Qin Muyan naturally followed suit.

With an apologetic expression, Qin Muyan said, “Unfortunately, today isn’t ideal. Tomorrow, 1’11 reserve the entire Furong Restaurant and treat you to a full day.”

“No need. After tonight’s meal, I won’t owe Your Highness anything.”

Su Yingxue poured herself a cup of tea, holding it to warm her hands.

“Are you thinking about your sweetheart?” Qin Muyan inquired as he observed her gazing out the window. “Why did he break the appointment?”

Su Yingxue rolled her eyes, saying, “I’m pondering who reserved the entire Furong Restaurant today. Your Highness might not be aware, but in the past, it was against the rules to book the entire restaurant. There are dignitaries here daily, and booking the entire place would lead to trouble. Furong Restaurant established a rule against it.”

Not only were all the private rooms booked today, but even the proprietor seemed anxious. It indicated that the person who booked the place was extraordinary.

“If you’re curious, I’ll accompany you to take a look.” Qin Muyan proposed after a sip of wine, offering a relaxed smile.

“Is Your Highness just as unrestrained in the Great Wei Dynasty?” Su Yingxue was curious. In this person’s eyes, it seemed like there was nothing he couldn’t do.

Qin Muyan poured another glass of wine. “In life, it should be this way. Do what you want. Too many rules and etiquette feel like being locked in a cage. I’ve despised rules since 1 was young, never adhered to conventions, and followed my heart. Just as 1 like Miss Su, I propose to you.”

The conversation took an unexpected turn. Su Yingxue had wanted to express her admiration for his carefree attitude.

Now, she choked on her tea, coughing twice. “Life requires some rules. Your Highness, please refrain from mentioning marriage.”

“If you don’t like it, 1 won’t bring it up. After the court session, I’ll go to your house for a proposal.”

Qin Muyan finished a pot of wine. His eyebrows were full of grandeur. He did not like to be restrained. He was determined to marry the person he liked back in the Great Wei Dynasty.

Su Yingxue held her forehead, knowing she had made a mistake. She shouldn’t have provoked a headstrong individual.

“This stubbornness…”

“Forget it. Your Highness, let’s enjoy a good meal first!”

She digested slowly, fearing she would choke sooner or later if Qin Muyan continued.

She ordered a table full of dishes, and in the company of someone like Qin Muyan, who didn’t adhere to formalities, the atmosphere was relaxed; they enjoyed their meal wholeheartedly.

Qin Muyan extended a warm invitation for her to join in drinking, and she couldn’t resist indulging in a few glasses of wine.

However, compared to Qin Muyan, their alcohol tolerance was like the difference between a pond and an ocean..
