A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World - Chapter 1900

Chapter 1900: I Don’t Want To Eat Anything

Georgina heard the familiar voice, and subconsciously raised her head, and greeted Harrison with a smile.

Inwardly, she was very against sharing the table with strangers, and could not accept sitting right in front of a man, as that meant that she had to endure the gazes of the other party. That made her feel very uncomfortable.

However, the rules of the restaurant dictated that the customers had to accept sharing a table, so she had no right to say no.

Or it might also be because this fat man did not look so detestable. He had a warm and friendly smile hanging on his plump face. Georgina hesitated for a while before nodding.

“Thank you.” Harrison smiled and drew the chair back to take a seat. After that, he nodded at Kenneth in appreciation.

Kenneth looked at Harrison, and nodded back, but had mixed feelings.

He was always worried that Georgina would be hurt ever since she was young. Therefore, he did not like letting her interact with males too early. However, after she closed herself off, he hoped that someone could open up her heart again, even if it was making her say a few more words. At least she would not be alone.

He could feel the kindness of this plump young man, and he could not reject him, because he really wasn’t capable of making Georgina emerge from her withdrawal.

“Hi, I’m Harrison. May I know your name?” Harrison sat down, and started talking to Georgina.

Georgina looked at him. His eyes were shining bright like a burning torch, and that made her cheeks feel hot. She instinctively looked away, and after a moment of silence, she replied softly, “Georgina.”

“Georgina…” Harrison recited once. Smiling, he said, “A very beautiful name.”

Georgina could not help but look at him again. She had never heard anyone say that about her name so gently.

“Are you not going to take a look at the menu? Mamy Restaurant has the most interesting menu in the whole Chaos City. It’s just like a delicate work of art.” Harrison pushed the menu beside him to Georgina.

Georgina looked at Harrison, and then at the menu beside her hands.

Ever since she was humiliated by that man she once thought was the sun in her life two years ago, she started hating all food and anything related to food.

She hated restaurants, hated kitchens, and hated menus.

However, Harrison’s gaze made it difficult for her to reject. Or perhaps this exquisite menu did have a sort of curious power that made her reach out for it.

Its soft cowhide cover was very soft, and the texture was even better than that of all her bags. The design was simple yet classy, and that made the menu look very exquisite.

“The restaurant’s rules are at the back of the menu,” Harrison reminded her.

Georgina flipped the Menu to the back, and saw a row of small writings, listing down the rules of Mamy Restaurant.

There were rules about lining up, sharing tables, dining etiquette, and mutual respect between service staff and customers.

They were detailed, yet not cumbersome. Although they were rules, each one of them had a human touch to it.

They were not forceful requests from the restaurant owner. These rules were put together to guarantee a comfortable dining experience for the customers.

She finally understood why she felt that this restaurant was a little different the moment she stepped in. The distance between tables was just nice, and customers were harmonious and happy to share tables. Chatter was hushed, and no one shouted at the service staff. This made one feel very at ease.

Georgina could not help but think to herself, It is an interesting restaurant.

However, she was quickly stunned. The idea of being interesting had never surfaced in her mind for a very long time, and what was more unbelievable was that it was actually her thoughts on a restaurant.

“Before ordering, take a look at the menu. Mamy Restaurant’s menu is the most exquisite one I have ever seen,” Harrison encouraged.

Georgina opened the menu, and her eyes lit up.

This was not a menu from a restaurant that just listed countless names of dishes.

This menu actually categorized the dishes into the breakfast menu, stir-fried menu, barbecue menu, side dishes… and so on, which made it very easy for an individual to find a dish based on personal preference.

The most unique part was that each dish had its own photograph. The pictures of the dishes were brightly colored, as though actual dishes were on the menu.

Even for someone who detested food like Georgina, the photographs of the delicious-looking food with vibrant colors made her swallow her saliva.

This reaction came from her muscle memory. It showed that these pictures started to spark off some natural reactions in her body.

That’s the way. Harrison’s eyes lit up when she saw the mild reaction of Georgina swallowing her saliva.

“The favorite food of young ladies would be the limited tofu pudding. The dish has apparent beautifying effects. Look at me, I’ve only had it once in a while, but I’ve become much fairer,” Harrison advised, and even reached his fair and plump hand out to show her as evidence.

Becoming beautiful was irresistible to all ladies.

Georgina glanced at Harrison’s hand. It was indeed much fairer than hers. It was plump, and looked rather cute. She also used to have a plump little hand like that. How did she not find that cute about herself back then?

However, she was starting to gain interest in the tofu pudding that Harrison mentioned. When she was lining up just now, the most common dish name she heard was tofu pudding. What kind of miraculous dish did it have to be that it could make everyone vie for it?

Very quickly, she found the tofu pudding in the side dishes menu.

The fair and soft tofu pudding sat in a porcelain bowl. A kind of golden-red syrup was drizzled over it, and that was the sweet tofu pudding. There was another one with different ingredients scattered over and drizzled with some sauce, called the savory tofu pudding. They appeared to be a very exquisite dessert, and looked very cute.

“If you don’t like sweet things, you can try the savory tofu pudding. It’s refreshing and delectable with zero sugar. After having it, you would become even more beautiful, but that would not make you fat. It’s really the holy beauty product,” Harrison recommended with a smile.

“Mm-hm. I can attest to that. I didn’t sleep well last night, and have to meet an important client in the afternoon. Therefore, I came specially to have the tofu pudding at Mamy Restaurant this morning so that I can look my best immediately. This is the mysterious power of the tofu pudding,” the young lady sitting at the same table told Georgina with a smile as she put down the mirror in her hand.

Kenneth sat up straight, and looked at Georgina with anticipation, his fists clenched tightly under the table.

Georgina looked at the two strangers, and then at the menu in front of her. She pressed her lips together, and thought for a while before reaching out to close the menu. She shook her head, and lowered her gaze as she said, “I don’t want to eat anything.”

It was a very obvious rejection. She lowered her head, and sealed herself up like a stubborn stone.

She hated food, and even hated herself, who hated food, even more.

However, she could not nod. The only thing she was in control of was… rejection.
