Chapter 288 Difficult to handle

The portions of the dishes are not large, giving off a delicate, small, and never-filling feeling.

But the advantage is that the taste is not too big and the appearance is excellent. It is a great place to take photos, check in, and post to WeChat Moments.

It's worth the price.

Morax seemed to have no appetite, or perhaps he was not focused on eating. He only tasted a little of each dish and soon put down his chopsticks.

Then, under Yuan Zhuoyue's gaze, he quickly began to answer the questions that Yuan Zhuoyue had asked before the meal.

I started reviewing the dishes one by one.

The pig's trotters are soft and tasty, fragrant but not greasy, and the soup is rich. Shaobai is salty and sweet, soft and delicious...

The successive reviews were full of praise, and every dish was praised from the perspective of color, aroma, taste, and every other aspect.

There seemed to be no flaws at all, as if everything in front of him was delicious.

He spoke eloquently and fluently. If an ordinary person heard what he said, they would only think it was exaggerated, too flashy and false.

But coupled with Morax's gentle and peaceful tone and unhurried narration, it is inexplicably convincing, as if he is saying some famous saying.

Combined with the previous stereotyped question-and-answer pattern between her and Morax.

Facing such a situation now, Yuan Zhuoyue felt like he was an NPC who issued tasks, and Morax was a player of this game, who was diligently completing the difficult tasks issued by the difficult NPC.

Yuan Zhuoyue didn't really want to know what Morax thought of these dishes.

She just wanted Morax to talk more, to see if he would accidentally reveal some information.

But after listening to these comments, which were actually very versatile and could be applied to any dish, Yuan Zhuoyue knew that Morax was still on guard against her.

As expected, unlike the small golden cube that looks like a colander, Morax is really a piece of stubborn stone that cannot be pried open.

But even so, Yuan Zhuoyue had no way to deal with Morax who refused to speak. She didn't want to be an enemy of Morax.

It was just that this state of ignorance made her feel a little uneasy. She instinctively wanted to understand the "truth", to peel away the fog before her eyes and calm her anxious heart.

Just looking at Morax, from the time he appeared until now, he had never treated her as a strong and arrogant protector.

Although he was indeed a little overly persistent in some aspects, it was not a big deal. It could be said that he was following her wishes in everything and communicating with her on an equal footing.

There is no way Yuan Zhuoyue would choose to make things too ugly with Morax.

Even the knowledge that Morax carefully taught was extremely precious and hard-to-obtain treasure for Yuan Zhuoyue now.

The attitude revealed by Morax was very clear. He did not want her to become a vassal or a weakling to be protected, but hoped that she could take up arms and control her own power.

Become a person who can control your own destiny instead of being at the mercy of others.

Yuan Zhuoyue has never been an ungrateful person. She can feel the kindness that Morax released from these "good deeds".

It is precisely because of this that Yuan Zhuoyue will try hard to restrain his sharp doubts about Morax, which arise from unknown reasons.

When you are able to control yourself, try to get along with Morax in a gentle and friendly manner.

Even though some of Morax's behavior did make her feel a little presumptuous, Yuan Zhuoyue didn't mind playing dumb to curb the slight discomfort and displeasure.

But now, Yuan Zhuoyue raised her eyes and looked at Morax who was sitting opposite her, smiling at her with a gentle look between his brows.

I just find it very difficult.

She played dumb in front of Morax, and Morax was also playing dumb in front of her. They were both just acting out what was going on, knowing full well that neither Morax nor he had completely torn apart the false illusion of peace.
