Chapter 464
Mina Simmons was afraid that she mightugh uncontrobly and changed the topic immediately.
“Mr. ke, let’s order now.
I’ll get the waiter.” Mina was amused and could not hide her smile when she spoke.
She immediately pressed the service.
bell.
A waiter came over with the menu.
Mina took the menu from the waiter and handed it to Preston ke.
“Mr. ke, would you like to order?” “Please go ahead,” Preston replied politely.
He could not help but ask again, “Why are you treating me to dinner, Mina?” Preston had held back on
the question for a long time.
He had thought about it but could not figure it out.
He wondered on his way here if tonight’s dinner was an excuse for Mina’s interest in him.
However, she immediately turned him.
down when he jokingly asked her to be his pretend girlfriend.
Evidently, she did not have any romantic.
interest in him.
Then why did she treat him to dinner out of the blue? Did Mina regard him as a friend? Or was she
simply too bored and wanted somepany for a meal? Preston racked his brains but could not
conclude; it drove him crazy.
“Hehehe.” Mina giggled like a fool and said apologetically, “I forced you to y the drinking gamest
time, but you got so drunk and didn’t have anything to eat.

I feel guilty about that.
Therefore, I want to treat you to a good meal to make up for it.” “Is that all?” Preston looked perplexed
as thoughts went through his head.
Mina was not interested in him after all.
“Mhmm,” Mina replied; her bright eyes.
sparkled.
“There are no other intentions?” Preston was persistent and unwilling to give up.
“None whatsoever!” Mina replied with all seriousness.
“Well then, thank you for the treat.
I’ll return the favor next time,” Preston said.
However, his heart felt a little empty.
“Sure!” Mina spoke like a foodie, “Mr. ke, believe me when I say this restaurant is extraordinary
regarding food.
We wille here again when you treat me next time.” “Okay,” Preston could not hide hisughter
when he saw Mina’s gluttonous look.
Meanwhile, Mina was pleasantly surprised that Preston was about to figure out the game she had
yed earlier.
Her eyes sparkled like stars in the sky.
“You’re about to solve it.
You’re only two rows away.
How amazing!” Preston’s mood changed when he saw Mina’s surprised look.
His disappointment earlier on dissipated.
The corners of his lips curled up, “I was lucky.
All the numbers I wanted appear.” The waiter began to serve the dishes.
Preston asked, “Do you want a drink?” Mina waved her hand vigorously.
“No, no, no, I can’t drink.” “Is it okay if I drink a little?” Preston asked.
“All right, you can drink a little: I’ll give you a lift hometer,” Mina replied readily.
“Okay then,” Preston smiled and said.
He felt that Mina did not behave as a girl should.
Preston continued to y the game and quickly figured it out.
Mina gave him a thumbs up excitedly.
“Mr. ke, you’re so awesome!” Preston felt awkward when Mina addressed him as Mr. ke.
He looked at her intently and suggested, “Why don’t we change how we address each other? You can
call me by my name, Preston.” “Hahaha, you’re right since we know each other so well.
You’re too amazing.
You know, every time I y this game, I’ll end up dead if I make a mistake.” Mina took over her cell
phone and looked at her hundreds of thousands of points with satisfaction.
The dishes were served.
Preston and Mina began to eat.
Preston poured himself a ss of wine and asked, “Aren’t you going to drink some?” Mina
contemted while looking at the bottle.
“Why not? I’ll drink a little,” she replied.
“Mhmm,” Preston smiled.
Mina handed a small wine ss to him.
Preston poured her a small ss of wine.
Mina took a sip and started chatting.
“Listen, Preston, don’t let myck of proper behavior back home fool you.
My mother would never allow me to drink when I was overseas.” Preston smiled, “It’s fine to drink a
little.
Wine promotes blood cirction; it’s good for the body.” “That’s right!” Mina’s eyes lit up.
“Wine is used as medicine in traditional medicine too.
However, it has to be real grain wine.
The blended wine found in the market wouldn’t make the cut.
Once I visited Ms.
Tuffin’s master with her.
That’s what I would call living.
They make wine every year.
Other than those in the wine cer, there’s also some peach blossom wine buried in the courtyard.”
Mina remarked, “Hmm, this wine tastes.
good.
Can you pour me another ss?” Preston smiled and poured another ss.
of wine for her.
“Mr. ke, eat more.” Mina extended her hospitality to make up for the previous asion when
Preston did not have enough to eat.
“Why are you calling me Mr. ke again?” Prestonined, looking helpless.
“Haha, it slipped my mind.
Don’t mind me.
Let’s have another drink,” Mina swirled the ss and finished the wine.
Mina started to blush after three small sses of wine.
Preston nced at her and said, “Stop drinking and have some food.” “I’m blushing, right?” Mina
covered her face with her hands and said, “I was born that way.
I blush easily when I drink.
There is a problem with my body in terms of modern medicine.
I don’t have enough aminopherase in my system.
However, ording to the folk saying, such people were regarded as good.
drinkers as they could hold their liquor.” “Don’t drink so much then,” Preston said with a smile.
“One more drink and that’s it.
Come on.” Mina handed her empty ss to Preston for more.
Preston took the ss and poured a little more wine.
As promised, Mina stopped after another small ss of wine and started eating.
She could not stop praising as she gobbled down the food.
“Joyson’s dishes are truly delicious.
I would normally avoid oily food, but the braised pork belly here is simply irresistible, not to mention the
side dishes.
I loved going to restaurants like this when I was overseas.
Sometimes a restaurant may look clean, but the food could turn out otherwise.
Not so here, though.
Everything is so delicious!” “Then eat more,” Preston served Mina another piece of pork belly.
Soon he realized that he had not used the serving utensils.
Preston looked at Mina awkwardly.
However, Mina did not seem to mind at all.
She wasted no time and ate the food while praising non-stop how scrumptious it was.
Preston was again overwhelmed with a strange feeling; his heart beat slightly faster than usual.
“Listen, I liked to watch boxing dramas.
when I was young.
My biggest dream was.
to travel the world with a few friends when I grew up.
We would wine and dine …” Mina rattled on without a care.
Prestonughed uncontrobly, “What happened then?” Mina shrugged and said, “Well, I grew up and
realized I was a woman.
Hahahahaha!” Preston’s smile widened.
“Women can also roam the world,” he teased.
“It’s not easy to find a toilet in the wild,” Mina said with a straight face.
Preston burst outughing.
She was really too cute! “Mr. ke, pour me another ss of wine.
This wine is wonderful.” Mina handed her ss to Preston.
Preston poured another ss for her without a word.
“It’s heavenly,” Mina finished it in one gulp.
She rattled, “Mr. ke, why don’t you drink too? Let’s cheers.” “Mr. ke, eat more.
The food here is out of this world!” “Mr. ke, there’s a mole around your eye.
It’s called a beauty mole, you know.
If only you were a girl.” “You’re so good-looking!” She eximed.
“Mina, are you drunk?” Preston asked in disbelief.
She had only had a few small sses.
How did she be as drunk as a skunk? However, Mina looked cute when she i was drunk.
He wondered if she felt ufortable with all the alcohol in her.
