Chapter 786 Pick the Crab for You
Seeing the loss on Sydney''s face, Julien picked a shrimp and put the shrimp into her te. "Now
that you haven''t gorged on seafood for a long time, enjoy it and eat as much as you like. As long as
you want to eat it in the future, I will apany you."
Hearing his words, she was moved. She nodded with a smile. "Alright, it''s a deal. Don''t go back on
your word when you''re busy."
"I won''t." He shook his head. "As long as you don''t mind, I can eat seafood with you while I''m
dealing with the documents or holding meetings."
Hearing his description, she couldn''t help but burst intoughter.
"You can eat seafood with me while you''re dealing with the documents or holding meetings? It
sounds so funny."
It was funny indeed. She even imagined the scene in her mind. ''Julien is holding a meeting with
dozens of or hundreds of people. He sits on his chair with a te of seafood in front of him. He
picks shrimp while he is exining the content of the meeting with others.''
''The scene is so funny.''
She couldn''t helpughing, and her face turned red.
He looked at her. "Alright, it''s enough. Don''tugh for too long in case you''re choked."
She nodded nonstop. "Got it."
She took a deep breath and calmed down.
He picked up a crab and put it on his te. He put on gloves as he said, "Do you feel much better
now?"
She arched her eyebrows. "So you said that you would apany me to eat seafood while you
were holding a meeting to amuse me?"
"You''re right." After he put on gloves, he opened a box, which contained professional tools to pick
crabs.
She felt warm in her heart. "Of course, I feel much better. Iughed happily just now. I didn''t expect
you to amuse me actively."
He looked up at her and said gently, "I love you. Of course, I hope you are happy." Then he lowered
his head again and started to pick the crab.
It was the first time that she saw him picking a crab.
To be honest, picking crabs was not graceful. People in their circle thought that it was rude and dirty.
Thus, people in their circle always ate ready-made crab meat. They wouldn''t pick crabs by
themselves because they thought that it would damage their images and that they would be
laughed at.
Even when she had meals with others, she wouldn''t pick crabs by herself. She would only ignore
her image and pick crabs when she was alone or had meals with Luke.
She thought that Julien was the same as her and wouldn''t pick crabs by himself. To her surprise,
she was wrong.
Besides, his moves were not rude at all. On the contrary, his moves were graceful and delightful.
She kept her eyes glued to him.
All in all, he was the only one who could pick crabs so elegantly while others in the circle gave it a
wide berth.
She even looked at him with admiration.
He noticed that and looked up at her. He saw her fixing her eyes on the crab in his hands. He
smiled more brightly but kept silent. He lowered his head again to pick the crab more quickly.
A few minutester, he finished picking the big crab. All the crab''s meat and roe were put in the top
shell. The crab''s meat and roe stuffed the top shell and looked golden. When he moved the top
shell, the crab''s meat and roe were shaking. It looked so tempting. She even had the impulse to
spoon it and put it into her mouth. It would be amazing if her mouth was filled with it.
She couldn''t help but swallow saliva. Then she looked away with difficulty.
She was afraid that she would snatch it if she continued to look at it.
She would better pick a crab by herself.
When she put down her fork and was about to take a crab, he reached out his hand towards her
with the top shell.
He put the top shell on her te.
She fell into a trance. She looked at the top shell on her te. Then she looked at Julien who had
withdrawn his hand. She opened her mouth and asked in surprise, "Why do you give it to me?"
He pulled a tissue to wipe his hands as he looked at her with a smile and said, "I picked it for you."
She widened her eyes. "For me?"
"Yes." He nodded. "Taste it. It will be fishy when it turns cold."

Only then did she make sure that he picked the crab for her specially.
Just now, she coveted it and even had the impulse to snatch it. She didn''t expect him to prepare it
for her from the beginning.
She felt warm, and the expression on her face became extremely gentle. "Thank you."
He picked up the ss and took a sip of the ck tea. "You''re wee. It''s just a crab. Hurry to eat
it, but you can only eat one. It will be unhealthy if you eat too much."
"OK." She nodded happily.
He put down the ck tea, picked up the fork and started to eat.
She felt so happy to eat the crab and had a big smile on her face all the time.
Seeing that she ate the crab so happily, he also felt happy.
Although it wasn''t he who had steamed the crab, he felt satisfied to have picked the crab for her
when he saw her eating the crab so happily.
He felt satisfied that what he had done made her happy.
Suddenly, she thought of one thing. She looked at him and asked curiously, "By the way, why do
you know how to pick crabs?"
As far as she knew, he shouldn''t have known how to pick crabs and wasn''t a man to do that.
But he did it perfectly. He was so skilled like an old hand.
It wasn''t his style at all.
He cut an abalone with the knife, chuckled and said to her, "I learned it specially."
"Why did you learn it?" She felt more confused. "It isn''t a necessary skill and is no benefit to your
career."
In her opinion, he should learn various professional skills of elites instead of learning picking crabs
which was useless.
Even though he would like to learn how to cook, there was no need for him to learn how to pick
crabs.
Learning how to cook and learning how to pick crabs were unrted.
He ate the abalone, put down the fork and knife, wiped his mouth and said, "It''s no benefit to my
career indeed, but it''s beneficial to my love."
He looked up at her, and his gaze was filled with gentleness and affection.
His gaze was so straightforward. The tips of her ears turned red. She couldn''t help but lower her
head. "You''re smooth-tongued."
"What I said is true. After I learned about your hobbies, I have almost learned all the rted skills so
that I can use them one day and practice them with you. I have known that you like to eat crabs, so
I have gone to learn how to pick crabs specially. I would like to pick crabs for you when you eat
crabs. Thus, you needn''t do it by yourself but can enjoy the best crab meat."
She said in a trembling voice, "So it turns out like that." Of course, she was moved.
She had guessed that he must have done many things for her behind her back. As expected, he
even learned how to pick crabs for the moment. She was so moved that she didn''t know what she
could say.
