Madelyn took off the scarf on her neck and hung it on the coat rack at the entrance.
“You guys can order first! I'm going to the washroom.” “Sure! Go ahead,” Yvonne replied. She grabbed the menu and moved to Zach's side, “Let's order together. What do you want to eat? | won't go easy on you this time.” “Anything,” said Zach.

“How about this? We'll add on the rest of it when she’s back.” Madelyn returned from the washroom and noticed that all the private rooms had a dedicated waiter. Since she had yet to order, the waiter by the door handed her a menu. Madelyn did not know what to eat. She did not like seafood and could not eat much, so she ordered a vegetarian risotto.

She walked in the door and sat down across the two. The table was not big, and she could touch them if she stretched her legs.
There was a glass of piping hot rose tea in front of her. Madelyn cupped the glass with her hands; her hands were a bit cold after she had washed them.

Madelyn was actually quite envious of Yvonne.
‘Aside from her unavoidable responsibility as family heir, she doesn’t seem to be restricted by anything else. She has a harmonious family and loving parents. She can act freely and isn’t bound by anything; she’s like those princesses on TV,” she thought.
Madelyn ate very little. She did not like eating crab because of how tedious it was.
Yvonne had a bottle of wine infused with cinnamon and star anise. Its taste was rich and mellow. While it had low alcohol content, one could easily get drunk from it.
