Editor: Henyee Translations
"Jack, good morning," Anita said while looking at Jack.
Jack looked nice today. He looked at Anita and smiled. "Anita, good morning."
"I’m sorry, Jack. It’s been hard on you for the past two days. I’ll catch up with the experiment as soon as possible," Anita said again, feeling a little embarrassed.
"It’s okay. We’re partners, so this is expected. Take a look at these results from the experiments I’ve been doing these past two days. See if you can use them." Jack said as he handed the two test reports to Anita.
Anita looked at the report Jack handed her and reached out to take it. She said with a smile, "Jack, thank you very much. You’re really a good partner."
When Jack heard Anita’s praise, he smiled slightly. He didn’t say anything. He knew that Anita’s praise for him every time was purely platonic. She didn’t have any other thoughts.
But he was different. Every time he heard Anita praise him, he would feel excited. After the two of them finished talking, they started to enter their experimental states.
Anita had fallen behind for two days. She had to hurry up, so she didn’t even go out for lunch. Jack helped her bring lunch back.
When she finally finished the day’s experiment, she saw that it was already past 6. Owen would have to work overtime today too. Anita thought about it and said, "Jack, are you busy tonight?"
Jack heard Anita’s question and wondered what she meant. He froze. "What is it? I’m free tonight."
"Let me treat you to dinner tonight. You always bring me food and help with my experiment progress. I’m really grateful to you," Anita said seriously while looking at Jack.
Jack smiled at Anita’s words. He thought Anita was going to say something else, but she was actually going to treat him to a meal. "Sure. Of course I’m happy to have someone treat me to a meal."
Anita smiled when she heard that Jack had agreed. To be honest, she didn’t like owing others favors, which was why she had suggested inviting Jack for dinner.
Since they were going out to eat, the two of them didn’t delay and walked out of the laboratory after packing.
"Jack, what do you want to eat later?" Anita asked Jack.
"Anything is fine. Just recommend it," Jack said indifferently.
Anita thought about it for a moment before saying, "Then let’s go to the place I used to frequent outside the school. It’s quite delicious. It’s a Korean restaurant that has been open for many years. I wonder if you’ve eaten there before."
"Korean food? I’ve never eaten it before. I can try it," Jack said to Anita.
"Really? You haven’t eaten Korean food before? You must eat more later. The restaurant’s food is really good, especially the Doenjang-jjigae. It’s delicious." This was the first time Anita brought people to eat Korean food, so she tried hard to introduce the food. freёweɓnovel.com
Jack was not very interested in the food after hearing Anita’s description, but she was very cute when she tried hard to introduce the food. "I can’t wait to eat what you said."
Anita smiled shyly when she heard Jack’s words and looked at him again. She knew that she might look like a salesperson at this moment. He probably thought that she had something to do with the Korean restaurant.
"I’m sorry. I just think the food is too delicious, that’s why I keep saying that," Anita said shyly while touching her cheek.
Seeing Anita act like this, Jack couldn’t help but reach out and touch her hair before quickly retracting his hand. "It’s okay. I think your sale was very successful. I want to eat it."
Anita laughed as well when she heard Jack’s words. The two of them quickly arrived at the restaurant outside the school.
It was mealtime. The small Korean restaurant was filled with people. It looked like many of them went to school here. "See, this Korean restaurant is really delicious. There are so many people," Anita said while pulling Jack.
"Anita, why are you here today? Why didn’t you tell me in advance?" The boss of the Korean restaurant saw Anita and hurriedly said warmly.
"Boss, I brought a friend here today to let him try Korean food. He hasn’t eaten it before," Anita said with a smile while looking at the boss.
"Then you can try it today. If it’s delicious, you can come more often in the future." The boss glanced at Jack and then turned to look at Anita. As he spoke, he led the two of them to the empty seat in the back.
After the two of them were seated, Anita handed the menu to Jack first. Jack took it and looked at it. He had never eaten Korean food and really didn’t know what to order. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
So he handed the menu to Anita again. "Why don’t you order? I really don’t know much about Korean food."
Anita smiled and took the menu. She quickly ordered a few of the shop’s signature dishes, including Doenjang-jjigae, fried chicken, and kimchi. She also ordered hotpot.
