After Natalie ordered the steaks, she ordered some sides too.
Soon, the waitresses served the steaks and the dishes.
Watching as Natalie cut the steak up into smaller pieces, Christopher felt a strange feeling rise within
him.
“I‘ve been suffering from a pulmonary disease since young. Hence, this is my first time eating steak,”
exclaimed Christopher.
“Why are you acting all melodramatic now?” Natalie placed the cut steak onto Christopher‘s plate.
“Eating steaks isn‘t like eating snakeblood fruits. It‘s not a tough thing to do! You can eat many more
steaks in the future.”

When Natalie saw that Christopher did not even touch the steak, she figured he was concerned about
hygiene issues with Natalie cutting his steak. Just when she was about to take it back, Christopher
stopped her.
“Who said that I‘m not eating?” Christopher picked the steak up with the fork and stuffed it into his
mouth. “I‘m just waiting for it to cool down.”
“Mr. Collins, now that I‘ve had a meal with you, you mustn‘t break your promise about giving me the
snakeblood fruit.”
“Of course.”
“Okay!”
Natalie munched on the steak happily, her mood improving significantly.
She managed to get a snakeblood fruit in exchange for a meal. With this, she had more time to search
for the dragonblood fruit.

Oh, the dragonblood fruit! Where can I find you?
The room was filled with the fragrance of the steak. While Natalie was engrossed with eating her steak,
Christopher couldn‘t keep his eyes off her. He thought that she was like a cute kitten–lively and
mischievous, with a short temper. She would appear aloof unless there was something that could tempt
her.
His feelings of affection increased as he watched her.
When they left the restaurant, the rain had already stopped with the street lamps lit up.
“Accompany me to pick a present for Grandma. After that, I’ll ask Nicholas to send the snakeblood fruit

Yet, when they glanced at the woman beside him, they immediately noticed that she was wearing
unbranded clothes. More importantly, her face was extremely average looking–completely different
from Christopher‘s dazzling looks.
“That woman is really ugly.”
“What methods did she use to hook up with this man?”
“Shush! Lower your volume! They might hear you!”
“Yeah! But what can we do? She‘s like a toad courting a prince!”
When Natalie heard that, she almost rolled her eyes.
Although she admitted that her hyper–realistic mask was quite ugly, their words were simply ridiculous.

A toad courting a prince? I bet that they didn‘t do well in literature class.
Naturally, Christopher heard those comments too. Staring at Natalie‘s face, he suddenly remembered
the gorgeous face that lay underneath that hyper–realistic mask. A grin spread across his lips.
He grabbed Natalie‘s arm and pulled her closer to him.
“What are you doing?”.
“I want you to stand closer to me,” said Christopher. “It‘s best if you stay within my sight forever.”
