Before Ye Luo could speak, Yan Baba jumped up excitedly. “No way! We get a share too? Great, great, let’s go quickly!”

With that, Yan Baba eagerly headed for the stairs to go up to the third floor, but Ye Wuqi grabbed him back.

“Why the rush? Haven’t even asked if it costs money! If it does, you got the cash?” Ye Wuqi snapped at Yan Baba before turning toward the person in charge with a shameless grin. “Hey, sir, does it cost money? If not, then we’re going!”

The cafeteria manager seemed caught off guard by his brazen attitude and hesitated before quickly smiling, “Actually, the food isn’t prepared by our cafeteria. Someone specially made it for Ye Luo. I’m just here to let you know.”

“Oh, so we’re just tagging along, huh? Then obviously it’s free!” Ye Wuqi understood and smiled broadly.

Yan Baba and Lei Xingxing got it too and smiled just as widely.

Qin Zhaowen and Qin Zhaoyu, who usually didn’t lack money, weren’t as thrilled as Ye Wuqi’s group; they just looked at Ye Luo with confusion.

Ye Luo herself was puzzled and asked the manager, “Who prepared this especially for me?”

He smiled, “You’ll find out when you go upstairs.”

Still teasing?

Ye Luo hesitated to go up, feeling something wasn’t right.

But the manager added with a smile, “I took a look—there are so many dishes, so many varieties I’ve never even seen before. Truly worthy of a top chef.”

Ye Wuqi’s eyes lit up immediately. “A top chef made this?! Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go! Free food is free food, and we save a meal’s money!”

Seeing Ye Wuqi rush toward the stairs, Yan Baba and the others hurried after him.

When they reached the stairwell, about to ascend, they noticed Ye Luo standing emotionless behind them. They waved, “Sister Luo! Hurry up! What, do we have to drag you?”

They even pretended to reach out as if to pull her along.

With no choice, Ye Luo followed them upstairs.

The cafeteria had only three floors and no elevator.

On the way up, Qin Zhaowen couldn’t help but analyze aloud, “Sister Luo, if the food is made by a top chef, the person inviting you isn’t ordinary. Think about the powerful people you know. If there’s any, then think who among them would invite you. That’s probably who it is.”

Before Ye Luo could answer, Qin Zhaoyu snapped back impatiently, “Zhaowen, are you stupid? They said you’ll find out once you get upstairs! Why are you overthinking? Just go up already!”

Ye Wuqi laughed heartily, “Zhaowen, this time I’m with Zhaoyu. You’re kinda dumb right now.”

Qin Zhaowen smiled good-naturedly, not offended at all.

But Ye Luo’s brow furrowed ever so slightly. Among the powerful people she knew here, the only one who might go to such lengths to invite her was that... person.

Once they reached the third floor, Ye Wuqi and the others started searching for the private room 303.

“This is it!” Ye Wuqi found it first and pushed the door open, exclaiming, “Holy crap!”

“Qi, what’s going on? What’s going on?” Yan Baba, closest to Ye Wuqi, hurried inside and also blurted, “Holy crap!”

“What the hell is this?” Qin Zhaoyu was baffled. With his hot temper, he pushed aside Qin Zhaowen blocking the way and went in before him.

Seeing what was inside, he too exclaimed, “Holy crap!”
