Let's Get Married novel Chapter 71

However, she still reaches out and shakes her hand gently, “Hello.”

She simply greets them. When it is Orson’s turn, even before he speaks, Lily greets obediently, “Orson.”

After hearing those words, Karl and Pehry glance at each other, signaling ‘Orson’s pretty good’.

Rex sits with an expressionless face. His vision swipes towards them, “You guys are too old to let people call as brother.”

Orson fights for his justice, “I’m thirty-two, and we’re at the same age right.”

Saying people old, he is also not much better.

Who knows, Rex talks back without changing his expression, “I’m the youngest among all of you.”

“It’s just a few days apart, how can you be so shameless!” Orson shocks, he doesn’t expect the renowned iceberg Rex is so childish!

Lily slightly leans over to his ear and asks, “When is your birthday?”

His stiff eyebrows raise a bit, “December 25th.”

Lily is kind of surprise, “It’s the Christmas day.”

“Yes.” Rex doesn’t care much. It’s been a while since the last time he celebrates his birthday, owing to the fact that he regarded it as ordinary day. After his parents divorce, birthday doesn’t mean anything for him.

Lily sits upright and counts, December 25th is less than month now, and what should she give him?

However, she can’t afford the expensive one, but also is too shameful to give a cheap one as a present. Moreover, Rex doesn’t seem to lack of anything.

Just when she is distraught, the waiter has serves an aperitif. There are three kind of it in total and each of it is paired with different glasses. When Rex sees Lily is about to drink, he points on the left glass with brown liquid on it, “Drink this one.”

Lily understands what he meant and feels a little embarrass. Since Rex had ever met the drunk of her, he knows how much alcohol she could tolerate….

She takes a small sip of the glass, which is bitter but taste not bad. It is more like a kind of glycol with a very refreshing taste. She then wonders how much will cost this small wine.

French cuisine is divided into main and secondary course, from appetizers to main course to desserts. All of those are served exquisitely. It also takes some time to eat each dish. Lily basically is still restrained, but Pehry and the gang takes care of her. After all, Lily is still young with no harm for them, she soon blends with them.

It was an enjoyable meal. They always had a habit of smoking two roots when gathering together. When they started the tradition, they tease Rex as soon as they arrive at the first floor.

“Rex, your girl is too cute!” As they arrived, Pehry begins to foolish talk. “I think having a relationship with your girl can definitely make you younger.”

With that, he elbows Karl, “What do you think?”

“With your smothery intelligence now, I don’t think you need to be younger anymore.” Karl makes sarcasm, “But Lily is more innocent than I think.”

About that point, Karl is genuine about it.

Lily is really different from other woman. Whether it is from her personalities or appearance, she looks refreshing and makes people wanted to be close with her.

Rex listens silently without making a sound. He finally looks at Pehry after a root, “After you smoke a root, go inside and chat with her.”

Pehry is the most talkative among them. Lily won’t feel awkward when chatting with him.

Hearing those words, Pehry obey it unusually. After sniffing the cigarette, he turns and walks upstairs, leaving only Karl, Orson and Rex in the place.
