Hearing him, Gabrielle felt relieved. She was worried that Westley would complain about this place and leave if he
didn’t like the food here.
She didn’t expect that Westley could be So equable to enjoy in such a small restaurant
“Sure enough, everyone likes Akiba’s soup.’ Gabrielle smiled.
“It’s good, then. You know, Akiba cooks the best soup and porridge. Akiba’s barbecue stall doesn’t only sell barbecue. Many people come here for the famous soup and porridge he cooks too.

“If you like it, I will cook it for you in the future. After all, I have stayed here for a few months. So, I have learned how to cook this one.” u
Gabrielle served him a bowl of porridge, Smiling boastfully.
Westley stared at her for a few seconds. He obviously couldn’t believe that she said that so sincerely. “Gabrielle, you must keep your promise. If you can’t do it, don’t say it.”

“That’s exactly what you are,” Westley said without a pause. He felt amused.
Gabrielle was embarrassed being teased this way. ‘Which girl woulPbe happy to be called a rascal?
“No, I am not. Don’t jest about that, Westley.” Gabrielle made a face.
“Then remember, the last person I’d like will be the one who can’t do what he says. Since you said that you would cook soup for me in the future, you should keep it in mind and do what you say.” Westley’s tone was calm.
“I know! Don’t worry. I’m not that unreliable.” Gabrielle looked at him with
a grievance.
Akiba and his wife brought the barbecue upstails for them. When they appeared at the door and heard their conversation, the older woman naturally started complimenting Gabrielle without hesitation. “Yes, sir. Please, trust Our Gabrielle. She has always been an honest girl. She will do what she says.”
