Meredith withdrew from his arms. “I don‘t want to eat anything.”
“Well, you do have to eat lunch.”
“I want to eat by myself.”
Josiah understood, she just did not want to eat with him.

“You will what?” Meredith looked at his dark face with a little bit of fear in her heart, but she still stared at him.
“…I‘m going to carry you in,” Josiah said, bending his waist and picking her up from the ground.
“Since you‘re not afraid of attention, let‘s go in like this,” he looked down at her and said.

The private room was large and decorated in an antique style, and the log–colored tea table in the corner was even more delicate.
Meredith fell in love at a glance.
She glanced at Josiah by her side, put away the admiration in her eyes, and returned to the dining table to sit down.
“Edith, the dishes are not ready yet. Come and try the special Japanese tea.” Josiah waved to her.
He could see that Meredith really wanted to try the tea here.

Meredith came over immediately, sat down in the main seat, and started pounding the tea set on the tea table.
