Just as Summer was about to say something, Douglas added, "Don't say 'as you like.' You have to
order something you want to eat."
Hearing this, Summer smiled helplessly. Then she gave two names.
Only then did Douglas let her go. Then he asked Rosie what she wanted to eat.
Rosie moved closer to Douglas, read the menu with him, and then pointed at several dishes on it.
"That's too much. You can't eat them all. Just these, OK?" Douglas was very patient with Rosie.
Rosie found it hard to choose, but she still nodded and said reluctantly, "Alright."
"If you don't finish it, it will be wasted. If you finish it and want some more, we will order again, OK?"
"OK."
"Good girl." Douglas touched Rosie's head before handing the menu to Leonardo.
Leonardo only glanced at him. Douglas immediately understood.
He rubbed his nose and took the menu back. Leonardo meant that Douglas could just order for him.
Douglas and Leonardo had lived together for a long time, so he knew about his preferences.
After ordering the dishes, the private room fell into silence.
Summer asked Douglas, "How are you doing in school?"
"I fit in quite well. I even undertook a few missions." As if he was afraid that Summer would worry about
him, he explained, "They are easy and safe missions."
After all, he was still a student. And difficult missions would await after he graduated.
"That's good." Summer was indeed worried a moment ago.
She watched as Douglas grew from a youth to a strong and responsible young man today, and she felt
happy for him in her heart. In her eyes, Douglas had always been a child. However, she had to accept
Douglas' changes and growth.
During this time, Summer and Douglas had always been talking. Rosie didn't quite understand what
adults were saying. She obediently sat beside them and did not make any noise as she listened
curiously.
After listening for a while, she discovered that Leonardo did not speak much, so she turned her head
curiously to look at Leonardo.
Leonardo's head was lowered, and she was unable to see the expression on his face. It was even
impossible to guess what he was thinking.
Rosie turned around to look at Summer and called out to Leonardo, "Dad."
Hearing this, Leonardo looked up at Rosie, signaling her to speak. Rosie didn't say anything, only
smiled.
Leonardo was stunned for a moment, and the corner of his lower lip curled up. However, even though
the corner of his lower lip curled up, there was no smile on his face. His facial expression softened a
little, and it was no longer as stiff as before.
Only after serving did Summer and Douglas temporarily stop their conversation. After all the dishes
were served, they chatted while eating.
Douglas talked about stories happened in the dormitory. Boys at this age were energetic. In their dull
school life, they thought of many different fun ways to kill the boring time.
Douglas told Summer about this, and Summer couldn't help but laugh. Leonardo listened quietly from
beginning to end, but did not join them.
Rosie only understood part of Douglas' stories. But Rosie did not quite get the whole picture.
Therefore, she was confused when they laughed, and she could only focus on eating.
She even kindly gave Leonardo her favorite chicken wings.
