The crowd in the fast-food restaurant consisted mainly of loitering teenagers.
As soon as he set foot into the KFC, almost all eyes fell on him. This was especially true for the girls, who momentarily almost seemed like they had lost all interest in their boyfriends; even though their boyfriends were right in front of them.
However, Stanley paid them no notice as usual. Scanning the restaurant’s layout, he managed to catch sight of Catherine Batton.
Catherine was seated by the window near a corner of the restaurant, enjoying her Plum Wine ice-cream.
While this was happening, several girls in the restaurant were already whispering among themselves. His good looks had garnered a lot of attention from them, and the girls were silently fangirling over him.
When she saw Stanley, Catherine waved at him enthusiastically. The dimples at the corners of her lips looked exceptionally cute on her, especially when she smiled.
Catherine had always been proud to have such an admired and adored brother. She beamed with joy just thinking about it.
Without paying any heed to the whispering girls, he walked toward Catherine’s table. Once seated, he turned his WeChat on to scan the QR code, ready to order some food. “You mentioned fried chicken and burgers earlier right? Which burger are you craving for?”
Her right hand held onto the ice-cream which she was still licking, while her other was placed under her chin as she thought. While she was considering which burger to get, she found herself peeking at the surrounding girls who were still busy staring at her brother.
Her pride for her brother kicked in and she grinned as she looked at his handsome face, a mischievous giggle following soon after. “Hehe… You have many fans stealing glances at you Fifth brother.”
“I see.” His attention was focused on the menu and he showed no interest in the topic.
Her lovely grin didn’t falter despite his clear disinterest. “They must be so envious of me, those girls. I wonder if they’re mistaking me as your girlfriend. I wonder how many of them are secretly jealous of me… Hehe.”
“So what do you want to eat?” Stanley asked again as he changed the subject.
“Hmm… I’ll have an Orleans burger, a spicy chicken burger, a chicken wrap, and three fried chicken wings... Ah, and don’t forget one large fries and a large Coke…”
Stanley raised a brow slightly. “Are you sure you can finish all that?”
“Shouldn’t be a problem.” Catherine reassured him. “You can have some as well if I can’t finish them. Don’t forget your own order, Fifth brother.”
She waved her hand loftily before adding, “You’re paying for all of this after all.”
Following that statement, she chuckled naughtily.
