"What?" Rainie asked rather impatiently.

"Do you provide meals here?" Zachary smiled.

"No," Rainie replied coolly.

Nonetheless, Zachary stubbornly tried again, “I'm not familiar with thearea. Could you recommend a good restaurant?"

Rainie smiled then, but it was an ironic one. "As in the gourmet foodyou always eat? We don't have that here in this village."

Zachary was speechless for a moment, and kept smiling, “I'm not apicky eater. I actually eat everything.”

"Even dung?" Rainie asked, and pointed at the washroom before hecould say anything. "You can make it yourself."

Zachary was left speechless again, and he wondered if she really wasLulu.

After all, she was not that crude before, but why would they share thesame face if she was not?

Still, he tried to be polite. "Nice joke, Ms. Lang.”

Rainie shot him a dirty look. "What makes you think I'm kidding?"With that, she dashed downstairs, her boots hitting the floor loudly inher wake.

Still, Zachary was not giving up. Once it was time to eat, he headeddownstairs to ask Barbara, “Do you offer meals here?"

Barbara did a double take, but she soon smiled. "Actually, wasn't therea sign out there that says we don't provide meals? But if you don'tmind, you could eat with us-*'

"Mom." Rainie walked up to them just then. "He's actually a veryimportant person. All the food he eats is more than what we can afford,and our cheap food would hurt his tongue. Let's eat already."

With that, she pulled her mother away, but Zachary followed. "I canstomach cheap food t00."

Barbara proved warm and enthusiastic. "Sure! Join us!"

Rainie rolled her eyes at him, but could not say anything since hermother had agreed to it.

She was certainly upset even if she wanted to bear with it-the thoughtof a person harassing her at work eating at the same table left her verygrumpy.

Even the food in her stomach was hard as a rock as it went down herstomach.

Zachary was not being cagey-the homemade meal was good anyway,and seeing Rainie suffer made him happy for some reason, somehowmaking the food even more delicious.

“I'm planning to stay here for a while, and I'll pay the expenses for foodas well," Zachary said as he whipped out a stack of bills from hispocket.

Barbara quickly refused. "Oh, you don't have to—it's already enoughthat you're staying with us.”

It cost 250 dollars to stay a night, and she would profit just fromZachary's long-term lodging.

"You can always eat here if you don't mind too," Barbara smiled, herchubby face making her seem even more friendly.

"Thank you very much," Zachary became smug that he got to stay, andnoticing Rainie's glare just then, he asked knowingly, "Why the sourface, Ms. Lang? Did you eat something terrible?"

"That would be you," Rainie snorted, and left the table right then.Barbara glanced at Zachary just then, "You know my daughter?"Zachary nodded. "We met before-I ate at the place where she wasworking."

"I see," Barbara nodded. "She can be feisty, so please don't takeoffense.”

Zachary asked, "Your daughter? But you look nothing alike."

He wanted to know more, and he saw that the woman's face fell.

Still, she quickly realized that she was overreacting and she forced asmile, "Oh, what are you saying? Who is she, if not my daughter? Doyou mean to say I found her somewhere and carried her home?"
