Stephen's reserved nature had him at a loss. Hannah looked at him lovingly. "Is there anything you want to say?"

Hans gasped. "Sh*t—that fool sister of mine can't be trying to make him propose now, can she? That won't do!"

Hannah smiled at him. "Li, what did you get me?"

Li Du pointed at the dishes. "That table of dishes. How is it?"

Reeves nodded. "It's not bad. Even though I haven't tasted anything yet, the food looks good enough for me to be sure that it's much better than Hans's grilled meat."

Hans asked drily, "My dear uncle, can you not do that?"

"Oh, yes. Where is Ah Meow?" asked Hannah.
