Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star
chapter-156

This girl who called Zhang Pei “mom” was nothing like Zhang Pei’s daughter except for her face. This girl was elegant, dignified, always calm, and talented.

Man Man said this girl was a real princess.

Of course, princesses would be like this.

“Mom,”

Liu Man walked upstairs and told Zhang Pei, “Owner Yu wants to treat us to dinner at Owner Wang’s restaurant.”

Zhang Pei heard her, turned around, and saw Liu Man’s bright smile. Her frozen heart softened again.

Forget it. Maybe this was God’s arrangement to give her and her husband two daughters:

One was an empress, and the other was a princess.

They should feel proud and honored.

Zhang Pei got an answer to everything and smiled, relieved, “Let’s go and have dinner. Make sure to thank Owner Yu for treating us.”

The mother and daughter went downstairs together, and Liu Man was always half a step behind her mother to show respect. Zhang Pei knew that etiquette was the most obvious difference between this princess and her biological daughter.

Zhang Pei saw Yu Zhan standing on the first floor of the exit of the stairs, waiting for them, smiling and standing gracefully. Zhang Pei felt inexplicable that Yu Zhan seemed to be the same person as the princess, and he always treated people in just the right way so they could never be disgusted with him. Presumably, his education must be excellent.

Because they had just figured out their relationship, Liu Man did not dare to tell Zhang Pei right away. Yu Zhan showed no means to say anything; he politely invited Zhang Pei into Owner Wang’s restaurant.

At this time, there were some diners in the restaurant, but the seats were not full. Owner Wang was happy to receive their business and personally led the three of them to an empty table.

“It’s rare for you to come here and eat together. You are all my friends, so this one’s on the house!” Owner Wang said generously.

Yu Zhan said with a smile, “I finally invited Owner Zhang and her daughter to dinner at the same time. You don’t even allow me to please them.”

What a shrewd person he was. Owner Wang glanced at Liu Man and immediately understood what Yu Zhan meant.

Oh, this kid dares to chase the Hanfu Goddess. He must be quite courageous! No wonder he managed to get so close to Owner Zhang; this was a strategy!

Owner Wang stopped mentioning the exemption, “You eat and drink well, just tell me if you have any needs.”

After he finished speaking, he went to other tables.

“Auntie, you should order,” Yu Zhan put the menu in front of Zhang Pei to order.

Zhang Pei did not reject, and she flipped through the menu, saying, “I want to order Man Man’s favorite dish…”

She paused in the middle of her sentence, and she looked towards Liu Man,

“Ah, I’ve been too busy lately that I’m becoming very forgetful. What’s your favorite dish again?”

How could Liu Man have known that Zhang Pei had the dream and learned that she was from the Han Dynasty? Liu Man smiled and said, “I’m not fastidious; any dish is fine.”

The real Liu Man was a demoness. She had lots of dishes she detested. Since childhood, Zhang Pei and Liu Chengyu had no choice but to tolerate this child’s shortcomings. Zhang Pei asked Yu Zhan again, “What about Owner Yu? What do you like to eat?”

“I’m not a picky eater either.”

Yu Zhan’s answer and smile were the same as Liu Man’s.

“Since you two are being polite, I will order it to my taste, then.”

Zhang Pei only ordered three dishes and one soup so they would not waste anything.

While waiting for the food, Zhang Pei, who was full of thoughts, noticed that Liu Man’s right hand got wrapped in gauze. Zhang Pei blamed herself for being such a negligent mother!

“What happened to your hand?”

“I got a little scratch when I played on the strings. Owner Yu had applied the medicine for me, and it’s not a big deal,” Liu Man said.

Zhang Pei, however, could tell from her words that she had an unusual relationship with Yu Zhan. Shouldn’t she go to a regular hospital for a finger injury instead of going to a pet clinic?

Zhang Pei’s gaze quietly circulated between the two of them, and then she said to Liu Man with earnest words, “You live by playing the qin, and your hands are the most valuable things you have. Take care of your injuries, and don’t leave any sequelae. You should pay more attention to playing the qin in the future; protect your hands.”

She only said “playing the qin” but not “playing the piano”.

TL’s Note: In Chinese, the piano is called “gangqin”, and so people generally call instruments like piano qin, including the Guqin.

Zhang Pei and Yu Zhan were on the same side when it came to Liu Man’s fingers. Any performance could be given up, but she must never hurt herself.

Since there weren’t many customers, the dishes got served quickly.

The three of them were eating, chatting, and laughing. The atmosphere was harmonious as if they were a family.

Owner Wang’s restaurant was just a homestyle restaurant. The decoration was simple, and they didn’t serve takeouts. There were no private rooms. The guests who came to eat were usually working-class people. Some were too lazy to cook and brought their family to fill their stomachs. Some were in groups of three to five, ordering a few dishes and a few bottles of beer, which also satisfied them. It was just a common restaurant.

Their table was very different. To be precise, it was the aura of Liu Man and Yu Zhan, who were incompatible with the others. One reason was that they had good appearances, but more importantly, it was their dining postures that were different.

Yu Zhan has been taking care of the two ladies next to him. Liu Man could hold the chopsticks with her right hand, and he dropped the food into her bowl. Yu Zhan did not act indifferent towards Zhang Pei, either. He added tea and prepared napkins for her from time to time, being very gentleman-like.

Liu Man ate with small mouthfuls. She was gentle, calm, and quiet; she wasn’t rushing at all. There was no indecent state going on like tableware falling or splashing soup because she was using her unskilled left hand to eat.

Soon enough, young diners noticed them and started talking in low voices,

“That girl looks so familiar.”

“She looks very familiar to me, too.”

“Oh, oh, oh! I see! She is the Hanfu Goddess!” The man immediately took out his phone and sneaked a photo.

“She is the Hanfu Goddess! Why would she eat here?”

“She looks a bit like the middle-aged woman next to her. The woman should be her mother, but who is that man? They look very close; is he her boyfriend?”

“Maybe he’s just her relative?”

“Who cares? Hurry up and take pictures so we can post them on the internet and attract attention. I didn’t expect that we could meet celebrities just from eating a meal.”

Several diners posted the photos and videos they sneaked to their WeChat Moments, Wei Bo, and Tik Tok, “Surprise! I’m dining at a small restaurant, and I met the Hanfu Goddess!” They also attached the address of Owner Wang’s restaurant.

Thanks to Newsbreaker Wang Daqiang, the two words “Hanfu Goddess” on the internet were so popular that they were burning. Netizens not only analyzed her love triangle with Tang Tu and Shen Mozhen but also started exploring her circle of friends — Including her friendships with Yang Huayue, Coco, and others.

Everyone who commonly surfed on the internet knew Hanfu Goddess. For just a cyber star to become such a famous person, she had to depend on not only her abilities but also her luck.

After the photos and videos got posted online, they got quickly liked and forwarded. Some netizens saw that the time was this exact moment and saw the location in the lower-left corner being not far from their home, so they hurried to join in the fun.

When these people arrived, Liu Man, Yu Zhan, and Zhang Pei had finished eating and left.

Owner Wang took a look around at his fully occupied restaurant, and his heart was full of joy. He deeply understood the meaning of the word “Brilliance”.
