Volume 1: Chapter 364 The Dinner with Está

That evening, Luffy arrived at Estella's room as promised.

As for Xing, after learning that Luffy had made plans with Estelle that night, she cursed Luffy while going to play on Azure Star alone.

Of course, Luffy wasn't one to hold grudges. Before Star left, Luffy used the Luck-Luck Fruit to absorb some of Star's luck.

Consider it a way to replenish the luck I've used up today.

At that moment, Luffy stood in front of Estella's bedroom door and gently knocked on it.

As soon as there was a knock on the door, there was immediate movement inside the room.

A short while later, Estádio opened the door with a nervous expression.

"You're here!"

Upon seeing Luffy in front of her, Estella couldn't help but feel her heart race.

After peeking out and looking around to make sure no one was nearby, Estelle pulled Luffy into her room.

Perhaps to entertain Luffy, Estelle also did a considerable amount of tidying up of her bedroom.

Estella cleared a space in the middle and placed a table that she had brought from somewhere.

On the table, on both sides, were exquisite tableware.

There were even burning candles placed in the middle.

Seeing this, Luffy couldn't help but speak up.

A candlelight dinner?!

"No, it's just that I accidentally ordered a couple's meal, and the restaurant gave it to me as a free gift!"

Estella explained, her face flushed.

Are you sure you clicked the wrong thing by accident?

Upon hearing this, Estella nodded vigorously, though of course, Estella was lying.

While wondering what to buy, Esther's eyes were drawn to the restaurant's signature candlelight dinner for two.

Then, Estelle couldn't help but imagine herself and Luffy enjoying a romantic candlelight dinner.

When Estella came to her senses, she found that she had already clicked the order button.

Estella didn't know why she hadn't canceled the order until the food arrived, at which point she belatedly realized it.

But there's not much time left until evening, and it's too late to buy it now.

Having hypnotized herself in this way, Estádio finally took out the couple's meal.

After helping Luffy to his seat, Estelle brought out all the food she had bought.

Soup, appetizer, main course, dessert.

If this were in a restaurant, it would naturally be served one dish at a time.

But since we're at home, there aren't as many rules to follow.

Estelle simply took everything out, and at the very end, she even found a bottle of red wine among them.

"You still have wine?"

Looking at the red wine in her hand, Estádio seemed somewhat surprised.

After all, her memory of ordering the food was basically blank, and even now, Está doesn't know what was in that meal for two.

"Alcohol? I'm easygoing, but Estelle, would you be okay with that?"

"Just one or two cups should be fine!"

Since we've already bought it, it would be a waste not to drink it.

So Estelle took out the wine glass thoughtfully provided by the merchant, and then somewhat awkwardly opened the red wine in her hand.

After pouring a glass for herself and Luffy, Estella also raised her glass.

"How about we start with a toast?"

"of course can!"

Upon hearing this, Luffy also raised his glass in a gesture of acknowledgment.

"cheers!"

The two men's glasses clinked together in the air, producing a crisp sound.

Looking at Luffy in front of her, Estella's face turned slightly red.

"Actually, there's something I forgot to mention. Estella, did you change your clothes? You look great!"

"Really? Thank you for the compliment!"

Estella felt a surge of joy upon hearing Luffy's praise.

Before dinner, Estelle wanted to change into a dress she used to wear to parties, but then she thought the atmosphere wasn't quite right.

So she picked and chose in her wardrobe and finally found a dress that was a little different from what she usually wore.

I originally thought that Luffy hadn't noticed, or that even if he had, he hadn't paid attention.

But upon hearing Luffy's praise, Estelle also felt her heart race.

To hide her shyness, Estelle simply downed the red wine in her hand in one gulp.

With the help of alcohol, Estella felt her mood had calmed down considerably.

Dinner wasn't anything particularly special; the main dish was a steak.

However, since it was Estádio's order, it was naturally made with the best ingredients.

Cut off a piece and put it in your mouth; the beef seems to melt halfway in your mouth.

"How is it, Luffy? Is the taste alright?"

At this moment, Estella asked Luffy with considerable nervousness.

"tasty!"

Seeing that Luffy was pleased, Estella breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he cut off a piece and put it in his mouth.

Although she had eaten steak like this many times before, Aisda found it tasted exceptionally delicious this time.

"To be honest, I originally thought that when you asked Estella if you wanted to eat, you would cook for her yourself!"

"Me, cook it myself?"

Upon hearing this, Estelle asked Luffy somewhat awkwardly.

"Would Mr. Luffy like to eat a dish I made myself?"

"Of course! After all, I'd love to eat a dish made by such a lovely girl like Estella!"

"Well!"

Luffy's praise made Estella's face turn even redder.

At this moment, Estella couldn't help but think about what she would do.

But after thinking for a long time, Estella realized with some despair that she seemed to know nothing how to do!

After all, Estelle comes from a prestigious family, so she certainly wouldn't need to cook food herself.

If you go to the restaurant to have your food prepared, a dedicated chef will have it ready in advance.

"Um, sorry, I'm not very good at cooking!"

Estella looked at Luffy with some disappointment.

"is it?"

Now it was Luffy's turn to be a little embarrassed.

After thinking for a few seconds, Luffy slowly spoke.

"Actually, I can cook some ordinary dishes. Would you like me to teach you next time?"

"Really? Of course I would!"

Estelle stood up excitedly, but quickly realized that she was being impolite, so she sat down again somewhat awkwardly.

At this moment, Estella was also looking forward to Luffy teaching her, which would mean that she would be able to taste Luffy's cooking skills.

However, Estella naturally wanted to show Luffy her best side.

So she couldn't help but wonder if she should learn some basics first?

After all, if he failed, he would lose face in front of Luffy.

"How about I teach you how to make some cookies and snacks? Girls like those, right?"

"I'll like anything Luffy teaches me!"

"?"

At this moment, Estella realized that she had said the wrong thing, so she quickly explained.

"What I mean is I really enjoy it, thank you Luffy for being willing to teach me!"

"Is that so?"

Seeing that Luffy didn't seem to care, Estella nervously poured herself another glass of red wine.

Volume 1: Chapter 365 Estella's Confession

The two ate and chatted, and before they knew it, the dinner was coming to an end.

At this moment, Estella, her face flushed, was lying on the table. Luffy, seeing this, asked her with concern.

"Estella, are you alright?"

"Hmm? What could be wrong with me?"

Looking at Luffy in front of her, Estella muttered to herself.

Upon hearing this, Luffy's gaze also fell upon the wine bottle beside Estelle.

The wine bottle was already empty.

We know Luffy only drank one cup, so who drank the rest? That's hard to guess!

"Aista, you've had too much to drink!"

Luffy also spoke to Estelle.

"Impossible, I only had a few sips, how could I be drunk?"

Estella, who was lying on her seat, quickly spoke up to refute.

However, judging from Estella's drunken state, it was clearly not very convincing.

"Estella, should I help you back to bed to rest?"

"Luffy, you wouldn't happen to want to sleep with me, would you?"

"?"

Rufu was taken aback, wondering when he had thought that way.

"Oh, how cute!"

Estella covered her mouth with her small hand and looked at Luffy with a smile.

Estella, who was clearly a little drunk, dared to say whatever she wanted!

At this moment, Luffy was also curious. He thought that if he took a picture of Estella's current appearance, he could send it to her tomorrow after she woke up.

I wonder what Estella's expression will be then.

Even if Luffy doesn't film it, when Estella wakes up tomorrow and remembers what happened tonight, she'll probably be blushing with embarrassment.

"Alright, Estella, let me help you to bed. I'll take care of things here!"
