The waiter should cover the cup after filling it with water.
Be careful, never put the lid button on the desktop or coffee table, which is neither hygienic nor polite. If the guest is found to put the cup on the table or coffee table, the waiter should immediately pour it, put it on the tray and cover the cup.
