843 An Enjoyable Meal

They were in full bloom, and as the breeze danced around, it carried the flowers’ unique scent into the room.

It was quite a refreshing experience.

Even the scenery here was better than the ones the Chunlai Hotel offered, and the service was phenomenal, too.

But everyone was starving, so they couldn’t really be bothered to taste the tea or enjoy the lotus flowers outside.

They settled into their seats, and the waiters began to arrive and fill their table with the restaurant’s specialty dishes.

The tempting aroma of food took over everything else. The dishes were all pretty basic, but they were presented in a very appetizing manner.

The group made quick work of washing their hands and started to dig in.

Sure enough, everything was delicious.

“This is really good!” Meng Yang exclaimed as he gobbled up another bite. “I’m sure the food here is far better than the ones served at that blasted Chunlai Hotel.”

Beside him, Lin Xin nodded her head in earnest. She took a particular liking to the Yuxiang shredded pork. She couldn’t get enough of it.

They also had a plate of braised eggplant. Although it was a regular home-cooked dish, it had a unique taste that could fuel anyone’s craving.

In the middle of the table was a huge plate of braised fish, which was even more appetizing than the rest.

Lin Xin filled up her bowl and ate bite after bite without missing a beat. She was so focused on eating that she paid no attention to the others at the table.

Qin Jing, too, found the food scrumptious, but she wasn’t as engrossed as Lin Xin and Meng Yang.

She glanced at the couple next to her with a wry look on her face.

Cheng Yan was fussing over Yao Tang as she ate, passing her pieces of tissue every so often. If he wasn’t doing that, he was picking out bones from a piece of fish before putting it in Yao Tang’s bowl.

“Not bad indeed,” Qin Jing muttered with a smile.

She looked away and plucked a piece of fish for herself.

Qin Rui grinned at his sister. “Right? You should come to Beijing every summer. I’ll book a private room in this restaurant whenever you’re in town. And if the results of your college entrance exams are good, I’ll hire their chef to prepare a banquet in your honor.”

“Deal! You’d better keep your word, Brother. No take-backs.”

Qin Jing was in a good mood. She picked up another piece of prawn, thinking that the evening had turned out pretty well, after all.
