Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
$u Yan could not help but laugh. Zhao Lili’s words really meant that she was treating her as a pauper. Her bossy and arrogant manner was exactly the same as the previous Wei Shani, No wonder they became best friends, because they had the same stench.
“Why are you laughing?” Zhao Lili raised her eyebrows and looked at Su Yan with a questioning look.
“I’s nothing, Since Miss Zhao is so kind, I won’t stand on ceremony,” Su Yan said with a smile.
After that, she took the menu and started flipping through it. A waitress stood by the side with an ordering device and looked at Su Yan respectfully. As long as Su Yan gave the order, the waitress would immediately respond.
Su Yan flipped through a few pages, she pinched her chin and nodded. “Yes, Miss Zhao is right. This is indeed my first time here. Their dishes look incredibly good, and their reputation is also very good. If I order a few more dishes, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
Hearing her words, Zhao Lili crossed her arms and said proudly, “No problem, order whatever you want. Since I asked you to come here, I can totally afford all your expense.”
As she said that, she looked at Wei Shani who was beside her and said, “Shani and I often come here to eat. We have eaten all their dishes, so you can order whatever you want. You don’t have to worry about the two of us at all. If we can come here anytime whenever we want, but you can’t.”
Su Yan smiled and nodded. “Sure, with Miss Zhao’s words, I have nothing to worry about.”
Hearing Su Yan’s words, Wei Shani also said, “Su Yan, order whatever you like. Their food is very delicious. Even if you order too much, you can still take it back, so you must not be polite.”
As she listened to Wei Shani’s words, Su Yan flipped through the menu. Her big eyes kept moving back and forth on the menu, but she did not open her mouth to order.
Seeing Su Yan still had not ordered any dish, Zhao Lili pretended to be considerate and said, “Miss Su, if you don’t understand or don’t know which dish to order, why don’t you ask the waitress to introduce and recommend some dishes to you? After all, this is your first time here, so you don’t know much
about the dishes.”
After that, she and Wei Shani looked at each other again. Their eyes were full of excitement, and they totally regarded Su Yan as a country bumpkin.
Su Yan’s expression didn’t change. She said, “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. Each dish has a very detailed description on it. Although I don’t have a high education, I can still understand it.”
Zhao Lili and Wei Shani were neither angry nor annoyed by her words. They just sat there quietly and watched her order the dishes.
After flipping through a few more pages, Su Yan finally said to the waitress, “I want a portion of Ginseng Sashimi, Secret-made Shark’s Fin, Sea-pearl Sweet and Sour Chicken Pot, Fried Truffle Duck Tongue, and an Old-fashioned Snow Coat and Bean Paste. Lastly, I want a portion of mushroom soup.”
$u Yan didn’t ask for too much, and she didn’t hurt Zhao Lili’s wallet too much. She ordered five dishes and a soup in one go. The process of making the dishes she ordered were very complicated, and the price was relatively expensive.
Zhao Lili and Wei Shani looked at Su Yan with disdain when they heard her order.
‘The waitress was very familiar with the dishes. After Su Yan finished speaking, she finished typing ordering device and asked politely, “Do you want anything else?”
Su Yan thought for a moment and opened the last page of the menu. She pointed at one of the desserts and said, “Give me three more of this. We’ll be much happier to have a dessert after dinner.”
‘The waitress nodded and quickly pressed the order button. Then, Su Yan turned the menu to Zhao Lili and Wei Shani. “I’m done. If there’s nothing that you like or want to add, you can order it.”
Wei Shani didn’t stand on ceremony. She picked up the menu and flipped through a few pages. “I want a Charcoal Roasted Foie Gras and Jasmine Flying Fish.”
Zhao Lili, who was beside her, also said, “Td also like a Red Wine Stewed Rabbit Meat, as well as one of your signature dishes, the War of Cuttlefish. That’s all I want. Thank you!”
Seeing that they had ordered so many dishes in one go, the waitress could not help but say, “Ladies, our restaurant advocates saving the environment and eliminating extravagance and waste. The three of you have ordered nine dishes and three desserts. Are you sure you can finish them all?”
Zhao Lili smiled and said, “It’s okay. Just place the order. It’s not like we don’t pay. This is my friend’s first time coming to your restaurant to eat. It’s really not easy, so we have to let her try more dishes. When she can’t finish them, let her pack them up for dinner.”
