"Boss, another order of Honey-Glazed Grilled Ribs!"
Having not had enough of the succulent meat juices and tender rib meat, Tai Lei decisively decided to order another portion.
Zhao Yunsheng's face turned slightly dark, "Why are you eating so quickly?"
He was also tasting the Honey-Glazed Grilled Ribs, but compared to Tai Lei's robustness, his approach was much more refined. He was elegantly using his knife and fork to cut and eat. By now, he had only consumed less than a tenth of the dish.
"Hmph, since someone's treating, why not?" Tai Lei rolled his eyes.
Although he didn't really mind the ten Gold Coins, Tai Lei's behavior of pretending to be a spendthrift really got under Zhao Yunsheng's skin.
Don't be annoyed, don't be annoyed. Just wait for him to finish the Exploding Honey Badger Intestines.
Comforting himself silently, Zhao Yunsheng took a deep breath, and his face returned to calm.
Before the second portion of Honey-Glazed Grilled Ribs arrived, Tai Lei's order of Exploding Honey Badger Intestines was served.
Here it comes!
Zhao Yunsheng and Yu Hua's hearts skipped a beat. Their actions didn't pause, but they split a thread of their spiritual senses to observe Tai Lei's reaction.
"Oh, is this the Tin Foil Roasted Brain Flower? Or is it the Exploding Honey Badger Intestines?" Tai Lei glanced at the newly served dish, his eyes filled with curiosity.
In the time they waited earlier, he had already remembered the names of the three new dishes, but at this moment, he couldn't match the names with the dishes yet.
"This is the Exploding Honey Badger Intestines." Fu Ya hadn't left yet, so she immediately introduced it, "This dish smells a bit strange, but it's very delicious to eat."
"Hmm? There's actually a dish like this?" Tai Lei had by now caught a whiff of the scent of the Exploding Honey Badger Intestines, "It does indeed smell a bit odd. Let Senior Tai Lei give it a try."
As he spoke, Tai Lei picked up his chopsticks and picked up a ring of pork intestines, popping it into his mouth.
After a slight chew, Tai Lei's eyes lit up, "Wow! It's really delicious. Feels like it's not much worse than the Honey-Glazed Grilled Ribs."
He said and then proceeded to use his chopsticks to pick up one ring of pork intestines after another, eating them with relish.
Seeing Tai Lei enjoying it so much, a trace of suspicion couldn't help but creep onto Zhao Yunsheng's face.
He was sitting so close to Tai Lei that he could faintly catch a whiff of the aroma of the Exploding Honey Badger Intestines. Just like what Yu Hua had said, this dish did indeed have a strange smell. Considering its ingredients, having such a smell was quite normal.
But why was Tai Lei enjoying it so much?
Unable to hold back his curiosity, Zhao Yunsheng lowered his head, his lips moving soundlessly. He used voice transmission to ask Yu Hua, "Old Wood, you didn't lie to me, right? Why is Old Monkey enjoying this thing so much?"
Yu Hua's expression twitched slightly, and he responded using the same method of voice transmission, "The little girl wasn't wrong. This dish indeed tastes very good. If you don't consider the strange smell from the ingredients and the cooking process, it's a top-notch delicacy."
"How did you know?" Zhao Yunsheng raised an eyebrow, his gaze at Yu Hua carrying a hint of disdain, "Did you taste it too?"
Oh damn. Yu Hua's face twitched again, "At first, I didn't know what it was either. So what if I tasted it? So many people are eating it, and I'm not any different."
Tai Lei was eating quite quickly. During Zhao Yunsheng and Yu Hua's whispered conversation, he had already finished most of the Exploding Honey Badger Intestines.
Zhao Yunsheng decided to tease the old monkey a bit more, so he smirked and sent a voice transmission to Tai Lei, "Old Monkey, do you know what you're eating?"
Tai Lei scratched his head, "I don't know, I haven't had this before. It doesn't even look like sausages. There's stuffing inside, and it tastes damn good."
Casting a glance at Zhao Yunsheng, who looked like he had ulterior motives, Tai Lei snorted, "Don't tell me, I don't want to know."
(Huh?( Zhao Yunsheng was slightly taken aback. Why wasn't this old guy playing along?
Tai Lei snorted again, lowered his head, and popped another ring of pork intestines into his mouth, savoring it with relish.
Truth be told, chewing on this bready coating together with the filling, the taste was absolutely superb.
Even though he didn't know what the ingredients were, the fact that it could produce such a strange taste meant that it definitely wasn't something good.
But was there a problem with that?
No problem at all!
As long as Old Tai Lei didn't know what the ingredients were, he could enjoy eating it to his heart's content.
This was called "covering one's ears to steal a bell"! That Old Sparrow was smiling so cunningly. Just by looking at him, it was clear he had some mischief in mind. Did he want to see Old Tai Lei's embarrassment? Old Tai Lei had been clever since he was young. Did he think he could fool him? Muttering ambiguously, Tai Lei placed the empty plate aside, accepted the second portion of Honey-Glazed Grilled Ribs that Fu Ya brought over, and continued to feast.
Zhao Yunsheng had finished his Honey-Glazed Grilled Ribs too. However, despite how delicious they were, he suddenly felt that they were missing a certain flavor.
It's no fun.
How did this old guy Tai Lei suddenly become smarter?
Not seeing the expected expression of agony on Tai Lei's face after finding out the ingredients, Zhao Yunsheng felt like he had lost some luster in his life.
Soon, the Tin Foil Roasted Brain Flower arrived.
Opening the wrapped tin foil and pushing aside the ingredients with his chopsticks, Zhao Yunsheng saw the characteristic convolutions of a brain as expected.
However, at this moment, he felt a sense of calmness within him.
How did that saying go again?
Since life has lost its luster, then one must be bizarre enough in their ways.
So what if it's a brain? I, Zhao Yunsheng, like it this way!
Using a small spoon, he scooped up a spoonful of brain with the ingredients and sent it straight into his mouth without hesitation.
Hm? It really was delicious.
A gentle bite caused the brain to melt in his mouth instantly. The rich texture blended with the various ingredients, giving the different flavors that were initially like drifting water a solid foundation. The taste became multi-layered in an instant. It was a delicacy Zhao Yunsheng had never experienced before, causing him to slightly narrow his eyes.
The quantity of one portion of Tin Foil Roasted Brain Flower wasn't much, but with Zhao Yunsheng's habit of savoring his food, he could prolong the enjoyment for a long time.
On the other hand, Tai Lei sitting across from him finished the second portion of Honey-Glazed Grilled Ribs in three or four bites. Then, he shifted his gaze to the Tin Foil Roasted Brain Flower in front of Zhao Yunsheng.
"Is this the Tin Foil Roasted Brain Flower?" Tai Lei blinked, murmuring to himself. He casually grabbed a small spoon and before Zhao Yunsheng could react, he scooped out half of the brain.
"You!" Zhao Yunsheng snapped back to reality, his whole body trembling with anger. His Spirit power fluctuations were almost out of control, "Stop it!"
Seeing his beloved Tin Foil Roasted Brain Flower being scooped out by Tai Lei, leaving only half, Zhao Yunsheng felt like half his heart had been emptied.
This old rascal! Tai Lei brought the spoonful of brain to his mouth and blinked a few times. He spoke somewhat belatedly, "Huh? What did you say?"
"Ahaha, my apologies, old habits die hard. You know that, Old Sparrow." Tai Lei looked at the empty spoon in his hand and scratched his head.
At that moment, Fu Ya brought over Tai Lei's portion of Tin Foil Roasted Brain Flower. Tai Lei hesitated for a moment, dug out a quarter-sized piece from his own portion, and then with a bit more hesitation, he dug out half of that portion. He then placed this one-eighth-sized piece back into Zhao Yunsheng's bowl, saying, "Here you go, and you say I'm stingy, Old Sparrow."
Stingy?
Zhao Yunsheng stared at the small piece of ingredient in his bowl that Tai Lei had thoroughly stripped, and it was even coated with Tai Lei's saliva. He felt like his vision was darkening, and he was about to pass out from anger.
What a tormentor!
