"Mr. Yang, please go ahead," the chubby monk said.
"Master Hui De, after you," Mr. Yang replied.
"Alright." Master Hui De no longer demurred and immediately reached out with his chopsticks.
But this time, he too heard a cough by his ear.
Master Hui De was momentarily bewildered, thinking that Buddha had become angry. Fortunately, when he looked towards the source of the sound, he realized that the cough had come from a waiter in the restaurant.
"Master, Boss Ma asked me to give you a message. It's better not to eat the hair growth cake if you can avoid it."
"Why?" he asked.
"Because eating this cake makes hair grow."
Master Hui De chuckled, "No worry, I am a monk who has already undergone tonsure."
"No, that's exactly the problem. You wouldn't want your hair to start growing again, right?" the waiter pressed.
It was then that Boss Yang finally caught on, "Hey, so the hair growth cakes this week are supposed to make hair grow? Boss Ma, why didn't you remind me?"
