Xie Yan quickly pushed another car and chased after them! "I'm sorry, it was my fault today. Don't be angry, I'll treat you to dinner to apologize, okay?"
Gu Bin stopped the car, turned around and looked at Xie Yan with a mocking expression, "You said it yourself! I'm going to treat you to a big meal today, I'll order all sorts of delicious food!"
Xie Yan: "Hiss! Are you sure you want to go this far? Let me tell you, if I get the chance, I'll get my revenge!"
Gu Bin: "Do I look like I'm afraid of your revenge? Anyway, no matter what happens in the future, I'm going to get my revenge today!"
Xie Yan quickly ran up to Gu Bin and walked beside him. "Hey! Are you even a man? A real man should have a broad mind. As the saying goes, a prime minister's belly can hold a boat. I believe in you. You're comparable to a prime minister. You're a man among men!"
Gu Bin was so angry he laughed. He was just joking, but since Xie Yan said that, he was determined to have the meal today! He smiled and said, "You're mistaken. I'm just an ordinary person, not as capable as you!"
After saying that, he turned around, got on his bike, and left!
Xie Yan: "Hey! Young man, why are you so hot-tempered? Can't you reconsider?" Seeing Gu Bin ride away without looking back, Xie Yan reluctantly got on his bike!
Ugh! You're so quick-witted! How did you manage to do it so fast? Don't you even look at your wallet? Can you afford it?
After arriving at the state-run restaurant, Xie Yan reluctantly walked over to Gu Bin, who was already ordering food there, feeling heartbroken.
Seeing Xie Yan's expression, Gu Bin was delighted; all the pent-up frustration he'd had all morning vanished! He felt so relieved!
Xie Yan found his happy expression annoying! She glared at him and asked fiercely, "Do you want to eat chopped chili fish head?"
Seeing his expression, Gu Bin was even happier, and said in a particularly irritating way, "I think it's you who wants to eat it!"
Xie Yan said expressionlessly, "Just tell me if you want to eat it or not. Why do you care if I want to eat it or not?"
Gu Bin chuckled, "Alright! At this hour, how about adding some spicy tofu, braised pork, and chicken stew with mushrooms?" He said, glancing at Xie Yan's expression as he spoke.
Xie Yan gritted his teeth, staring dangerously at Gu Bin. If looks could kill, Gu Bin would be dead already!
Gu Bin pretended not to see it and pondered, "What should we order for the main course? Should we order another dish?"
Xie Yan stepped forward with a smile and grabbed Gu Bin's hand tightly. "Are you sure you still want to eat? Hmm~" The threat was obvious.
Gu Bin hissed in pain, "Ouch! Fine, fine, I don't want that chicken stew with mushrooms anymore, okay? Look at you, really, is this how you treat people to a meal? You have absolutely no sincerity!"
Xie Yan looked at him speechlessly, "If you keep babbling, I'll just order you a bowl of dumplings! And how about I give you two punches?"
Gu Bin seemed hard of hearing, only catching the words "wontons." This wasn't the first time he'd heard them; they were supposedly delicious. He asked softly, "Are the wontons here good?"
Xie Yan recalled the taste of the last time she had it, "Delicious, spicy and numbing, tastes great!"
Gu Bin made the decision immediately, "Then we'll have this as our staple food!"
Xie Yan was about to say that he might not be able to eat, but then he remembered that he could pack it up! He had a lunchbox, so he packed it up to take back to his wife. "Okay, then I'll have two more servings of wontons."
When the dishes were served, Xie Yan was extremely satisfied. The chefs in the restaurants of this era were very skilled, and the food was delicious!
This chopped chili fish head dish is simply the best I've ever had at Xie Yan's dinner party, even better than the one I had in my previous life that incorporated advanced technology and grueling cooking techniques!
Of course, he was nervous the last time he ate at the brigade leader's house! Plus, he didn't eat much, so he had no idea what it tasted like.
The chopped chili peppers paired with wontons create a delightful combination of flavors, a true sensory delight. Xie Yan was so engrossed in the aroma that he wanted to devour his tongue, while Gu Bin was so engrossed in his meal that he didn't even look up, as if afraid that if he ate one less bite, Xie Yan would eat one more.
Even the most delicious food has its limits. Xie Yan ate until she was completely full and could no longer eat. Gu Bin across from her was the same. After eating a piece of braised pork, he couldn't eat anymore. However, there were still two-thirds of the braised pork left on the table, and the chopped pepper fish head was not finished either.
The main thing is that a big bowl of these wontons is so filling!
Xie Yan glanced at Gu Bin, "Do you want to pack it up?"
The young master, who had never eaten leftovers since childhood, didn't want to pack up the leftovers. It would be too unhygienic to take the leftovers home and eat them again! But physically, he wanted to eat them. Leftovers were a million times better than the food ordered by the educated youth!
So his brows were furrowed tightly, he was extremely conflicted!
Xie Yan didn't have his hesitation. He took out two lunch boxes from his bag (actually his spatial storage), and dumped two dishes into them, leaving Gu Bin across from him stunned.
"This, this, this!"
He looked at Xie Yan in disbelief, "You prepared this in advance?"
Xie Yan glanced at him sideways, "How could that be? I brought the lunchbox just in case, you know? Who knew you would order so much!"
Xie Yan originally intended to take both of them back, but seeing Gu Bin's pitiful appearance, she reluctantly asked, "How about taking one back?"
Gu Bin grabbed the lunchbox containing the chopped chili fish head with lightning speed. "I'll take this one. The braised pork is yours!"
He can take this back with him and make a bowl of noodles. Sigh! To think that he, the young master of the Gu family, has fallen so low as to fight over leftovers! It's heartbreaking!
No, he must write back to his parents and tell them how hard his life is here! We'll try to send him more good food next time!
Xie Yan didn't argue with him, and nodded, "Remember to return my lunchbox after you're done eating, and wash it clean!"
Lunch boxes are quite expensive these days. Xie Yan found these two at home when he left, after rummaging through his belongings.
He was feeling uncomfortable at the time, so he had to find something to make his parents uncomfortable too!
After finishing their meal, the two were planning to go back, but they were too full to be doing strenuous exercise like cycling. Gu Bin suggested that they take a walk to digest their food before heading back.
Xie Yan thought of the legendary scrap metal yard, a popular spot for protagonists to visit. Since he needed to digest his food anyway, why not go there and maybe find a bargain?
Although his luck has always been mediocre, what if? What if he gets a stroke of good fortune this time? Besides, there's this guy beside him, who seems to be the main character. If he's lucky, it wouldn't be bad to get a share of the spoils.
The thank-you banquet was not greedy at all; a bowl of soup was enough!
