"No way."
Lin Zhou seemed not to understand his implied meaning. After finishing speaking, he calmly made cold noodles and asked if anyone didn't want to eat them.
"Eat them all."
After Ding Su finished answering subconsciously, his gaze towards the cold noodle stall owner changed.
"Dude, you can't keep setting up your stall here, or the security guards won't kick you out!"
As he spoke, Ding Su looked at the security guard in the guardhouse at the entrance. Seeing that no one was really doing anything, he couldn't understand it.
"Hey, let me tell you the truth, I own this office building. I set up a stall downstairs in my own building, who can stop me?"
As soon as Lin Zhou finished speaking, he saw Ding Su clutching his stomach, almost bursting with laughter.
"Dude, you've got some nerve, talking like that."
Lin Zhou knew this would be the case. Nowadays, people only believe what they see with their own eyes; no one believes them when they tell the truth.
"Okay, I have some connections, I got in through the back door."
This reason is clearly more acceptable than that of an office building owner.
Ding Su was overjoyed and patted Lin Zhou on the shoulder.
"Boss, you're so funny. Do you even have any business setting up a stall here so late at night?"
Ding Su recalled that when he first arrived, there was no one at the stall, and the owner was eating cold noodles by himself, looking very forlorn.
"I think so."
Lin Zhou looked at the guest in front of him, his eyes clearly saying, "Aren't you one of them?"
Ding Su wanted to explain that he didn't mean it that way, but he was defeated by Lin Zhou's gaze and could only laugh helplessly.
"Okay, make it extra spicy."
After a few lighthearted banter, Ding Su felt a long-lost sense of relaxation.
The high-intensity work meant that he never got off work on time.
Every time, I leave the office building exhausted and slowly ride my bike home.
The daily routine is repetitive and unchanging.
I was surprised to encounter something different after get off work today.
Even a simple cold noodle stall brought a different feeling to his life.
The ingredients for cold noodles are all prepared in advance, so the food is served very quickly. You can basically see cold noodle stalls on every street corner in the summer, making it a great place to start a small business.
Temperatures in the south are still quite high at the end of September; if it doesn't rain, temperatures are generally in the thirties.
It's arguably the hottest time of summer.
Even at 10 p.m., it's not much cooler because there's not even a breeze.
A bowl of cold noodles for a late-night snack is so comforting.
Lin Zhou mixed a bowl of cold noodles in less than a minute and handed it to Ding Su along with disposable chopsticks.
"Would you like to eat here?"
This week, the cold noodle stall also brought two sets of folding tables and chairs for customers to sit down and eat, which Lin Zhou had just remembered.
"May I?"
Ding Su took the cold noodles and looked around, but couldn't see a place to eat.
"Wait a minute."
After Lin Zhou finished speaking, he took out two small folding tables and a small folding stool from the tricycle. They were very practical and could be taken out and unfolded.
This experience of eating at a roadside stall right below the company building was quite unusual. Ding Su, a grown man, sat on a small stool and table, looking a bit cramped, but he kept smiling.
As soon as he opened the packaging bag, he smelled the sour and spicy aroma that had been wafting in the air.
The noodles, all the same thickness, were stained with vinegar and soy sauce, becoming moist and appetizing.
The bright red chili oil is very noticeable, coating all the noodles and ingredients and constantly emitting a spicy aroma.
He ordered extra spicy, and the whole bowl of cold noodles was glistening with red oil.
Not much sesame paste was added, but its presence was very strong. You could clearly see the sauce thicken, carrying the aroma of sesame and peanuts, which complemented the chili oil perfectly.
My mouth was already watering just from the smell.
Ding Su didn't rush to eat; instead, he took a picture first.
This is the first time I've ever eaten at a street stall downstairs from my office building, so I have to commemorate it.
Pick up a mouthful of bright red cold noodles with your chopsticks. It's coated with sauce and still dripping with chili oil. The closer you get, the stronger the sour taste of vinegar becomes. Then, open your mouth wide and take a big bite.
"Hmm!"
As Ding Su took a big bite of cold noodles, his eyes widened the moment he chewed.
What kind of noodles are these?
How come it's so bouncy and refreshing?
As Ding Su slurped the smooth and chewy noodles into his mouth, he could feel the noodles bouncing and tumbling in his mouth. It was completely different from the cold noodles he had eaten before. The texture was soft and fluffy, and it would break at the slightest touch.
The rich wheat flavor can be tasted even with strong seasonings.
The spiciness of the chili oil, the sourness of the vinegar, the garlic aroma of the garlic water, and the freshness of the seasonings create a very rich flavor that is perfectly spicy, numbing, sour, and refreshing.
The taste is also superb.
The chewy texture of the noodles, combined with the crisp cucumber and bean sprout shreds, is simply the perfect match.
The shredded chicken is the same; after careful chewing, there is no fishy taste at all. Every strand is flavorful and incredibly tender. Each bite is rich in ingredients and flavors, appetizing and delicious, truly unforgettable.
Ding Su ate with a beaming smile, radiating renewed energy.
He slurped the noodles into his mouth one bite after another, his mouth wide open.
The more he ate, the more delicious the cold noodles seemed. The side dishes really became side dishes; the noodles themselves were the main attraction.
It's icy cold, smooth and chewy, looks amazing, tastes fantastic, and is simply flawless.
Moreover, the chili oil is spicy but not pungent; it has a smooth spiciness that won't make people unable to swallow even a mouthful of spicy food. Instead, it adds a unique flavor to the food.
A touch of sugar enhances the flavor, makes the chili oil milder, and also helps the vinegar blend very well with the other seasonings.
The crushed peanuts clinging to the noodles elevate the taste of this cold noodle dish to another level. The crispy peanut crumbs, when chewed together, fill the mouth with fragrance.
