Chapter 31
The Jin family prepared a three-tiered cake, decorated with yellow roses. After cutting the cake, Jin Qiaochu played the piano, playing "The Blue Danube."
After the song was played, everyone applauded and said it was good.
The first dance was performed by Jin Qiaochu and her father, and then with her brother. Jin Qiaochu wanted to dance with Zhou Minlin, and Zhou Minlin did not refuse. They danced better than others, and their beauty was really eye-catching.
Xiao Shuang whispered, "I only knew Jin Qiaochu came from a wealthy family, but I didn't expect her to be so prominent. She's attracted to Zhou Minlin, and it really doesn't matter what his family background is."
While eating, people said that today's dishes were specially prepared by a famous chef.
Xiao Shuang said, "This smells so good, but it's too oily."
Wang Jiazhi said, "Yes, they actually fried the foie gras with butter. But this is much better, and it's better than pairing it with apples to make it less greasy."
Xiaoshuang saw her put the foie gras in the toast, tried it, and nodded.
Xiaoshuang is from the north, and eating raw food is unimaginable for her.
Zhou Minlin came over with three servings of cake and saw her teaching Xiaoshuang how to eat oysters.
"They're all edible. This one is very fresh and not fishy at all. Try it..."
Xiao Shuang said, "This is so soft. Isn't this what the most tender steak should be like?"
Wang Jiazhi said, "It's even softer than this."
"What's that like?"
"I don't know what it's called, but you have to fry it on top of another steak, using the heat from the steak underneath. Frying it directly in the pan will be too hot."
"I've never heard of this before."
Wang Jiazhi picked up the red wine next to her, took a sip, and frowned.
Zhou Minlin laughed in surprise and said, "Why aren't you sober?"
Wang Jiazhi shook her head and said, "I don't know."
Zhou Minlin shook the wine glass and said, "This is how you should shake out the sulfur in it, otherwise it will taste astringent and sour."
Wang Jiazhi suddenly realized why he always found wine so unpalatable. She was also curious why he always liked to drink red wine with every meal. It was not tasty at all.
Indeed, this is how he sobered up before drinking. No wonder, he always asked her to drink with him when they had dinner together.
No wonder every time she drank it directly, he would smile and look at her with a complicated expression.
She was also puzzled. He only ate Chinese food at home and had no interest in Western food. Why did he always serve Western food at his house? Because only Western food could be paired with red wine. He just liked to see her silly, drunken frown.
"Why is this person so boring!"
Xiaoshuang and Zhou Minlin looked at her, petrified with the knife and fork in her hands, the expression on her face changing rapidly, like an angry kitten.
