I definitely bought her the fish.
But what they were selling were two steamed grass carp.
"I'm telling you, she can't tell the difference by eating it."
After Zhou Chu expressed his concerns, Gao Qinyi waved her hand confidently: "Even if you feed her carp, she might not be able to taste the earthy flavor."
How did you know?
“Although she is also from Liancheng, she didn’t grow up by the sea in the strict sense, so she’s not that sensitive to fish.” Gao Qinyi moved a little closer to him and said softly, “Last time we went out to eat together, she couldn’t even spit out the bones properly.”
Many children in Liancheng can spit out fish bones quite perfectly.
Back then, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't learn how to completely spit out a fish skeleton, and Gao Qinyi ridiculed him for a long time.
In the end, he spent two months' worth of saved allowance to buy fish for training before he barely reached the normal standard.
Although still not as good as Gao Qinyi.
Her tongue didn't look like a tongue at all; it was more like a specialized fishbone sorting machine.
How can a human tongue be so flexible?
One roll is enough to remove all the fish meat.
When he was a child, he watched science fiction movies and wondered if Gao Qinyi was sent by fish-eating aliens to conquer Earth.
"Since we're already here, let's have another meal."
Gao Qinyi had packed up the fish and was about to leave.
But in the end, she couldn't resist the temptation in the kitchen.
It smells so good! It has that fresh and delicious aroma. For a glutton like her, it's definitely something to devour.
"Didn't we just eat?" Zhou Chu couldn't help but complain.
"Then you can just sit here and watch me eat," Gao Qinyi retorted directly, waving her hand to call the waiter over: "One saury, please."
Upon hearing her say that name, Zhou Chu instantly lost interest.
The knife fish is a famous local product, especially the Pacific saury, which is the most plump and delicious.
But generally speaking, the more tempting something is, the more dangerous it is.
It's like a saury, with lots of hard, fine, and numerous bones.
Every year, many people get fish bones stuck in their throats.
Do you want it?
"No, thank you." Hearing her question, Zhou Chu waved his hand decisively: "Remember to give her a generous portion of the fish soup, and just give me two cornbreads."
Fish soup with flatbread!
It was to the point that Zhou Chuguang would drool just thinking about it.
On the contrary, Gao Qinyi looked disdainful.
Real men are meant to take on big challenges, but he's indulging in scraps here.
It's really embarrassing.
"Okay." The waiter nodded.
She looked to be a girl of about sixteen or seventeen.
Tall and rather robust, he also has the standard appearance of Qingcheng.
In comparison, the people of Liancheng are tall, but they are more slender.
Before long, a steaming plate of saury was served.
Moreover, the shop owner was clearly very thoughtful, even serving Zhou Chu a separate bowl of fish soup.
"This fish soup is boneless; it was strained slightly with a sieve."
A very gentle voice.
Zhou Chu always felt that the girl seemed to be watching him intentionally or unintentionally.
And if he were to look over there, the little girl would quickly turn away.
It must be an illusion!
Zhou Chu nodded and picked up a piece of cake.
Dip it in lightly and put it in your mouth.
The delicious flavor explodes instantly in your mouth.
The fish soup is arguably the most essential part of the entire stewed fish.
Because it has been stewed long enough, the fish soup has almost perfectly absorbed the flavor of the whole fish.
Moreover, since it is steamed, there is not much seasoning, so it will not overpower the main dish.
The pancakes were quite fluffy, with every pore filled with fish soup.
Take a gentle bite of the soaked area.
Zhou Chu felt as if he had transformed into a fish swimming freely in the deep sea, his body enveloped by the salty seawater.
It flows freely with the direction of the waves.
Making a fish is actually quite nice, of course, provided it doesn't end up on the dinner table.
The romantic underwater scenery, whether it was the mystery of the deep sea or the sunlight in the shallow water, all came into his view.
It wasn't until Gao Qinyi snorted that he was brought back to reality.
Did I just lose my composure?
After all, the young waitress was just there watching him and chuckling, as if she had seen something interesting.
Perhaps she lost control of her facial expressions.
But none of that matters. This fish soup is so delicious, it doesn't matter how exaggerated it is.
He took another sip of fish soup.
Unfortunately, I'm not well-educated, so all I can say is that it's delicious.
"Your fish is so fresh," Zhou Chu said to the young waitress.
"Of course! These fish were all caught by my uncle, and they must be cooked into dishes within two days at most."
The most authentic way to eat it is to catch it fresh and eat it on the spot, but since they are not at sea now, they don't have that option.
This is considered quite good, even within two days.
"Delicious." Zhou Chu gave a thumbs up.
"It's just that the fish is so delicious..." The young waitress said, her face inexplicably turning red, and her voice growing softer and softer.
This left Zhou Chu quite confused.
I just gave a thumbs up, I didn't do anything, so why did she react like this?
"Ahem." Gao Qinyi coughed softly, signaling him to bring his attention back.
"Ah~" Gao Qinyi picked up a small piece of fish and was about to put it into Zhou Chu's mouth.
It must be fish meat that she removed the bones from.
As expected of Sister Qin, she can identify her girlfriend with just a small gesture.
Zhou Chu opened his mouth slightly and ate the piece of meat.
Even if it has been picked, there are still tiny thorns inside.
This is one of the downsides of saury.
"Forget it, I'll just stick to the fish soup." Zhou Chu waved his hand, refusing the fish she offered him. "Fish soup suits me better."
The young waitress laughed again.
"You said your uncle caught this fish, so does this shop belong to your family?" Zhou Chu asked, continuing to eat the fish soup that had been soaking his flatbread.
“That’s right!” The girl nodded. After Gao Qinyi’s demonstration, her eyes clearly showed the kind of look she had when she saw an older brother: “This is the shop my dad owns.”
"It's a family business, not bad." Zhou Chu nodded, picked up a soup spoon, and scooped some fish soup from Gao Qinyi's plate.
Of course, he then endured another wave of mocking glances from Gao Qinyi.
"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you, be careful." Zhou Chu said while ladling out the fish soup, "If you get a bone stuck in your throat, I won't take you to the hospital."
Gao Qinyi looked like she wanted to yell at someone, but because she was eating fish, she couldn't open her mouth at all.
All they could do was silently remember this grudge.
The little girl stood to the side, watching them argue while secretly giggling.
Girls who smile a lot are usually lucky.
Zhou Chu took a bite of the pancake and thought to himself.
