"I'd like three servings of takoyaki," Wen He said.
"Two portions, two portions are enough," Cheng Yudie corrected.
Then he turned to Wen He and explained, "Let me share one with you. If we each have one, we'll get full very easily and won't be able to eat anything else."
"That's true." Wen He nodded.
It was only then that he saw clearly how takoyaki was made.
It was fortunate that he saw it with his own eyes, otherwise Cheng Yudie's words would have made him subconsciously think in that direction.
"Open your mouth, ah~" Cheng Yudie said with a smile, picking up a small meatball with a skewer.
When she saw that she was going to feed her, Wen He blushed immediately.
"I...I can do it myself..." He looked a little nervous as he tried to take it.
"That won't work."
Cheng Yudie seemed to be deliberately teasing Wen He, not giving Wen He a chance to get it.
"Open your mouth quickly."
Wen He looked around at the bustling night market, her face turning red to the roots of her neck.
"Ah~" He opened his mouth slightly.
Cheng Yudie fed the meatball with great satisfaction.
"How is it? Delicious, isn't it?" She smiled.
This is indeed unexpectedly delicious for someone trying it for the first time.
After eating another one, he imitated Cheng Yudie and stuck a meatball in his mouth.
"I want to feed you one too, tell me, ah~"
"Hmph, I'm not as easy to bully as you, ahhh, ahh~"
Cheng Yudie gently opened her mouth, waiting for the meatball to be put into her mouth.
Just as Wen He handed the meatball over and Cheng Yudie was about to eat it, he suddenly made a U-turn and perfectly put the meatball into his own mouth.
Cheng Yudie: "???"
"Eat up!" He stared at Cheng Yudie, who looked completely bewildered, while still chewing.
"You're so mean! Where did you learn that from?!"
When Cheng Yudie realized what was happening, her face immediately flushed red, and she gently tapped Wen He.
"Why are you allowed to bully me, but I'm not allowed to bully you?"
Wen He looked proud, her upturned lips barely concealing her expression.
He finally managed to turn the tide.
"I won't stoop to your level," Cheng Yudie snorted, seemingly quite unconvinced.
After that, they bought roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), roasted chicken legs, cold noodles, and large chicken cutlets along the way.
"I'm so full! Everything was so delicious. No wonder everyone loves to come to the night market."
Wen He couldn't help but sigh.
Life can be so colorful!
"I just remembered, there's one more delicious thing I forgot to buy. Wait here for me a bit, I'll go buy it," Cheng Yudie said.
"What is it? I'll go with you."
"No need, I'll be back soon, don't worry." After saying that, she ran back to the night market without looking back.
Wen He watched her figure gradually disappear into the crowd, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
While waiting for Cheng Yudie to return, he also began to observe the people around him.
Under his careful observation, Wen He noticed a man sitting under a big tree.
There was no one around him, not even a light, and he sat there alone with his head down, the desolate environment making him seem very lonely.
"I'm back!" Just then, Cheng Yudie came running over happily.
"What delicious food did you buy?"
"Close your eyes, hold your breath, and use your taste buds to experience it; it's a delicious thing."
"Then why are you closing your eyes and holding your breath? Are you trying to feed me some weird stuff?"
Wen He is now quite vigilant.
He strongly suspected that Cheng Yudie had just been bullied by Wen He and was still resentful, so she wanted to get back at him by getting some strange thing he didn't know about.
"It's nothing weird, it's a surprise! It's really delicious! I promise I'm not lying to you!" Cheng Yudie said very sincerely.
"Really?" Wen He gazed into her eyes.
"It's true!" Cheng Yudie said without any modesty, her big, watery eyes meeting Wen He's gaze.
"Then I believe you."
Following Cheng Yudie's instructions, Wen He closed her eyes and held her breath.
Soon, a delicious food with a crispy exterior and bursting with juice was put into my mouth.
The more Wen He chewed, the more fragrant it became; the rich broth particularly surprised him.
"What is this? It tastes so good!?" Wen He opened her eyes, eager to know the answer.
"Ta-da! It's this stinky tofu!" Cheng Yudie announced the answer.
However, when Wen He saw the pitch-black tofu and heard the name, she immediately felt a sense of foreboding.
Then, when that distinctive scent wafted into Wen He's nostrils, his vision went black, and he felt like the sky was falling.
"Let me tell you, stinky tofu is a famous snack. Its production process is quite special, which means that not many people know how to make it."
"To make this, you first need to take a ladle of sewage from the septic tank and then add twenty rotten eggs."
"After stirring and mixing thoroughly, add a spoonful of swill, and... mmm... mmm..."
Before Cheng Yudie could finish speaking, Wen He covered her mouth, and she could only make "mmm" sounds.
Sometimes, having an overactive imagination can also be a mistake.
"Although I don't know how this thing is made, I know that what you just said is definitely false. Please stop talking now."
No matter how lacking in common sense Wen He was, she knew that the things she was talking about could never be made into food and served to everyone.
