Chapter 304: Showing Off and Being Disdained
In the closed private room, the only sound left was the dining noise.
The table was filled with a variety of delicacies, each dish was bright and plump, exuding an enticing aroma.
Lu Qingye tilted his head to look at Meng Chuyuan and said softly, "Would you like a medium-rare Beef Wellington?"
The inside of a medium-rare steak is pink and looks tender and smooth, but Meng Chuyuan has never tasted steak at this level of doneness. She is a little worried that she will not be able to eat it and it will be wasted.
Looking at the plate of steak, Meng Chuyuan hesitated for a moment. She raised her left hand, with her index finger and thumb less than a centimeter apart, and then said to Lu Qingye, "I want to try a little bit."
"I'll cut it for you." Lu Qingye took a piece of steak from the plate and put it on his own plate. Then he used a knife and fork to cut it into small pieces and handed it to Meng Chuyuan.
"Thanks."
The other three people saw the two of them interacting intimately and could only concentrate on eating the delicious food on their plates.
Li Yuchuan curled his lips, looking like he was not enjoying the meal. "I should have brought my family along earlier."
Jiang Yi sighed lightly and said with some regret: "My wife asked me last night if I could bring her along, and I said it's inconvenient for men..."
They had thought that this trip would only be with a few old classmates, so they had never thought of bringing their girlfriends along. But now they were sitting in a row, being force-fed dog food by Meng Chuyuan and Lu Qingye.
Meng Chuyuan ate the small piece of steak that Lu Qingye had cut for him. The puff pastry wrapped around it had a milky aroma and a crispy and delicious texture. The beef was tender and juicy, and it was filled with mushroom sauce and foie gras.
Maybe it was because of the doneness of the steak, Meng Chuyuan felt it was a bit fishy, but it was acceptable.
βIt tastes okay.β
Lu Qingye cut the steak into three small pieces, and Meng Chuyuan only ate one piece.
"Do you want to eat more?" he asked Meng Chuyuan.
Meng Chuyuan shook his head and said, "I don't want to eat anymore."
Seeing Meng Chuyuan shaking his head, he brought the plate back and finished the remaining two pieces.
As time went by, the dishes on the table were getting fewer and fewer. As everyone finished the dishes on the plates, they started to communicate with each other and the atmosphere became harmonious.
After the meal, two waiters came to the private room to clear the plates.
Seeing Meng Chuyuan's presence, the two waiters looked obviously a little excited. They stood next to each other in the corner and stared at Meng Chuyuan.
Zhou Shunyan looked up and saw the two waiters who had come in standing there without doing anything. He asked in confusion, "What are you two doing standing there? Clear the table."
"...Oh, okay." The two came to their senses and quickly cleared the dishes on the table.
When the waiter clears the table, they can still chat as usual, "Are you going to play ball this afternoon?"
Hearing Jiang Yi's question, Meng Chuyuan also joined in curiously: "Are you guys going to play ball this afternoon?"
"Yeah, do you want to join us?"
Meng Chuyuan: "What kind of ball do you play? Basketball?"
"I do have this plan... but it hasn't been finalized yet." Jiang Yi could tell from Meng Chuyuan's expression that she seemed quite interested in this matter, so he asked curiously, "Can you fight?"
βI can play badminton.β
In order to let Meng Chuyuan feel involved, Jiang Yi temporarily changed his strategy: "Badminton is also fine, we all know how to play badminton."
Zhou Shunyan became excited when he heard the word badminton. He seemed to have a sense of superiority and said confidently, "Badminton is good. I'm very good at it."
Meng Chuyuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Really?"
He puffed out his chest and said confidently, "Of course."
Seeing Zhou Shunyan trying to seek praise in front of Meng Chuyuan, Lu Qingye raised his eyes, his eyes full of contempt, and looked at him coldly: "Isn't it enough to have hands?"
