bet
Big Eyes acted quickly. In less than an hour, he brought the ten guests to the Lao Li's Restaurant.
It was already lunchtime, and many tourists had heard about the bet. Soon, the lobby on the first floor and the private rooms on the second floor were all filled with people. Some people even wanted Li Xingzang to make an exception and let them eat on the third floor.
Who doesn't know what they're thinking? Are they here to eat? They're just here to watch the fun! Boss Li righteously refused.
The special set meal had already been sold out, and the original dining area was used by Li Xingzang as the main area for this bet.
"I advise you to just admit that your medicinal food is just a scam." The troublemaker, seeing more and more people gathered, became more excited and said in a good way, "There are so many people here. If something really happens, you will be completely discredited. It's better to be nice now so that no one will give you a hard time."
It’s not that there weren’t some people who wanted to join in the fun, but most of the tourists were still sober-minded and felt a little disgusted when they heard him say that.
"You haven't even tried medicinal food and yet you come here to make trouble. What qualifications do you have to represent us tourists?" Chen Jingyi shouted dissatisfiedly.
"Yo yo yo, everyone listen to what she says, she keeps saying 'this this this'. It turns out that you are all in the same group!" Big Eyes raised his voice, with his eyebrows raised high, like a big cricket.
"You!" Chen Jingyi's face turned red with anger, and she felt that she had caused trouble for Li Xingzang, and she felt even more guilty.
Seeing that the little girl was about to cry, Boss Li quickly stuffed the small mochi into her mouth and asked with a smile, "Is it delicious?"
"Huh?" Chen Jingyi's eyes widened. "So what's been circulating online is true. Boss Li's desserts are truly delicious!"
Rumor? Li Xingzang had some doubts about what she said, but now was clearly not the time to ask. Zhu Wang followed Li Xingzang's instructions and distributed mochi to the onlookers, gaining another wave of goodwill for the restaurant.
"Everyone, we're gathered here today to see if the medicinal food at Lao Li's Restaurant is really, as this guest claims, harmful to the human body." Hmm? Why does this sentence come so naturally?
"To ensure the health of all our guests, our hotel has specially hired a professional Chinese medicine practitioner. In addition to conventional medicinal meals, we can also prepare appropriate medicinal meals based on each guest's physical condition. Now, let us invite Dr. Shen, who has decades of experience in consultation!"
Doctor "Chen" has a solemn expression and an air of immortality. He looks like a very professional and reassuring old Chinese medicine doctor.
"Tsk, stop trying to bluff me. Where can I find such an old man pretending to be a Chinese medicine doctor!" Big Eyes rolled his eyes in disdain.
"How can you talk like that, young man?" Doctor Shen's eyes widened in anger. "You're pretending to be a bullshit! Open your eyes and see clearly. What is this?!"
Wow! Two reds and two greens! All four signs! This is a top-tier Chinese medicine practitioner!
Although Big Eyes didn't know the value of these four certificates, he always had a good eye. Seeing the admiring gazes of the onlookers, he hurriedly said, "Alright, alright! Stop playing with these empty words. Can we get started?"
"Of course!" Li Xingzang invited the old Chinese doctor to the prepared long table, "Dear guests, who will come first?"
The ten people looked at each other. This was different from what they had just agreed upon. They needed to see a Chinese doctor first.
"Come on, I don't charge you." Doctor Shen said calmly.
He looked at the crowd around him with big eyes. It seemed that the old Chinese doctor was determined to see him. "It's okay. There are so many people watching. Don't be afraid!"
"Yes, I can also bear witness." A voice outside the crowd said with a smile.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound. Bright sunlight was accompanied by the snowy scene. A tall, graceful man in black was standing in the middle of it. The thin-soled leather shoes on his feet tapped against the marble like drumbeats.
"Hey, Xiaoyu is back?" a local aunt greeted him.
Who?! Smaller than?!
Some people in the crowd looked at each other, and another party of CP appeared!
Xiao Yu took out his ID and said, "I'm a police officer. It should be okay for me to be a witness, right?"
Big Eyes was obviously feeling guilty because of Yu Si Shi's appearance. These days, one certificate would be enough. The old man just took out a stack of them, so how could this one have such a heavyweight one?
Li Xingzang looked at him in surprise. Wasn't he playing with the little monster in the backyard? How did he suddenly turn into a human? Is he okay?
She had a lot of questions in her mind, but she could only swallow them and scanned his body. At least on the surface, everything looked fine.
Ahhh! Some people in the crowd's eyes lit up, Boss Li's eyes! Our couple is real!
"Come on!" A tourist took the first seat at the table. Doctor Shen pretended to feel his pulse. "Hmm...you often work overtime and stay up late, don't you?"
"Just say it like that. You're not fake, are you?" Big Eyes said, looking at the slight surprise on the tourist's face.
"I'm fake, and you're real. How about you just sit here?" Doctor Shen had kind eyes, but his mouth, full of corn, was incredibly powerful. "I'm going to talk about pathology and pharmacology. Can you understand me? If it's nothing, just stay quiet and take a nap."
"You--!" Big Eyes was so angry that he was about to step forward, but he saw the policeman casually raised his eyelids, so he had to give up.
"Next!" After writing down the required medicinal ingredients in the notebook, Dr. Shen waved his hand and became excited!
"Next! Next! Next--!" Doctor Shen seemed to be possessed by Watteau or Bian Que. He diagnosed the symptoms quickly and accurately, and his left-handed dancing was very much like a contemporary doctor.
The aroma of medicinal food gradually wafted from the kitchen. After all, people heard that Li Xingzang had made a bet with someone, so everyone from Baishan Bathing came to join in the fun, and Uncle Shi was personally in charge of the fire!
The boys and girls among the tourists stared at the handsome men and beautiful women who appeared, and their faces turned red.
"Wow, this guy is so cool!" A girl pointed at another tall and strong boss Li and said, "Wild!" Li Long's ears twitched, feeling proud, and looked at Baishan beside him proudly.
"The sister next to him is also very handsome! Ah~ I'm going to be gay~"
"Are they a couple?" "Of course, look how compatible they are!" "A wild man paired with a beautiful older sister, what a match!"
Li Long felt a little proud. He glanced at Bai Shan again and silently moved to the side.
"That, that!" Another sharp-eyed person pointed at the young man at the door, "What a contrast! The aloof young man with dreadlocks."
The sisters around them looked over and saw that the young man leaning against the door was a striking contrast. "That guy holding Ye Ye's hand is not bad either!"
"They all seem to be shop owners in Snow City." Someone remembered the promotional video of Snow City that Li Xingzang had filmed.
What the hell is Snow City?! How can there be so many eye-catching people?! From now on, we are the absolute supporters of Snow City and will not allow anyone to disobey this city!
The medicinal food was gradually cooked, and everyone's attention was attracted by the small pots and bowls brought out by Shi Er and others.
"We will pair different medicinal foods with different tableware, not only to ensure the effectiveness of the medicinal foods, but also to give you a better dining experience." Boss Li introduced them to everyone one by one.
major!
Many people were "bribed" by Li Xingzang's sweetness and friendliness, waiting to see the medicinal food work wonders and Boss Li get slapped in the face, but unfortunately, everyone's reactions after eating the medicinal food were very indifferent.
"Ha, I told you, this is a lie! You call it medicinal food! It's just a handful of medicinal herbs put in a pot and stewed with other foods." Big Eyes shouted hurriedly when he saw this.
Li Xingzang looked at him like an idiot. "Sir, this is a medicinal meal, not a tonic pill. Besides, do you remember what our bet was?"
Da Yan was visibly stunned by her question. Recalling the bet at the beginning, he suddenly realized, "You're kidding me!"
Yu Sishi took a step forward, looked at his raised finger, and asked with a smile, "Sir, what are you doing now..."
Big Eyes swallowed hard and quickly lowered his arm. "Even so, it doesn't prove that your medicinal food has no effect on people. Like you said, the medicinal food won't take effect quickly. Who knows, someone might get a stomachache in a while!"
Humph! He paid a huge price, and he still doesn't believe it!
His big eyes glanced at a thin man, who was the last customer whose pulse he had just taken.
"Okay, then let's wait another half hour. Whether it's good or bad, half an hour is enough, right?"
"snort!"
Li Xingzang no longer paid attention to Dayan. After a while, the other customers had also finished their meals. New customers kept coming to place orders, and she also had to serve them.
In an unnoticed corner, a thin man was looking at WeChat on his phone:
【What are you doing?! Hurry up and react!】
【Do you still want the balance? 】
The man was a little confused and looked around. Three or four of the ten people had left. Apart from him, there were only the others who were consulting the Chinese medicine doctor.
As if sensing his gaze, Doctor Shen glanced at him, and a hint of vulgarity inexplicably appeared in his sage-like smile.
"It's 30 minutes now. Everyone, are you feeling unwell?" Boss Li walked over and asked with a smile.
The other guests who had heard about this also looked over. There was nothing they could do; gossip was human nature. Besides, they hadn't been sitting around doing nothing for 30 minutes; the Chinese medicine practitioner there was certainly quite capable.
The few remaining "guinea pigs" all shook their heads, and among them, the thin man was the most moved.
"Very good, thank you all for your support. This is a small gift prepared by our hotel." Shi Si took out the dessert prepared in advance.
"Sir, you've lost the bet," said Boss Li calmly. "As agreed, you must apologize to our restaurant on your public platform account!"
Big Eyes was not convinced and glared at the man. Damn it, he took the money but didn't do the job!
"Don't look at him! My medical skills are not exaggerated." Doctor Shen smiled mysteriously and said, "Big Eyes, you too, if you want to be healthy, I'll give you a secret recipe!"
The old Chinese doctor waved his white coat and splashed ink with a wolf hair brush. Everyone looked over and saw that the paper was clearly written with: well-known Chinese medicines such as Eucommia ulmoides and deer antler.
Huh! Everyone looked at Big Eyes, and a vulgar atmosphere spread throughout the Old Li Family Restaurant.
