Chapter 1087: Chapter 1087: Really Added a Ton of Vinegar
He said offhandedly, “If I ask them to co, who would dare not to?”
Those who don’t co don’t need to co to work either.
Rong Yan was left speechless, unable to find an opportunity to refute him. Indeed, if he insisted on having people from the Li Group co here for a al, who would dare to disobey him?
Especially soone like Gu Ming, who adored and followed him wholeheartedly.
Just then, the spicy and sour noodles were served.
The restaurant owner placed two bowls of spicy and sour noodles on the table, smilingly said, “Enjoy your al, call if you need anything.”
“Thank you.”
The owner withdrew with the tray, smiling again, “I told you no need to be polite, why are you still being courteous with ? Alright, I need to get busy now.”
Rong Yan moved the spicy portion in front of herself and pushed the non-spicy one toward him. She bent down and sniffed the steaming fresh aroma of the spicy and sour noodles, her eyes squinting with happiness, “Mmm, it slls so good. It’s the scent of hotpot seasonings, I haven’t had it in so long~”
She had been preparing for the AQ competition recently and also preparing to et Hanks Dina, which left her no ti to eat out, let alone spicy and sour noodles—a snack containing chili peppers that are unkind to the throat.
When she slled the familiar aroma again, Rong Yan’s appetite surged. She picked up her chopsticks and tried a taste. The tender and chewy noodles, with a rich spicy and tangy flavor, were so delicious she nearly swallowed her own tongue. Garnished with finely chopped green onions, the aromatic scent was overwhelming. Aside from the green onions, as Rong Yan stirred, she found underneath plenty of small diced daikon, a side dish rarely seen in high-class restaurants, which combined to create a flavor even more delectable than any filet mignon steak.
Rong Yan ate with her eyes narrowed, her curving eyes in stark contrast to the redness of her spicy lips. Even those who were not very interested in this kind of common snack would be tempted to try so, seeing her eat so heartily.
Li Shengxiao wasn’t very hungry initially, but seeing her almost wanting to swallow her tongue while facing the food encouraged him to pick up the chopsticks beside him and give it a try.
At the first bite, he furrowed his eyebrows, almost putting the chopsticks down.
It was so sour—
Rong Yan, who was enjoying her al, noticed he only tried one bite before putting down his chopsticks. Staring at his bowl of spicy and sour noodles with an expression of great suffering, as if trying to bore a hole into the bowl with his gaze, she found it amusing, and the allure of the noodles seed to fade, “What’s wrong? Why aren’t you eating? It can’t be that it tastes bad, that’s impossible.”
Li Shengxiao had no idea how to explain to her that his bowl seemingly had the vinegar bottle toppled into it. He pursed his lips and, with difficulty, took another taste, the sourness causing him to wrinkle his nose continuously.
Rong Yan snatched his bowl to have a try, “Let taste, what flavor is it?”
Taking her own chopsticks, she wasn’t the least bit disgusted that the bowl had been touched by soone else and naturally picked up so with her chopsticks to taste.
“Hisss—” After just one bite, her tongue was numb, and she quickly spat the noodles into a trash can nearby. Looking up in astonishnt, her eyes widened as she looked at him, “Don’t tell the owner mistook soy sauce for vinegar and added vinegar twice?”
It was way too sour.
Not just any sourness, but the kind that drenched the entire bowl in vinegar, so sour her taste buds were still tingling, affecting her normal sense of taste.
The owner wouldn’t normally make such a mistake; she must have taken her earlier joke seriously.
Rong Yan raised her hand, “I’ll ask the owner to change the bowl for you.”
