Chapter 55 - I Heard Oyster Is a Treasure for Man’s Kidneys (2/2)

The lady boss’ gaze naturally landed on Wen Xinya gently, yet it felt as if she was sizing her up.

Si Yiyan replied, “Serve them!”

Just as the lady boss was preparing to leave, Wen Xinya turned to Si Yiyan and said with a wide grin, “May is the best time to eat oysters! Add a portion of lemon oysters to his order.”

The lady boss looked over to Si Yiyan with an even brighter smile on her face.

Si Yiyan gave Wen Xinya a quick doting glance. This rascal was scheming to take revenge for him making moves on her in the car just now.

After the lady boss left, Wen Xinya looked at Si Yiyan with a forced smile and said, “I heard oyster is a treasure for man’s kidneys. It will nourish the kidney and support Yang energy. It’s said that there is a small town in France where the men have to eat an oyster practically every morning. According to statistics, the men in the town are all very energetic and the wives all live a harmonious life. The male sex function can last until an average of 70 years old and above.”

Si Yiyan watched her speak with a straight face and could not help but laugh. “Are you reminding me to reserve my energy?” He slowly approached her ear and said with a soft laugh, “Don’t worry, I will definitely follow your suggestion in the future and eat an oyster every morning. I’ll reserve my energy and strength for the sake of our future… life.”

Si Yiyan’s soft laughter was like the sound from a Chinese zither, the Guzheng. It was sweet and sentimental, with a certain charm to it. Although he omitted it and did not say a word in between, Wen Xinya could guess that he was referring to the word “Marriage”. Her face turned beet red in a flash. Not only did she fail to tease him, but he also turned it around and used it against her. This sort of feeling was embarrassing indeed.

“Oyster nourishes Yin and blood, eating more will benefit your body.” Although teasing this rascal was really fun, Si Yiyan decided not to be too greedy.

Wen Xinya changed the topic hurriedly. “Have you been here before? The lady boss seems to be close to you.”

Si Yiyan explained happily. “My mother loves seafood. When I was young, my father brought me here a few times before.”

At this moment, the lady boss served the dishes. Wen Xinya looked at the food on the table-popcorn clam, spicy stir-fried crab, grilled big prawns with garlic, smoked salmon… All sorts of seafood that looked, smelled and tasted good. She was so in awe that she almost forgot to blink.

“Don’t just stare, hurry and eat!” Si Yiyan took a prawn and carefully peeled it.

Wen Xinya immediately took up a pair of chopsticks and stuffed her mouth with a slice of salmon. “The meat is fresh and tender and has such a smooth texture. This is tastier than the ones in a five-star hotel.”

Si Yiyan peeled two prawns and dipped them in the sauce before placing them on the plate in front of Wen Xinya. Afterward, he took a crab and started peeling it.

Wen Xinya accepted it straight away.

The lady boss continued to serve a few more dishes. Wen Xinya frowned and cried out, “Si Yiyan, just how much did you order! How can the two of us finish all of these?”

Si Yiyan explained, “The seafood here is great, and since there are very few opportunities to come here, I’ve ordered a little of everything for you to try. If you cannot finish, just leave it. It’s best for you to just enjoy the food.”

Wen Xinya furrowed her brows and said, “Si Yiyan, I heard that wasting food in army camps will get you punished.”
