Chapter 61: Taste and Cold
“Boss Yuan, what kind of plants are you growing? Do they really need such precious watermelons as fertilizer?” Wang Meng asked the question that every customer wanted to know.
“You will know when the time is right,” Yuan Zhou said slowly.
“Can’t you reveal any information to me?” Wang Meng asked with a curl in her last syllable. The soft and cute voice seemed to melt the hearts of anyone who heard it..
For example, a man who had just entered the restaurant tried to help her. “Boss Yuan, say something, otherwise the girl is going to cry.”
“No, she won’t.” To such requests, Yuan Zhou would always reject them, even if she was a beauty that had many supporters. To treat everyone equally was Yuan Zhou’s principle.
“Er….Boss Yuan is still so unique.” The man trying to help could only give a cough, trying to avoid embarrassing himself further.
“Thanks anyway. It is supposed to be Boss Yuan’s business secret, so it can’t be helped if he keeps it under wraps,” Wang Meng said considerately.
Wang Meng’s considerate manner formed a sharp contrast to Yuan Zhou’s indifferent attitude. However, all the regular customers knew Yuan Zhou’s personality well. It was once said that geniuses had certain special privileges.
Nevertheless, Yuan Zhou was merely adhering to his principles. Even though he was strict concerning his rules, it did not seem to be a disadvantage of his.
“Boss Yuan, Egg Fried Rice.”
“One serving of Clear Broth Noodle Soup.”
“Egg Fried Rice Set and the Clear Broth Noodle Soup Set, one serving for each.”
In a short while, the restaurant was filled with various voices ordering dishes.
“Ok. One moment please everybody.” Yuan Zhou had gotten used to the chaotic ordering processes from different customers. What Yuan Zhou needed to do was to remember which dishes were ordered and the amount which the customers ordered. As for whom they belonged to, the owners would definitely claim the dishes after they were prepared.
Therefore, all those trifles were none of Yuan Zhou’s concerns.
As the restaurant started to get busier, Wu Zhou and Wang Meng, who ordered their dishes first, started to enjoy their meal.
“This is obviously at normal temperature,” Wu Zhou whispered as he held the cup.
Wu Zhou disliked heat, therefore, he preferred the cold. Hence, as long as his girlfriend wasn’t with him, he would consume icy cold food and beverages. In his eyes, watermelon juice without ice held no attraction at all.
However, the watermelon juice cost 88 RMB per cup, thus it was impossible not to finish it, not to mention it was from Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.
“Slurp”
Wu Zhou gulped down half a cup of watermelon juice. Instantly, the icy cold feeling and sweet taste filled his mind. A clear and comfortable feeling arose.
It might be because the watermelon juice wasn’t smashed to extract the juice, therefore it had no tiny pulp pieces inside like other watermelon juice, only fresh and delicious pure juice. Throughout the extraction process, the rinds were not grinded along the pulp, hence there was no taste of the rind, only the sweetness of the watermelon pulp.
As only the sweetest part from the middle of the watermelon was used, with a mere mouthful of juice it felt like the taste of an entire watermelon entering his mouth. Furthermore, it wasn’t any ordinary feeling, but a rich delicate taste that infused his taste buds.
The taste was simply too wonderful. Without noticing it, the cup soon became empty, leaving behind a dumbfounded Wu Zhou since he planned to drink it while eating.
“Judging just by its appearance, it looks good, right?” While holding the glass cup, Wang Meng started to show it to her audiences from various angles in front of her screen lens.
[I feel that the watermelon juice suits Meng Meng.] Dragon Laughing in the Heaven
[That’s right. The watermelon juice makes Meng Meng’s skin seem so white. I really want to give it a bite.] Full Flowers~Unknown World
[Hey guys. Is it the right time to take notice of such a thing?] He&Ro
[Ah, the wealthy guy comes. Let’s just watch and admire from the side.] Brother Monkey on Horse Ride
Afterward, the audience started to shift the topic away, making various remarks about wealthy people. Similar messages flashed through the screen. It was Meng Meng who tactfully helped the wealthy He&Ro out from those various bothering questions.
“This wealthy guy is already Meng Meng’s friend now. Hey, my friend. What did you mean by saying that just now? To take notice of what?” Meng Meng inquired what he meant after sticking out her tongue mischievously.
[Look carefully at the glass cup. Are there any differences compared to other cups? Meng Meng, try taking a sip, the watermelon juice is supposed to be ice-cold.] He&Ro
