Chapter 694 - Hot and Cold Tofu (1/2)

“Dinner time has arrived. Everyone, please enter,” standing at the door, Zhou Jia spoke with a bright voice.

“Yu Chu, here,” said Jiang Changxi the moment she entered.

“Ok.” Yu Chu nodded. Then, he placed his luggage and briefcase near the shelf before sitting down beside Jiang Changxi.

Ling Hong and Wu Hai both made way for them. However, Wu Hai still decided to take the seat beside Yu Chu.

The reason Wu Hai selected that seat was quite clear. After all, the memory of the Tangyuans he stole last time was still clear in his mind.

He was obviously looking for more chances to steal Yu Chu’s food.

“One Dongpo Garra Fish, one Dual-taste White Oil Tofu, one Salt Baked Chicken, one Braised Pork Cooked With Preserved Vegetable, one Dongpo Pig Knuckle, one bowl of plain white rice, and a glass of lemonade. That’s all.” The first thing Yu Chu did after sitting down was to place his order.

“Ok. How about you, Sister Jia?” Zhou Jia turned and asked Jiang Changxi.

“Give me a moment.” Jiang Changxi politely smiled at Zhou Jia before turning to look at Yu Chu.

“Since you have just gotten off a flight, I feel like it’s better for you to eat something bland,” Jiang Changxi earnestly advised.

Even Jiang Changxi who would normally not worry about money felt like Yu Chu was intentionally doing this when she heard what he ordered.

“Exactly. Braised Pork Cooked with Preserved Vegetables is quite bland,” Yu Chu said with a nod.

“I meant it’s better if you just order some vegetables,” Jiang Changxi said while gnashing her teeth.

“I see. Ok, add one set of Jin’ling Grass then. I heard this dish is very bland,” Yu Chu ordered after thinking about it for a second.

“Are you intentionally robbing me just because I am rich?” Jiang Changxi grumbled.

“It is very rare to see Director Jiang treating someone to a meal. Of course I have to order more,” Yu Chu earnestly explained.

“Forget it, I’m not talking about this with you anymore.” Jiang Changxi rolled her eyes. She didn’t really care about that much money. Therefore, there was no point in talking too much about it.

“Director Jiang, the dishes I ordered are only for myself. If you want to eat as well, order your own dishes,” Yu Chu reminded after seeing that Jiang Changxi wasn’t making her own order.

When he saw Jiang Changxi glaring at him, Yu Chu immediately explained himself, “I had not eaten anything as I was rushing to get onto the flight. After breakfast, I hadn’t eaten anything for an entire day.”

“You will be blacklisted if you can’t finish your food. Think again,” Jiang Changxi reminded, finding this funny.

“Don’t worry, Director Jiang. I can finish what I ordered,” Yu Chu nodded and promised that he would be fine.

“Ok. I want a set of Dongpo Pig Knuckle, a set of Jinling Prawn, and a glass of lemonade,” Jiang Changxi ordered.

“Ok. Please wait for a moment. It won’t take too much time,” Zhou Jia calculated the price and said.

Among the customers that had entered, Yu Chu was the first to order. After all, he had arrived with a luggage bag while the other customers were not in any rush. In any case, they were already in the restaurant.

Therefore, the first dish to come out of the kitchen was what Yu Chu ordered. It was the Dual-taste White Oil Tofu that he had been looking forward to.

“Your Dual-taste White Oil Tofu. Enjoy your meal,” Zhou Jia said after serving the dish.

“Thank you,” Yu Chu thanked and shifted his gaze onto the dish and tableware in front of him.

“Give me a spoon,” Yu Chu said towards Zhou Jia who had yet to walk far away. It was natural for one to use a spoon when eating tofu. After all, tofu would be hard to pick up using chopsticks.

“You don’t need a spoon to eat our tofu. You will understand once you start eating,” Zhou Jia turned and said mysteriously.

Before Yu Chu had a chance to say anything, Wu Hai who was sitting beside him spoke.

“Don’t you worry. Let me demonstrate how you eat this dish. It is quite easy to eat tofu using chopsticks,” Wu Hai said while reaching over with his chopsticks.
