159: The Fragrant Carp Soup

The Fragrant Carp Soup

When the waiter downstairs saw this scene, he was so scared that his face turned pale.0

Although he was usually snobby, he still had some sense. He was really polite to the truly rich and powerful guests. However, he was very rude to the others. He would sometimes ridicule them. He had chased away many customers who came to town and decided to have a meal at Yuelai Inn. They didn't want this kind of treatment when they were eating.

This was the reason why Yuelai Inn's business had declined.

However, the waiter had the support of the manager, so he was not afraid of anyone complaining. Liu Qi was swindled too.

However, the waiter had done the wrong thing that day. He was very rude to Lin Yuelan. He didn't expect that this plain and unremarkable child was actually a friend of the young master.

Seeing Liu Qi being so polite and generous to Lin Yuelan, the waiter was so scared that he immediately asked for help from the manager.

Lin Yuelan was not interested in how Liu Qi would deal with the waiter.

However, Lin Yuelan was a little speechless when she saw the dishes being served.

This was because most of these dishes were either stir-fried or deep-fried. There was no other variation. Also, there was a lack of seasoning for all the dishes. The kitchen appeared to lack knowledge of using things like gingers and garlic.

'So is this the food served by the best restaurant in Ning An Town?' Lin Yuelan understood why Jiang Zhennan and the others were so willing to spend money to buy food from her when they first met. Their fight for the food last time with the village chief and her grandmaster also made sense now. 

Compared to her cooking, these dishes were practically tasteless.

For the past two months, Lin Yuelan had been cooking at home. She had never been to town. Therefore, she assumed that the food outside would not be that different from her own cooking. They might just miss out on some newer ingredients. However, the reality was they couldn't be more different!

For example, the fish dish didn't even have a single piece of ginger in it. It was incredibly fishy. How could it be delicious?

When the dishes were served, they began to eat.

However, when Liu Qi saw Lin Yuelan holding her chopsticks in the air and staring at the dishes on the table in a daze, he thought that Lin Yuelan had never seen these good dishes before, and he immediately found it funny.

His smile was not meant to be sarcastic. Actually, he was very proud. After all, his intention was for Lin Yuelan to clearly see the difference between Liu Jiayin and Lin Yuelan. In addition, this was also a test. He wanted to confirm once more whether Lin Yuelan had befriended his younger sister because of her status.

Liu Qi smiled and said, "miss Lin, why aren't you eating? These are the best dishes in the restaurant."

Lin Yuelan raised her head, and her clear and sharp eyes met Liu Qi's eyes. The meaning was unclear.

She sighed softly and finally picked up her chopsticks to pick up the stir-fried cabbage.

As soon as it entered her mouth, she couldn't help but frown. The cabbage was blanched in hot water and then fried with oil. It tasted bland and a little greasy.

When Lin Yuelan stopped moving her chopsticks, Liu Qi assumed she was frightened by the good food.

He immediately introduced another dish, "miss Lin, please have this steamed fish. This is the signature dish of Yuelai Inn. The fish is smooth and tender. The other restaurants can't make something like this."

Lin Yuelan rolled her eyes in silence. The fish smell was so strong, and it was actually Yuelai Inn's signature dish? What the hell?

How could this be called a signature dish?

Little twelve had always been by Lin Yuelan's side. He was like a quiet, invisible person. When someone insulted Lin Yuelan, he would stand in front of Lin Yuelan to protect her. Otherwise, he would never say a word.
