Chapter 329 Who is the best?

The four of them stopped at Haishi Park for a stroll along the way, and by the time they reached Zhoucheng Village, the end point of the western route, it was already afternoon.

The three women, who had only grabbed a quick bite on the way, were already starving.

Upon entering the village, before even having a chance to experience the unique tie-dyeing, we went into a private restaurant on the side of the street.

The restaurant looked no different from the houses next door, and the interior was dimly lit and rather plain.

The front desk owner seemed to be taking a break, but upon seeing the guests arrive, he still began to serve them.

The task of ordering food was tacitly left to Jiang Yingzhu.

So she ordered a few local home-style dishes, and then the specialty casserole fish.

Since there weren't many people, their dishes were quickly served.

The few side dishes piqued the curiosity of Jiang Yingzhu and her two friends for a while, but in the end, they were drawn to the casserole dish placed in the center.

The moment the owner's aged, yellowed hands lifted the black pot lid, a wisp of milky steam rushed into view, followed by a rich, savory aroma.

This pot looks like it was just stewed from the shimmering steam of a lake.

The breathtakingly white broth, set against the black clay pot, resembles milk, with sesame oil floating on the surface like scattered gold dust. Emerald green cilantro leaves adorn the top like lotus leaves, while the prominent, enormous fish head stands out like a sandbar on a lake, making one's mouth water.

"Wow!"

Jiang Yingzhu didn't know what to say, and could only exclaim in amazement.

Mei Mengqian and Hua Junshu weren't as exaggerated as she appeared; their big eyes also sparkled with longing.

Even Li Yan felt that this scene was exceptionally beautiful.

The dishes looked delicious, but what was even better was the presence of three beautiful young women nearby.

He already had a good appetite, so he had an even bigger one.

Seeing their expressions, the boss smiled, told them to take their time, and left unhurriedly.

There were no rules, and once the dishes were all served, the four of them started eating without prior arrangement.

Li Yan first scooped out half a bowl of soup, along with some bamboo shoots, mushrooms, and tofu.

Jiang Yingzhu is a carnivore, and she picked up a piece of fish with her chopsticks.

The silver carp's skin was fried until golden brown, while the flesh was as white as tender tofu, glistening with the broth.

It looks delicious.

Therefore, Jiang Yingzhu criticized Li Yan in a pretentious manner, saying he wouldn't eat it.

"If you can eat, then eat more. Eating won't shut you up." Li Yan picked up his chopsticks and stuffed the bamboo shoot slices he was holding into her mouth.

Jiang Yingzhu found the bamboo shoots surprisingly good, but she still thought the meat was better and began to enjoy her fish.

Mei Mengqian, who had just scooped out half a bowl of soup and was about to drink it, turned to look at Li Yan with a serious expression.

"Li Yan, you won't eat it!"

"Then what would it take for me to eat?" Li Yan looked at her with a half-smile and asked with great interest.

Mengmeng took a sip of soup, staring intently at his chopsticks. "Anyway, you can't do it."

Li Yan stuffed the mushroom he was holding with his chopsticks into her mouth.

"Then will I still be able to do it?"

“Hmm,” Mei Mengqian stopped talking and lowered her head to drink her soup. As everyone knows, you shouldn’t talk while eating.

Hua Junshu had just tasted a few bites of the side dishes when he saw this. He glanced at Li Yan's bowl, then picked up the crescent-shaped piece of meat from the fish head and offered it to Li Yan's mouth.

Will I eat it?

"meeting!"

Li Yan blinked, ate the meat his senior fed him, and gave a thumbs up.

The older sister is better; the younger sister only needs to be waited on.

Mengmeng, who had just taken a sip of soup, looked up when she heard the conversation and stared wide-eyed at what she saw.

Is it possible to do it like this?

This is too direct!
Senior, you're so brave! What if Li Yan doesn't like fish heads?
Jiang Yingzhu had just been enjoying the fish and side dishes with her head covered. There was something that was said to be a wild vegetable with a slightly spicy flavor, which she thought would go really well with the fish soup.

Although she paid attention to the conversation, she didn't really care.

You're still thinking to yourself, "You're being silly. If you don't eat now, there won't be any left for you to enjoy."

He only looked up when Li Yan praised his senior's eating skills. Then he saw her pick up a piece of mushroom with her chopsticks and feed it to him. "So how good am I at eating?"

"Superb."

Jiang Yingzhu was stunned, feeling like her head was full of question marks and exclamation marks.

After thinking for a moment, she asked, "What about me?"

"You usually do."

"The unofficial list has been withdrawn!" Jiang Yingzhu said indignantly, cursing as she picked up a piece of fish belly meat and handed it to Li Yan.

"Tell me, do I know or not?!"

Li Yan accepted everything offered and ate the delicious fish maw in one bite, saying, "You're super good too."

Seeing that Zhu Zhu was also feeding Li Yan, Mei Mengqian thought for a moment, picked up a soup spoon, made some soup, some bamboo shoots, tofu, mushrooms, and a few side dishes, and then added fish belly meat, and put it to Li Yan's mouth.

The soup spoon was a small eating spoon, and Li Yan felt that Mengmeng had underestimated her mouth.

Her eyes were pleading; though she didn't say anything, her silence spoke volumes.

"Mengmeng, you're super, super good at it too."

The shop owner, who had been slowly walking away while singing folk songs, had originally intended to leave after hearing the young people's praise.

But after walking a few steps very slowly, I only heard a few people talking about how much they eat.

He turned around and his eyes widened immediately.

I saw that young man sitting there properly, with two girls on his left and right, plus the one opposite him.

They were all feeding him, just like a landlord in the last century eating, with maids serving him all around.

Besides, the teacup was right next to him, so why did he need to be fed?
Wiping his mouth?! His hands weren't even busy.

The boss was puzzled, assuming it was a couple with friends.

Or a wallet carrying three people.

After all, he had seen this kind of situation many times before.

But what is the current situation?
The three women were all very beautiful, and they were all trying to curry favor with that young man.

They don't seem to be short of money.

And what's there to argue about who will eat it?

All the good food was given to others.

When Jiang Yingzhu saw that the fish's belly was only bones, she immediately sobered up and gave up her title of "super, super, super good eater".

He sat down abruptly, ladled a spoonful of soup into his bowl, and opened it.

Seeing that Zhu Zhu wasn't being fed anymore, Mei Mengqian felt embarrassed to be alone, so she sat down and lowered her head to eat her own food.

Hua Junshu blinked, glanced at Li Yan, and opened his mouth.

Li Yan glanced at her twice, then at the food in his own bowl, picked up a spoon, scooped some out, and held it to her lips.

Seeing that the senior student ate it, she didn't ask for any more.

Li Yan thought for a moment, picked up a few dishes, and gave her a spoonful.

What amused him was that he hadn't been shy at all when the senior student had taken the initiative before.

This time, when I offered to feed her, my ears turned red.

It's fun.

Li Yan finished the soup in his bowl, then had another bowl of rice soaked in the soup, and decided not to eat any more.

He then picked up some food and began feeding his little classmate, his childhood sweetheart, and his senior.

The meal lasted quite a while, and as Li Yan was leaving, the boss suddenly pulled him aside mysteriously.

"What's wrong? Is there some food money that wasn't included in the bill?"

"No, no!" The boss waved his hands repeatedly, and only after seeing Jiang Yingzhu and the other two walk out did he quietly ask.

"Young man, do you have any dating tips? Can you teach me?"

Li Yan sized him up and said, "Aren't you already in your forties or fifties?"
Seeing his expression, the boss immediately explained, "I gave it to my son, who's already thirty and still not married, he's so anxious!"

"How about we ask him to buy some beauty serum?"
