Chapter 196: Seafood feast
Back in the 21st century, Le Yao Yao often watched many ancient heroes fly in the air on TV. She was very envious of their abilities. Deep down, she hoped that one day she would be able to fly like those martial artists! How flashy would she be!?
Sadly, she knew it was wishful thinking. After all, humans weren’t birds. They had no wings, so how could they fly?
If so, wouldn’t they be bird people? Except, now, she had turned into a bird person! (tl: LOL)
(Author: *cough cough* excuse me…)
Le Yao Yao stared at her surroundings in awe as she flew by the sceneries. Currently, she truly felt like a little bird with wings. She was flying in the air; her wings was the man behind her.
Leng Jun Yu took Le Yao Yao wherever she wanted to go. Her wish was his command. They flew along with the breeze and chased after the gorgeous sunset.
At this moment, Le Yao Yao experienced a strong sense of exhilaration.
“Xiao Tu Zi, are you happy?”
“I’m happy! Prince Rui, I’m very happy!”
This was the first time Le Yao Yao had addressed himself as “I” instead of “servant”.
Right now, “he” had already forgotten his status. Soon, he will slowly accept him.
Thinking of this, Leng Jun Yu was very comforted.
Leng Jun Yu continued to fly Le Yao Yao everywhere until the Sun had completely gone down.
Now, night had taken over the entire sky. In addition, countless of diamonds twinkled over it.
Currently, Leng Jun Yu was holding onto Le Yao Yao as they stood at the tallest building of the Capital. If possible, Le Yao Yao would want time to stop here forever. Unfortunately, her stomach couldn’t wait any longer. It didn’t give Le Yao Yao any face as it began to rumble.
Despite the violent wind, it couldn’t conceal the sound.
Leng Jun Yu’s mouth curved upwards, “Hungry?”
“Mm.” Le Yao Yao awkwardly rubbed her flat tummy.
It wasn’t her fault. Earlier, she had vomited out her entire lunch. She wanted to eat again, but lacked the appetite.
By the time she woke up from her nap, she was already starving. However, just as she was on her way to the cafeteria, she was stopped by the kite incident. Afterwards, she was busy flying back and forth with the King of Hell.
The feeling was so awesome that it momentarily distracted her from her hunger. But now that they weren’t moving anymore, her tummy rudely reminded her.
“Alright, let’s go eat then.”
Leng Jun Yu carried Le Yao Yao and directly flew to the river bank of the Capital.
He was moving so fast that no one could see them. Even if they did, they would only see a black shadow passing by and assumed something was wrong with their eyes.
In a jiffy, Le Yao Yao and Leng Jun Yu had arrived at the entrance of a seafood restaurant.
Presently, it was the peak hours of dinner. There were many horse carriages lined up in front of the restaurant. They were filled with hungry passengers.
It was obvious that the restaurant was full. Le Yao Yao’s eyes were filled with disappointment.
When she had found out they were going to eat at a seafood restaurant, she was so excited. She hadn’t eaten a huge seafood feast since back in the 21st century. Not only that, she was starving. Strangely, her mouth was turning pickier and pickier. She didn’t want to eat chicken, duck, pork, or any meat. Instead, she only wanted to eat seafood.
So, the King of Hell brought her here.
Le Yao Yao had no idea that her current expression looked extremely pitiful. She was like a puppy waiting for its owner.
Seeing this, Leng Jun Yu chuckled and smiled, “Let’s go in.”
“Eh? But it’s full!”
Nonetheless, Leng Jun Yu took huge strides and walked inside. So, Le Yao Yao had no choice but to follow.
The moment they walked in, they were immediately greeted by the manager. The restaurant was so busy that he had to serve as a waiter too!
But even so, the manager revealed his professional smile when he noticed Leng Jun Yu.
“Good evening, Prince Rui. How many?”
“For two.”
“Perfect. One of the VIP client had just left. Please follow me.”
Seeing this, Le Yao Yao’s brows raised. Wow. Having power and money is so great! You don’t even have to line up to eat!
The seafood restaurant was situated by the river bank. The restaurant had two floors, and half of it was constructed on land while the other half was on water. Those who looked out the window could see the limitless West Lake. It was a stunning view.
Not only do customers get to savour mouthwatering seafood, they also had the opportunity to admire the dazzling night view. What more could anyone ask for?
While Le Yao Yao was deep in thought, the manager took a quick glimpse at Le Yao Yao. He was surprised that the Prince would be having a meal with a eunuch. However, since Leng Jun Yu did not seem to have a big reaction, the manager remained calm and collected.
Despite coming during its peak hours, the restaurant always goes above and beyond for their VIP clients.
In no time, there were over ten dishes presented in front of them. There were simmer-fried bass, fish steamed in broth and osmanthus flowers, prawn stew, meatballs with pickled vegetable and fish, grilled squid on iron plate, steamed crab, and all sorts of seafood dishes…
“Our last dish is our restaurant’s gem -Minced garlic oysters!”
Le Yao Yao was confused. “Aren’t they just oysters? Why are they the gem of this restaurant?”
Shouldn’t the lobsters and prawns be more expensive than oysters?
“In Heaven Yuan, there are very limited amounts of oysters available. Aside from the Palace and Prince Rui’s residence, we’re the only place that offers this in the Capital.”
Oh yeah. She cannot compared this to the 21st century. The food was quite different here. Who would’ve thought that oysters would be so valuable here?!
While Le Yao Yao was thinking, the manager suddenly smiled mischievously. “Prince Rui, please enjoy the oysters. Oysters are a great supplement for men.”
Le Yao Yao’s confusion could be seen on her face and the manager began to snicker. “Hehe, oh Mr. Eunuch, oysters naturally help men with that part of the body…..”
“Which part?”
Le Yao Yao was so innocent that the manager’s smile seemed very dirty in comparison.
However, although Le Yao Yao didn’t understand, someone else did.
Leng Jun Yu raised his handsome brows and stated, “I would like another order of oysters. Actually, bring me a total of three orders.”
The manager smiled knowingly as he excused himself. However, Le Yao Yao was still clueless. “Prince Rui, there are only two of us. Why would you order so many dishes? What if we don’t finish? It would be such a waste….”
“It’s not a waste.”
Then, Leng Jun Yu gave Le Yao Yao a fiery gaze.
Seeing this, Le Yao Yao felt goosebumps. For some reason, she felt like the King of Hell seemed a bit abnormal. The way he looked at her reminded her of the big bad wolf and little red riding hood…
However, Le Yao Yao didn’t bother analyzing Leng Jun Yu because her stomach was too noisy. Stuffing her tummy was her first priority!
So, Le Yao Yao picked up her chopsticks and began her feast!
As she ate, from time to time, her nose would be making snorting sounds.
“Wow, so good. This crab is excellent! And the prawn meat is so tender! Wahhhh!”
Le Yao Yao’s mouth was all greasy from eating, but she didn’t care.
On the contrary, Leng Jun Yu silently sat across from her. His long, slender fingers were elegantly holding a cup of wine. He was sipping on it.
After all, aside from being famous for their seafood, this restaurant was also very well known for their wine options!
Leng Jun Yu noticed Le Yao Yao was eating all the seafood dishes except for the oysters. So, he picked up his chopsticks and placed one in his bowl.
