Chapter 160: Chapter 160 Eat As Much As You can

“It’s an honor to meet you.” I only maintained the basic courtesy in the business world, neither humble nor arrogant. Liu Xiaosheng gave me his name and tried to see my reactions. But how would I reveal anything to him?

Liu Xiaosheng was even more surprised. A look of disappointment flew past his face like a meteor, taking away his confidence, “Miss Mo’s employee is indeed very talented. It’s no wonder that Fengchang is able to have its achievements today. It truly has many talented people.”

Mo Fei couldn’t agree more, looking at me with appreciation, approval, and surprise in her eyes. I didn’t know if she was acting or she was really impressed. At this moment, the waiter pushed the trolley over. What was slightly surprising was that the person who served us was actually the manager.

Before serving, the manager respectfully returned the VIP card that Mo Fei had borrowed from Dongfang Lianren.

I was not familiar with using silver tableware. After all, after getting used to using chopsticks, it felt very odd when I suddenly needed to use a knife and a fork. Moreover, the way they served the dishes was very annoying. It seemed like I had to finish one dish first before the other dish was served. Probably it was expensive, so they didn’t want to waste food.

When introducing the dishes, the manager still used French. Apart from Mo Fei, none of us was able to understand what he said. However, Mo Fei was ‘showing off’ his language talent ‘excitedly’, so the two young masters didn’t dare to interrupt it and ask the manager to speak Chinese. Firstly, they were afraid of ruining Mo Fei’s mood, and secondly, they were worried about exposing their own ignorance.

Rich people were always afraid of losing face, but Mo Fei was different from Liu Xiaosheng. After all, she was only rich in name.

I didn’t understand French, and even if I understood it, I still didn’t know how to appreciate the dish that had been served. So I only focus on eating.

Mo Fei was very thoughtful. Knowing that we didn’t understand french, she translated, “This dish is pan-fried foie gras, a famous French delicacy. It is known as the most healthy food and the best delicacy in the world. There is a saying that you can’t understand the French without eating French food, and if you have never tasted foie gras, then you never really tried the real authentic french dish. So Chu Nan, try this…”

“Hmm… not bad,” I put down the place in the shocked expressions of others and smacked my lips, “it is just that the dish is quite small. There were only two small pieces, I can’t really taste anything. . .”

“Do you think it is rice? And why are you holding the plate while eating? !” Zhang Mingjie finally couldn’t stand it anymore.

“You still need to cut such a small piece with a knife?” I smiled and scratched my head, “Oh, I didn’t eat at noon, and I am still very hungry. So I ate too quickly. I made a fool of myself. Hehe, I have never eaten Western food. I don’t know that there are so many rules.”

Zhang Mingjie saw that I ‘modestly admited my mistakes’, so he could only resist the dissatisfaction and jokingly said, “It’s okay, just pay attention to it next time, and don’t hold your plate while eating.”

“Chu Nan, you can eat my one first.” Mo Fei pushed her plate to me and said. At the same time, she also picked up the serviette and helped me wipe off the gravy from the corners of my mouth.

Liu Xiaosheng was both annoyed and jealous. He hurriedly said, “Mr. Chu can eat my food first.” Then he turned to the manager, “Could you please serve the rest as soon as possible? Thanks.”

Seeing Mo Fei handing me her drink again, Liu Xiaosheng finally realized that something was missing at the dinner table. So he quickly added, “Can you also open two bottles of 1982 Lafite? Miss Mo, can you drink red wine?”

If Mo Fei could drink, she would have already ordered it when she spoke to the manager. She looked at me. Only after I nodded, she suppressed the excitement in her eyes that only I could understand, and said, “I can’t drink much, but I can still taste it. It is said that this wine has good taste.”

The silent communication between Mo Fei and I fell in Liu Xiaosheng’s eyes, it made him even angrier. Then noticing that after I ate his foie gras, I still reached my fork to Mo Fei’s plate, his body shook, almost passed out on his chair.

If the speed of serving food earlier was like a snail crawling, then at this moment, it was like Liu Xiang running. It was so fast that the French restaurant, which valued the original flavor of the dishes and service highly, had suddenly become like a Chinese restaurant. Although I was eating as fast as I could, I still couldn’t catch up with the speed of them serving the new dishes. In just a while, the table was full of food with some dishes even stacked on top of other dishes.

Mo Fei and I were completely surprised. We didn’t expect that Dongfang Lianren’s VIP card could be so powerful. It had completely ruined the romantic atmosphere and noble temperament inside this french restaurant.

Because the dishes were served too quickly, and Mo Fei almost spent all her time translating what the manager said, Liu Xiaosheng and Zhang Mingjie couldn’t find any chance to speak to Mo Fei at all.

Originally I didn’t like to drink wine, but today was an exception. However, after I gulped a few glasses of red wine, I felt that the taste of the red wine was a bit familiar. I couldn’t help but curiously picked up the bottle and looked at it. Then I was surprised.

It was the same kind of wine that Dongfang Lianren brought when she first came to my flat! So it was this type of red wine. Although I had never drunk expensive wine before, I had also heard of how expensive this kind of red wine was, and it was produced in 1982…

However, in the eyes of Dongfang Lianren, Lafite was like an orange soda. It was really scary. . .

Snails, frogs, black mushrooms, escargots, and Coq au vin, all the dishes were delicious and appetizing. Especially the French snail, which was called the gold in meat. A special kind of tongs was used to hold the shell, and then a special kind of fork was used to remove the carefully processed meat from the shell. The fresh meat was wrapped in a creamy sweetness and dipped in a various selection of sauces, which was simply wonderful.

Perhaps a few minutes ago, Liu Xiaosheng would still think Mo Fei had ordered too much, but seeing how much I could eat, he changed his mind. Moreover, my extremely casual eating and drinking style had obviously affected Zhang Mingjie and Shanshan as well. After all, it was young master Liu who would pay the bill, so why not enjoy the meal as much as they could. Moreover, there were delicacies that they rarely had a chance to eat normally. Especially that Shan Shan woman, she finished her dish almost as quickly as me.

Because Mo Fei communicated with the waiter in French, Liu Xiaosheng didn’t know what Mo Fei had ordered, but as the dishes were placed one by one, his handsome smiling face gradually became stiff. Moreover, seeing the way we gulped down the food like there was no tomorrow, his brows and lips were constantly twitching.

When the manager put five caviar served on golden plates in front of everyone, Liu Xiaosheng finally couldn’t help it and blurted it out, “Caviar? Five portions? ! Serve on a big plate? !”

It was said that because this thing was too expensive, its price was measured by how much per ounce. But there were at least 500 grams of them on each plate. If the price of Caviar was really higher than gold, it was understandable why young master Liu’s face would turn pale. I was also surprised. ‘Damn, Mo Fei is so ruthless…’

“Why are the plates in a different color?” A few golden plates were suddenly placed on top of silver plates on a table, dazzling our eyes. I couldn’t help but ask with a smile, “Don’t tell me that they are really made of gold?”

Mo Fei put down the knife and fork and smiled gracefully. Although she knew that the manager understood what I was saying, she still asked it again in French. After the manager explained something patiently, Mo Fei said, “Yes. They are.”

There were probably only Shan Shan and me, two people, who had never seen the luxury lifestyle of rich people on this table. Hearing this, we almost spat out the food in our mouth, “Gol, gold! For real! !”

Mo Fei nodded and said, “French cuisine pays great attention to the choice of tableware, In their opinion, this is also an art. Originally, this caviar should be served on a smaller plate, but we ordered a bit more, so they used those plates instead. Because silver has an oxidizing effect that will destroy the unique taste and fragrance of the caviar itself, so they can’t use silver tableware. The manager said that caviar is called the soft gold in food, so it is most appropriate to use gold to hold it.”

‘Should I steal this plate after I finish eating?’ I thought shamelessly. Then I quickly shook my head to get rid of the nasty thoughts in my mind, looked at the crystal clear black pearls, and couldn’t help swallowing, “How should I eat this thing?”
