Chapter 328 - Show off

Faang Ying pondered for a moment. This wasn't a place just anyone could frequent; even the wealthy couldn't afford to dine here regularly. Securing a reservation was a mark of one's social standing.

?Faang Ying had not only managed to secure a reservation, but he was also attended to by the general manager himself—a truly exceptional privilege. What's more, Boss Lee had gone out of his way to compliment him.

“It's my honor to serve our most esteemed guest,” Lee Dahai said, glancing at Su Ming. He was referring to Su Ming, of course, but Faang Ying mistakenly believed the praise was directed at him, which delighted him immensely.

“Manager Lee, these are my friends. Would you mind taking their order?” Faang Ying requested, lounging in his chair with a casual smile.

“Right away!” Lee Dahai responded with a grin, quickly approaching Su Ming and his companions. He presented three menus to them with utmost reverence.

Lee Dahai's deference was, of course, due to Su Ming's presence. Su Ming was the big boss, a man of mystery and formidable influence. The two individuals seated beside him clearly had a close connection with him. The young woman, in particular, was strikingly beautiful with an air of elegance about her. Her relationship with Mr. Su was undoubtedly significant. The young man next to her bore a strong resemblance to her, suggesting they were siblings. Lee Dahai was especially careful, considering she might be Mr. Su's girlfriend and the young man his potential brother-in-law.

Yet, Faang Ying was under the impression that Lee Dahai's respectful demeanor was all for him. He was sorely mistaken.

?Opening the menu, Faang Ying noted the steep prices. Nonetheless, it was a small price to pay to reflect his own prestige.

“Brother Su, this restaurant is part of a nationwide chain. There's one in the capital as well—I'm a regular there. Today, I wanted to invite you out as a gesture of friendship. Please, feel free to order,” Faang Ying said to Su Ming, beaming with barely concealed pride.

Su Ming offered a polite smile and perused the menu. This establishment was indeed a renowned Western restaurant with a reputation for its costly fare. Despite being part of a chain, this particular location had its own unique shares.

Su Ming scrutinized the menu and raised an eyebrow. “A fruit salad for 580 yuan?” he inquired, spotting the item on the menu.

?”Mr. Su, you have quite the eye for quality,” Lee Dahai said, eagerly promoting their products. “These fruits are grown on land our company specifically contracted abroad. We have experts monitoring the growth temperature, humidity, and climate for the vegetables and fruits. We adhere to very strict standards, discarding anything that doesn't meet them. Take these apples, for instance: they're sweet, low in fiber, crisp, and utterly delectable. Truly a modern-day delicacy.”

Su Ming nodded in agreement.

Faang Ying was even more pleased to hear this.

“If Brother Su is a fan, let's get him a salad,” Faang Ying declared with a smug grin.

?Su Ming couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

“How can this steak, at only 30 grams, be priced at 880 yuan?” Su Ming inquired, pointing to a steak on the menu.

“This steak has quite an extraordinary backstory,” Lee Dahai continued. “Our company owns a small island in the ocean with exceptionally high-quality pasture. We've established a cattle ranch there where the cows are given milk to drink, music to listen to, and massages for relaxation. The calves are slaughtered before they reach six months.”

“However, the cattle breed is rare, the breeding conditions are stringent, and the yield is incredibly low. Only a handful of cows meet our standards each year.”

“The beef's texture is tender, ranking among the finest. The chef sears the beef to a perfect medium-rare, delivering a charred aroma followed by the beef's authentic flavor.”

“It's a taste that lingers on the palate,” Lee Dahai remarked.

?”I'll take four servings of beef!” Faang Ying announced right after Lee Dahai finished.

?What did it matter if the dish was expensive?

He had the money and could easily afford it.

Besides, it was a testament to his distinguished status.

Faang Ying was thrilled.

?He glanced at Su Ming and asked nonchalantly, “Where do you work?”

Su Ming looked up from the menu and replied with a slight smile, “I'm in agriculture.”

Despite anticipating the answer, Faang Ying burst into laughter.

“Farming, huh? That's very down-to-earth of you.”

His voice dripped with sarcasm and delight in another's misfortune.

Xiao Chen and Xiao Ke'er exchanged a knowing glance.

Upon hearing this, Lee Dahai couldn't help but think Faang Ying was utterly foolish.

Su Ming offered a faint smile.

He glanced at Lee Dahai.

In that moment, Lee Dahai grasped the situation.

He took a few minutes to silently pay his respects to Faang Ying in his mind.
