"What was the medicinal ingredient you mentioned earlier?"
As Ji Yunyue watched the car stop near an antique market, her delicate eyebrows furrowed.
"Jade powder, the finest cold jade is best."
Ling Feng replied casually. Seeing Ji Yunyue still looking confused, he shook his head and patiently added,
"Jade is fine, and blood jade would be preferable!"
Ji Yunyue's eyes lit up. "Oh, no wonder you came here. This antique market has a lot of jade sellers, right?"
Then she shook her head again. "However, such things are quite valuable!"
"Yes, so I don't plan to buy finished products. I'll just open raw jade myself."
Ling Feng said indifferently, but instead of entering the nearby antique market, he headed towards a restaurant next to it.
Ji Yunyue was startled, then quickly followed.
"Where are we going?"
"I can go without eating, but can you? The parasitic eggs in your body will consume a large portion of your body's heat, so it's better to replenish your food."
Ling Feng said without looking back.
Ji Yunyue's pretty face flushed slightly. Ling Feng was sometimes very thoughtful.
He didn't say anything on the surface, but in secret, he had already prepared everything.
It always gave her a sense of surprise.
"This is Japanese cuisine, isn't it?" Ji Yunyue asked after entering the restaurant, catching a faint fishy smell.
It was the smell of fish.
There were quite a few people eating sashimi here.
Some even wore kimonos specifically to eat this, sitting there looking like characters from a Japanese drama.
However, Ling Feng was completely uninterested in all of this!
The reason he came in here was simply because it was closer, and Ling Feng's sense of smell was extraordinary.
He had a grasp of the smells here.
Ling Feng was not interested in the sashimi; he had eaten too much of it.
Ling Feng was only drawn by the smell of ramen from the kitchen.
What Ling Feng didn't know was that this was a relatively high-end restaurant.
Many people believed that Japanese restaurants only served high-end sashimi and thought eating ramen was beneath them. Those who held such misconceptions were the truly pretentious bumpkins!
"If you don't like raw food, you can have ramen, pan-fried dumplings, Tianjin rice..."
Ling Feng directly found a seat and had Ji Yunyue sit down.
Ji Yunyue had indeed rarely come to such places, so she was a little unaccustomed to the surroundings.
Fortunately, Ji Yunyue's psychological resilience was not comparable to ordinary people. Once she was seated, she ignored everything around her.
A waiter brought over the menu.
Ling Feng directly handed it to Ji Yunyue.
But Ji Yunyue politely declined, "You decide!"
Ling Feng nodded slightly and quickly ticked off several items on the menu, including Japanese ramen and pan-fried dumplings.
Ling Feng didn't pay much attention to the prices.
But just as Ling Feng finished selecting everything, a contemptuous voice came from a table separated by a transparent cloth curtain.
"Tsk, you can tell it's their first time here. Country bumpkins! This kind of woman only has a pretty face, no taste, no vision, no class!"
This remark was clearly directed at Ji Yunyue.
Immediately, Ji Yunyue turned her head slightly towards them and saw a man opposite the woman drooling as he looked at her!
This man was covered in designer brands and wore a Rolex on his hand.
Seeing Ji Yunyue look at him, he raised his eyebrows at her, smirked wickedly, and then placed his Ferrari car keys on the table.
It was a blatant display of wealth!
Ji Yunyue's delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she cast a disgusted glance at him before looking away!
The man was taken aback, then curled his lips and turned to Ling Feng. "Pretty boy, you can pick up a beauty even when you're this stingy? You can't even order a proper Japanese meal, are you even a man?"
Ling Feng had not looked at the two people beside them from beginning to end.
Especially the heavily made-up woman opposite the man; looking at her for another moment would ruin his appetite!
Ji Yunyue's eyes turned icy. Her man was not someone to be offended casually.
However, when Ji Yunyue saw Ling Feng completely ignore the two people beside them, she managed to calm her anger and chose to ignore them as well!
She also pulled down the cloth curtain beside them.
This way, the other party could not see their facial expressions.
"Tsk, what's so great about them? Brother Li, don't bother with them. Women like this are not good people. Unlike me, I only dote on Brother Li!"
The heavily made-up woman said sickeningly as she coquettishly addressed the man opposite her.
This Brother Li was in a bad mood because he couldn't get a beauty like Ji Yunyue. Looking at the surgically enhanced woman in front of him, he naturally felt displeased.
But having someone was better than having no one.
After all, women like this had some money that could be swindled!
"Salmon sashimi, sea urchin, tuna..."
Soon, Brother Li skillfully ordered, acting as if he frequented the place.
The heavily made-up woman opposite him's eyes lit up.
"Brother Li, you have taste. I just love eating sashimi like this. It's a bit fishy, and I like it even more. Brother Li..."
Brother Li chuckled dryly. He was just showing off with these things; the taste was acceptable, but he didn't particularly like it.
"Darling, as long as you like it. After we finish eating, I'll take you for a drive in my new car!"
"Brother Li, you're so good to me. I love you to death!" The heavily made-up woman spoke even more娇滴滴 (jiāo dī dī - tenderly/sweetly), as if she wanted to pounce on him.
...
Meanwhile, Ling Feng noticed the look of disgust appearing on Ji Yunyue's face.
He couldn't help but smile and shake his head. "What? Haven't you seen anyone so off-putting before?"
"I can't eat anymore!" Ji Yunyue didn't hide her disgust and looked like she wanted to get up and move to another seat.
Ling Feng reached out and grabbed her small hand, signaling Ji Yunyue to sit down.
"If anyone is leaving, it's them," Ling Feng said dominantly.
Ji Yunyue was stunned and repeatedly shook her head. "It's not worth you making a move for such insignificant people!"
"No need to make a move."
Ling Feng replied casually, then lifted the cloth curtain beside them. With a slight raise of his hand, the waiter outside came over.
The Brother Li beside them also quickly lifted the cloth curtain, staring lecherously at Ji Yunyue, looking as if he was about to drool again.
"Oh, Brother Li, why are you staring at that country bumpkin woman? How can this ignorant village girl compare to me!"
The heavily made-up woman began her sickeningly sweet act again, her gaze towards Ji Yunyue becoming even more venomous.
She wished Ji Yunyue would die right now!
Why should such a beautiful woman, who already had such a handsome partner, come to seduce her man?
She had finally found a rich second-generation heir, and even though he was a bit ugly, he was still edible.
Marrying into a wealthy family was within reach.
But she couldn't let Ji Yunyue standing in front of her hinder her future happiness!
Brother Li, being called by his woman, chuckled sheepishly. "Heh heh, I just want to see them make fools of themselves. This pretty boy will probably have the woman pay the bill later!"
