Chapter 24.2 – Taste

“Is it okay to eat barbecue? There is a barbecue restaurant on Minguo Street that is not bad. I went there a few days ago,” Su Yan asked Bai Xingfan after thinking for a while.

One day, when the work on the film crew ended earlier than on other days, Su Yan wandered around the film city alone, and then she found a self-service barbecue restaurant, where the food was quite good.

Bai Xingfan: “Yes.”

The barbecue restaurant was located in the middle of Minguo Street. When they arrived at the restaurant, it was just in time for the lunch rush hour, and the restaurant was issuing numbers. After getting out of the car, Su Yan went to get a number, and she got number A67. There were still fifteen small tables in front of them.

After walking back to Bai Xingfan with the number sheet, Su Yan sighed. “I guess it will take forty minutes to get our chance, can you wait?”

Bai Xingfan: “Listen to you.”

Su Yan thought for a while and asked, “Then… shall we go around the film city? Anyway, there are many restaurants on this street, and if we find a suitable one on the way, let’s eat there, ok?”

“Yes.”

Afterward, the two casually strolled along this bustling, long street.

There were buildings that were built in the style of the Republican of Chain on both sides of the street. The ground in the centre of the street was inlaid with black tram tracks, and correspondingly, there were wires hanging in the air above. Many people were walking on the street, and some girls and children were taking pictures in cheongsams.

The atmosphere on this street was very harmonious, but Su Yan had been in this film and television city for several days as a worker, so her mood at this moment was completely different from that of those tourists who were laughing and taking pictures. Tourists were in high spirits, but she was indifferent and even felt that it was very noisy here, and she couldn’t help complaining to Bai Xingfan. “If you travel, you should choose the off-season; otherwise, you will go out to see people’s heads, and the photos are not good. The background is full of people. ”

Bai Xingfan: “Does Miss Su like to travel?”

“Of course I do.” Su Yan replied, “Your life is only a few decades, so you should go outside more often to see what the world is like.” While speaking, she suddenly saw a Sichuan restaurant across the street and walked towards the opposite side, asking, “Mr. Bai, do you like to eat Sichuan cuisine…” Before she finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from the middle of the road, along with a tram whistle. Bai Xingfan quickly grabbed her wrist and pulled her back forcefully.

When the green leather tram passed by, Su Yan could still feel the heat from the tram.

“What are you thinking about?” Bai Xingfan reprimanded her with a sullen face.

Su Yan was embarrassed and guilty. “I… patronised the restaurant.”

Bai Xingfan: “…”

Su Yan frowned and muttered pitifully, “I’m really hungry.”

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Bai Xingfan’s anger reduced a bit. “You have to watch the road when crossing the road!” he then said.

Su Yan nodded immediately. “I know, I was wrong, I will change.”

Bai Xingfan lost his temper completely and sighed. “What do you want to eat?”

Su Yan: “Sichuan cuisine.”

Bai Xingfan: “Let’s go.”

Su Yan: “Oh…ok.”

This time Su Yan paid much attention when she crossed the road and didn’t forget to say to Bai Xingfan, “No vehicles, let’s go.”

Bai Xingfan smiled helplessly. “Okay, little traffic pacesetter.”

Su Yan: ‘I can’t see that you are quite sarcastic!’

Although there was a queue at the door of the shop, they didn’t have to wait for forty minutes, so both Su Yan and Bai Xingfan decided to eat there.

When they sat down, they ordered food, and until the food was ready, Su Yan decided to order two cups of milk tea. She first chose a flavour she liked and looked at Bai Xingfan, gave the menu to him, and asked, “Choose what you want to drink.”

Bai Xingfan glanced at the menu and then rejected her. “No, they are too sweet.”

Su Yan: “You don’t need to add sugar.”

Bai Xingfan: “But there are creamers and essences, and the trans fatty acids contained in creamers can cause blood clots.”

Su Yan: “…”

Bai Xingfan: “Do you know that perfume will affect children’s intelligence.”

Su Yan: “…”

Bai Xingfan: “Little girl, you should drink less.”

Su Yan: ‘What do you mean? Are you saying I am stupid?’ She rolled her eyes in disbelief, and put the menu back. “If you don’t drink, I’ll order it myself! I’ll order two glasses, and I will drink it myself!”

Bai Xingfan wouldn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Su Yan did what she said, added a cup of strawberry shake to the shopping cart, and then placed the order with satisfaction.

Ten minutes later, a waiter called their number and led them into the store.
