"Of course. We said it'd be a surprise, so naturally everything had to be properly prepared." Su Ningwei replied with a smile.
Ye Chen drove, and soon arrived at the nearest, best-reviewed old-fashioned, long-established mala tang shop. After parking, they got out.
Even though it was not yet eleven, quite a few people were already inside ordering food.
Afraid of being recognized, Ye Chen and Su Ningwei put on hats and masks before walking into the mala tang shop together.
Inside, the distinctive fragrance of mala tang seeped through their masks and into Ye Chen and Su Ningwei's noses, instantly whetting their appetites.
"Order whatever you want." Ye Chen lowered his voice and spoke into Su Ningwei's ear.
Looking at the dazzling selection of ingredients, Su Ningwei whispered into Ye Chen's ear, "I want to try everything."
"Then we'll order one of each." Ye Chen replied with a smile.
They were not short of money now. As long as Su Ningwei was happy, Ye Chen would have been fine with buying out every ingredient in the shop.
Su Ningwei said somewhat embarrassedly, "We still have to go buy mala tang from other places later. What if we can't finish it?"
Although Su Ningwei's family was wealthy, she had never had a habit of wasting food.
"It's fine. I'll eat whatever you can't finish, and whatever I can't finish, we'll bring back for Big White." Ye Chen replied with a smile.
Su Ningwei nodded happily. "Right, there's still Big White. Then let's order. Mm, no staples—we'll just eat meat and vegetables. How about medium numbing and medium spicy?"
"Sure." Ye Chen answered. "Boss, one serving of everything, medium numbing and medium spicy, to go."
"Alright. Number 18. Here's your ticket. You'll need to wait a little while. Scan here to pay."
