Chapter 70: Qingyue Restaurant

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

These were children who grew up with money. As soon as they entered the private room, they ordered food non-stop. They ordered the most expensive dishes at Qingyue Hotel, which made Qiao Yue frown. It wasn’t because the dishes were expensive, but she felt that it would be wasteful if they couldn’t finish the food.

Before she was adopted by godfather, Qiao Yue was an orphan. She often had to fight with others for food. She had more money as she grew up but her habit of not wasting food had never changed.

Qiao Yu saw Qiao Yue frown and thought that she was afraid of spending too much money, so he whispered in Qiao Yue’s ear, “Don’t worry, we can afford it. Order whatever you like.”

Qiao Yu also grew up in a family like the Qiao’s, so he naturally didn’t understand what Qiao Yue was struggling with. Qiao Yue could only sigh and stop thinking about it.

Seeing that the other students had almost finished ordering, Qiao Yue also ordered two dishes out of courtesy. The dishes were not expensive, but they had Qiao Yue’s favorite flavors.

After hearing Qiao Yue’s order, the girls in charge of the event looked at each other. Qiao Yu broke the silence and said, “What are you doing? Do you want to eat or sing? Hurry up and get started. The Qiao family has a curfew. We must be home before midnight.”

The crowd became lively again when they heard this. Qiao Yu leaned over to Qiao Yue and whispered, “Little Five, tell me the truth. Did second brother not give you any pocket money? You really don’t need scrimp, fourth brother has enough money to treat you ten or even a hundred times.”

Qiao Yue chuckled helplessly. “Second brother gave me money. Fourth brother, I really didn’t order those two dishes because I wanted to save money. I only ordered them because I think I’ll like them”.

Qiao Yu looked at Qiao Yue suspiciously, his eyes filled with disbelief. No matter how good vegetables were, how could they be more delicious than the meat? Why did he not believe Qiao Yue?

Eighteen- or nineteen-year-old boys were at the age when they loved meat, so even if Qiao Yue explained, Qiao Yu wouldn’t listen. It would be better to wait until the dishes arrived.

Besides, how could she not know what was delicious at Qingyue hotel?

The dishes arrived very quickly. It didn’t take long for all the appetizers to be served. At first, everyone was still concerned about table manners. They were raised in prominent families after all. It was inevitable that they would pay attention to their image when eating. However, slowly, everyone felt that this way of eating was really not suitable for a class gathering. It was too quiet and a little depressing. At this time, it was up to the students in the class who liked to crack jokes.

A male student looked left and right, and seeing that no one was speaking, he stood up and said, “Today is our welcome party for Qiao Yue. Why is everyone so nervous? Everyone, just relax and have fun. Come, I suggest we have a toast.”

The boy’s words warmed the atmosphere, especially his last sentence, which made everyone raise their glasses.

Seeing that many people were having red wine, the boy continued, “Red wine is boring. I’ll switch to beer. If you don’t like beer, that’s fine too. We can also drink white wine. There’s enough alcohol to go around.”

After the boy finished speaking, people laughed out loud and jeered for the red wine to be replaced with beer or white wine.

The atmosphere gradually warmed up, and Qiao Yue and Qiao Yu clinked their beer glasses.

As more and more dishes were served, Qiao Yue gradually became familiar with the students in her new class. There was no other reason than the fact that the boy had dragged Qiao Yue around the entire table and introduced her to each and every student. Not only that, he also wanted to make Qiao Yue drink. The toasts came one after another and Qiao Yue had more than ten drinks in succession. When she returned to her seat, she couldn’t even eat a single bite of food.

The two dishes ordered by Qiao Yue were the last to arrive. Qiao Yu had left some room in his stomach for Qiao Yue’s favorite dishes. At last, they were served.

Qiao Yu looked at the two dishes with some disappointment. He thought that they would look spectacular, but they looked very ordinary.

Qiao Yue found Qiao Yu’s frowning funny. Although these two dishes looked ordinary, making them involved complicated techniques. Just like boiled cabbage at a state banquet, they shouldn’t be underestimated.

Qiao Yue used the serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of vegetable and put it on Qiao Yu’s plate.

“Try it. It’s not too late to be disappointed after you’ve tried it,” Qiao Yue said with a chuckle.

Qiao Yue reluctantly picked up the vegetable and put it in his mouth. In an instant, all his disgust turned into shock. It tasted fresh and elegant, and the fragrance was rich. Although the gravy was thick, it was fragrant and refreshing, not greasy at all.

The delectable taste in his mouth made Qiao Yu change his attitude towards vegetables, and he took a few more bites.
