Chapter 518

"Since they don't dare, let me taste it first?"

The middle-aged man looked at Qin Tian with anticipation.

Qin Tian nodded with a smile: "Sure, go ahead!"

"Alright!"

The middle-aged man replied happily, picked up a pair of clean chopsticks, stood up, and came over, impatiently picking up a mouthful and stuffing it into his mouth.

Under the curious gaze of the crowd, the middle-aged man's expression froze for a moment, followed by a look of excitement on his face.

"Delicious, too delicious! This is what you call Xiang cuisine!"

The middle-aged man praised exaggeratedly, looked at Qin Tian, and said: "Little brother, where did you learn this skill? Compared to this dish of yours, the food in this shop is simply garbage!"

Several chefs heard this and glared angrily.

However, the middle-aged man ignored them completely. While chewing the fresh, fragrant, numb, and spicy beef in his mouth, he asked with a cheeky grin: "Little brother, can I eat a bit more? I'm not full yet. Let me have some to eat with a bowl of rice?"

Qin Tian smiled and was about to agree, but the surrounding customers wouldn't have it.

"Uncle, you're too greedy. There are so many people here!"

"Exactly, exactly. Everyone gets a share. Are you planning to hog it all?"

"We want to taste it too!!"

A group of people rushed over, one chopstick after another, and the stir-fried yellow beef on the plate was disappearing before their eyes.

"Holy sh*t, this is too delicious."

"Really, this beef is so tender, it's absolutely amazing!"

"The uncle was right. Compared to this dish, what was that we just ate!"

"This is what you call fine food. Never mind tens of yuan, even hundreds of yuan, I'd be willing to buy it."

"I was originally very disappointed, but being able to taste this dish, today wasn't a wasted trip."

"..."

Without exception, everyone who tasted it said it was good and gave their praises without hesitation.

Several of the women looked at Qin Tian with somewhat fiery eyes.

If it weren't for his beautiful and cute girlfriend sitting right there, they would definitely try to take the initiative to get his contact information.

"Leave some, leave some. Don't grab it all. Just tasting it is enough. Let those few chefs taste it too, and feel for themselves where the gap is."

Seeing that there was little left in the bowl, the middle-aged man hurriedly persuaded the crowd who still wanted to grab another chopstick.

Hearing this, the crowd stopped their chopsticks somewhat reluctantly.

Like the middle-aged man, they also didn't like those few chefs and wanted to slap their faces.

Amidst the urging of the crowd, the head chef picked up a pair of chopsticks with a cold face, tasted a mouthful, and then fell silent.

Seeing this, the few apprentices also followed suit and took a chopstick, all looking at Qin Tian with disbelief.

At this moment, the few single ones seemed to understand something.

It turned out that it wasn't their learning to cook that affected their dating life, but that their cooking skills weren't up to par.

Or perhaps... they had worshipped the wrong master?

Thinking of this, the few looked at their master with somewhat complex eyes.

"Are you also learning to cook?"

The head chef suddenly looked up and asked Qin Tian.

Qin Tian shook his head: "No, I just like cooking at home."

"That's impossible!"

The head chef frowned and questioned with disbelief.

Qin Tian didn't say much, just smiled and shrugged, then turned and walked toward Xia Nuannuan.

"Nuan Nuan, is there any left for me? I'm not full yet!"

"Yes, I saved some for you."

Xia Nuannuan responded with a sweet smile.

"So, it really wasn't me picking a fight on purpose. You guys are in this business. I believe your cooking skills are more than just this, but you can't treat customers without heart!"

The middle-aged man looked at the few chefs and said earnestly.

The head chef glanced at him and walked toward the kitchen without a word.

"Master..."

The few apprentices hurriedly followed.

Seeing that the storm seemed to have subsided, the waitress breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sorry, this originally had nothing to do with you, and it scared you."

The middle-aged man apologized to the waitress with a smile.

The waitress shook her head hurriedly and tried to squeeze out a smile.

"Please let us pay the bill for our table!"

"Alright, please come with me."

After going to the cashier to pay the bill, the middle-aged man brought his wife over, said goodbye to Qin Tian and the others, and then left directly.

Fortunately, the stir-fried yellow beef Qin Tian made was delicious enough and went well with rice, so the four of them were quite satisfied.

When paying the bill, the boss of the shop had already arrived, and having learned what had happened, the boss generously waived the cost of their meal.

Qin Tian declined a few times, but the manager's attitude was firm, so he had to let it go.

After leaving the restaurant, the four of them walked back to where the car was parked, and then Qin Tian drove them to visit the most famous attraction in Xingcheng, the Youth Art Sculpture of the Great Man.

In the following days, Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan, led by Zhou Xian and the other, visited major attractions in Xingcheng, tasted all kinds of local delicacies, and took many good photos worth cherishing.

After having a final dinner with Zhou Xian and Xu Jiao, they prepared to part ways.

Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan planned to rest at the hotel for one night and continue to the next stop tomorrow.

At the restaurant entrance, Xia Nuannuan and Xu Jiao, who had become good friends, were saying goodbye to each other reluctantly.

"You guys can go to Jiangcheng to play in the future, and we'll take you around. It's not far anyway; it's very fast by high-speed rail."

Xia Nuannuan held Xu Jiao's hand and said with a smile.

"Mmm, there will be a chance."

Xu Jiao nodded with a smile and asked: "Where are you planning to go for your next stop?"

"We're planning to go toward Shancheng."

Qin Tian smiled and took over the conversation.

"That's great, there's a lot of delicious food there too."

Zhou Xian said with a chuckle.

"Yes!"

Qin Tian nodded with a smile.

"Nuan Nuan, if you see good scenery or find something particularly delicious, remember to take photos and send them to me. If we have a chance in the future, we'll follow your path for a self-driving tour too."

Xu Jiao looked at Xia Nuannuan with a smile and said.

"No problem, leave it to me!"

Xia Nuannuan agreed happily.

After the four of them chatted for a few more minutes, Xu Jiao and Zhou Xian hailed a taxi and went back, while Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan returned to the hotel.

After returning to the hotel room, the two of them lay flat on the bed.

Having visited for several days in a row, they had almost visited all the attractions in Xingcheng. They were happy, but they were truly a bit tired.

Xia Nuannuan took her phone, selected the best photos she had taken today, and posted a nine-grid photo on her Moments.

Over the past few days, she would post a similar Moments every day to share photos of their trip.

Therefore, for some better photo spots, she not only let Qin Tian take photos with his SLR camera but also had to take some with her own phone.

The photos in the SLR camera could of course be exported, but neither of them brought a computer, and they were too lazy to find an internet cafe to deal with it.

Soon, Shen Siqi, Tian Jiajia, and others liked and commented below, and Xia Nuannuan replied happily one by one.
