Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Eating Vegetables Leads to Spring Fever [Please Collect, Please Recommend]"Young Master, you’re here. Where shall we eat?"
Xu Yi carefully carried out the steaming-hot boiled cabbage and came out.
"Let’s just eat here, there’s no room inside."
Lu Xiaobu waved his hand.
Zhang Meng immediately volunteered to move the tables and chairs outside.
Lu Xiaobu rubbed his hands together and sat down.
"Young Master, please." Xu Yi set down the dish and opened the lid.
Instantly, a delicate cabbage lotus quietly floated in the soup that was clear as water, looking very simple.
The onlookers, seeing the boiled cabbage without a trace of oil, were all stunned.
"Wow, it really is boiled cabbage! Exactly as the name implies."
"No way, I can’t believe Lu Xiaobu would eat something so plain? I wouldn’t even eat it."
"Exactly! It’s utterly unappetizing."
"..."
Lu Xiaobu waved his hand and said: "Xu Yi, give each of these classmates a portion."
"Yes, Young Master." Xu Yi immediately got ready.
"Everyone, sit down, sit down." Lu Xiaobu invited the Hungry Wolf Team to sit down.
Thanks to Xu Yi’s preparations in advance, serving boiled cabbage to over sixty people was quite easy.
Soon, everyone had a serving of boiled cabbage in front of them.
However, not a single student picked up their chopsticks, simply because what was in front of them didn’t stir up any desire to eat.
They also wondered—why would Lu Xiaobu serve them this?
Boiled cabbage?
If we wanted to eat this, would we need to follow Lu Xiaobu?
Could it be because he gave us too much reward before, and now he wants to save money?
Zhou Jingyuan was also puzzled as she looked at Lu Xiaobu: "Hey, Xiaobu, that’s not very nice. Even if you’d served two home-style dishes it would be fine, but what’s this?"
However, Wu Qianmin couldn’t hold back anymore, she fidgeted in her chair, unsure whether she should start eating first.
"Ahem." Lu Xiaobu didn’t mind them, he picked up a piece of cabbage lotus, stuffed it into his mouth, and blissfully said: "Mmm, even tastier than yesterday’s!"
Hearing Lu Xiaobu chewing, Wu Qianmin finally couldn’t stand it anymore: "I can’t take it!"
She threw caution to the wind, ripped off her elegant facade, and began eating her portion of boiled cabbage. Sёarch* The Novёl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Unlike Lu Xiaobu, who devoured hungrily, she ate the white lotus gently, nibbling from the outside in.
Immersed in the delicious food, she immediately ignored the glances from those around.
With every bite, she felt her soul elevate, intoxicated and blissful, a rosy flush of happiness bloomed on her cheeks like a ripe apple, tempting anyone who looked her way.
A low growl of satisfaction escaped her, she murmured: "Ah... delicious, even the second time it’s irresistible!"
"And indeed, it’s even tastier than yesterday, all the fragrance and flavor deeply embedded within the dish, bursting out only at the moment of tasting, straight to the soul!"
"It’s like, not flying for three years, then soaring to the skies in one go—a burst of exhilarating joy!"
"You’re right! Xu Yi, reward, five thousand!" Lu Xiaobu quickly nodded in agreement.
"Thank you, Young Master Bu!"
Xu Yi, hearing Wu Qianmin’s comments and Young Master Bu’s approval, couldn’t help but chuckle gleefully.
He didn’t sleep all of last night, meticulously figuring out how to make the soup more like plain water.
Now, this boiled cabbage really lives up to its name.
Unless you taste it, you won’t see any color or smell a hint of aroma!
But once you taste it, I guarantee it’ll make you swallow your tongue!
"Wow, Wu Qianmin, do you have to be so exaggerated?" Zhou Jingyuan was dumbfounded: "It’s just eating vegetables, why do you look like you’re in heat?"
Spicy talk, that’s just how she is!
But such frank words didn’t even slightly catch the normally shy Wu Qianmin’s attention!
"I can’t help it, I have to try it too."
Moved, Zhou Jingyuan, always a fiery soul, suddenly ripped off her mask and picked up the cabbage lotus.
Next second.
"Ah... Delicious, so delicious! I can’t take it anymore!"
Yes, Zhou Jingyuan has gone crazy too!
Now everyone’s eyes went wide. They hadn’t paid much attention with the masks on, but now both lovely faces were revealed, one plump and one skinny, complemented by those extremely seductive expressions, it made countless men secretly swallow their saliva.
A bowl of boiled cabbage can make someone react like this?
"Damn it, who cares, I can’t stand it anymore, I need to try it."
Among the students, Li Qiang was the first who couldn’t take it anymore, he pulled down his mask and began to taste the boiled cabbage.
"Oh my God! How is this possible? How can it be so delicious!? I can’t take it anymore!" Li Qiang also got lost in the flavors.
But he didn’t have the same meticulous tasting idea like Wu Qianmin or Zhou Jingyuan, instead, he wolfed it down like Lu Xiaobu, not even leaving the soup behind.
After finishing the soup, he covered his mouth and dared not breathe for a long time, scared of letting that delicious taste escape.
Li Qiang’s action was like flipping a switch.
The lowlifes from Class 6 couldn’t take it anymore, one after another, they ripped off their masks and started eating.
And then,
"My God!"
"Damn!"
"Delicious, so delicious that I’d give anything for this dish! Thank you, Young Master Bu!"
"No, I ate too quickly just now, I didn’t savor it properly, I’m so regretful!"
"Damn it, I can’t take it anymore, I’m going to burst, my soul is trembling."
"Awesome..."
"..."
The male students were all cursing and expressing their excitement, while the female students were all moaning, expressing bliss!
Xu Yi looked at this scene and chuckled—
No one can resist Young Master Bu’s boiled cabbage!
Absolutely no one!
Young Master Bu is awesome!
People around were dumbfounded.
"Come on, does it need to be this exaggerated?"
"Yeah, it just looks like plain boiled cabbage, it’s not just for show right?"
"Damn it, I’m getting excited just by watching, is this even about eating anymore?"
"I have to try it too!"
"Chopper Chef, give me a plate too."
"Me too, me too, I want it as well!"
"..."
Xu Yi looked at these people demanding dishes, then turned to Lu Xiaobu: "Young Master, they..."
"Oh, if they want to eat let them pay for it themselves, remember to make the price clear to avoid any misunderstandings."
Lu Xiaobu, with cabbage stuffed in his mouth, mumbled— he could still recognize who was close and who wasn’t.
"Yes, Young Master."
Xu Yi quickly nodded—Phew, thank goodness the Young Master didn’t treat everyone on his own, otherwise, we’d lose money big time.
The bystanders hearing this conversation suddenly became agitated.
"Hey hey hey, what do you mean? It’s just boiled cabbage, can’t we afford it?"
"Exactly, exactly, we’ve even tried the Thunderstruck Golden Dragon cucumber salad that costs over a hundred, how bad could one boiled cabbage be?"
"Yeah, bring it on, what’s there to worry about?"
"..."
A fat man stepped forward, disdain written all over his face: "Tch, I can’t stand the pretentiousness of you rich folks. Come on, give Fat Master here ten portions. Who doesn’t have some change in their pocket these days?"
"You really want to eat?" Xu Yi asked seriously.
"Certain, absolutely and definitely," the fat man said.
Xu Yi was overjoyed: "Thank you. One portion of boiled cabbage is 998, ten portions total 9980, no bargaining. Would you like to pay by card or cash?"
"Pfft!"
The fat man spat out a mouthful of blood!
