Stepped Over Her Vicious Stepsister To Become The True Bigshot! Chapter 157

157 Huale Restaurant
After school, Gu Man and the others took the bus to the restaurant that Xiao Xiao had mentioned in the morning.
After half an hour, they arrived at Han City’s pedestrian street. This was the most lively place in Han City and also the food center of Han City. As soon as they stepped into the food street, the fragrance of food lingered in the air.
Xiao Xiao waved her fat hand. “Follow me.”
With that, she squeezed into the crowd. Lu You was afraid that she would get lost and quickly followed.
Jiang Yi and Gu Man fell behind slightly.
Only then did Jiang Yi have the chance to tell Gu Man about his jade stone.
“Sister Man, I listened to you last night and went to a more formal jade shop to cut the raw stone. That person saw my stone and teased me, telling me not to waste the cutting fees. Fortunately, I believed you and insisted, Sister Man. Guess what happened?” Jiang Yi said mysteriously.
However, before Gu Man could answer, he couldn’t help but say it himself. He even gestured with his hand. “The cutter has only cut a little, and there’s already jade. It’s so green and beautiful! You didn’t see those people who were mocking me. All of them are like stunned geese. I feel relieved just looking at them.”
As Jiang Yi spoke, he laughed out loud, as if he was about to slap his thigh and laugh hysterically the next moment.
“Calm down!” Gu Man glanced at Jiang Yi.
“I want to be calm too, but I can’t control myself. I’ve been excited since last night. I’ve been woken up by laughter.”
Gu Man looked at him as if he was a monster.
Jiang Yi saw that Gu Man did not believe him. He nodded solemnly. “I really woke up smiling.”
Alright, it seemed normal for this to happen to Jiang Yi.
Seeing that Gu Man and Xiao Xiao were already behind, Lu You quickly pulled Xiao Xiao back. “Why are you walking so quickly? Wait for Brother Yi and Gu Man.”
When Gu Man caught up, Lu You said angrily, “What are you guys doing behind? Why are you walking so slowly?”
Jiang Yi rolled his eyes at him. “Why are you leaving so quickly? Are you afraid that the meal won’t go down your throat?”
“What are you whispering about behind my back? You won’t say anything bad about me, right?” Xiao Xiao looked at Gu Man and Jiang Yi suspiciously.
“Foodie! Hurry up and lead the way,” Jiang Yi urged.
Xiao Xiao smiled and pointed to a restaurant in front. “That’s it. Huale Restaurant.”
Huale Restaurant was facing the street. From the French windows, one could see people coming and going on the pedestrian street outside.
Gu Man and the other three picked a seat by the window.
Xiao Xiao started to praise the restaurant again. “Fortunately, we came early. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be any seats. Don’t think that this restaurant looks ordinary on the surface. This is a hundred-year-old restaurant. Even if it’s very popular, the boss won’t open a separate branch. Let me tell you, even celebrities will come here to eat.”
Then, Xiao Xiao started counting on her fingers. “My favorite actress, Miss Yuri, came. My favorite actor, Brother Zhen Rong, came. And…”
Jiang Yi quickly interrupted her. “Alright, alright. Stop counting. You can’t stop talking about celebrities.”
Jiang Yi picked up the menu on the table and said to Gu Man, “Look at what you like.”
Gu Man took the menu and asked, “Can you all eat spicy food?”
Seeing the three of them nod, Gu Man said, “Then I’ll order the spicy stir-fried prawns. You guys can take care of the rest.”
“Let this foodie Xiao Xiao order the rest. She definitely knows the most authentic dishes.”
After hearing Jiang Yi’s words, Xiao Xiao started to order until Lu You stopped her. “Xiao Xiao, you ordered six in one go. That’s enough.”
Xiao Xiao smiled in embarrassment and said, “Hehe, I think every dish is delicious.”
Gu Man looked at Xiao Xiao and smiled. “We can come again next time.”
“Okay, the next time we encounter a happy occasion, we’ll come here to celebrate.” Xiao Xiao started to look forward to it.
“Don’t be full of yourself. There will only be a next time when we all say that it’s delicious,” Jiang Yi said coldly.
Xiao Xiao patted her chest. “Don’t worry, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied!”
After the food was served, Xiao Xiao picked up a lion head and placed it in her mouth. As she ate, she said, “Delicious, delicious!”
Gu Man picked up a stir-fried prawn. It was crispy and fresh. It was indeed not bad.
