Chapter 1346: Have a Feast
Gulping, Bai Qingqing held onto Curtis’s hand and said softly, “It’s too expensive. Let’s leave.”
Curtis’s good mood froze here. He put her on his lap and said calmly, “Go ahead and order. We’ll leave after the money is used up.”
Was it still not enough? He thought that it’d at least be enough to let Snow have her fill with whatever she wanted to eat. He didn’t expect that they wouldn’t be able to afford a slightly better meal.
How low were they on the social hierarchy? In a world without his care, how much hardship had Snow been through?
Curtis couldn’t bear to continue thinking about this. He picked up the menu that Bai Qingqing had put down, then said, “Hurry up. If you go back late, your parents will ask you for an explanation.”
Curtis still wasn’t used to the fact that females and males were on equal grounds. He still treated his mate as a precious female.
However, every child in the modern world was a precious treasure to their parents. This time around, he didn’t have any misunderstandings about this.
Seeing this, the restaurant’s waitress immediately walked over to take their orders, her eyes occasionally sneaking glances at Curtis.
He was really handsome. To think that a guy could sport red long hair so well. He looked really cool.
He treated his girlfriend well and was also rich. Gosh! Where did this high-quality hunk come from?
Bai Qingqing noticed that they were being sized up by an outsider and quickly got up from Curtis’s lap.
Bai Qingqing understood Curtis. Hearing him say this, she knew that they wouldn’t be able to leave unless they ate something here today. She held in the pain and ordered a few of the cheapest dishes.
She ordered a total of five dishes estimated to be around 1,000 yuan. Only then did the waitress leave reluctantly with the menu.
Very soon, the first dish was served. It was still the same waitress.
It was just a simple greasy back shrimp dish as if there wasn’t any seasoning at all. Bai Qingqing hadn’t had a seafood feast before and felt that it wasn’t worth it. She asked with uncertainty, “Is it just this?”
“Yes. For seafood, what’s important is to have them fresh. These prawns were caught from the sea early this morning.
Although she didn’t have any particular intention when saying this, Curtis put his own meaning into her words. Bai Qingqing didn’t wish to talk anymore, but Curtis asked, “Where were they caught from? Is the place close to the seas?”
“It’s from the nearest sea. Of course, it’s near. If our city wasn’t close to the seas, it’d be hard to sustain this restaurant,” said the waitress.
Curtis’s lips curled up, his thin but bright lips looking beautiful and mesmerizing like poppies. Even though poppies were extremely poisonous, people find it hard to not be fatally attracted by them.
Even Bai Qingqing was stunned for an instant. Curtis smiled. He had actually smiled. Hey, he looked really happy.
She then suddenly understood. Right! Curtis could go to the seas directly to hunt! Curtis could swim freely in the seas and have his fill!
The waitress was completely stunned.
In view that the waitress had given him a satisfactory lead, Curtis stayed in a good mood and didn’t hold the young female’s audacious gaze against her. He patted Bai Qingqing’s hand and said, “The dish is going to get cold. Let’s eat.”
“Ah, oh.” Bai Qingqing smiled and nodded. It was bought with money, after all. No matter how upset she felt, they mustn’t waste it. She immediately started eating.
This dish was really quite fresh. The prawns had a light taste of sweetness.
But so what if they were fresh? What kind of fresh food had they not eaten in the beastmen world? At the thought of how these things didn’t cost a cent in the beastmen world, Bai Qingqing’s heart ached. Her mood only improved at the thought that they had taken care of the problem of Curtis’s food.
Curtis was very satisfied with the food, and his brows relaxed.
“Not bad.” It was rare for him to give a compliment.
