Chapter 624: No appetite
After a few days, Xi Ting and Qin Yan were on a dinner party with Xi Ting’s friends. They went to a famous restaurant together. This place was under Nie Zhaoyang.
The married men would order a few dishes based on their wives’ tastes. There would always be some dishes that their wives liked to eat.
Qin Yan did not really like to eat fish and only ate it depending on how it was cooked. She only liked those that did not have a fishy smell. Among so many methods of cooking, she loved to eat the Sweet and Sour Mandarin Fish the most. This kind of appetizing sweet and sour taste was a taste that the others quite liked too.
Xi Ting then ordered some grilled skewers for Qin Yan, along with a Braised Crab in Fishermen’s Style. Because Qin Yan actually was not a picky eater. She liked to eat most things, so the other dishes that other people ordered were quite suited to Qin Yan’s tastes too.
Xi Ting picked a piece of fish for Qin Yan. This fish did not have many bones and almost did not have any fine bones either. But Xi Ting still picked out two pieces of bones after carefully examining the piece before putting it on Qin Yan’s plate.
As for the braised crab, Qin Yan liked to do it herself. And the taste in the crab’s shell was very rich and thick, so Xi Ting did not help her with it.
When Qin Yan picked up the fish, she felt a little weird. She had always liked to eat, but this time, she did not have any appetite. Qin Yan thought that it must be because she ate a lot of mini cakes before.
Luckily, fish was not very filling, so she ate this piece. Unexpectedly, the moment it entered her mouth, a strong, stinky, fishy taste spread out from the fish.
It was not that Qin Yan had not eaten this place’s sweet and sour mandarin fish before; it had always been delicious. When she tasted it back then, it had no fishy taste. She had eaten it in a few restaurants and the one this restaurant made was one of the best. But why was this fishy taste so strong this time?
She watched as other people ate it with no reaction at all.
Xi Ting saw her complexion and asked, "Why? Is it not tasty?"
