Chapter 342 - 341 Dress More Solemnly
Guan He indeed didn’t disappoint him, speaking with an offhand tone, "Aside from not having had yam stir-fried with wood ear mushrooms, I’ve had all the other dishes." His pride and show-off were not concealed in the slightest.
Everyone’s eyes shifted to Guan He. With this guy’s personality, if he weren’t exceptionally skilled in martial arts, wouldn’t he have been beaten to death already?
Wong Qiao followed Ye Xinyan’s instructions, keeping his head down and focusing on his meal, paying no mind to anyone else. Just like Ye Zi said, when immortals fight, carelessness spells disaster for the lesser spirits, so reducing one’s presence was never wrong.
Moreover, although he had occasionally had these dishes before, it was just one dish paired with an elaborate meal, nothing like the concentrated experience of today. And the food served today was obviously prepared with more care, tasting exceptionally good.
Wong Qiao, while eating, glanced at the people around the room. Isn’t indulging in the delicious food more enjoyable? Why distract oneself with argumentative banter?
Jinrong couldn’t help but laugh at Guan He’s expression, although he couldn’t wait to gather some people and give him a good thrashing, he couldn’t lose his composure and could only give him a two-word assessment, "show-off."
Guan He immediately refuted, "Sixth Master, you see, that’s not right. How can this be showing off? Yam can be used as a medicine; it’s beneficial, and when prepared as food, one must consider the medicinal properties, so it’s natural to not pursue flavor too much. Thus, it doesn’t count as a dish with good taste. Just like you, Sixth Master, with your esteemed status, you naturally lose out on many things and can’t act as freely as a common man. This has nothing to do with being a show-off at all."
Jinrong was stunned, then glanced at Jiang Yifan, speaking incredulously, "You, I didn’t see it coming. You’re actually this sly, waiting here for me."
