Chapter 991: Meet Like An Old Friend
Di Fuyi slowly surveyed him with an inquisitive look, "If you do not have enough silver, you could mortgage the jade at your waist to pay for the food."
The young man turned completely pale. The jade at his waist was the most valuable possession he owned. It was a family possession that had been handed down for many generations, and it was worth a thousand pieces of gold. He did not expect the child to have such a sharp eye that he was able to recognize the true value of the jade.
Once again, the young man smiled forcefully, "Little man, are you trying to make fun of me? You will not be able to finish so many dishes. The food will only go to waste..."
Di Fuyi answered with an adorable smile, "The food will not be wasted as the dishes are not only for the both of us. The dishes are for our ride that is now waiting outside."
The man did not know what to say. His handsome face started to flush with anger, "How can your pet finish all this good food? You are obviously making it difficult for me. If I was not treating you today, would you order the same dishes for it?"
With his face propped on his hands, Di Fuyi looked at him, "My ride is different from the usual rides and so what it eats must also be different from what others eat. Not only does it like good food, but it also fancies wine. I have not even ordered our drinks yet..." He then instructed the waiter, "I would like to have 20 pounds of high-quality Shaoxing wine and another 30 pounds of highly graded bamboo wine. The young man will pay for it."
The young manโs face was livid with anger. The bill would cost more than 1,000 silvers after the cost of the wine had been taken into consideration with the food.
Scornfully, the young man sneered, "It is so rare for a ride to drink wine. You seem like you are trying to provoke me on purpose. How can I fall for your trick? I repeat, would you order the same dishes if you were to pay for the food yourself?"
