Chapter 632 Stereotypes
"So that’s how it is. I find it hard to imagine you eating here because in my mind, you always go to fancy places. Bringing me to a place like this all of a sudden really surprised me."
"There’s nothing to be surprised about. I wasn’t born in a high position with a lot of money. Everything I have comes from my own hard work. I’ve been through a lot of hardships, and I don’t see anything wrong with this food stall. As long as the food is good, no matter where it is, as long as it serves its purpose, I will like it.
The barbecue here, for example, is absolutely outstanding. It’s delicious and not too expensive, but it’s really good. Although it’s not as sanitary as those high-end five-star restaurants, it’s not too dirty, and eating here doesn’t make me sick. I’ve never been one to fuss over these things. Come on, let’s go and try the barbecue. I’m not sure if you’ve ever tried it before.
I just feel like you’re definitely going to fall in love with it when we get there. And if you don’t, come find me. I guarantee I’ll take you around to try different places until you realize that only this place serves the ultimate barbecue."
Shen Dong said this with particular pride, as if he himself were the one grilling the barbecue, ready to fiercely defend it should anyone dare to criticize.
Once they were inside, the owner, upon seeing Shen Dong, greeted him like an old friend. Sticking to the usual, Shen Dong nodded and said, "This time, add a bit more. After all, I brought an extra person. What if there isn’t enough later? And add a dozen grilled oysters too; I think the grilled oysters here are pretty good, let’s try them again.
Last time, I didn’t get enough of them." The owner, chuckling, nodded and started grilling. Shen Dong, having taken a seat, very gentlemanly wiped down the table. It was then that Lin Qi thought of something—sometimes it’s not about dining at expensive places; even eating at small food stalls like this can be blissful.
Because this man is considerate, unlike her previous boyfriend who also brought her to food stalls with his friends, always caring more about his friends and paying the bill, without considering her feelings.
He even sometimes acted under the influence of his friends in ways that clearly showed he wasn’t the right match for her, but back then, she hadn’t seen through it and kept persisting, only to realize what was truly frightening in this world after being dumped. Fortunately, she had since awakened.
She wouldn’t fall into the same traps as before; she had come back stronger. By the time her mood settled, Shen Dong had already cleaned the table and was checking his phone for messages. Lin Qi didn’t have anything fun to do, so she just picked up her phone to catch up on recent news as well.
