Chapter 176 Beef Noodles, Extra Meat, Less Noodles
“Miss, two bowls of beef noodles, extra beef and less noodles. Thank you,” said Chu Feng as he gave a warm smile to the lady at the counter. After that, he went to find a seat and leisurely sat down.
Yun Muyu just rolled her eyes annoyedly. “You asked for more meat, are you an idiot? Consider yourself lucky already if they give you two tiny slabs of minced meat for a bowl of beef noodles like this that cost less than ten.”
As soon as she finished talking, a steaming bowl of beef noodles was served to her. It had a few chopped green onions and just two small pieces of beef.
Yun Muyu pouted; she thought to herself that it was just as she had expected. Then, she stared with her eyes widened with disbelief.
“Mister, this is your bowl of noodles.”
Was it perhaps Chu Feng’s charming aura that had mesmerized the lady at the counter, or was he born with some halo over his head? His bowl of beef noodles was filled with chunks of beef that were piled up high above the brim of the bowl, while there were only a few strands of noodles in the bowl.
The lady at the counter was blushing as she took a quick glance at Chu Feng before leaving bashfully.
All the other customers around him were also dumbfounded when they saw his bowl of beef noodles.
“I-I… Y-You..” Yun Muyu’s words were stuck in her throat. “Wow, why does yours have so much meat while mine only has two pieces?”
“Maybe it’s because I’m good-looking?”
Chu Feng stroked his chin and started wolfing down the meat, feeling extremely satisfied.
Yun Muyu pouted as she looked at the clump of noodles inside her bowl, and turned her gaze toward Chu Feng’s bowl again that was filled with beef. The more she looked at it, the more discontented she was.
In the end, she just gave a snort and snatched Chu Feng’s bowl of beef noodles over and started indulging in it.
“Hey, you—”
“What? Don’t you know ladies first?” Yun Muyu was full of herself as she smiled from ear to ear and could not stop complimenting the dish. “This beef is aromatic. Chu Feng, what are you staring at? Eat up, the noodles are delicious. It’s more aromatic than the beef, that’s why I left them for you.”
Chu Feng just felt helpless and could only raise Yun Muyu’s bowl of noodles furiously as he gobbled them down; he did not have the heart to be mad at this mischievous little girl.
Yun Muyu felt extremely satisfied after filling her stomach. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and something crossed her mind—she had shared a bowl of noodles with Chu Feng, did this count as them kissing indirectly?
Pfft, what was she thinking about!
Yun Muyu quickly got rid of that strange and illicit thought of hers. Her face blushed in an instant as her eyes began wandering wildly.
Chu Feng did not have the time to bother with what nonsense the girl was thinking in her head. He was reminiscing the days when he was in the army.
Xi Ye was a secluded place and there were a lot of yaks in the deserted land. The people there were tough and down-to-earth.
The happiest moment during that time was the time when he was on a mission. The ladies in Xi Ye were holding out against the strong wind to give them soldiers bowls of steaming beef noodles. There was plenty of meat and little noodles. Those bowls of beef noodles bore the admiration the ladies had for them. It was a sincere yet unforgettable memory.
That was the reason Chu Feng had chosen to enter this noodle shop.
The meat was tender yet it did not lose its firmness; the soup was fresh and the noodles were scrumptious. It was clear that it was authentic yak meat from Xi Ye .
The lady who was at the counter was clearly from the Xi Ye region, judging from her demeanor and looks. Perhaps, she had also sensed the unique aura of a Xi Ye soldier on Chu Feng.
That must be why she observed the Xi Ye’s customs and served him a big bowl of steaming beef noodles, with plenty of meat and little noodles.
Chu Feng wondered if she had ever thought of the soldier whom she had given a bowl of beef noodles to, or if she reminisced those memories of the admiration they had for the soldiers.
“I’ve finished eating, we can leave now.”
