Xu Chenxi felt a little frustrated. Her tried-and-true tactics of praise and seduction seemed to be having no effect today. The food in front of him was apparently far more alluring than she was.
She watched as Wu Yun popped a whole garlic prawn into his mouth, his eyes already darting toward the mantis shrimp on the table. He looked like a man who hadn't eaten in days.
Wu Yun's mouth was stuffed. Seeing Xu Chenxi staring at him, he gulped down the shrimp meat and said, "What are you looking at me for? Eat up! This place is pretty good. Thanks for the treat!"
The corner of Xu Chenxi's mouth twitched, but she quickly put on a gentle smile. "Young Master Wu, watching you eat really whets the appetite. Have you been too busy in Modu and the Capital City for a proper feast?"
"But that's understandable. The cuisine over there doesn't quite match the palate of the Ba and Shu Region."
