"I think Li Jie is nice, but... isn’t his home too far away? I want to find someone closer!" Li Feifei casually came up with an excuse.
Bai Ningbing also faintly sensed that Li Feifei had changed.
Very quickly, no one said much.
They arrived at the steakhouse.
"Welcome, everyone. May I ask if you have a reservation?" the hostess greeted them.
"If we don’t have a reservation, can we still dine here?" Luofeng teased.
"Of course, sir. Right this way, please. We have seats with a view!" The hostess quickly led Luofeng and his companions to a table by the window.
Naturally, Bai Ningbing and Luofeng sat together.
Li Feifei and Zhao Xinxin sat together.
The waiter brought over an ordering tablet, but there was only one?
Luofeng mentally gave them a negative review.
One tablet for four people? If this were an average restaurant costing one or two hundred yuan per person, it would be normal. But in a high-end restaurant charging 2,000 yuan a meal, this shouldn’t be the case, right?
Bai Ningbing began browsing the menu.
The Sirloin steak and the Australian Wagyu Fillet Steak were the same price: 200 grams for 2,200 yuan.
Australian Beef Brain Steak: 200 grams, priced at 1,800 yuan.
The prices were indeed a bit steep, but not the most expensive. The most expensive item was the 800-gram Tomahawk steak, priced at 4,600 yuan. However, when calculated by weight, it was actually much more cost-effective.
"Luofeng, how should I choose?" Bai Ningbing asked, demonstrating her good habit of asking when she was unsure, and she didn’t feel ashamed about it.
Perhaps other girls would feel embarrassed to ask such a question? This was also one of the reasons Luofeng liked her.
"The Fillet has the tenderest texture and a soft, yielding feel. If you choose the Fillet Steak, I recommend medium or medium-well."
"The Sirloin also tastes good, but compared to the Fillet, it’s chewier and has a higher fat content. For this one, I recommend at least medium-well, so it won’t be too greasy for you!"
"The texture of the Blade is less greasy than the Sirloin, and it’s tender and juicy. I also recommend this one cooked to medium, so the myoglobin doesn’t look like blood!"
After Luofeng finished explaining, Bai Ningbing curiously asked, "What about the Tomahawk steak?"
"You won’t be able to finish it!" Luofeng laughed. "Ladies, we follow one rule when dining: no wasting food!"
Li Feifei and Zhao Xinxin both expressed their agreement.
"Then which one should we choose?" Ningbing asked again.
"Baby, you’re an adult now, so of course, you should try them all!" Luofeng joked. "Fillet, Sirloin, Blade—just order all of them. Later, you can see which one you like best and eat that. Leave the rest to me!" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
Bai Ningbing’s eyes twinkled with amusement as she happily nodded. "Mhm, let’s get all of them then!"
Li Feifei felt a pang of envy. She suddenly regretted it.
Why hadn’t I realized back then that Luofeng was such a good catch?
If only I had known...
But unless Brother Feng didn’t have the System and his family’s circumstances were as modest as she had initially believed—just under ten million—Li Feifei wouldn’t have stood a chance.
Anyway, his parents had hidden their wealth quite well. Although not amounting to tens of billions, or even several hundred million, they weren’t as simple as Luofeng had initially imagined. Only after Luofeng started making his own money did he realize that his parents were indeed quite capable.
Seeing how Luofeng doted on Bai Ningbing, Zhao Xinxin couldn’t help but feel envious too. How many women could resist such a warm and caring boyfriend like Luofeng?
Li Feifei looked at the menu on the tablet, trying to appear calm and composed on the surface, but inwardly she was quite astonished.
Just one steak, 200 grams, for more than 2,000 yuan? She suddenly found herself facing the same dilemma Bai Ningbing had experienced earlier. However, after listening to Luofeng’s explanation, she chose the tenderest Fillet Steak.
Watching Ningbing act so coyly, Li Feifei thought to herself, ’A woman who knows how to be coquettish truly has a good life.’
In reality, assertive women often don’t fare as well as those who can act sweet and playful.
This seemed inevitable.
Because capable men generally don’t need their woman to be capable; they just want her to have that soft, feminine charm.
That’s the key to happiness.
