"I'm really sorry for keeping everyone waiting. I'll treat you all to lunch today!" Shen Na walked over and apologized.
Luofeng looked at Shen Na.
Right now, if he wasn't mistaken, Shen Na was wearing a full set from Uniqlo.
Looking at the situation, Luofeng sighed a bit inside. Back then her family had billions in assets, and now she was just in Uniqlo?
However, Shen Na didn't give up on herself. Instead, she was willing to lower her pride and earn 3,000 yuan a day doing modeling gigs.
When soone is willing to let go of their pride to earn money, it shows that they've matured.
Luofeng actually had a bit of admiration for Shen Na.
After all, it's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality!
How many people can do what Shen Na did?
Most people would sell their beauty for a good life.
After all, Shen Na is really beautiful.
If she wanted, there would definitely be a market.
"Mm-hmm, thank you, Nana. Is there any good food around here?" Bai Ningbing was the first to agree, then asked.
Wang Yanran didn't decline Shen Na's lunch invitation either.
Luofeng joked casually, "I don't think there's any stinky tofu around here, is there?"
Before Bai Ningbing could react.
Shen Na said, "Actually, there is. Just down the street from the exhibition hall, in a small lifestyle plaza!"
Luofeng looked at Shen Na speechlessly.
Bai Ningbing chirped, "I'll just go and eat it myself when you leave on Monday!"
Wang Yanran chid in, "I'll go with you then. I actually haven't tried it. Let's see if it's as you say, slls bad but tastes good!"
"Of course, it's delicious!" Bai Ningbing declared confidently.
The four of them quickly left the exhibition hall.
Shen Na led everyone to a yellow croaker noodle shop, "Yellow croaker noodle, Student Luo Feng, have you tried it?"
Luofeng nodded, "I had it with Ningbing last ti in Shanghai!"
Bai Ningbing said, "Whether yellow croaker noodles taste good depends on whether the shop helps remove the bones. Nana, does this place's yellow croaker noodle have the bones removed?"
Shen Na nodded, "Of course, or I wouldn't have brought you here!"
As she spoke, Shen Na led the three of them into the noodle shop.
Luofeng took a glance at the shop's prices.
Yellow croaker noodle was priced at thirty-eight yuan a bowl.
The price was quite reasonable.
However, the croaker was probably farm-raised.
"Should we all have yellow croaker noodles?" Shen Na asked first.
The three of them didn't object.
Shen Na handed the nu to Bai Ningbing, "Ningbing, see if we need anything else besides the main dish, yellow croaker noodle!"
Bai Ningbing took the nu and while checking, asked, "Luofeng, do you want anything else?"
Luofeng glanced casually and said, "How about a plate of fried spring rolls and so grilled small yellow croaker? Do they have those?"
"They do!" Bai Ningbing nodded.
Spring rolls were just 12 yuan per serving.
Small yellow croaker was twenty-eight yuan.
This price in Jingzhou was quite average.
Wang Yanran didn't choose anything else, knowing Shen Na's family situation, so saving a bit here and there was logical.
Shen Na asked again, "Do you want sothing to drink? I recomnd the sour plum soup here, it's nice to have if the yellow croaker noodle is a bit greasy!"
Luofeng nodded, "Alright, let's have so then!"
Bai Ningbing agreed as well, "I quite like sour plum soup!"
Once they made their choices, Shen Na switched to the local Jingzhou dialect to communicate with the staff.
Monts later.
The yellow croaker noodles were served.
The aroma was pretty decent.
Bai Ningbing took a bite and imdiately exclaid, "Luofeng, were we ripped off the last ti we ate yellow croaker noodles?"
"Huh? How did we get ripped off?" Wang Yanran asked curiously.
Bai Ningbing said, "We had them in Shanghai last ti, and we especially chose the 88 yuan serving of the so-called East Sea yellow croaker noodle, but I feel this one tastes the sa!"
Luofeng responded, "Babe, did you notice the detail about Shen Na just now?"
"Huh? A detail?" Bai Ningbing was puzzled.
"Shen Na was using local Jingzhou dialect to talk with them!" Luofeng chuckled.
Bai Ningbing suddenly understood.
Shen Na responded, "Actually, this kind of thing happens everywhere. I've encountered similar situations when traveling before!"
In other words.
If you're not familiar with the people, you might pay more and still not get sothing good.
If you're familiar, you might pay less and get sothing even better.
So, last ti when Luofeng and Bai Ningbing had yellow croaker noodles, they weren't ripped off, they just weren't given any special treatnt!
"But thinking about it, it's still annoying that 88 yuan a bowl has similar at quality to this one!" Bai Ningbing said.
Luofeng comforted her, "It's alright. I rember we were really happy eating last ti, and that's what matters!"
"Indeed!" Bai Ningbing nodded.
After a lunch of yellow croaker noodles.
Shen Na needed to go back to her post.
She could only rest around four in the afternoon.
Luofeng took the initiative to ask, "Yanran, Ningbing and I won't be going to the traditional cultural event this afternoon. We're planning to check out Guojin Center. Do you want to join us or continue watching the cultural event?"
Wang Yanran said, "I won't go. I'll just wander around here myself!"
"Alright then!" Luofeng nodded.
Luofeng's opinion of Wang Yanran rose even higher.
After all, if it were so gold diggers.
They might make all sorts of excuses to tag along.
Because if Luofeng buys things for Bai Ningbing, would he not consider Wang Yanran's feelings? Who knows, she might just end up with so small luxury goods!
Bai Ningbing waved goodbye to Shen Na and Wang Yanran. After trying on the traditional costus, she lost interest. Except when Luofeng specifically requested it, Bai Ningbing preferred a cute style in her regular dressing.
Things like black stockings and high heels, she only wore them on the Simmons, never outside.
Luofeng sighed; even with Bai Ningbing's great figure, she wasn't into wearing sexy outfits.
But, at least she wore them when it mattered, so whether she wore them outside or not, it seed only passersby were missing out, not Luofeng?
Luofeng quickly took Bai Ningbing to the parking area.
After getting in the car, Bai Ningbing asked, "Why are we going shopping?"
Luofeng said, "The weather's getting hot soon, I'm going to buy you so clothes!"
"It's still so ti until sumr!" Bai Ningbing said.
"But this is Jingzhou!" Luofeng reminded her deliberately.
Jingzhou is hot.
Although not as famously hot globally as Tokyo.
Dostically, it's also known for the heat.
Bai Ningbing said nothing, just nodded slightly.
About five kiloters in a straight line, it took them around twenty minutes to drive there.
After about half an hour, Luofeng finally brought Bai Ningbing to Guojin Center.
