"Good afternoon, sir and miss, how many of you are there?"
The woman in the qipao displayed a professional smile and asked.
"Two."
Qin Yang glanced at the qipao woman beside him. As expected from a five-star hotel, the staff here were quite presentable, and they didn't show any different expression just because he was wearing cheap clothes.
"Please, this way."
The qipao woman led Qin Yang and the other person inside.
The size of the Crystal Palace was indeed impressive, with towering pillars, luxurious lighting, and splendid decorations.
The white marble floor, clean and bright, had several small streams flowing slowly, surrounding the entire Crystal Palace. Various fish swam freely within, and Qin Yang also saw many towering aquariums filled with various fish, shrimp, and crabs.
The qipao woman led them to a compartnt on the first floor, where a small stream and the fish swimming within could be seen outside the window, creating a fresh and elegant environnt.
"Sir, miss, would you like to select dishes directly from the nu, or would you prefer to choose seafood ingredients and decide on the preparation thod yourself?" the qipao woman asked with a smile.
Qin Yang shifted his gaze to Ruan Xinxue.
"Let's look at the nu first," Ruan Xinxue said with a smile, knowing that Qin Yang was hungry.
The qipao woman handed the exquisitely decorated nu to Qin Yang, who then passed it to Ruan Xinxue.
"Then I'll choose, okay?"
Ruan Xinxue smiled and ordered a stead grouper and a snow silk stead scallop.
"Qin Yang, are two dishes enough?" Ruan Xinxue closed the nu and asked.
"No need to save money for ."
Qin Yang grinned. This girl talked about making him treat but picked two relatively cheap dishes; she certainly had a kind heart.
"Then let's add a dish of tomato perch fillet."
Ruan Xinxue looked again and added another dish, which brought the total close to a thousand yuan.
"I'm starving, three dishes aren't enough, let have a go."
Qin Yang smiled and took the nu from Ruan Xinxue, starting to scan it. It must be said that the appearance and pairing of the dishes could easily whet one's appetite.
"I'll have two Australian lobsters, two stead hairy crabs, two orders of king crab, four double-headed abalone, two pounds of xican geoduck, and the New Zealand prawns look good..."
"That'll be it for now."
Qin Yang ordered over a dozen items at once, each at least in double servings, and then placed the nu down amidst the shocked gazes of Ruan Xinxue and the qipao woman.
"Sir... you're ordering for two people?"
The qipao woman's professional smile turned a bit stiff, her voice dry as she questioned, noting the order was enough for twenty grown n to eat freely.
"Yes, didn't I say that at the beginning?" Qin Yang replied.
"Typically, for two people, two to four dishes are suitable..." the qipao woman suggested.
"Four dishes aren't enough, just bring what I ordered." Qin Yang knew the qipao woman ant well, so he gestured and said.
"Yes, sir."
The qipao woman nodded. Their service standard was to make custors feel satisfied. Since Qin Yang wanted to order so much, she couldn't say otherwise, and she wasn't worried Qin Yang couldn't pay. Plus, the Crystal Palace had a strong background, so few dared to dine here without paying.
"Would you like any drinks, sir and miss? Brandy or white wine?" the qipao woman asked.
"Bring two bottles you see fit."
Qin Yang had no particular preference for wine, finding the Earth's wine generally ordinary, far inferior to the Jade Dew of the Immortal Yuan Continent.
"Then I recomnd the German Edelfrau's noble ice sweet white wine, sweet taste with a hint of ice, refreshing and pleasant," the qipao woman suggested.
"Alright, sure." Qin Yang nodded.
"Sir, so ingredients need your personal selection. Please follow ."
The qipao woman led the two of them towards the rows of tall aquariums.
At the aquariums, Qin Yang specifically chose the largest lobsters, crabs, and shellfish, and his ostentatious manner caught the attention of many onlookers.
While everyone who could afford to co here had so status, Qin Yang's casual appearance and generous ordering were unparalleled.
"Could this kid be a hidden rich second generation?"
"Definitely, look at the charming beauty beside him; if he weren't rich, could he attract her?"
"Rich people nowadays dress like this to keep a low profile..."
"..."
Qin Yang paid no attention to the glanced and murmured comnts of others, his principle simple: only order the best, the most energy-rich items.
"Qin Yang, can we eat so much?"
Hearing the discussions around, Ruan Xinxue chuckled softly, convinced he wasn't one to show off for the sake of face.
"Don't worry, it won't be wasted."
Qin Yang shook his head and smiled. He needed all sorts of energy to improve his constitution, and seafood's energy was purer than food from the land.
"Oh, Qin Yang, look at that fish, it's so beautiful and swims so fast."
Ruan Xinxue's eyes suddenly sparkled, pointing to a fish in the stream.
Qin Yang's eyes focused, following Ruan Xinxue's direction. In the stream ahead, a fish with a fiery red body caught his sight.
The fiery red fish swam very happily in the stream, much faster and livelier than the others.
"Is that... Fire Spirit Fish?!"
Qin Yang's pupils shrank, his heart filled with joy, as he walked closer to examine it.
The Fire Spirit Fish, truly a Fire Spirit Fish, though the lowest-grade spirit fish on the Immortal Yuan Continent, had a single presence on this spiritually deficient Earth, causing Qin Yang much delight.
The qipao woman, observing Qin Yang's focus on the fish, introduced it: "Sir, this fish is a mutant variety of salmon. After testing, it's entirely edible. Apart from our chef, another table of guests has also consud it before, praising its delicious taste."
"Hmm?" Qin Yang was startled, then delighted, "How many do you have here? I want as many as there are."
"We originally had three. The chef tried one, another table ate one, and this is the last one," the qipao woman stated.
