Lin Yifan gently took a bite, then chewed slowly, savoring the taste carefully.

"Mmm!!! Jiajia, this rice is fragrant, sweet, and delicious, just like sweet honey, completely melting my heart."

"That's more like it." Zhou Jiajia's face showed a hint of smugness, extremely happy.

After pacifying the four "wives," Lin Yifan finally let out a sigh of relief in his heart. To find those words, he really had to rack his brains, pondering over it for a long time, almost on the verge of collapse.

After feeding Lin Yifan, Zhou Jiajia and the others began to divvy up the bowl of rich and delicious seafood clay pot rice.

The clay pot contained crab, shrimp, fish, baby octopus, and more, very rich, enough to give them great satisfaction.

"Gurgle! Gurgle!"

Lin Yifan watched as Zhou Jiajia and the others divided the various delicious seafood, his mouth watering, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Babes, can you share some of it with me?"

"You've already had enough; you can't eat more." Zhou Jiajia and the others responded in unison, their opinions extremely uniform.

Lin Yifan was instantly speechless, not expecting the four "wives" to turn against him in an instant. Then he countered, "When did I say I was full?"

"Yifan, a pot of rice isn't much to begin with. Just now, we've already fed you eight bites. The rest is barely enough for the five of us to share; so for our sake, just bear with it a bit—it'll be over soon." Zhou Jiajia persuaded.

"Then at least let me have a bite of the rice, alright?" Lin Yifan asked.

Zhou Jiajia thought it wasn't easy for Lin Yifan just now, so she agreed to feed him another bite of rice.

Lin Yifan accepted the offer right away and savor the bite, not daring to eat too quickly, afraid of drooling again soon.

Watching this scene, the clay pot rice shop owner was also drunk with amazement.

People laden with various clothes and handbags actually wanted to crowd together to share a bowl of clay pot rice—could this be the legendary beauty born from hunger?

A while later, the seafood was gone, the rice in the clay pot also finished, but there was still one delicacy left to eat, and that was the golden crust on the walls of the pot.

The crust of the clay pot rice was different from the usual crust. It was not only crispy but also had a lingering taste, truly the essence of the pot.

"Shush shush shush!"

Soon, Zhou Jiajia and the others finished this delicious thing, leaving not a single bit.

After finishing the clay pot rice, they left the restaurant and continued to walk along the gourmet street.

For the eighth delicacy, they chose the Southeastern snack—Putian braised noodles.

The gluten of Putian braised noodles was elastic, not too thick or too thin, flavorful yet not greasy, rich and delicious.

Zhou Jiajia and the others ordered a small bowl and then shared it.

For the ninth delicacy, they chose one of the "Auspicious Four Cakes" from North China—the griddle cake.

The griddle cake was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, good-tasting and very nice.

Zhou Jiajia and the others took two pieces, then ate while strolling along.

For the tenth delicacy, they chose the lamb skewers, famous overseas.

The lamb skewers were golden brown and glossy, mildly spicy with a fresh taste, neither greasy nor gamy, tender and delicious, truly a great food for humankind.

Before even arriving at the stall, Zhou Jiajia and the others were already drooling with desire.

The aroma of the sizzling barbecue, like the fragrance of osmanthus, could be smelled from miles away, and it was simply divine.

Standing in front of the stall, Zhou Jiajia and her friends went big, ordering thirty skewers of lamb all at once and then tearing into them with gusto.

Despite eating so much street food, Lin Yifan still found the juicy yet not greasy, fragrant lamb skewers delectable. Not for any other reason, but because they had that smoky barbecue taste.

However, no matter how delicious, one shouldn't overindulge as it's not great for one's health.

After the lamb skewers, they had grilled squid, fried pork chop, and spicy crawfish.

It must be said that the spicy crawfish were explosively hot and irresistibly fragrant, creating a love-hate relationship.

Lastly, each of them ordered a cup of ice-cold bubble milk tea, a way to cool their taste buds.

With that, their food street adventure came to an end, and Lin Yifan and his friends were thoroughly satisfied.

Compared to the local delicacies of Barujia in Feizhou, Lin Yifan felt the cuisine of Shenzhou Country was truly a world-class delight, simply irresistible.

Having finished their tour of the food street, Lin Yifan's day as the center of attention was also coming to an end.

Just earlier on the street, he was on the receiving end of astonished stares and various murmurs. If it hadn't been for the allure of the food, he might have been inclined to start a fight.

Arriving at the shopping mall's underground car park, Lin Yifan told Zhou Jiajia to get the keys, open the trunk, and help him move the shopping bags from his hands and neck into the trunk.

Zhou Jiajia complied with Lin Yifan's request, opened the trunk, and then came over to help him move the items.

Seeing this, An Qi and the others came over to lend a hand.

Soon enough, they had neatly placed all of Lin Yifan's shopping bags inside the trunk of the car.

After they finished, Zhou Jiajia and the others got into the car; Lin Yifan closed the trunk and then went to the driver's side door, ready to open it, get in the car, and drive away.

But just as his hand touched the handle, he suddenly sensed something was off. He heard a faint sound, one that was eerily familiar.

Instinct told him it was the sound of a timer on a bomb, ticking away.

Although the sound was faint, almost negligible, Lin Yifan still picked it up—thanks to his sharp instincts and years of experience. A regular person would never be able to detect that it was the sound of a timing device on a bomb.

The sound was nearby, and intuition told him it might be on his and Su Qingqing's car.

Suddenly, he dove to the ground to take a careful look under the car and immediately saw a timer bomb blinking with a red light.

"Indeed!" exclaimed Lin Yifan, astonished that someone truly intended to harm him.

"Yifan, what's wrong? Why are you lying on the ground?" Zhou Jiajia poked her head out from the car, her face full of confusion.

Just a moment ago, Lin Yifan was fine; why had he suddenly lain down? This made her very curious.

"Jiajia, Qingqing, all of you, get out of the car quickly, there's a bomb under it! Someone wants to blow us up!" Lin Yifan called out urgently, his face filled with panic.

The bomb would explode in a few minutes, and they'd likely be halfway out when it happened, which would surely lead to their destruction. Fortunately, his timely discovery averted the disaster, otherwise, it would have been a dire situation.

Hearing Lin Yifan's shout, Zhou Jiajia and the others were shocked, and they immediately unbuckled their seatbelts and got out of the car.

Su Qingqing bent down to look under the car and saw the bomb with its blinking light. Her face turned pale as she wondered who could be so malicious as to murder them with such a cruel method.

Zhou Jiajia and the others also stooped down to see and were startled by the sight.

They then urgently asked, "Yifan, what do we do now? Should we call the police, or should we drive the car to an open area?"
