Wang Qianqian lowered her head and stayed silent.

Seeing this, Yu Manli quietly tugged at her sleeve.

Only then did she nod along.

Yu Manli smiled at Sun Dasheng and said, "Qianqian is also hungry, let's go down and grab something to eat, shall we?"

"Alright, by the way, is there any food around here?" Sun Dasheng suddenly remembered this area was quite remote, already considered the outer ring.

Yu Manli smiled confidently, "When it comes to other things, we can't compare this place to downtown, but there are way more street foods here than in the city center."

"Oh, why's that?" Sun Dasheng was curious.

"Of course, it's because those snack shops simply can't afford the rents in the city center!" Yu Manli said matter-of-factly.

"Alright then." Sun Dasheng patted his forehead.

Looks like being high and mighty for too long, he had forgotten to venture down more often.

To actually ask such a "Why don't they eat cake" kind of question, he couldn't help but blush a little.

At the bottom of the apartment complex.

Not far from there.

There was a blaze of lights.

Unlike the neon lights and boozy ambiance of the city center, here were small shops and food stalls with faint lights, grouped together, forming a long dragon in the night filled with the hustle and bustle of ordinary life.

The three of them walked, with Yu Manli leading the way.

"Follow me, I'll take you to something tasty. I'm telling you, their shrimp is absolutely amazing!"

"Oh?" Sun Dasheng was skeptical.

When it came to shrimp, he always thought the best were the ones from his hometown's neighbor Qianjiang.

Stewed prawns, his favorite.

However, soon he broke his own prejudice.

Turns out, aside from Qianjiang's stewed prawns, there was another kind of delicious shrimp.

That was Xuyi's Thirteen-spice Crawfish.

Eating them, they were just as good as stewed prawns.

"How's the taste? I didn't lie to you, did I?" Yu Manli looked at the man eating, her eyes narrowing with a smile.

She was from Xuyi, someone appreciating her hometown's delicacies naturally made her happy.

What made her happier was the man's recognition.

"Not bad, it's delicious, you've got good taste." Sun Dasheng praised.

"Hehe... Actually, I've been eating these since I was a kid, I'm tired of them." Yu Manli laughed.

Sun Dasheng understood, "You're from Xuyi?"

"Yeah, Mr. Sun, have you ever been there?"

"No!" Sun Dasheng shook his head, then looking at Wang Qianqian who was eating crawfish on her own, he asked, "Where are you from?"

Wang Qianqian seemed not to hear it, while Yu Manli quickly covered for her, "Qianqian is from Shandong Qingdao, haven't you noticed how tall she is? People from there are all tall."

"Qingdao, nice place! Huang Bo, Huang Xiaoming and that guy who played Erlang Shen... what's his name..."

"Jiao Enjun!" Wang Qianqian suddenly piped up, then went back to eating on her own.

Sun Dasheng wasn't annoyed, because he had pretended to forget on purpose.

Just like that, the little girl took the bait.

"Right, Jiao Enjun, so Qingdao really is a land of talent, lots of handsome guys.

There's just not too many famous beautiful actresses...."

He said this while glancing at Wang Qianqian.

Only to see the corners of Wang Qianqian's mouth pull up in a mocking smile.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

"Hehe..." Wang Qianqian started to say but was pulled back by Yu Manli who whispered, "Don't be sarcastic, or the things I promised you won't count."

Yu Manli's threat was quite effective, Wang Qianqian didn't continue to be sarcastic.

Instead, she started debating with Sun Dasheng, "There are plenty of beautiful actresses from Qingdao, alright?"

"Oh, like who?"

"Wang Yan, Qing'er from My Fair Princess; the heartthrob Chen Hao; and Bai Baihe...

She rattled off a whole slew of star names.

Sun Dasheng nodded constantly, agreeing while listening.

"Consider me ignorant, come, I toast to you, as an apology to all the beauties of Qingdao!"

This glass Wang Qianqian couldn't not drink, after all, it was toasting her as a representative of Qingdao's beauties.

This was just the beginning, later on, Sun Dasheng easily found a bunch of excuses, all making Wang Qianqian unable to refuse, drinking one glass after another.

Eventually, of course, she got drunk.

But not to the point of being totally out.

She just walked a bit unsteadily.

Yu Manli, who was supporting Wang Qianqian, glanced at Sun Dasheng who was holding her other arm.

Thinking, oh you're good, seems like you got her drunk on purpose tonight?

Why?

Soon, she figured out why.

Because she got into trouble with him.

An exhausted Yu Manli pleaded for mercy, lying weakly in his arms, "You got Qianqian drunk during dinner just to not let her interfere with your fun?"

Sun Dasheng stroked her pretty face, kissed it, "Congratulations, you got it right!"

"Why?" Yu Manli chased after him asking.

She actually wanted to ask, wouldn't it be better with two people serving you?

But, this question indeed felt against common sense, not something a woman like her should ask, because she was selfish.

If she asked, it would only make him think she might have some issues, right?

What woman brings up serving a man together with another woman?

"You're asking me why, don't you know?" Sun Dasheng pinched her nose.

Yu Manli shook her head, she really didn't know.

Seeing her expression, Sun Dasheng realized she wasn't pretending and said, "I'll tell you, just don't let her know."

"Um, I promise I won't say anything, let her know."

"She just lies there like a boring salted fish, no reaction at all, tell me, what's the fun in that?"
