Liu Yuerong was quite casual, eating a piece of beef jerky from Gu Fang's leather bag as if she was snacking on any regular treat.
"Hmm?" Liu Yuerong stretched her neck forward a little surprised, "Is this beef jerky? Why is it so delicious?"
She casually took another piece out of the package.
As she chewed, the flavor became more and more enjoyable.
The spicy and numbing taste wasn't too strong, but combined with the beef flavor, it was just right. The key was, the more she ate, the more she wanted to eat, which was very strange.
After eating several pieces of beef jerky in a row, Liu Yuerong saw He Ziheng placing a large bowl of steaming hot boiled beef on the table, and turned to ask, "Who is this?"
Gu Fang smacked her lips, "This is my sister's boyfriend, He Ziheng."
"Oh." Liu Yuerong wasn't very interested in this and instead stared at the boiled beef. Already a bit hungry, the spicy aroma made her stomach growl involuntarily.
"Sister Liu, you're in the shaping phase right now, you can't eat this!" Gu Fang could tell from Liu Yuerong's eyes that this big sister was starting to lose control.
"Can't eat it? I'm not eating, no way. This thing looks greasy, not eating at all." Liu Yuerong reluctantly averted her gaze and continued, "Xiao Fang, what should we do now? If Jia Mei really takes someone away, surely more sisters will go over there to get a card eventually."
Gu Fang slowly chewed on the Lantern Shadow Beef, "If it doesn't work, we can have more events, with a bigger promotion?"
Liu Yuerong sighed, her mouth never stopped, but she said nothing.
Having events is one way, but it's definitely not a long-term solution. If they use attractive men, and we're still doing recharge promotions here, isn't that a joke?
Gu Jing looked at the boiled beef on the table, rather surprised.
As a Sichuan person, boiled beef is quite a common dish. It's often ordered when dining out, but this one seemed more exquisite than any other she had seen before!
The red oil broth was bright and colorful, with fine chili flakes and pepper powder floating on top. You could tell it was added afterward and poured with oil, otherwise, it wouldn't look like this.
And inside the large bowl was tender beef, green vegetables, and white bean sprouts. The layers of colorful ingredients made one's appetite grow just by looking at them. And despite the thirty-something-degree temperature, the dish still appeared steaming hot once it was brought to the table.
Can't wait any longer!
Gu Jing slightly stirred the ingredients in the bowl with her chopsticks and then took a hearty bite!
Slices of beef, vegetables, and bean sprouts were all grabbed at once, piled into the bowl, then she picked up a beef slice, blew on it, and finally cautiously put it into her mouth.
"Oooh!! Huhu..." He Ziheng had just fiercely devoured a mouthful and was fanning his open mouth with exaggerated exclamations.
This left Gu Fang and Liu Yuerong a little speechless.
"Let me say, we should just..."
"Sis, quickly try a bite! My God, how can there be such delicious boiled beef in the world! This boss must be a national banquet master in disguise!" Gu Jing swayed a piece of meat near Gu Fang's mouth, interrupting her sister.
Gu Fang was quite impatient and wanted to push her away.
What a joke, your big sister relies on her figure, and you want me to eat this stuff?
Seeing her sister unhappy, Gu Jing justified, "You just said eating beef doesn't make you fat! This is beef too! You can eat it."
Liu Yuerong was startled, "This is beef? Right, Xiao Fang, didn't you say in class that beef is rich in protein and eating it builds muscle? Then I think it's okay to eat this."
"You can eat it, but not too much."
With such a large piece of meat swaying by her mouth, Gu Fang's mouth was watering and she couldn't resist. She found a convenient excuse and said.
So, another two pairs of chopsticks were added to the table.
Gu Fang silently consoled herself.
"Eating a bit of beef won't make you gain weight; eating a little is no problem."
"Moreover, I haven't eaten such greasy and salty food in a long time; having it occasionally isn't an issue. Even those on a diet have cheat meals, so eating a little isn't overindulging!"
Liu Yuerong didn't think too much about it. If Gu Fang hadn't forced her to do yoga and workouts, she wouldn't have any dietary restrictions at all.
The conversation between the two was interrupted as their chopsticks all reached out towards the tempting dish!
Gu Fang grabbed a slice of beef, blew on it, and ate it.
"Hiss..." she inhaled lightly.
The beef had a strong spicy-numbing punch right from the first bite, the kind... that was intensely thick and spicy, almost like a beef tallow hot pot!
And those evenly cut slices of beef after marinating and boiling, Chen Mo used a new cooking technique.
The boiled beef slices were about eighty percent done, then placed in a large bowl and poured with scorching hot oil for the final doneness.
The beef made this way was smooth and tender, with no toughness, and even though it was the same beef as Lantern Shadow Beef, it tasted like two extremes!
Gu Fang devoured a piece of beef, internally exclaiming satisfaction, although her face remained calm.
"Having some beef is fine; eating vegetables doesn't matter at all."
So, bean sprouts and vegetables were eaten one bite after another.
These side dishes were fresh and crisp, the leaves absorbed the essence of the broth, making them not only rich in texture but providing a relief from the grease in the end.
After a bite, Gu Fang didn't think much and went for another!
Liu Yuerong took two continuous bites and started sweating at the nose, "This Boss Chen can really cook, why with such good skills doesn't he open a restaurant in the city instead of setting up a stall here?"
Gu Fang, slurping and gasping for air, also felt the intense spiciness.
Who knew what kind of chili and Sichuan pepper Boss Xiao Chen used, but after eating his dish, the numbing spiciness lingered long on the tongue. It forced you to take another bite to alleviate that feeling, but after the second bite, the spicy numbness became even more intense.
This was difficult.
While gasping, Gu Fang explained to Liu Yuerong, "Boss Xiao Chen's skills are really great. I followed a streamer before, and they even formed an intelligence group specifically to eat Boss Xiao Chen's dishes."
"Oh? There's such a thing?"
Sichuan women love to chat.
The problem of the gym losing clientele was immediately forgotten, as Liu Yuerong asked curiously and Gu Fang, with dramatic gestures, narrated the story while even Gu Jing and He Ziheng listened intently.
Especially when they heard about the hospital livestream.
He Ziheng gasped, "You mean that Brother Lao Zhao really got rid of his treasure to eat Boss Xiao Chen's dishes?"
Gu Fang showed a slightly disdainful expression, "Yes, but the problem is he didn't get to eat it! Later, Brother Lao Zhao somehow convinced his wife and rushed to Yu Province overnight, only to..."
"Miss it again?" He Ziheng widened his eyes in disbelief!
"Who said otherwise. Now, I'm even afraid to mention it in the fan group, fearing Brother Zhao might break down."
The four chatted animatedly.
When He Ziheng reached for more food with his chopsticks, he heard a ding and looked down.
Wait...
You all said you maintain your figure by not eating, and the other said the same, while another said they had a small appetite when flirting.
But damn, I ordered a big bowl of boiled beef, where's the beef?
The vegetables?
Wait, no.
The soup?
