Don't tell me what the names of these dishes are, my hands are sore when I write them.
Nowadays, most hotels use mobile phones or computers to order, but many high-end hotels still maintain the tradition of hand-written menus, mainly to create a feeling of home for guests.
Snapped!
Ye Qiu closed the menu and said to the waiter: "Have some of your signature shark's fin."
For a moment, the whole place was silent.
The people who had just mocked Ye Qiu all showed expressions of disbelief, thinking that they had heard wrongly.
Because the hotel's signature shark's fin costs 8,000 yuan a portion, they had never dared to order it before.
Ye Qiu said with a smile: "I think what you just said makes sense. It's hard for everyone to get together, and this is a five-star hotel. If I order those cheap dishes, wouldn't it embarrass you? After all, we are all classmates.
Well, I can't embarrass you no matter what, right monitor?"
Li Yang's face was a little gloomy. Although a portion of shark's fin was nothing to him, Ye Qiu's ordering such an expensive dish at a class reunion was clearly a trick to him.
Seeing everyone's eyes looking towards him, Li Yang quickly faded away the gloominess on his face, adjusted his glasses with his hand, and said with a smile: "Ye Qiu is right, we are all classmates, it's not easy to get together here today,
The most important thing is to be happy.”
"Besides, it's just a portion of shark's fin, it's nothing to me."
"Ye Qiu, feel free to order whatever you want to eat, but don't be polite to me!"
"Since the monitor has said so, I won't be polite to you." Ye Qiu said to the waiter: "Bring me a piece of South African caviar!"
"Sir, are you sure you want to order this?" Although the waiter was asking Ye Qiu, his eyes were looking at Li Yang.
South African caviar is the most expensive dish in the hotel. At 68,000 yuan a serving, it is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Li Yang also didn't expect that Ye Qiu would order the most expensive dish in the hotel, which made him feel a bit stuck.
At this time, several people nearby began to accuse.
"Ye Qiu, the squad leader is treating you to a treat. Aren't you cheating the squad leader by ordering such an expensive dish?"
"We are all classmates, is this necessary?"
"Ye Qiu, don't go too far!"
"What do you mean when I talk about my classmates? The class monitor told me not to be polite and be casual. Why, do you think the class monitor can't even afford a portion of caviar?"
Ye Qiu said to Li Yang again: "Monitor, if you think it's expensive, then I won't order it."
"No, just order what you want. Didn't I just say it? It's rare to get together, and the most important thing is to have fun."
Li Yang had a smile on his face, but he was scolding his mother for selling batches in his heart.
Caviar costs 68,000 per serving, only 100 grams, which is more expensive than gold. He is usually reluctant to eat it.
The key is, Ye Qiu also said, if you think it’s too expensive, I won’t order it. This sentence left him with no way out.
If Li Yang stops Ye Qiu, then the rich second-generation image he created in front of his classmates will fall apart, and everyone will think that he is a pretender who has no money but still wants to make money.
Therefore, even if his heart was bleeding, he could only let Ye Qiu order this caviar!
"See, even the squad leader doesn't think it's expensive. What are you comparing?" Ye Qiu scolded the people who had just criticized him, and then said to the waiter: "Add two more caviar."
Li Yang's heart skipped a beat and he said hurriedly: "Ye Qiu, one order is enough. There is no need to add two more, right?"
"Squad leader, we have three tables here. Of course, each table should have a portion of caviar for everyone to try, don't you think?"
How many!
You order the food and I pay for it, so you think I'm the one being taken advantage of!
"Students, you can't find caviar in South Africa in ordinary places. Please thank the monitor quickly."
As soon as Ye Qiu finished speaking, everyone else present said together: "Thank you, monitor!"
Li Yang squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying.
Although his family is rich, his pocket money is very limited. He may have to max out his credit card to pay for tonight's meal.
"Sir, do you want to add two portions of caviar?" the waiter asked Li Yang.
"Add!" Li Yang said through gritted teeth.
At this moment, he wanted to cut Ye Qiu into pieces with a thousand knives.
"You bastard, let me bleed. Just wait for me. I'll make you look good later!"
Ye Qiu saw Li Yang's expression and sneered in his heart.
"Fourth, isn't it good for you to trick the squad leader like this?" Chen Qiang said in a low voice.
"Where did I deceive the squad leader? Didn't he always say that his family's assets are over 100 million? It's just a few servings of caviar, and he can't eat enough."
"But Fourth Brother, we are all classmates, so I think it's a bit unkind of you to do this."
"Then he is being kind? He didn't even arrange seats for us at the class reunion. Isn't this intentional to embarrass us?"
"Fourth, I'm worried that if you do this, you will offend the squad leader!"
"If you offend me, just offend him. Anyway, I won't beg him in the future."
"The squad leader has some connections in his family, and since you are hanging out in Jiangzhou, I'm worried that he will find someone to deal with you later. The squad leader is very narrow-minded."
"Don't worry, Third Brother, he can't do anything to me."
Chen Qiang turned his head and took a look, and found that Ye Qiu had a strong self-confidence on his eyebrows, as if everything was no big deal in Ye Qiu's eyes. This was very different from the Ye Qiu in school.
"What has the fourth child experienced, and why has he changed so much?"
Chen Qiang was very confused.
While waiting for the food to be served, the atmosphere returned to its previous state, with everyone talking and laughing, and it was very lively.
Some people say they have become regular workers, others say they have bought a house, changed their car, and some are even showing off their Rolex watches, Gucci bags, and Cartier rings...
Looking at the lively scene in front of him, Ye Qiu felt sad in his heart. What kind of class reunion was this? It was just a pretend party!
If he had known it was like this, he wouldn't have come at all.
Similarly, Qin Ge and Chen Qiang next to them couldn't get a word in, and sat quietly on their chairs, looking a little embarrassed.
Fifteen minutes later, the food was served.
"Everyone, please be quiet, be quiet." Li Yang stood up and said, "Before dinner starts, I have a few words to say to everyone."
Everyone became quiet and looked at Li Yang.
Li Yang said: "Today, it is not easy for us to gather together and share our friendship."
"I remember that we gathered together during the Mid-Autumn Festival to admire the bright moon; we sweated under the scorching sun and expressed our pride; we worked hard to win honors; we studied hard and cultivated our lives."
"But, that was all time that passed yesterday."
"There is no need to miss the past; the future is worth looking forward to."
"I hope that today's class reunion will be a new beginning for us to renew our friendship, a new bridge for us to enhance our feelings, and a new starting point for our unity and reunion."
After Li Yang talked some nonsense, he said: "Next, I want to introduce someone to you. She is our classmate and also my girlfriend."
"Everyone, please take a look."
The private room door slowly opened, and a figure walked in from the outside.
