Dean kept staring at Han Jiulin from beginning to end, trying to see how he planned to eat the steak with chopsticks.
Even Wan Yiqian, other guests in the Western restaurant, and the waiter looked at Han Jiulin in surprise.
Han Jiulin completely ignored the strange looks from the people around him and ate the steak as naturally as if he were eating Chinese food.
After eating two pieces of steak, he used chopsticks to roll up the black truffle omelette with great skill, and rolled it into an egg roll, then picked it up and ate it in two bites.
Dean couldn't bear to look at him anymore, stood up, and sneered coldly: "This is the first time I've seen someone eating Western food with chopsticks in a Western restaurant so vulgarly.
Your presence has seriously affected this, the only two-Michelin-star Western restaurant in Linyi City, as well as the class and taste of all our guests."
Wan Yiqian's expression changed, she stood up suddenly, and scolded: "You are too presumptuous. How other people eat has nothing to do with you? What qualifications do you have to stand here and talk nonsense?"
Dean looked at Wan Yiqian and said sincerely: "Beautiful lady, don't you think it is very embarrassing to have dinner with this person?"
When he eats Western food with chopsticks, he is no longer the only one who is being disappointed. Even you will be viewed through colored glasses by others.
In fact, his behavior has already disgraced us Chinese people in front of foreigners, and will make foreigners think that we Chinese people are all vulgar people.
As a Chinese who has studied abroad, when I see this kind of thing, of course I have to condemn it."
Han Jiulin slowly put down his chopsticks, took out his napkin, wiped the corners of his mouth gently, then turned to look at Dean and asked, "What's wrong with me eating with chopsticks?"
Dean sneered: "You use chopsticks to eat Chinese food, there is no problem, but this is a Western restaurant, you are eating Western food, and when eating Western food, you should use a knife and fork, not chopsticks!"
"Who stipulated that you must use a knife and fork to eat Western food? Besides, isn't Western food also rice?" Han Jiulin smiled lightly, not impatiently.
Dean sneered: "Does anyone need to stipulate this? This is an established rule! Apart from a country bumpkin like you, who else do you see who eats Western food and knows how to use chopsticks?"
"Foreigners don't know how to use chopsticks and are used to eating with knives and forks. I respect their customs and traditions.
But Chinese people have used chopsticks for thousands of years. This is a Chinese tradition. I eat with chopsticks and I don’t think there is anything wrong with it.”
Han Jiulin said calmly, glanced at Dean, and said, "You, on the other hand, seem to be very proud of the fact that you have studied abroad. In your words, you are also very yearning for foreign cultures?
To put it bluntly, why don’t you stay abroad and why are you back in China?”
Dean smiled proudly and said: "I returned to China just for work needs. I changed my nationality when I graduated from studying abroad. To be precise, I am not a Chinese now, but a native of Eagle Country."
"Oh?" Han Jiulin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Then do you have any opinion on us Chinese people using chopsticks to eat? Do you think chopsticks are not worthy of Western food and are a very vulgar eating tool?"
"Yes, that's what I mean!"
Dean sneered: "Western food is noble and elegant, but chopsticks are vulgar. If you eat Western food with chopsticks, you are insulting Western food!"
"Advocating for foreigners and trying to please others by grandstanding." Han Jiulin sighed softly, shook his head and said, "I advise you to pay attention to your wording.
After all, this is China. You, a foreigner, are openly insulting China’s cultural traditions on Chinese soil. Be careful, I will deport you.”
Dean laughed so loudly that he almost burst into tears. He pointed at Han Jiulin and said, "Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to deport me?"
Han Jiulin didn't speak again, but glanced at Dean coldly.
Dean felt a chill coming over him and an inexplicable creepy feeling.
He was frightened by Han Jiulin's eyes for a moment, and did not dare to talk to Han Jiulin anymore. He turned his eyes, came to Wan Yiqian, bowed and invited: "Beautiful young lady, I think you don't want to be with this person now."
Is it embarrassing for people who eat Western food with chopsticks to sit here together?
After all, there are many international friends around, all looking at this.
I heard your accent just now and I can tell that you must have lived in Eagle Country. Why don't we have dinner together and talk about interesting things about life in Eagle Country?"
Wan Yiqian stared at Dean and asked, "What did you say your name was just now?"
"Dean." Dean said with a gentlemanly smile.
Wan Yiqian sneered and said: "Dean, I have been to Eagle Country, but I just went there to study abroad. I do not deny that I have a certain fondness for Eagle Country, but to me, it is just a period of life.
experience.
I have always loved my motherland deeply, and in my heart, China has always been the best country in the world. I prefer to chat with Chinese people about China’s culture and development, and I am not interested in talking to a foreigner who has forgotten his ancestors and changed his nationality.
People, talk about life in foreign countries."
Dean's expression couldn't help but change.
Wan Yiqian had no intention of stopping and continued: "Also, I don't think there is anything shameful about eating Western food with chopsticks.
As China's international status has increased in recent years, more and more foreigners are learning and understanding China's traditional culture.
Many foreigners who have been to China and are interested in Chinese culture have learned to eat with chopsticks.
And I believe that sooner or later, more and more foreigners will eat Western food with chopsticks.
Because they understand that eating with chopsticks is much more convenient and elegant than a knife and fork.
Moreover, in the eyes of real foreigners, knives and forks are just tools for eating, and they do not feel how noble they are in using knives and forks.
On the contrary, it is you, a foreigner with a shady bloodline, who thinks that knives and forks are noble."
Dean's face gradually turned dark.
As Wan Yiqian finished speaking, many guests around her applauded!
There was a blond woman with blue eyes who spoke pure Chinese dialect and said: "Beauty, what you said is great. In fact, I have lived in China for more than ten years and I have long been accustomed to using Chinese chopsticks. If their Western restaurant is in
When knives and forks are provided, chopsticks are also provided. I will definitely choose chopsticks.
The handsome gentleman just now looked so good eating steak and fried eggs with chopsticks."
After that, the blond woman waved to the waiter: "Waiter, please help me find a pair of chopsticks."
There was also a middle-aged Chinese man who nodded in agreement and said: "The use of chopsticks has a long history. It seems simple, but it is actually full of the wisdom of ancient Chinese people.
Young man, this is no longer thirty years ago. Western food is nothing great, and the moon in foreign countries is not rounder.
You actually think that eating Western food with chopsticks is a vulgar behavior. Based on your values, there is really nothing wrong with changing your nationality.
If you hadn't changed your nationality today and were still Chinese, I would have to scold you.
But now that you have changed your nationality and are no longer Chinese, I am too lazy to talk about you.
After all, for someone like you who can even deny your ancestors and betray your country, even the farts of foreigners are delicious."
Dean suddenly became the target of public criticism!
