Chapter 44 - 44 42 I Really Don't Need It

44: Chapter 42 I Really Don’t Need It 44: Chapter 42 I Really Don’t Need It This old place is actually a large food stall.

However, this food stall is somewhat unique as it brings together stir-fries, barbecues, hot pots, and spicy hot pots.

Although it’s still early, there are already quite a few seats taken, showing that the business here is pretty good.

What caught Tangyu’s attention, though, was that most of the customers were surprisingly junior and senior high school students.

They were either eating barbecue or enjoying spicy hot pots along with some other snacks.

Looking around, Tangyu realized that there was a school about two to three hundred meters away from this large food stall.

“Hehe, you guys are here, how many people in total?” A middle-aged woman, cheerful like a kindly aunt, came over to greet them.

Wang Dazhuang and his group were clearly regulars here.

Wang Dazhuang said, “Eleven of us, could you help us push together some tables?

Two of these tables should be just about enough.”

“Alrighty, you guys are early, there are plenty of seats.” The lady boss smiled and signaled to someone to start setting things up.

Soon, two large tables were pushed together.

It was a bit of a squeeze, but it could still fit around a dozen people.

Zhong Tiennan and their group of five hadn’t arrived yet, so Wang Dazhuang gestured for everyone to sit first.

“We’re close to the city’s primary school, which somewhat relates to the bustling business of this food stall.

Since the students often come here to eat, the hygiene here is impeccably maintained, and no one has ever reported any issues with the food.

This not only attracts numerous patrons from around the area but also highlights that the owner’s cooking skills are exceptional; the taste is great, and once you’ve eaten here, you’ll want to come back,” Wang Dazhuang explained.

Tangyu smiled faintly and said, “You guys really have a knack for finding good places, coming all this way.”

Wang Dazhuang grinned, “Of course!

I’m a gourmet after all.

I’m particular about what I eat and always look for the best spots.

But talking about food stalls, this place is definitely the tastiest I’ve tried.”

“Yeah right, Wang Dazhuang, you’re just a foodie.

But I’m really curious,” Zhou Mei said bluntly, “how can you eat so much and still stay so thin?

Are you defying the laws of physics or what?”

“Ah…” Wang Dazhuang sighed but had a slightly proud look on his face as he said, “The highest realm for a foodie is to eat without ever getting fat.

My magic is something you all don’t understand.

Are you jealous?

Don’t you wish you could eat without gaining weight?”

As a result, he received a decisive sneer from the women, of course, a sneer of envy.

Most women love to eat but constantly remind themselves not to overdo it, worrying about gaining weight.

Thus, when it comes to eating, they often feel conflicted.

“Stop focusing on me.

Today’s protagonist is actually Tangyu,” Wang Dazhuang said.

Zhong Xiaoling rolled her eyes at him and said, “You always talk too much, stealing the spotlight.”

“Er, alright, I’ll shut up now,” Wang Dazhuang said sheepishly, closing his mouth.

Tangyu smiled and said, “Feel free to order whatever you like.

The important thing is to have fun when you’re out.

Wang Dazhuang livening up the atmosphere is quite nice.

I’m not good at this; I can’t really talk much, so don’t laugh at me.”

Wang Dazhuang looked at Tangyu with a touch of emotion in his eyes, as if to say, ‘you really get me; energizing the crowd is my specialty.’

In this group, Wang Dazhuang was undoubtedly the most active participant in any activity.

“Tangyu, you’re quite reserved and steady.

Although you’re not much of a talker, I can tell you are cold on the outside but warm on the inside,” Zhong Xiaoling said, her voice soft and coquettish.

Tangyu chuckled and touched his nose, thinking to himself: Actually, I’m just a bit introverted.

About five minutes later, Zhou Liang and his group of five finally arrived, and all eleven people sat down, albeit a bit cramped.

Tangyu sat between Zhong Xiaoling and Wang Dazhuang.

The squeeze brought him very close to Zhong Xiaoling, and her leg inadvertently ended up on his.

Sitting close to a beautiful woman’s leg would typically be a very fortunate thing, but Tangyu dared not dwell on it.

If Zhong Xiaoling genuinely took a liking to him, that would be troublesome.

Admittedly, Zhong Xiaoling was quite attractive, but Tangyu did not prefer her type.

Being friends was fine, but anything beyond that was not what Tangyu wanted.

Of course, taking a little advantage without making it obvious, when offered freely, was not to be wasted.

Tangyu remained composed while letting Zhong Xiaoling’s leg rest against his.

Having a few bold, open-minded friends who also looked fairly good was undoubtedly a blessing for any man, as many would surely enjoy.

As today’s host, Tangyu couldn’t be too neglectful.

It wouldn’t do to leave everything for Wang Dazhuang to arrange.

Seeing that everyone had gathered, Tangyu said, “Let’s go ahead and order some food; don’t be shy, just order a bunch.

It’s still early, so let’s take our time and enjoy.

It’s not just about eating out; having a good time is what’s most important.”

“Haha, Tangyu is right.

Having fun is what matters most.

Let’s not be reserved today, just let it all hang out.

We’re not stopping until we’re drunk, whether it’s with lite or regular beer,” a tall, thin man said.

His name was Zhong Tiennan, and he looked slightly sleazy, earning him the nickname Sleazy Guy, which also played off his last name.

He didn’t react negatively to this nickname; he was rather easy-going.

“Sleazy Guy, can you handle it?

You have the smallest stomach here.

How many beers can you actually handle?” Wang Dazhuang immediately teased.

Not to be outdone, Zhong Tiennan shot back, “I can’t say for certain, but when it comes to drinking, I definitely won’t fall behind you.

I’ve trained for this.

What do you say?

How about we go head-to-head?”

Wang Dazhuang immediately seemed a bit weaker as he responded, “Forget it.

I’m scared of you.

You drink like there’s no tomorrow, and I really don’t want to tick you off.”

“Haha!”

The atmosphere was very lively, everyone was talking and laughing, which quickly narrowed the gap between Tangyu and everyone else.

The orders were placed quickly, some dishes were selected, with barbecue as the main course.

Of course, at the request of the four girls, they also ordered a hotpot, making it a real mix.

Not much beer was ordered, just two boxes, but they ordered six bottles of liquor.

It might seem like a lot, but it actually wasn’t.

You have to understand that besides Wen Jing, who didn’t drink much, everyone else was a veteran in the drinking scene.

Who didn’t have the capacity to drink a kilogram or two of liquor?

The six bottles of liquor just added up to six kilograms, and when distributed, it was just over half a kilogram per person.

Drinking beer was too expensive, so everyone decided to focus on liquor, of course, they also drank beer, using it to pace themselves.

If they were to drink only beer, even ten or more boxes wouldn’t get them drunk.

Since there were few people now, the food was served quickly.

Wang Dazhuang took on the role of a waiter energetically, opening the liquor and helping everyone pour it, starting off with beer to set the mood.

Tangyu raised his glass and said to everyone, “For this first toast, let’s all do it together.

Thanks everyone for showing such favor, from now on, we are friends.”

“Crap, don’t sound so cheesy.

No need for more talking, let’s just drink.

Here’s to deepening our friendship with a big gulp,” blurted out Wang Dazhuang, his casual manner obvious.

After downing a glass, Wang Dazhuang took the lead again, “Eat, eat, now everyone just go for it.

Today Tangyu’s the main character, we need to take good care of him.

You guys go ahead, I’ll back you up, don’t be polite.

Tangyu’s drinking capacity is absolutely solid, plus, he’s a tough guy.”

Tangyu glared at Wang Dazhuang and said, “You’re trying to get me drunk, aren’t you?

You’re up to no good.”

“Nah, I’m not interested in your behind.

If the ladies dare, they can keep pouring.

Tangyu, I’m not helping you out here, you’re the main character today, you’re destined to drink more,” Wang Dazhuang said.

Tangyu put his arm around Wang Dazhuang and said, “If there’s trouble for a brother, shouldn’t you help out?

If you consider me a brother, then cover for me later.”

“Ahem, what was I saying earlier?

Ah, I forgot.

Today’s moon is so round—oops, my mistake, the sun hasn’t set yet, hmm, the dusk is really nice, let’s eat,” Wang Dazhuang immediately looked up at the sky.

“Haha—” Everyone burst into laughter.

The atmosphere grew even more intense.

It was a truly enjoyable feeling, at least it was Tangyu’s first time experiencing this joy of eating, drinking, joking, and teasing with friends.

He was starting to love life outside more and more.

Thinking back to his life in Ghost Doctor Valley, it now seemed dull and tasteless, always dealing with patients or medicines or something.

Zhong Xiaoling suddenly put a bunch of chives in Tangyu’s bowl and said, “Eat more chives, they’re nourishing.”

“Pff—”

Wang Dazhuang, who had just taken a sip of his drink, sprayed it all out, fortunately twisting his head to spray outside.

A hint of shyness appeared on Tangyu’s face; he knew all too well what chives were good for—men ate them for strength in certain areas.

Zhong Xiaoling asking him to eat more chives was hinting at him needing to strengthen his virility, right?

Thinking back to what happened in the car earlier, Wang Dazhuang couldn’t help but smirk mischievously, gleefully watching Tangyu.

“I don’t need to eat that,” Tangyu felt it necessary to clarify this issue.

Joking aside, his masculine energy was always robust; did he even need more strength?

Although the others were unaware of what happened in the car, they sensed something fishy and looked over.

Zhong Xiaoling said meaningfully, “Even if you don’t like them, you should eat more, it’s beneficial for certain aspects.”

“I really don’t need it,” Tangyu said.

“You definitely need it, eat up, don’t try to be tough.

That aspect of a man can’t be argued with, don’t be shy, everyone here can understand.

I specifically ordered extra chives for you,” Zhong Xiaoling said.

Wang Dazhuang laughed so hard he was bent double, almost having a laughing fit.

The others also started chuckling, catching the implication behind Zhong Xiaoling’s urging for Tangyu to eat chives.

Now everyone was curious—how could Zhong Xiaoling be so convinced Tangyu needed to bolster that aspect?

Could it be she had actually tempted Tangyu?

Tangyu was somewhat at a loss for words, such a big hat was thrust upon him, it seemed he just had to wear it, “Alright, I’ll eat.”

“Haha—” Wang Dazhuang burst into laughter, clutching his belly, “I can’t anymore, it’s killing me, I’m laughing so hard my stomach hurts.

Beautiful Xiaoling, stop teasing Tangyu, will you?”

“Not at all, I’m quite serious,” Zhong Xiaoling said.

“Alright then, continue, let me have another laugh,” Wang Dazhuang said.

Tangyu glanced at Zhong Xiaoling, who looked ‘serious’.

An evil thought crossed his mind—if she didn’t believe in him that much, maybe he had to take her, let her be overwhelmed with pleasure, to change her opinion?
