Chapter 317: Chapter 149 I Want to Go to Sea Too
What Gu Jiuyue called "delicious" was the neatly arranged eight dishes and one soup on the dining table at over six in the morning.
When Su Huai walked into the dining room, he was somewhat bewildered.
My goodness, starting a feast so early in the morning?
Gu Jiuyue, on the other hand, was very calm and asked Su Huai, "Do you want porridge or rice?"
"Uh... I’ll have rice," Su Huai replied.
The chef prepared the meal as if it were a formal dinner, and Su Huai decided to dig in earnestly.
Wu, Andy, and the young nurse sat on the other side of the rectangular dining table, all staring at Su Huai and Gu Jiuyue with eyes spinning.
Looking forward to watching the fun, right?
Su Huai secretly ridiculed in his mind but kept a steady expression on his face.
Then, as he took the rice and looked down, he was almost unable to keep composed again.
"Rice brought from home?"
"Mm-hm," Gu Jiuyue nodded, "Dad won’t let me eat rice from outside."
I’m dizzy, how much random stuff did the logistics department bring you for a stroll out?
However, she was very accustomed to everything she had and, with a spirit of sharing, personally served Su Huai a bowl of soup: "Try the pork bone soup, Uncle Wang has been simmering it since last night."
Chef Wang, holding a small plate, suddenly appeared behind Su Huai, eagerly suggesting, "You can sprinkle some garnish on the soup, Su, choose whatever you like."
Su Huai politely expressed his thanks: "Thank you, Uncle Wang."
Then, looking down, my goodness, there were scallions, cilantro, rosemary, pepper pieces, and unknown leafy greens... an assortment of seven types of herbs to go with the soup.
The milky, rich soup gave off a fragrant aroma. Su Huai carelessly sprinkled some chopped scallions and cilantro on top, picked up a spoon, and took a gentle sip...
Hey, it’s really good!
Rich and fragrant, with a hint of light fragrance, comforting on the palate, and mouthwateringly delicious.
Su Huai felt he didn’t even need to eat the other dishes; just pairing this soup with the stone-cooked rice would suffice for a whole pot.
In comparison, the soups provided in the student cafeteria seemed like nothing more than pot-washing water.
Yet the most satisfying dish on the table was not the soup but a small bowl of red-braised pork with a thick layer of oil—whether it was red-braised pork or Dongpo pork, Su Huai couldn’t tell. In any case, it melted in the mouth, both fat and lean, and when mixed with the sauce and rice, a bowl went down in just two bites.
"Is it good?"
When Gu Jiuyue asked the question, her eyebrows and eyes softened and curved, joy overflowing.
"Delicious!" Su Huai nodded vigorously.
"That’s great, this dish was specially made for you by Uncle Wang," she said.
Su Huai was somewhat pleasantly surprised and quickly offered his thanks, while Chef Wang chuckled and waved his hand dismissively.
"No trouble at all, what’s there to trouble? No one at home can eat heavy oils, and I’ve been out of practice with my expertise in substantial dishes for nearly ten years; I couldn’t be happier if you love and want to eat them."
Su Huai naturally continued the conversation: "That’s fortunate because I have a hearty appetite. I can eat delicate dishes, but they’re not satisfying; big chunks of meat and fish are what really hit the spot, and I genuinely love your braised pork."
"Great, great, great!"
Chef Wang beamed with delight: "Next time an opportunity comes up, I’ll make you a couple of real substantial meat dishes, and we’ll have a drink together!"
Su Huai realized something—people in Gu Jiuyue’s inner circle all had a strong inclination to love everything related to her.
If she treated someone well, then without any need for further relationship-building, everyone was enthusiastic.
If she disliked someone, then no matter how hard one tried to please them, it was useless.
And Su Huai, who had garnered an extremely high Favorability Rating from Gu Jiuyue, enjoyed the treatment of a top-tier honored guest—all the way to the point where he wasn’t even allowed to serve his own rice.
What does it mean to live off the cream of the land?
Following Gu, Su Huai got to experience it.
However, with Su Huai’s emotional intelligence, he naturally wouldn’t treat them like servants; he showed immense patience and respect, building trust and understanding with the team members.
Just after seven, Su Huai felt satisfied and took Gu Jiuyue with him to find their classmates in the apartment up front.
Since it was decided to depart at eight-thirty, most students were still sleeping in, with only a few up and about.
"What should we do?"
"Let’s go for a walk too," Su Huai suggested, leading Gu Jiuyue out of the resort. They didn’t go far, simply strolling along the beach in front of the hotel.
They didn’t talk much and, after walking approximately 1.5 kilometers, returned home.
By then, the students were generally ready, and following Su Huai’s command, they headed straight for Haitang Bay.
Upon arrival, guided by two local tour guides, they boarded the rented "Water Hovercraft" giant hovercraft and a group of young men and women screamed excitedly as they ventured deep into the sea.
The water quality at Haitang Bay was already good, but it wasn’t until heading out to sea that everyone truly understood what good water looked like.
The deepwater zone was a profound blue, spotlessly clean, like a massive gem.
And the closer they got to Wuzhizhou Island, the more the water resembled glass.
The guide, through a loudspeaker, introduced to everyone: "The waters around Wuzhizhou Island are crystal clear and highly transparent. You can see directly down to depths of 6 to 27 meters. The high transparency creates a glass-like sensation, an extremely rare ’glass sea’ in the world, with an exceptional view for semi-submerged sightseeing..."
Among the 50 students in the class, those from the Imperial Capital and other inland provinces accounted for over 80%. Few had ever seen the sea.
Limited by time and financial costs, the first choice for northerners to vacation by the sea would inevitably be cities along the coast of Bohai Bay, such as Qinhuang Island and Qingdao. The beauty of the northern sea is incomparable to that of Sanya, as different as heaven and earth.
For a group of new tender college students from the inland, where had they ever witnessed such beauty?
They were thrilled beyond measure at that moment.
"So beautiful!"
"Wow! Mama, I see the sea!"
"Damn, damn! There are fish in the sea! Look, such clear fish!"
"Don’t be an idiot, stop shouting, don’t expose us as a bunch of inland bumpkins, okay?"
