Chapter 329 - Are You Unable to Drink?
Lee Dahai rubbed his hands together and approached Faang Ying.
“Young Master Faang, I'd like to offer a modest proposal,” he said with a deferential air.
Faang Ying was quite pleased with Lee Dahai.
He thought to himself that if his subordinates were as attentive as Lee Dahai, his days would be filled with joy.
“What's on your mind, Manager Lee?” Faang Ying inquired.
“Young Master Faang, given your illustrious family and indifference to wealth,” Lee Dahai began.
Faang Ying perked up, standing a bit taller; the compliment sat well with him.
?”It's clear to me that you're in high spirits today,” Lee Dahai added.
?”Indeed!” Faang Ying confirmed with a nod.
?”To be frank, the dishes we've served so far are quite pedestrian and hardly befitting someone of your stature.”
Faang Ying had come to demonstrate his influence, and these common offerings did little to showcase his status.
?”What do you suggest, Boss Lee?” Faang Ying prompted.
?Lee Dahai quickly moved to a side cabinet and retrieved a small, yet ornate purple menu.
“Take a look, Young Master Faang. The menu you perused earlier is our standard one, which most patrons use.”
“But for a guest of your esteemed caliber, we reserve our exclusive internal menu.”
“The culinary delights listed here are out of reach for the average diner, but for someone of your means, they represent the pinnacle of global cuisine,” Lee Dahai explained.
?”Is that so?” Faang Ying replied, clearly intrigued.
?He smiled as he opened the menu to reveal the crème de la crème of gourmet offerings, a stark contrast to the unremarkable steaks served earlier.
?”Manager Lee, make a few recommendations. Money is no object,” Faang Ying said casually, leaning back in his chair.
?”With your permission, Young Master Faang, I'll suggest a few selections,” Lee Dahai responded cheerfully.
?”We've just received a shipment of caviar, infused with gold leaf. It's both exquisite and prestigious, truly a top-tier delicacy.”
“Excellent! I'll take four servings,” Faang Ying declared without hesitation.
?”Right away!” Lee Dahai affirmed, using the tablet beside him to place the order.
“There's also the goose liver. Our company raises these geese, and the breed is incredibly rare and costly. Their breeding conditions and diet are strictly controlled, which gives the goose liver a subtle, aromatic fragrance.”
“Four servings, please!” Faang Ying declared without hesitation.
?”And this black truffle.”
“No need for more details. Just help me order! And bring two bottles of your finest Pinot Noir wine!”
“Right away!”
Lee Dahai beamed with joy.
“Young Master Faang is truly generous. We can tell these dishes aren't cheap just by their names,” Su Ming remarked.
?”It's fine. I'm not concerned about the cost,” Faang Ying replied with a casual smile.
?At that moment, Lee Dahai returned, carrying two bottles of red wine.
?”Per Young Master Faang's request, these are the finest two bottles of Pinot Noir wine in our establishment,” he announced.
“They're a limited global edition and the pride of our shop. It's only fitting we extend the best hospitality to Young Master Faang.”
“The price of these two bottles is quite reasonable, only about fifty thousand USD each.”
Initially pleased, Faang Ying's smile stiffened upon hearing the price, and a slight twitch appeared at the corner of his eye.
?The cost of the two bottles amounted to 600,000 yuan!
“Young Master Faang, is something amiss? Are you feeling unwell? Perhaps it's too warm in here?” Lee Dahai inquired, feigning ignorance with a blink.
?”I'm alright,” Faang Ying assured.
“Do you find the wine too pricey? No issue. If it's too much, I can remove them,” Lee Dahai offered.
?Hearing this, Faang Ying's irritation flared.
“Do you think I can't afford the wine?” he snapped, eyes glaring.
?He was clearly displeased.
Su Ming glanced at Lee Dahai and gave a covert nod of approval.
Seeing Su Ming's silent commendation, Lee Dahai's enthusiasm surged.
