Sally was just about to look around the restaurant when she heard Meg's voice, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.
This was obviously a human male. However, unlike those sloppily dressed men with stubble on their faces, this man looked very clean.
He had neat short hair, no stubble on his chin, and a mustache on his upper lip that didn't disgust her. It added a touch of maturity to him, and his black eyes looked very deep.
His clothes were simple black and white, but the cut was very neat and tidy. More importantly, there wasn't a speck of dust on them, which gave her a good impression of Meg.
Although this man was a little thin, he was like a sword when he stood. She had only felt this kind of aura on a human knight who came to the elven race many years ago. The heavy sword was unparalleled, and it left a deep impression on her.
However, the man in front of her was clearly different. He didn't have that kind of sharp aura. Instead, he was more reserved and steady, and didn't look like a knight who could hold a heavy sword.
Humans were a relatively easy race for elves to accept. Of course, that didn't include sloppy humans.
Sally nodded in response to Meg's greeting, and then continued to look around the restaurant.
The restaurant's decor was a little special. It was a mixture of human and other races. For example, there was a gray canyon painted on the wall. It was the famous Valley of Wind in The Wind Forest. Sally had grown up there, so she could recognize it at a glance.
A little further away was a large human city. She had seen a similar painting in her father's study. It should be the capital of the Roth Empire — Rodu.
There were a few other paintings that she could roughly guess which race was famous. Not to mention other things, these paintings alone were enough to prove that the owner of this restaurant was very knowledgeable.
The exquisite chandelier she saw outside was even more exquisite up close. The carvings were so delicate that it was as if it had always been like this.
Meg was also looking at this elf quietly. This was the first time he had seen a female elf. Her facial features were well-defined, and she looked up at the chandelier, revealing her slender neck like a proud white swan.
When Amy grows up, she'll definitely be prettier than her. Meg thought to himself. He couldn't help but smile as he looked at this beautiful elf with admiration. Of course, that was all.
Sally's fingers slid across the surface of the table. She didn't feel the slightest grease. It was as clean as the tables and chairs at home. This calmed her down quite a bit.
Sally couldn't help but take a look at Meg. This man looked to be in his thirties. Compared to the lifespan of elves, which was 800 years, a human's lifespan of only a few decades seemed so short. However, the fact that he owned such an exquisite restaurant made her curious and curious.
Moreover, although this man's gaze had been fixed on her from the moment she entered the room, she did not feel much repulsion because she did not feel the slightest hint of obscenity from his gaze. Other than politeness, the rest was admiration.
Every beautiful woman wouldn't feel repulsed by a handsome man's admiring gaze, and Sally was no exception.
She put down her longbow and quiver on the table, pulled out a chair, and sat down. She looked at Meg and asked politely, "Excuse me, what do you have to eat here?"
"There's a menu on the table. You can take a look." Meg pointed at the menu in her hand.
Sally took the menu and opened it. The comfortable material of the cover made her even more satisfied with the small details in the restaurant. However, when her expectant gaze fell on the empty menu, she was stunned. It was empty?
No, there was a small line of words at the top. Such a big restaurant, decorated so beautifully, only sells one dish?
Sally suddenly felt that she had entered a strange place. Was this the human scam that the wet nurse always mentioned?
"Yangzhou fried rice — 600 copper coins per plate?" After reading the line clearly, Sally was stunned for a moment. She read it again carefully to make sure that she was not mistaken. Then she slowly raised her head and looked at Meg. She narrowed her eyes slightly, trying to see if this man was a scammer.
She wouldn't be surprised if a dish in such a luxurious and exquisite restaurant was sold for 10 gold coins. However, he actually only sold one dish, and it was listed on the menu alone. Moreover, he directly set the price at 600 copper coins. This was not a cheap price.
Last night, she stayed in the hotel, and it only cost her 100 copper coins per night.
Moreover, she had heard of many human delicacies when she was with the elves. What was this so-called Yangzhou fried rice? Was it really worth 600 copper coins? She wanted to find the answer from Meg's face.
However, she soon gave up. Meg kept a calm and indifferent smile on his face, which made people feel comfortable and distant. However, she could not tell what he was thinking.
If it were before, Sally would not have cared about the 600 copper coins. The environment alone was worth spending a gold coin to sit here for a while.
But this time, she only brought a dozen dragon coins with her in a hurry. She had already spent a few of them along the way. She didn't want to run away from home because she didn't have enough money, so she had to be frugal.
600 copper coins per plate was too extravagant for her now. Moreover, this dish did not seem to be very big. She might not even be full after one plate.
"Mr. Mak, I'm here again. Give me two plates of Yangzhou fried rice, one after the other. It's best to eat it while it's hot." At this time, the bell at the door rang, and Mobai's loud and clear voice came in.
"Okay, please wait a moment." Meg was a bit surprised to see Mobai. He must have taken a shower and changed his clothes before coming. He was wearing a short gray coat and trousers, and his shoes were clean and fresh black cloth shoes. He did not bring the heavy hammer that he carried at noon with him, which made Meg feel a bit touched.
"Of course, of course." Mobai nodded with a smile. He looked around the restaurant and was a bit disappointed when he did not see Amy. He glanced at Sally, who was sitting next to him with a longbow in her hand, and quickly withdrew his gaze. He found a random table, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
"Take your time. You can tell me when you want to order." Meg said to Sally, who was still hesitating. Then he turned around and went into the kitchen to prepare the fried rice. Sure enough, regular customers were the best.
"Okay." Sally, who had been vigilant since Mobai entered the restaurant, nodded. Seeing that Mobai did not stare at her like those rude dwarves in her impression, she slowly let go of the longbow in her hand.
"Shall we go or stay for a plate?" Sally was a bit hesitant. She glanced sideways at Mobai, who was sitting next to her and waiting patiently for his food to be served. When he came in, he could not wait to order his food. Is this Yangzhou fried rice really that good?
