With a clap of his hands, Long San ordered the dishes which were promptly brought in by the waiter. Dish after dish filled the table, including beef, mutton, shrimp, and crabs. Nan Feng was particularly fond of a boiling pot of beef in spicy broth, the layer of chili oil warming her from head to toe.
Xue Ling was also particularly keen on the beef, leading to a playful tussle for the dish with Nan Feng.
"You have no idea, I've been eating cold food brought in from outside for a while now. Even though it's from the Inspection Mansion's kitchen, it chills by the time it gets here. My poor stomach has been so uncomfortable. So today, I just want to eat something spicy and hot," Nan Feng said between bites, her nose running due to the spiciness.
"I can relate. The food in the County is a bit too bland for my liking. I too have a nigh unquenchable craving for spicy food," Xue Ling chimed in.
