"Sorry, they don't have that on the menu," Jingwei said, to break the awkward silence, after taking a quick glimpse of the menu. He wondered if he could order alcohol for himself. He definitely needed it to get through this evening. "There are a lot of French courses instead. Do you want mushroom soup?"
"That'll do for an appetiser, thanks Jingwei," Xingzi smiled at him, before turning to Tianwei. "So what are you having? Or are you planning on achieving immortality by skipping meals?"
"I'll have the lobster and white truffle risotto with chardonnay." Tianwei said. "What about you Jingwei?"
"A steak? Or maybe a beef wellington," His stomach growled in approval. "Can I get a bottle of red wine to go with it?"
"No."
"No."
