Chapter 160: Chapter 0160: What is a Foodie

Tang Ming hesitated, initially wanting to say he wasn’t hungry and wouldn’t eat, just wait for Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli to finish, but upon seeing the countless delicacies in the buffet, everything that flew in the sky or swam in the water seemed to be there!

What attracted Tang Ming even more was the abundance of seafood, such as abalone, lobster, king crab, and so forth. With such a feast before him, his stomach had long been growling, and the gluttonous worms inside were protesting—he had to eat this meal!

"All in, anyway, I’ve only got two thousand on me. If it’s not enough later, the young miss won’t just leave me to die, right?"

Having thought this, Tang Ming picked up a dinner plate and began to load it up. Wherever he went, he nearly swept through all the dishes, and then he found a table and started wolfing down the food.

Li Xiaoli and Liu Mengting wandered around the restaurant for more than ten minutes, finally settling on what they wanted to eat. When they found Tang Ming’s table, they saw it was already full of a variety of foods, especially the large lobsters and hairy crabs. One would have thought they’d stumbled into a seafood market.

"Tang Ming, did you take too much?"

Liu Mengting saw how much Tang Ming had brought over, as if he was afraid others wouldn’t let him eat, and she said in amazement.

"Not at all, Meng Meng sister, you know Tang Ming’s appetite. When he sees tasty food, he can eat the portions meant for more than a dozen people. Just watch, in a bit all of this will be gone."

Li Xiaoli explained.

Liu Mengting’s face was full of shock. With Tang Ming eating like this, could this buffet restaurant not be driven to bankruptcy by him?

Indeed, in less than twenty minutes, while Li Xiaoli and Liu Mengting were still fiddling with lobster shells, the food in front of Tang Ming had already disappeared.

He got up, took his plate, and ran to get more food, especially the seafood, as he ate more, he wanted even more.

Approaching the seafood section, the waiter saw it was Tang Ming, knowing that this guy had taken a lot beforehand, and mistook him for returning the plate, they said with a smile, "Sir, just give me the plate, please."

"Give it to you for what? I’m not full yet."

Tang Ming straight away picked up a lobster and placed it on his plate.

The waiter, seeing he wanted to eat more, quickly said, "You can eat as much as you like here, but please don’t waste any."

"Don’t worry, if anyone wastes food, I’ll beat them up for you."

After Tang Ming said this, another plate was filled up.

He went back to the table and started feasting again. Li Xiaoli pointed at Tang Ming and laughed, "Meng Meng sister, do you see that? That’s what you call a real foodie."

"Yeah, he really can eat, this place is going to be unlucky."

Liu Mengting nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Shen Yan lay on the hospital bed playing with her phone. Her leg was injured and the doctor said she had to lay there for at least three days before she could be discharged, but since her organization was helping with the expenses and considering it a work injury, Shen Yan had no choice but to stay the full three days before returning.

But at noon, an unexpected visitor arrived at the hospital—it was Boss Lei, wearing sunglasses.

Boss Lei was recently in financial trouble, really short on cash, and he didn’t dare to ask Chen Cang for it, so he set his sights on Shen Yan. He had already decided that even if he couldn’t get all the money back, at least he had to get half.

After hemming and hawing on the phone for a long time, Shen Yan finally told him the location of the hospital, so this guy immediately drove over.

Upon finding the ward, Boss Lei looked inside and saw that it was a private room with a nice environment, and instantly he felt displeased. The assassin’s mission had failed, and now after the accident, they still got to stay in such a nice room, whereas he, the one who paid, was running out of resources.

"You’re here?"

Shen Yan saw Boss Lei, put down her phone, leaned back on her pillow and asked.

Even in a patient gown, Shen Yan’s curvaceous figure was unmistakably prominent. If he didn’t realize who she was, Boss Lei might have already been overwhelmed with lust and flirted with her.

"Are you badly hurt?"

Boss Lei asked with feigned concern as soon as he entered the room.

"I got some leg injury, it’s nothing serious. What do you want from me?"

Shen Yan asked directly.

"About that..."

Boss Lei hemmed and hawed:

"I’ve run into some financial trouble with my business lately, and I need some cash, so I wanted to ask if we could cancel the assignment and you could refund me some money."

"Haven’t I told you before that there’s no negotiating on this matter?"

Shen Yan’s face darkened as she spoke coldly.

"You’ve been injured like this and hospitalized, can you even finish the task?"

Boss Lei said with a pained expression, "How about you refund me part of the money, and I find someone else to handle it? Let’s just say I’ve had bad luck, alright?"

"No way, Tang Ming caused me this condition, I have to settle accounts with him. Furthermore, once a task is taken, there’s no canceling it. Do you really think ’Poison Widow’ is playing around here?"

Shen Yan said in a cold voice.

"This won’t work, that won’t work, and you can’t kill the man either, why am I so unlucky?"

Boss Lei, enraged, walked to the door and then suddenly had an idea, "I’ll have someone else take Tang Ming out first, and then if you can’t complete the task, you should be able to refund me the money, right?"

"Even that won’t do. Tang Ming has to die by my hands. If he dies, when I get out of the hospital, you’re the first one I’ll take out. Think it over for yourself."

Shen Yan said with a cold snort.

Fuming with anger, Boss Lei turned and left, and on his way back, after giving it some thought, he called Chen Cang.

"Hey, Young Master Chen, it’s Old Lei here. I wanted to ask if you’ve handled that matter?"

Boss Lei asked cautiously as he drove.

"Handled my ass, don’t ever bring it up again. And another thing, if anyone asks about my business with you, you’re to say nothing. If any word gets out and traces back to me, I’ll kill you first," Chen Cang cursed and then hung up the phone immediately.

On the other end, Boss Lei felt extremely depressed. Why did he get scolded by everyone he reached out to? Did he forget to check the almanac before leaving the house today?

"Damn bad luck."

After cursing, Boss Lei slowly drove home.

In the seafood section of the buffet restaurant, all the dishes were emptied out. No matter how much the kitchen prepared, Tang Ming consumed it all, and this seriously alarmed the restaurant manager.

After receiving the report from his staff, the restaurant manager came to see for himself, and boy! He had never seen anyone who could eat so much. In one sitting, Tang Ming had eaten the equivalent of several dozen people’s portions and still looked unfed. If he was allowed to continue, the manager worried whether today’s seafood stock would be enough for just him!

The manager, wiping off cold sweat, quickly instructed the kitchen to stop preparing seafood for the time being, assuming that Tang Ming would stop and leave. But the manager had clearly miscalculated.

Without seafood, Tang Ming simply switched targets, moving on to other food. Soon all the desserts, snacks, specialty dishes, and so on were taken away by him. Just like before, he didn’t waste anything, eating everything clean, leaving not even a drop of soup.
