Chapter 297: Chapter 136: Nice Body? Too Bad You Met Boss Su.
"A low-oil, low-salt Stir-Fried Yellow Beef."
Su Chen scooped the stir-fry into a small bowl and casually asked, "Want a bowl of rice with that?"
Shen Ning shook her head.
’Carbs?’
’You’ve got to be kidding me. She couldn’t even remember the last time she’d eaten a staple food; it had to have been years ago.’
"No, thank you. I hope it’s good."
Whether it was good or not, the dish met Shen Ning’s expectations: no added oil, no added salt.
The small bowl of stir-fry was a colorful mix of greens and other vegetables, with pieces of beef hidden among them. Plus, there wasn’t a trace of grease at the bottom of the bowl.
Even the surfaces of the vegetables didn’t have that glistening sheen of oil you’d see on other people’s food.
’Hmm, feels healthy!’
Delighted, she carried the stir-fry to an empty seat and sat down.
First, she leaned in and took a sniff.
’It doesn’t have any particular smell...’
Then, she skillfully navigated her chopsticks past all the vegetables, precisely picked up a piece of beef, examined it for a few moments, and placed it in her mouth.
"Tender, not salty, not oily, a very normal flav... HSSS!!!"
After chewing a few times, Shen Ning’s expression suddenly changed.
’Damn it!’
’How is it so spicy!’
’And...’
’The beef is so soft and tender! I clearly saw him not add any seasonings while he was cooking it, so why?!’
Umami, aromatic, spicy.
Although the first bite wasn’t salty, after a few chews, a saltiness began to spread through her mouth—the kind that got saltier the more she chewed!
And with every chew, she could taste the celery and Cilantro.
’This is way too good, isn’t it?’
Everyone knows that with meat dishes, as long as there’s enough salt, they’re generally not going to be bad.
Without salt, no matter how well it’s cooked, it tastes like chewing wax.
Shen Ning swallowed the meat in her mouth and, in disbelief, picked up another piece of beef and eagerly stuffed it into her mouth.
’Incredible!’
’It didn’t have any special flavor when I first started eating, but it gets more and more fragrant the more I chew. I feel like I want to savor every single bite...’
Another bite went down.
Shen Ning completely forgot about her Plan A and Plan B. She immediately scooped up a large mouthful of the beautiful green and red line peppers, mixed with Cilantro and beef, and shoved it into her mouth.
’Mmph! Oh my god, what is this heavenly sensation?’
Chew, chew, chew, chew.
The more she chewed, the more flavorful it became; the more she chewed, the more delicious it was!
This was clearly Stir-Fried Yellow Beef, but eating it felt like the flavor would never run out. She simply couldn’t stop!
"SMACK, SMACK~"
Su Chen watched the fitness coach through the side windscreen.
’Heh... Fitness?’
’Perhaps you should get acquainted with Stir-Fried Yellow Beef.’
The more she ate and the more furiously she chewed, the more Shen Ning felt as if a raging fire had ignited in her mouth. The natural spiciness of the line peppers began to sear every one of her taste buds.
’I really want...’
"A bowl of rice!"
Her mouth was faster than her brain. Before her mind could even figure out what it wanted, her mouth blurted it out—a true reflection of her heart’s desire!
She couldn’t hold back anymore, she just couldn’t!
Shen Ning had only one thought: wouldn’t it be a terrible waste not to have a bowl of rice with such a delicious stir-fry?
’Hmm... the calories from one bowl of rice, it’s not a big deal, right? I’ll just burn it off with an extra half-hour workout at home tonight!’
Bai Xiaobo brought over a bowl of rice, his eyes sweeping over Shen Ning.
’What a great figure... Too bad you ran into Boss Su.’
SMACK, SMACK!
Unlike Zhan Yang, who liked to mix his food with rice, Shen Ning would take a large bite of the stir-fry, chew it for a long while, and then stuff a mouthful of rice in after.
While alleviating the spiciness, the lingering fragrance in her mouth blended perfectly with the clean aroma of the rice.
’Sho good, sho good, want more!’
Shen Ning buried her head in her food, letting out an occasional smack of her lips, completely unaware that at this very moment, not too far away from her...
...four women were peeking furtively in her direction.
"Isn’t that Coach Shen?"
"It’s definitely Coach Shen. Even though her face is buried in her bowl, I’d recognize that figure anywhere!"
"Then what do we do? If we go over to eat now, won’t we be caught red-handed?"
After visiting a nearby sauna to shower and change into fresh clothes, the group of wealthy ladies had transformed from fitness enthusiasts into Jingzhou Socialites.
They had happily come to the Pedestrian Street, ready to sample the handsome young man’s late-night snacks, only to witness this scene.
"Didn’t Coach Shen say she eats fitness meals every day? What’s the deal with this Stir-Fried Yellow Beef?"
"Dunno! Maybe Coach Shen will just work out harder after eating this to burn off the calories."
A young woman in a loose-fitting jumpsuit said impatiently, "So what do we do now? Are we going or not?"
"How can we? We’ll be caught if we go. Why don’t we just go somewhere else?"
But another woman, wearing a blue satin dress, said, "Why not? The coach is eating it, so why can’t we? As long as we aren’t embarrassed, Coach Shen will be the one who is!"
As soon as she said this, she immediately won everyone’s support.
’You’re the coach and you’re eating it, so why can’t we?’
’It’s just an extra workout, right? Worst case, we all do it together!’
After exchanging a look, the women straightened their backs and were about to walk over when they suddenly saw Shen Ning, who had been hunched over her food, sit up.
"Wait!" The woman in the lead raised her arm to stop them. "She’s about to leave. Let’s go over after she’s gone!"
"Mhm, yeah. Even though she’d be the embarrassed one, it’s still best if we don’t run into her."
The words had barely left her mouth when a clear and resonant voice drifted over.
