Chapter 70 How can I tell whether you are a man or a woman?
When he heard footsteps, Guo Jing looked back and saw that it was Su Ming. He ignored Huang Rong and immediately stood up and said respectfully, "Teacher, breakfast is ready."

Su Ming came to the table, lifted his shirt, and sat down gently, "Okay, sit down, no need to be polite outside." Then his eyes swept over the two of them, "Jing'er, who is he?"

Unexpectedly, the moment Huang Rong saw Su Ming, her pupils widened and she thought to herself, this guy is quite good-looking, but why does his temperament seem a little weird, so much like my father?

Guo Jing explained, "Teacher, I just spoke a few words to him, I don't know him."

Just as Huang Rong's eyes were rolling around, and she was about to say something, the waiter came over with two bowls of steaming noodles, shouting, "Noodles are here!"

"Waiter, another bowl please."

"Got it."

Su Ming smiled faintly and ignored her. He held the chopsticks in one hand and the bun in the other and started to eat with relish. As for Huang Rong, she was blatantly ignored by them.

He didn't want to care. Guo Jing thought he was from a wealthy family and didn't want to deal with him.

After going through so much, he is no longer the kind-hearted, honest boy he used to be. He is naturally wary of strangers, even if that guy is Huang Rong.

Su Ming took a bite of the smooth and spicy rice noodles and commented, "The noodles here are better than the one we had yesterday."

Guo Jing nodded as he ate, "Mm, it's a little more spicy, it tastes great."

Huang Rong saw that they ignored her and felt a little resentful for no reason. She snorted coldly, "What's so delicious about this? You probably haven't seen anything really delicious yet."

Su Ming looked up at her with a playful smile, "Tell me what delicious food you have, so that we can broaden our horizons."

When it comes to food, that's her home turf. Huang Rong perked up and listed all the dishes in the Zhen family, "Four dried dishes, four fresh dishes, four candied fruits, four cold dishes, three sweet dishes, and four dim sum. Have you heard of this?"

Su Ming's expression remained unchanged, while Guo Jing looked bewildered. Seeing their expressions, Huang Rong looked very proud. "The four dried fruits are lychee, longan, steamed dates, and ginkgo. The four fresh fruits are peach, apple, lychee, and water chestnut. The four candied fruits are rose kumquat, fragrant grape, sugar-coated peach strips, and pear flesh good man."

"I guess you've tried one or two of the four cold dishes. I'll still order whole lamb liver, braised crab legs, poached chicken, fried spareribs, and three sweet dishes: lotus seed porridge, almond tea, and steamed eight-treasure rice. I'll also order four dim sum: lotus seed cake, lama cake, fried dumplings, and fried yuanxiao."

Huang Rong finished speaking in one breath and looked at them proudly, like a general returning from victory.

Su Ming drank a mouthful of soup and asked, "So, you have eaten all these things?"

Huang Rong raised her chin, "Of course."

Guo Jing said with a hint of emotion, "I didn't expect that there are so many particulars about food. It really broadens my horizons. There are many people in this world who can't even afford to eat and live in hunger. For us, it's enough to have food that fills us up and is edible. There's no point in making so many things fancy. Only a rich kid like you can enjoy so many delicacies." There was obvious alienation and hostility in his attitude.

Huang Rong thought she would be praised, but she didn't expect Guo Jing to be so stubborn. She immediately glared at him, "What did you say?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Su Ming didn't want to start a fight over a meal, so he tried to smooth things over, "Okay, Jing'er, everyone has their own destiny, we don't need to interfere." Then he looked at Huang Rong again, "I will try the things you mentioned in the future, little girl, thank you for telling me."

Little girl?
Guo Jing was stunned. He didn't expect that the girl in front of him was a woman. Huang Rong's big, flashing eyes showed a hint of panic. She stood up and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Su Ming put down his chopsticks and said seriously, "The male rabbit's feet are confused, the female rabbit's eyes are blurry, and the two rabbits are walking side by side. How can I tell whether you are a male or a female? Little girl, your disguise can fool most people, but not me. You should go home quickly to avoid worrying your family."

When talking about her family, Huang Rong suddenly became depressed and stopped talking.

Guo Jing couldn't help feeling a little ashamed when he thought about how he had bullied a little girl who ran away from home.

Su Ming knew that Huang Rong was scolded by Huang Lao Xie and then sneaked out, but he did not try to persuade her. Huang Rong was eccentric and had her own ideas, and no one could persuade her. Besides, persuading people is one of the stupidest things in the world. Some things are better left to the person involved to think clearly.

With Huang Rong's ability, she would have no problem protecting herself if she encountered trouble. Speaking of which, among the Five Great Masters, Wang Chongyang, who Su Ming wanted to see the most, had already passed away, and the next one was Huang Lao Xie. Except for his bad temper, he had almost no shortcomings and was a rare all-rounder.

The three of them sat at the table in silence. Su Ming and Guo Jing held their bowls and slowly slurped noodles and ate buns. Huang Rong was immersed in her own emotions, unable to extricate herself.

During this time, many guests came upstairs to eat, and the quiet hall gradually became lively.

"The noodles are here." The waiter put the noodles down and left.

"Little girl, you haven't eaten yet. No matter whether this thing tastes good or not, just fill your stomach first." Su Ming pushed the steaming rice noodles in front of Huang Rong, turned around and left.

Guo Jing was still standing there in a daze, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.

"Jing'er, aren't you leaving yet?"

The sound came from the stairs, Guo Jing woke up instantly and followed.

Huang Rong looked at the noodles in front of her and the cold mutton buns on the table. Her eyes reddened. She picked up the chopsticks, picked up a handful of noodles and put it into her mouth. The spicy taste instantly exploded in her mouth. She didn't know if it was because of the spiciness or what, but tears fell into the bowl.

She ate the noodles in big mouthfuls, without any ladylike demeanor. The dark powder on her face was washed away, leaving two marks, which looked very funny.

On the way back to the room, Su Ming asked casually, "It seems that you didn't have a good chat with her?"

Guo Jing replied sullenly, "She teased the guy selling buns and threw the buns to the dog. I don't like wasting food. My mother taught me that food is hard to come by and every grain of rice in the bowl should be eaten cleanly. She must be a girl who ran away from home secretly. She is not the same as me."

"Oh? Who do you think you are?"

Guo Jing was suddenly stunned. What kind of person was he? He seemed to have never thought about this question before.

Su Ming smiled, turned around and went back to his room, leaving Guo Jing alone in deep thought. There was a desk near the window in the room, with pens, ink, paper and inkstone on it. Although they were not fine products, they were sufficient.

He came to the desk, poured some clean water, picked up the ink stick and ground it carefully. After a while, the ink stick dissolved and the fine ink spread across the inkstone.
