"Ah! That was so satisfying, this barbecue tastes really good."
"Indeed!"
Ye Mingshang's way of eating once again attracted attention.
After all, it's rare to see someone who can eat so much and still be slim and good-looking.
Even when watching big eater videos online, people prefer to see those who are slim and attractive; no one wants to watch a three-hundred-pound man eat.
There's nothing to be done; this is just a world that values appearances.
"Ah! I'm full, I'm full."
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Ye Mingshang patted his belly with satisfaction and lay back in his chair, looking as if he had a big stomach.
However, the amazing thing was that despite eating so much, his stomach was not bloated at all; it was quite flat.
Cheng Yi also ate a lot, overwhelmed by the variety of strange and wonderful foods.
Among the group, only Li Mengyu ate less, having a portion similar to that of an average girl. Even though she wouldn't gain weight if she ate more, she didn't like the feeling of being too stuffed.
After finishing their meal, the group was leisurely sipping tea when a well-dressed man with a large belly approached them.
"Hello, sir. I am the manager of this hotel. My name is Nima."
Nima...
Pfft!
Ye Mingshang struggled to suppress his urge to laugh and greeted him, "Hello, is there something I can help you with?"
Nima smiled and said, "It’s like this: our staff has been disrespectful to you. I have already been informed about it, and I sincerely apologize. This is our hotel's gesture of goodwill."
Looking at the small card in Nima's hand, Ye Mingshang shrugged nonchalantly, "No need, I'm not angry."
Meanwhile, Mengyu chuckled lightly: clearly upset just a moment ago, now that he's full, it's as if he forgot everything. He really is like a child.
"No, no, if you did something wrong, you must apologize. This isn't anything valuable, just a membership card. As long as you dine at our establishment in the future, you'll enjoy a Ten Percent Discount and have the chance to challenge the Giant Meal Combo. If you finish it according to the rules, you can qualify for a free meal."
Ye Mingshang raised an eyebrow, "Then I'll accept it."
"Have a great day," the manager smiled.
After the manager left, Cheng Yi curiously asked, "Uncle Ye, what was that card the fat uncle gave you?"
"A membership card."
"What is a membership card? Why did he give you one?"
Ye Mingshang scratched his head, "You have quite a few questions, little fellow."
"A membership card is a symbol of identity and often represents certain privileges. In some places, it's very easy to obtain—almost anyone can get one just by spending money. However, in high-end venues, a membership card can be extremely hard to come by.
A friend of mine opened a five-star hotel, which should now be upgraded to six stars. Only close friends and people of significant status can have his membership card."
"As for this membership card, it shouldn't be too precious, but it's not something everyone has. It's probably only for people like us who have a huge appetite."
Cheng Yi hugged his teacup and blinked his beautiful big eyes curiously: "If such an appetite can earn a membership card, then everyone in the fairyland could have one; they eat way more than Uncle Ye!"
"Our appetite isn't much compared to divine beings, but among humans, it's quite exaggerated. Very few humans have such an appetite," Ye Mingshang said with his arms crossed.
"Why would he give it? It certainly can't be out of goodwill or an apology; businessmen only see profit. I'm not his friend, so he wouldn't be so kind."
"Based on what he just said about the chance to challenge the Giant Meal Combo and getting a free meal if finished, it should be a marketing tactic to attract customers.
This kind of challenge is definitely aimed at people like us with big appetites. The purpose of this card is to give us the qualification to participate in the challenge and serve as living advertisements for them."
As for that "Ten Percent Discount," almost all membership cards have this feature; it can only be considered an addition.
Ye Mingshang said this while spinning the card in his hand as if performing a magic trick.
"Unfortunately, we're leaving tomorrow, so this big eater challenge is destined to have nothing to do with us." After saying this, Ye Mingshang casually tossed the card aside.
Such things held no significance for him; he wouldn't bother carrying this card around for a meal he didn't know when he would have.
He didn't want it, but Cheng, out of curiosity, picked up the card.
Ye Mingshang glanced at him but didn't stop him; as long as he wasn't carrying it, it was fine.
It was rare to have some leisurely time; they couldn't just eat and go to bed early.
As soon as night fell, the fast-paced day ended, and the wonderful nightlife was just beginning.
Ye Mingshang certainly wouldn't take Mengyu to places like KTV or bars.
For him, a good nightlife meant strolling through the snack street, sampling everything, and then taking a couple of portions to a quiet place to enjoy the night view.
However, bringing a child along somewhat spoiled the atmosphere.
Although they had just eaten a lot, people like them had strong digestive abilities and limitless potential.
Even if they were full, they could still eat a lot more, even exceeding what an average person could handle.
What was mentioned earlier referred to ordinary big eaters; practitioners like them were even more formidable.
Holding a portion of unknown Marble from the snack street, Cheng's face was covered in food, radiating happiness.
In front of him, Ye Mingshang and Li Mengyu walked hand in hand, slowly strolling like a couple deeply in love.
"Mengyu," he said, "wouldn't it be great if we could always walk hand in hand like this? When we're old and our hair turns white, we could still do this."
Mengyu smiled happily. "I hope so too, but if we talk about our lifespan, it seems we will only grow old a long, long time from now."
"That would be great! We could have a long, long time to play because youth lasts a long time."
This is the compensation that heaven has given us for being apart for so long.
This sentence was not spoken by Ye Mingshang.
The nights in the plateau region are very cold. It is fine right after the sun sets, but as time goes on, the sky grows darker.
Fewer and fewer people are on the streets.
A geography teacher from middle school once said a saying to describe the climate of such plateau areas.
"Early in the morning wear cotton jackets, by noon wear gauze, gather around the stove to eat watermelon."
Although it sounds exaggerated, it vividly describes the large temperature difference between day and night.
Only people like them, who are not afraid of the cold, can still be out and about at this time.
(To be continued.)
