Space and Rebirth: The Favored Genius Doctor and Businesswoman - chapter 58 - Embarrassing Yourself (自找难堪)

Xiao Haiqing was worried that Jing Yunzhao didn’t have that much cash on her. She wanted to remind her of that and take out some money of her own to use. However, she was afraid she would hurt Jing Yunzhao’s pride. Xiao Haiqing was troubled.

However, Jing Yunzhao was acting as if she wasn’t bothered by this at all. She only nodded and sat down.

The dishes were ordered beforehand. Jing Yunzhao was also hungry and since it was just the two of them, she had no need to hold herself back and told the server to start serving the food.

Xiao Haiqing’s family was well off. When she was ordering, she didn’t think about it too much. But now, seeing dish after dish of exquisite and expensive things being brought in, she began to feel restless.

The appetizers were acceptable, but then…

“(桂蚌伴珠情绵绵), (鸳鸯翡翠金腰带), Dragon Swimming Within the Waves (碧波游龙情意长), Soaring Dragon and Pheonix (龙凤振翅冲天飞)…”

(T/N: They’re just really fancy names for dishes.)

In actuality, they were just (酱炒玉带) garlic fried lobster, (蒜蓉龙虾) traditionally steamed grouper, (古法蒸石斑) seafood shark fin soup (鱼翅佛跳墙)…”

Of course, this was just a small part of it. To beat Ye Qing, Xiao Haiqing ordered more of the expensive dishes. Haiqing didn’t know the names of these dishes. Even in her mouth, they tasted foreign. Plus, Jing Yunzhao had never even heard of some of the ingredients in these dishes.

“Um… Yunzhao, I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I let you paid for all of this. How about we each pay half?” Xiao Haiqing said, trying to test Jing Yunzhao’s limits.

Jing Yunzhao was eating quite happily: “No need. I already said I will treat you. It’s okay to have leftovers. I’ll take some home later. I have two friends I’m living with. It can last for quite a few days.”

After Jing Yunzhao said that, Xiao Haiqing felt guiltier: “It’s all my fault! All I thought about was being sated. I don’t have a sense of propriety.”sated. I don’t have a sense of propriety.”

“It’s okay as long as you understand. Wasting is shameful, so eat without holding back. Let’s clean up these plates!” Jing Yunzhao continued. Since no one else was in the room, she rolled up her sleeves. Her image changed.

“And I thought that all good students were unsociable and eccentric. I didn’t think you were like this in private,” Xiao Haiqing said with a bitter face, trying hard to not laugh. Her expression was becoming more and more interesting.

However, Xiao Haiqing sighed to herself. Jing Yunzhao’s actions might have been slovenly, but they did not seem vulgar in the slightest. If these actions were to be done by someone else, it would be completely different.

Seeing how Jing Yunzhao was eating so enjoyably, Xiao Haiqing couldn’t help but lick her lips. She gave up and said, “Slow down, leave some for me… Ahhhh! This is delicious! Another bite, don’t snatch from me…”

The two ate enjoyably but the door to their box was suddenly opened.

“Customers, the customers downstairs has gifted you a plate of Wealth and Prosperity (大富大贵). Please enjoy.” The server politely brought it in. The two of them looked and only saw some leftover onions with tofu.

The customers downstairs? Who else would it be if not Ye Qing?

Before Xiao Haiqing could even speak, Jing Yunzhao took the dish beside her and gave it to the server, “Please gift this back and tell the girl who gave us the dish… tell her that this dish tastes pretty good. I want her to try it. If she asks for the dish name or ingredients, just answer her honestly.”

Jing Yunzhao was not so generous. The dish she sent in return was indeed expensive. It was named Coral Hundred-Flower Abalone (珊瑚百花鲍). However, the plate only had a little bit of the gravy and decorations left. The price of this dish was over one thousand and six hundred yuan. When Ye Qing sees it, she would definitely vomit blood in anger.

Jing Yunzhao never had intentions of showing off, but Ye Qing was the one who provoked her. It would’ve been okay if they had just eaten the meal in peace yet Ye Qing still wouldn’t let them go. She was just looking to embarrass herself.

@Anonwhosuggested3chaps/day This is Foreverhungry. I’m going to be rude af and swearing will be involved, for those uninvolved and still reading this please understand. First of all, we recieved an ask. The ask: ‘chapts are already short !! and there is more than 1000 chapters waiting ! so 1 chapter a day is torture ! at least 3 chapters a day would be enough !! thank uu’ Okay. I understand your need for more chapters because I too was a reader before i joined ethocra and garlic bread in translating. “At least 3 chapters a day would be enough” Okay let’s do this: you find two others, create your own translation group, continue translating this :) IMAGINE THE WORKLOAD OF /AT LEAST/ 3CHAPS PER DAY AND INCLUDE IT WITH YOUR IRL ISSUES AND ASSIGNMENTS AND ITS NEEDY CONSTANT WHINING Translating a chapter isn’t just *copies raw text* *Throws raw text into some online translator or another* *posts* It needs us to actually read it, translate it, search up words we don’t know because fuck chinese it’s the bane of my existence, somehow fit the phrases and  grammar so it doesn’t sound cringe worthy, checking the translations and matching it with the raws so we know we didn’t deviate or change the base meaning of what the author was trying to express, fucking proofread it and edit the bloody thing because we want the best for our readers and not jumbled sentences. THIS TAKES AT LEAST 4H BECAUSE REDUNDANT THINGS CALLED TIME ZONES EXIST. THERE HAVE BEEN CHAPTERS THAT TAKE US ABOUT 2 DAYS TO COMPLETE ITS WHOLE CYCLE YOU WHO DONT KNOW HOW TO EMPATHISE OR EVEN SYMPATHISE WITH OTHERS, TRY THINKING OF OUR WORKLOAD IT’S NOT LIKE I CAN FREELOAD AT SOMEONES PLACE AND ASK THEM TO FEED ME WHILE I DO THIS FOR YOU WE HAVE WORK. WE HAVE SCHOOL. WE HAVE ACCURSED THINGS CALLED ASSIGNMENTS AND PROJECTS AND PRESENTATIONS NOT ONLY THAT, YOU’RE EVEN TRYING TO ASK US FOR MORE WHEN WE’RE ALREADY PUTTING OUR BEST IN THIS. IT’S THE SAME AS ASKING US TO GIVE UP OUR LIFE AND DEVOTE IT TO SERVING YOU AND NOT GIVE A SINGLE FUCK ABOUT OUR FUTURE. Are you gonna take responsibility? You gonna raise me and feed me and pay for my expenses? We’re not even asking for a single cent from anyone so I don’t see why we deserve this and why we’re obliged to listen to your advice. Do not. Say that 'oh I didn’t force you to follow that advice chill’. You very obviously did when you said 'at least 3 chapters is enough!!’, like i give a fuck whether it’s enough for you? Talk to those people trasnlating chapters like once in 3 months and ask them to hurry up. I admit our chapters are short, but we make up for it by trying to post chapters as fast as we can. Also we’re more clear than anyone how many chapters are left and how much more we have to do before this series is completely translationed. It’s quite long but relatively normal. And while I can’t say i didn’t think of doing more chapters per day, but imagine the amount of work we have to do. Imagine the amount of time we have to spend just for this. Imagine how sloppy the work would be because “shit we have to upload 3 chapters today or they’re gonna kill me but it hasn’t been editted fuck who cares they asked for it *throws you half done work*” I had compared us to GDBBM, but i was enlightened by the fact that a)we’re understaffed, b) we’re not as proficient in chinese, c) Their chapters are actually shorter than ours and d)We. Are. Not. Obliged. Wait your ass for the fucking chapters, otherwise just read the bloody raws . ((No i’m still angry at you even though you put it so amicably, in fact that just pissed me off even more)) 'thank uu’ Also honestly you caught us at a bad time i wasn’t kidding when i said i was swamped with assignments. We are trying our best to push chapters out, but don’t get your hopes up

This is ethocra. You really sent an ask at the wrong time. I really hope you didn’t send that ask because of what I wrote in the beginning of chapter 55…

this is garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread garlic bread all work and no play makes garlic bread a dull bread
