Tycoon: I can see the goddess's wish list

Luofeng shook his head. "We're all about to part ways, so I need to arrange a proper send-off for my three brothers!"

"..."

The others were silently speechless.

Aren't you the one leaving? And you're sending the three of us off? Damn, you're incredible.

"You're such a good brother!" Xu Shaoyuan said mockingly.

"Haha, exactly, this kind of brotherhood is truly something else!" Zheng Zeyao also chimed in.

After a bit of teasing, Luofeng pondered silently for a few minutes before suggesting, "How about we go to a place called Tai Shi Pufferfish? Let's have a Pufferfish Feast?"

Luofeng thought about it; those high-end luxury restaurants were actually just so-so. The best place to eat was one that suited him.

"Damn it, Luofeng, are you really planning to send us off for good?"

"I don't think I've offended you, have I?"

"Shivering with fear!"

"Isn't Pufferfish supposed to be extremely poisonous?"

Luofeng rolled his eyes. "Someone took me to eat it in Capital City; it's really delicious. A Pufferfish Feast shouldn't be a problem. Farmed Pufferfish have their toxins removed. I've checked this place out; it's run by a chef with twenty years of experience, and the chef has to taste it first as a sign of respect. So, you can all boldly enjoy it. My taste isn't that different from yours. If I can get used to it, you guys will definitely be fine too. If it really doesn't work out, we can just go somewhere else."

Luofeng also wanted to share the delicious food with them. It wasn't just that he himself wanted to eat.

"Then, Brother Feng, you eat first?"

"Hahaha, no problem," Luofeng nodded without hesitation. Pufferfish poisoning? Possible? I should check with my danger foresight.

Actually, Luofeng wasn't lying.

Modern farmed Pufferfish all have their toxins removed.

Even if it were poisonous? The chef tasting it first is a gesture of respect, not a death sentence, right?

Soon, the group arrived at the Tai Shi Pufferfish restaurant.

"Welcome, sirs!" A middle-aged man immediately came out to greet them, perhaps having seen their 2.7 million yuan luxury car.

"Hello, I have a reservation. My surname is Luo."

"Good evening, Mr. Luo, your private booth has been arranged!" He Xiaochun said with a beaming smile, ushering them in.

Soon, the four of them were in a private room overlooking the river.

"I've ordered Pufferfish sashimi, Red cooked Pufferfish, and four grilled ones, plus a stewed soup," Luofeng said, looking at the ordering tablet. "Take a look, do you need anything else?"

He then handed the tablet to them.

"Pufferfish and all that... I'm afraid I won't be used to it. I'll order a Steamed Grouper," Li Jie said helplessly. "You ordered all Pufferfish. I really feel like you're up to no good, like you want to poison us."

"Sir, actually, the texture and taste of Steamed Grouper are far inferior to Pufferfish," He Xiaochun remarked from the side.

"Hehe! But I want to try it!" Li Jie chuckled.

He Xiaochun said, "Actually, sir, please rest assured. Our Pufferfish are all non-toxic, and the chef tastes them first!"

"I'll stick with the Steamed Grouper!" Li Jie said.

Xu Shaoyuan chimed in from the side, "Change it to Pufferfish. We've already ordered so much Pufferfish. Since we agreed on a Pufferfish Feast, let's not get difficult. It's such a big restaurant; I don't believe it's actually poisonous!"

"Brother Yuan gets it," Luofeng gave a thumbs up.

"Alright, you eat second then."

Xu Shaoyuan indicated it was no problem. "If we're eating, let's eat!"

In the end, they replaced the Steamed Grouper with Steamed Pufferfish. The price went from 288 yuan to 1,888 yuan.

"I ordered four salt-and-pepper Pufferfish. Brothers, if we get hit, all four of us go down together."

"Damn you, you can go down by yourself," Xu Shaoyuan shot a glare at Zheng Zeyao.

Watching the four young men joking around, He Xiaochun felt a flash of envy.

However, Luofeng glanced at the prices. This Pufferfish Feast was indeed high-class. The Pufferfish sashimi was 1,999 yuan. The Red cooked Pufferfish was 2,222 yuan. The grilled ones were 888 yuan each. All together, it already exceeded ten thousand yuan.

Luofeng casually ordered some vegetables, along with drinks and alcohol.

「About half an hour later」

The first to arrive was the relatively simple salt-and-pepper Pufferfish.

Luofeng glanced at it. No danger indicated. So, it was definitely fine.

"The first dish is salt-and-pepper Pufferfish. I will taste each one. Please rest assured, gentlemen." After He Xiaochun, the owner, finished speaking, he picked up a serving knife. He cut a small piece from each fish and tasted it.

"Under normal circumstances, if the Pufferfish has toxins, a reaction will occur very quickly!"

A minute later, He Xiaochun was still fine. "Gentlemen, the temperature is perfect now. You can begin tasting. I believe it won't disappoint you!"

Xu Shaoyuan and the other two just looked at Luofeng.

But Zheng Zeyao was the first to pick up his chopsticks. "Can't worry about that much, it smells so good..."

Luofeng also smiled, then picked up a piece and ate it.

The remaining two naturally didn't say they had to wait for their reactions and started eating as well.

All joking aside, they weren't idiots. If it were really poisonous, could this restaurant still be open here?

"Damn it, this is pretty interesting!"

"Brothers, don't hesitate, eat hearty mouthfuls! Are you eating poison? Taking tiny little sips?" Zheng Zeyao couldn't help but make complaints seeing the other two.

The second dish, Grilled Pufferfish, was served.

Everyone once again looked at He Xiaochun beside them.

He Xiaochun's mouth twitched. Usually, once guests ate the first dish, trust would be established. But these young men, why were they so wary?

There was no choice... Before each subsequent dish was served, He Xiaochun tasted it. But He Xiaochun didn't complain. He was almost full from all the tasting anyway.

"Come, come, come, let's have a drink! I wasn't wrong, was I? This Pufferfish Feast is something else, right?" Luofeng raised his glass, smiling at the others.

"Hahaha, a meal costing over ten thousand. If it wasn't interesting, that would be truly unacceptable."

"When I get home, I'll find a chance to trick my old man into coming here once."

"Me too, this must be shared!"

The three quickly clinked their glasses, happily eating and chatting.

Then Luofeng suddenly asked Li Jie, "Li Jie, you still can't forget her?"

"Forgot her long ago."

"But I haven't even said who 'she' is!" Luofeng said. "Aren't you posting those lovesick messages on your Moments Circle every day? It gives me a headache just looking at them."

"That was for Li Mei to see, okay?" Li Jie retorted irritably.

"Damn it!"

Luofeng could only look bewildered. Moving on this fast? So, after finding out Lin Xiaoting was toxic, he just forgot her. It seems... men aren't devoted; they just crave a woman's body. If the body is no longer 'tasty,' then it's 'get lost,' right? That must be the logic...

Of course, Luofeng also knew Li Mei. She was a pretty girl, around an 85-pointer. It would be a bit difficult for Li Jie to pursue her, but there was hope... Take it slow. An 85-point beauty, honestly, with a little packaging, could easily be sent to star in movies. In the Entertainment Circle, beauties above 90 points are basically non-existent; it's all about packaging. Without makeup, they're terrifying!

「About 2 hours later.」

The Pufferfish Feast treated by Luofeng was concluded.

Luofeng paid the bill directly on the tablet. The total was 15,500 yuan. There was no cover charge and no service fee, only the cost of the food.

Compared to high-end hotels, this place clearly offered a more satisfying dining experience. But over ten thousand yuan? That was fucking high-end, wasn't it?

"Mr. Luo, thank you for your patronage! We've taken 500 yuan off, so it's just 15,000 yuan!" He Xiaochun said politely.

"Thank you, boss, for working so hard. I'm almost embarrassed to take this discount," Luofeng chuckled.

The main reason was to snag a 15,000 yuan cashback card. Luofeng rarely bothered with such small denominations.

[Ding! The host has drawn a 6 times cashback!]

[Obtained 90,000 yuan!]

[Ding! After eating Pufferfish, Bai Ningbing found it delicious, fulfilling her primary desire to taste Pufferfish!]

[Obtained 5 Attribute Points!]

[And one "You're So Toxic" Prank Card!]

Of course, when Luofeng mentioned he was taking his three good buddies out to eat, he had naturally told Bai Ningbing. Luofeng also explained it was a gathering for the three guys and he didn't plan to bring her.

But she had actually gone and searched online to see if Pufferfish was good. Seeing how netizens raved about it, her primary desire was actually to try Pufferfish? By then, Luofeng and the others had already started eating. It was unnecessary to call her over, so he simply had a few portions sent to her. This primary desire was ridiculously easy to fulfill.

"Explain!"

[Ding! "You're So Toxic" Prank Card: Using this prop card will cause the target to develop sores on their head and discharge from the soles of their feet, and their dog-head W skill will become listless and ineffective!]

[The specific effects depend on whether the target receives treatment! If untreated, these effects will persist!]

Luofeng thought of someone: Xu Li. I'll just use it on her.
