Life at the Top

As crayfish was not that popular yet, Julian drove around the city for a very long time before he found a crayfish shop near the suburbs on a food street with stalls that sold midnight snacks.

At this moment, the evening lights lit up. The food street was near several factories, so many workers and residents who lived around the area would come out for a stroll. Thus, the place was currently bustling with energy.

Julian went to order the food, and when he returned to his seat, he muttered, “This stuff is incredibly cheap back home. You can see crayfish everywhere in the waterways, and they cost one buck per pound. I can’t believe this place is charging me 15 bucks.”

There were two men and two women at Jasper’s table. Especially with Wendy’s good looks, everyone had their eyes on them.

Wendy hardly ever visited places like this, so she began studying her environment curiously.

Whenever she threw a glance at the shirtless men who were holding glasses of draft beer and boasting loudly, they would subconsciously tone down their actions—even to the point where they put down their foot that was propped up on the stool.

Jasper arranged the disposable tableware for Wendy and said with a smile, “The food in a hotel is good, but street food is unique in its own way as well. If I must pick one, I’ll pick street food over food in hotels because I feel more at ease here.”
