Chapter 108

The place where Yu Qian arranged to have dinner with the coal boss was less of a proper restaurant and more of an open-air food stall. However, Yu Qian said this was the spot picked by the coal boss himself. Outside the eatery, a few makeshift plastic tables and chairs were set up casually, yet every single seat was taken. The air was thick with the smoky scent of barbecue and the aroma of various spices, making anyone's mouth water. A woman with a headscarf was skillfully flipping meat skewers on the grill; as grease dripped down, the flames flared up and crackled. In a wok nearby, a chef wearing a high white hat was stir-frying beef at high speed, the sound of the spatula clashing against the iron wok ringing out continuously.
