Chapter 2630 Stunning With A Crunch
Looking at the vast spread of food laid before him, Lin Mu found it hard to hold back his excitement. @@@@
Before he could move, however, the Ten Flower Beauties gracefully stepped in. Reluctantly pulling themselves away from Little Shrubby—despite their clear desire to keep doting on him—they turned their attention to serving the three distinguished guests.
"My Lords, Honored Monk, please begin with these dishes," Miss Rose, Miss Hellebore, and Miss Bluebell announced in unison, presenting plates with an elegant flourish.
Daoist Chu was served a dish of finely sliced yam and vibrant orange carrots. The vegetables had been flash-fried in sizzling scallion oil, giving them a lightly crisp texture, and were topped with green onions and shards of golden, crispy chicken skin. The aroma was savory, with a subtle hint of sweetness from the caramelization of the vegetables.
"Ah, you remembered my favorite," Daoist Chu said with a grin, clearly delighted by the thoughtful selection.
Monk Hushu's plate reflected his monastic simplicity and dietary restrictions. It featured stir-fried amaranth leaves and tender bok choy greens, glistening with a light garlic-infused oil. The dish was seasoned with fragrant ginger cubes, which added a touch of warmth and a satisfying depth of flavor.
Lin Mu, on the other hand, was presented with a dish that exuded decadence: tiger prawns. Their shells had been meticulously removed, revealing plump, pink flesh cooked to perfection in a rich mixture of butter and garlic. The prawns gleamed invitingly, and their aroma—an intoxicating combination of creamy butter and aromatic spices—filled the air, making Lin Mu's stomach rumble in anticipation.
"We weren't sure what Master Lin Mu might prefer, so we chose one of our signature dishes. It's a crowd favorite," Miss Rose said with a warm smile.
"Thank you," Lin Mu replied, picking up a pair of chopsticks.
What happened next left the Ten Flower Beauties utterly speechless.
Lin Mu casually grabbed all five prawns at once and stuffed them into his mouth. The prawns were sizable, each measuring at least five inches long, yet he seemed to devour them effortlessly. His jaw moved with surprising efficiency, turning the flavorful morsels into minced perfection within seconds.
"Mmm... truly delicious," Lin Mu said, swallowing with ease. He placed the plate aside and added, "Next."
Or so they thought.
CRUNCH.
The sound startled everyone. Miss Rose's eyes widened in alarm. "M-Master Lin Mu, are you okay?" she asked hesitantly.
Lin Mu looked up, chewing casually. "Hmm?"
CRUNCH. CRUNCH.
To their utter shock, Lin Mu had not only eaten the tender, honey-glazed meat but also the entire bone. He crunched through it as if it were no tougher than a crispy biscuit.
"N-Never mind," Miss Rose muttered, swallowing her words.
The other Flower Beauties were equally stunned, their jaws slack as they watched Lin Mu pick up another lamb chop and repeat the process. Each bite was accompanied by the sound of crushing bone, a sound so unnerving that it sent shivers down their spines.
In all their years at the Four Fruits Pavilion, none of them had encountered a customer who ate bones along with the meat. This wasn't just gnawing for marrow—it was full consumption, as if the bones were part of the delicacy.
Daoist Chu couldn't contain himself any longer. A chuckle escaped his lips, and he set down his teacup to speak.
"Don't worry, Daoist Lin Mu's appetite is... unique. He doesn't like to waste food. At all," Daoist Chu said, his tone filled with amusement.
The Ten Beauties nodded numbly, unsure how to respond.
As Lin Mu continued his meal with unrelenting enthusiasm, the sound of crunching bones filled the hall, leaving everyone—beauties, servers, and guests alike—staring in disbelief.
