Crab Feast.
As a seafood buffet that had moved from Qin Island to Modu, Crab Feast was a place Lin Shen had wanted to visit for a long time.
It was a bit embarrassing to admit, but even at twenty-five, he had never eaten any large seafood other than common small shrimp, crabs, and oysters.
Let alone things like king crab or Boston lobster, which he had only ever seen in pictures and videos online.
Now, with a daily income of over ten thousand from the system, Lin Shen finally had the chance to fulfill his dream of feasting on seafood to his heart’s content.
So, he brought Jiang Wan and the other three to the entrance of Crab Feast.
This left the others a bit dumbfounded.
"Crab Feast?"
Staring at the lavish sign, Zhang Kaile scratched his head.
Even with his low EQ, he knew this place had to be incredibly expensive!
He had thought Lin Shen was just treating them to a casual meal at a regular restaurant, not some high-end seafood buffet like this!
"Hello, how much for a party of five?"
Lin Shen walked up to the front desk to ask, and a young female employee answered with a polite smile.
"Hello, sir. We have a 1,000-yuan tier and a 1,300-yuan tier. The latter includes an extra two jin of king crab per person, as well as upgraded versions of other seafood."
"We’ll take the 1,300-yuan option then."
Without a second thought, Lin Shen pulled out his phone, scanned the code, and paid.
This made Zhang Kaile and Yuan Meng exchange a look, their expressions no longer just stunned, but filled with sheer amazement.
It was as if they were saying, ’He’s a real rich second-generation! No doubt about it.’
Lin Ping, however, looked like she wanted to say something but held back. She was the type with a small appetite and knew she definitely wouldn’t be able to eat her money’s worth at a buffet.
But she was too embarrassed to say it outright, so she kept quiet.
Jiang Wan seemed to notice the look on Lin Ping’s face. The arm she had linked with Lin Shen’s tightened slightly as she leaned in and whispered in his ear.
"Isn’t this too much for you?"
"Sixty-five hundred? Not really."
"..."
A single meal that cost half of her monthly salary, and he didn’t consider it a big expense?
Seeing Lin Shen’s nonchalant expression, Jiang Wan felt she could no longer compare his spending habits to her own.
She had originally thought Lin Shen had a few hundred thousand yuan to his name.
But for him to spend so extravagantly, he probably had to be a millionaire!
"This way, please, for the party of five."
After they paid, a waiter led Lin Shen and the others to a private room and handed them a tablet.
"You can order any seafood on here, there’s no limit. There are twelve cooking methods, so pick whichever you like."
"Let me see..."
Lin Shen swiped through the tablet, briefly looked over the menu, and then began ordering with the waiter’s guidance.
Ten jin of king crab, half steamed and half prepared typhoon shelter style, which would best preserve its texture while eliminating any worry about parasites.
Then he ordered five Boston lobsters, ten snow crabs, and several mud crabs, prepared in various ways like salt-baking and steaming with rice flour.
Finally, he added a sashimi platter, some small hot dishes, and drinks.
"That should be all."
Lin Shen handed the tablet back to the waiter. After the waiter left, he suddenly noticed that, apart from Jiang Wan, the other three seemed a bit reserved.
"No need to be so tense."
Lin Shen said with a light laugh.
"Just treat it like a regular buffet. It’s really no different. In fact, it might not even be as good as some of the cheaper ones."
"Yeah."
Yuan Meng nodded in agreement, while Zhang Kaile, influenced by Lin Shen’s warm attitude, gradually began to liven up.
"By the way, Boss Lin, if you don’t mind me asking, what do you do for a living?"
"Investing."
Lin Shen felt like he’d been asked this question several times already. It seemed like as soon as he got familiar with someone, they would ask.
’Is it really that important how a rich person got their money?’
Lin Shen didn’t quite get it.
He was so used to the routine that his answer came out smoothly. He could even lie without batting an eye, his expression calm and composed.
Zhang Kaile nodded as if he half-understood. With his lead, the atmosphere at the table gradually livened up.
