Chapter 730: Fragrant Food
Imperial Capital University had many cafeterias and a variety of cuisines. Not only were the cafeterias famous in the capital, but they were also famous in all the universities in the country.
Chancellor Liao did not choose the best cafeteria. He was afraid that it would scare them. But if he picked the worst cafeteria, it would seem petty. Hence, he chose a random middle-tier cafeteria.
China had 56 ethnic groups, just like how America had all kinds of people. Therefore, there were many types of food in the cafeteria. There were ordinary steamed buns and gruel, as well as specialty delicacies. There were also a few ethnic cuisines like roasted lamb legs and pilaf rice. There were many windows in the cafeteria, which made the place dazzling.
The students went to choose their food and then sat together to eat.
It wasn’t the first time Mr. Wilson had been here, but it was clear that some of the students were here for the first time.
However, before they set off, these students had all learned the proper etiquette. It was easy for them to use chopsticks. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have stood out during the selection.
In the cafeteria, the other students of Imperial Capital University were also silently staring at these foreign students.
A young black man held a pair of chopsticks and pointed at a piece of pancake on the plate. He asked with disdain, “What’s this?”
“Oh, this is Chinese pizza.” Another white student also picked up a piece, looked at it, and sniffed it. “It doesn’t smell as good as our country’s pizza, and it doesn’t look as delicious either.”
Chancellor Liao smiled but did not say anything.
However… when the two of them put the pancakes into their mouths, they were instantly shocked. Their first reaction betrayed them, and they couldn’t deny it.
Chancellor Liao then said slowly, “This is the specialty dish of Shandong. Our country is rich in land and resources. There are many of such specialty dishes.”
The two of them could no longer care about anything else. They ate one piece after another.
Wasn’t this much better than cold salad and chicken breast?
When Mr. Wilson saw this, there was anger in his eyes. These two good-for-nothings! However, if he were to lose his temper in front of so many people, it would only make them look worse.
But when he tilted his head again, he almost fainted.
It was not just the two of them. All the students present were impressed by the delicacies of China. They were all eating heartily.
Mr. Wilson was rendered immobile.
There were even some seniors who came last year who muttered, “I came last year because I like this. This year, I worked hard for the sake of getting to eat this Chinese food again, and I’m finally here in China.”
Luo Mengmeng and Sheng Yang were sitting not far away from them, so Luo Mengmeng couldn’t help laughing out loud.
It was better late to make discoveries than never.
“Yangyang, don’t you think it’s funny?” Luo Mengmeng looked at Sheng Yang’s expressionless face. She asked curiously, “Yang Yang, when will you smile?”
Facing this question, Sheng Yang’s answer wasn’t that simple. “When I get an answer to a question.”
“…”

In the past few days during the visit of the students from the Ivy League, the local students could often see these foreign university students strolling around their campus. The foreign students were usually quite anxious when studying in their universities, and it was rare for them to come out to relax. This relaxation was also for the sake of competing with Imperial Capital University in a few days.
Based on past events, they knew that they would definitely be able to crush the students of Imperial Capital University. Therefore, they had nothing to fear.
In the blink of an eye, it was nighttime. It was the beginning of spring. The cats were pacing around anxiously and meowing.
