When Su Mo returned to Lan City, the street vendors had already set up their stalls.
Su Mo's stomach rumbled with hunger pangs, feeling rather famished.
Just then there was a noodle shop by the roadside, and Su Mo immediately pulled Wu Ying along.
"Wu Ying, are you hungry? Let's have a bowl of noodles before we head back!"
Wu Ying looked at her but said nothing, instead he walked straight towards the noodle shop.
The two ordered two bowls of beef noodles and sat down on the wooden stools by the side.
Su Mo propped up her arms on the table, her chin in her hands, watching the bustling crowd along the streets which suddenly reminded her of her original world.
She wondered if her parents would be very worried since she had disappeared without a trace from her original world.
"Sigh..." Su Mo unconsciously heaved a sigh.
Wu Ying looked at her, wondering what she was sighing about.
Just then, the owner brought their noodles over. "Please enjoy your meal slowly."
Wu Ying slid one of the bowls towards her. "Here's your noodles."
"Oh." Only then did Su Mo return to her senses as she looked at the noodles before her, discovering that the soup was light and the noodles sparse, she had suddenly lost her appetite altogether.
She picked at a couple of mouthfuls but it really wasn't tasty at all. Other than it being a little salty, there was absolutely no other flavour.
Don't they have chili peppers here? She suddenly recalled that back when they ate at that restaurant previously, it seemed that there was no chili either.
"Boss!" Su Mo called out, "Do you have chili peppers here?"
"Chili peppers? What is that, young lady?"
"...Forget it, it's nothing. You go ahead with your work."
Su Mo didn't know how to explain and could only drop the matter. She ate the few slices of beef in the noodles but left the noodles untouched.
"Not tasty?" Wu Ying's low voice sounded.
Su Mo put down her chopsticks. "It doesn't quite suit my tastebuds."
"What do you like to eat then?"
Su Mo casually said, "I like to eat the stuff from where I'm from. Hotpot, grilled skewers, big plate chicken, pearl milk tea, instant noodles...there's just too many tasty things!"
Wu Ying frowned. He had never heard of any of these things before.
"Anyway, you guys don't have them here!" Su Mo added.
"That chili pepper you mentioned just now, what is that?" Wu Ying asked.
Su Mo thought for a while before taking out her mobile phone from her pocket and squeezing in next to Wu Ying.
She flipped to her photo album and found a photo she took back when she visited a farm resort.
"Look, it's this. Don't you guys have this here?"
In the photo, it showed Su Mo posing in the chili pepper field. She was wearing shorts and a cropped top, her buxom figure appearing extremely sexy.
Seeing this photo of hers, Wu Ying couldn't help but flush red in the ears. He shifted his gaze somewhat uncomfortably.
"What...what is this thing?"
"It's a mobile phone! You can capture anything realistically in it!"
Su Mo took a side profile picture of him and showed it to him. "See this? It looks exactly like you right?"
