Chapter 78
“What kind of taste is that?” Harold grabbed her collar and made her look at another tank. In a calm voice, he said, “This thing is more expensive.”
The other tank contained white golden dragonfish, which was nearly four times more valuable than the red mint immortal.
Crystal didn’t know anything about it. She said, “I think this little fish is better-looking. Look at its red and yellow color… It has three colors and it looks so lively.”
Harold was speechless.
The waitress quickly said, “If you like it, we can give you two.”
Before Crystal could reply, she had already gotten someone to bring over a crystal fish tank. She personally fished out two Gentleman Immortals and placed them in the fish tank. She said, “I’ll get someone to bring another two packs of feed later. This fish is very easy to feed.”
Crystal held the fish tank and felt a little hot. She looked at Harold for help and asked, “How much are these two little fish?” All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Harold paused and said, “One dollar for one. If you like it, let them get two more.”
“…” The waitress’s smile disappeared.
One dollar for one each… He had to add four extra zeros behind!
“I thought it was very expensive.” Crystal breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the white golden dragonfish. “What about this one?”
“This one is a little more expensive.” Harold lazily said, “One dollar and fifty cents.”
The waitress was speechless.
She felt that she needed oxygen.
Crystal hesitated for a moment and said, “Then I want one of these.”
Harold glanced at the waitress, who forced a smile and said, “Okay.”
She caught another white golden dragonfish, but Crystal did not take advantage of others. “It’s 3.5 dollars in total, right?”
The waitress said, “… Yes. But Master White is the VIP of our restaurant. It’s just a few fish. You don’t have to pay. Miss, take it as a gift for our first meeting.
Crystal smiled sweetly. “Thank you!”
The waitress answered, “… You’re welcome.”
Crystal held her little fish and followed Harold inside. She had never raised a fish before and had only eaten it. She knew how to cook braised fish and steam fish, but she did not know how to feed them. She asked Harold, “Do I have to give them a big fish tank?”
“Are you very rich now?” Harold said. “You felt so bad the last time you bought me a candied fruit. Don’t you feel bad buying a fish tank?”
Crystal said, “How can you compare yourself to a fish?”
“…” Harold stopped in his tracks and looked at her expressionlessly. “What did you say?”
Crystal did not know what to answer.
Crystal said, “I mean, how can fish compare with you?”
“Ask Luke to order a bigger fish tank for you.” Harold said lightly, “There will be a housekeeper who will come tomorrow. She will deal with these things. You don’t have to worry about it.”
“That won’t do.” Crystal had her own logic. “Think about it. If you leave me to Assistant Britton, it’ll be very different from raising me yourself.”
Harold thought for a moment and found that it made sense. He thought for a while and said, “Then you raise it yourself.”
Crystal nodded.
The waitress led them into the private room and took out the menu. Harold leaned against the chair and raised his chin. “Give it to her.”
The waitress whispered, “Miss, do you need me to introduce the specialties here to you?” Crystal looked at the menu that didn’t even show the price. She felt that it was a little fishy.
She casually ordered a few dishes and the waitress went out. Crystal lay on the table and looked at the small fish in the crystal jar. Suddenly, she realized, “… Master White, how did you know I was in the dessert shop?”
