âWhen the dishes are served, Iâll test the poison for you first.â Wallace followed Sharon into the private room and sat opposite her.
The first dish was an appetizerâ Pufferfish skin. The small bowl was filled with crystal clear fish skin silk. It was accompanied by green side dishes and a unique sauce.
âWhatâs this sauce?â Sharon asked.
âThis is grapefruit vinegar.â The attendant placed the dishes on the table and politely left.
âHoney, Iâll test the poison for you first,â Wallace said with a smile.
Wallace picked up a piece of fish skin with his chopsticks, dipped it in grapefruit vinegar, and placed it in his mouth.
âHow is it?â Sharon looked at him nervously.
âItâs especially delicious.â Wallace deliberately craved her.
âReally?â Sharon smiled and grabbed Wallaceâs hand. âHubby, do you feel uncomfortable? Do you need me to call the emergency hotline for you?â
Wallace smiled at Sharon. A moment later, he suddenly covered his stomach with a painful expression and found it difficult to breathe. He fell onto the long sofa in the private room.
Sharon was shocked and quickly ran over. Her heart was pounding. âWallace!! Whatâs wrong?!â
Wallace lay in Sharonâs arms and suddenly opened his eyes. He smiled and said, âIâm just teasing you, honey.â
Sharon was scared out of her wits by him just now. She hit Wallace angrily.
âYou scared me to death! Do you know that? I was scared to death by you.â
Tears flowed down Sharonâs face. Thinking about it, she was really afraid just now. Wallace, who had always been reliable, steady, and cool, actually joked with her like this.
Wallace didnât struggle and let Sharon hit him. Looking at Sharonâs tear-stained face, he felt very sweet and couldnât help but say, âHoney, I love you!â
âDonât joke like this again, understand?â Sharon patted Wallaceâs back hard, and her eye makeup was a little smudged from crying.
âGot it.â Wallace hugged Sharon and kissed her lips with a smile.
The attendantâs knock suddenly sounded. Sharon quickly sat up in Wallaceâs arms. She took out a small mirror from her bag and tidied her messy makeup and hair. She glared at Wallace from an angle that the attendant couldnât see.
Wallace smiled and saw Sharonâs angry expression. He picked up a piece of fish skin with his chopsticks and dipped it in the sauce to feed Sharon.
Sharon hadnât recovered from the shock just now. She turned her head to the side and planned to ignore this man for the time being.
âHoney, I was wrong. I wonât do it again.â Wallace realized that he had gone overboard with this joke. If Sharon made such a joke to scare him, he would be scared half to death.
Sharon felt Wallaceâs sincerity in apologizing. Wasnât it said that every man had a boy living in his heart? Men were teenagers until they died, so this man in front of her naturally had his little boy side.
âTry this.â
Sharon looked at the pufferfish skin in front of her that belonged to the fish which had poison even in its blood. She first hesitated instinctively, then tasted it nervously.
âItâs delicious,â Sharon said.
âRight?â Wallace smiled.
This fish skin was refreshing, crispy, and especially chewy. Coupled with the sauce, it tasted superb.
Wallace had reserved the Japanese food tonight in advance. If the guests who came to this restaurant wanted to eat pufferfish, they had to make an appointment in advance. Even the appetizers at this pufferfish feast were so delicious. Sharon was looking forward to the delicious food that was about to follow.
The second dish was a puffer fish sashimi. It was as thin as paper and a cicadaâs wing. It was enough to show the chefâs knife skills.
The puffer fish sashimi, paired with white and green scallion strips, green scallion rings, and orange mashed carrots, were placed together on a dark blue plate. There was also a quarter of a green lemon and a quarter of yellow lemon served like a brightly colored painting.
Wallace first picked up a piece of pufferfish filet and placed it in his mouth, wanting to taste the original taste of the pufferfish. Then, he squeezed lemon into the puffer fish sashimi and used his chopsticks to roll the scallion silk, carrot paste, and scallion rings in the middle of the pufferfish. He dipped them in the sauce and picked them up for Sharon.
This time, Sharon took a big bite without hesitation..
