Even the director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau has to show respect to Zeke. His son is nothing compared to our son-in-law. He isn't fit to even lick Zeke's boots."

Lacey glanced at it and suddenly laughed, "Mom, read carefully, the price is in thousands!"

"This dish costs ten thousand, not ten."

Hannah could not believe her eyes, "Ten thousand a dish? Is this dish made of gold?"

Daniel puffed hard on his cigarette to hide his shock. "Hmm, old ladies know so little. In here, ten thousand a dish is considered normal."

Hannah glared at Daniel, "You speak as if you're not shocked yourself. Look, your cigarette butt is about to burn your lips."

"Oh? My gosh!" Daniel quickly spat out the butt. There was a blister on his lip.

Hannah sighed, "Just one dish in here is almost Daniel's salary for one month. Zeke, we really cannot afford this. Let's go to another restaurant."

Zeke smiled. "Dad and mom, just order as you wish. Our expenditure here is free."
