Is dragon meat delicious?

“Attention, everyone down the mountain! Continue to seal off the mountain. The race is about to begin. No vehicles or pedestrians are allowed to enter Mount Nantuo.” The staff began to direct.

“Boom—” Six supercars started roaring, lined up in a row.

The Bugatti Veyron and Porsche 918 were naturally the most stunning among them. The other four were basically Lamborghini and Ferrari models.

“Three, two, one! Go!”

As the referee's command was given, the six cars shot out like arrows from a bowstring.

The strong push-back feeling made Chen Dong incredibly excited. This beast, suppressed for a long time, finally unleashed its performance today.

Chen Dong had the All-Round Driving King system's blessing. Although it was his first time participating in such a supercar race, he was not nervous at all.

At the very beginning, the speed was not pushed to the limit, and stability was the priority. After all, life was the most precious.

He drove in the fourth position, familiarizing himself for two or three minutes, and a feeling of man and car becoming one completely immersed him.

“Boom—” He lightly stepped on the accelerator, drifted directly around the corner, and easily overtook Xiao Han.

“Holy cow, drifting in a Bugatti Veyron! Don't you feel bad for the tires?”

After adapting to the speed of the supercar, Chen Dong completely let himself go, and with a roar, he continued to overtake the two in front, taking the lead.

By the time he reached the top of the mountain, he had already left everyone else far behind.

Parking the car and getting out, the feeling was truly exhilarating, something other sports couldn't provide.

No wonder rich people liked playing with sports cars; it was genuinely thrilling.

Chen Dong sat down and greeted the two beauties, Bai Xue and Zhu Yan, while Bai Shaolong, Wang Cheng, and Xiao Han arrived one after another.

Needless to say, the last three were Xiao Han, Jiang Hui, and Qiao Ran. The three laughed heartily and readily transferred 200,000 to Wang Cheng.

Wang Cheng was not pretentious; he spent when he should, saved when he should, and earned when he should. It wasn't shameful.

“Tonight, we'll have wild game here before we disperse. People have already been arranged to prepare it. It's all mountain chickens and rabbits, and we even got some dragon meat. The taste is very delicious, isn't it?”

“Dragon meat? What's that?” Zhu Yan asked with a curious expression.

“Heh, haven't you had Dragon and Phoenix Soup?” Chen Dong asked casually.

“Not only have I not had it, I've never even heard of it!”

“What about Sea, Land, and Air?”

“What's that now?”

“Then what animal do you think a dragon is most similar to?” Chen Dong knew that many girls wouldn't dare to eat these things, so he continued to ask.

“You mean, that's snake!” Zhu Yan's beautiful eyes widened, and her pretty face turned pale.

“That's so disgusting. Can that thing be eaten?”

“I can only say it's a great tonic. After eating it, if no one accompanies you at night, you might not be able to sleep.”

Zhu Yan: .....

Finally, seizing an opportunity when no one was around, Chen Dong chatted with Bai Shaolong for a few moments.

“Brother Bai, what's Zhu Yan's background exactly?”

“Ahem, that can't be explained in detail. I can only mention one word: Cabinet!”

Cabinet! Chen Dong frowned, then suddenly opened his mouth wide. Holy cow, is her background that big?

Surname Zhu, Cabinet! Could she be the granddaughter of Old Zhu, Zhu Hongwei, the current Grand Elder of the Cabinet? Although Old Zhu would definitely retire this year, his influence remained immense.

Furthermore, his only son's ability was also extremely outstanding. He was currently the Mayor of Jingdu. If all went smoothly, he was very likely to enter the Cabinet during this year's reshuffle, becoming one of the six elders!

This background is a bit heaven-defying!

Bai Shaolong saw Chen Dong's expression and knew he must have understood, so he made a shushing gesture.

“Her family is very strict, and few people know of her existence.

When she was in college, she got along very well with my sister, but even my sister only found out how significant this girl's background was after graduation.”

Chen Dong nodded. He had also heard of Old Zhu. He had been on the battlefield when he was young, crawling out of piles of dead bodies.

Such a red background, an elder generation leader who had made great contributions to the people and the Nation, usually had stricter requirements for their descendants.

It was evident from Zhu Yan only being able to borrow someone's sports car to drive that her family definitely disapproved of her driving a sports car in Jingdu.

With a family background like hers, let alone a single sports car, even a car dealership, as long as she subtly hinted at it, a large number of people would line up to give it to her.

No wonder her family disagreed with Zhu Yan working at his company. If she came over, wouldn't that be equivalent to the Zhu family tying themselves to him?

Currently, he completely lacked the strength to attract the attention of a Cabinet Elder.

But Chen Dong believed that this day would not be far off. As long as he could achieve significant enough accomplishments and provide enough scientific and technological support to the Nation, let alone a Cabinet Elder, perhaps even the Dragon Nation's Supreme Leader would come to meet with him.

At the dining table, the dishes had been served one after another.

Zhu Yan plopped down next to Chen Dong, looking at the table full of wild game, sticking out her cute tongue, her eyes fixed on the food.

“Which one is the rabbit meat? Chen Dong, quickly get me some.”

“Can you eat spicy food? There's a lot of chili in the rabbit meat.”

“Yes, of course, I can eat spicy food.”

Chen Dong picked up the serving chopsticks and gave Zhu Yan a few good pieces of meat. The people beside them stared blankly at Chen Dong and Zhu Yan, their eyes revealing a strange look.

Zhu Yan thought others had misunderstood that she and Chen Dong were dating. Her pretty face flushed slightly, but she showed no weakness, raising her neck.

“What are you looking at? Chen Dong and I are just good friends. What's wrong with a good friend getting me some food?”

Zhu Yan ate all three pieces of meat Chen Dong gave her, spitting out the bones, sticking out her tongue, and quickly taking a big gulp of drink.

“Hiss, it is a bit spicy, but this rabbit meat tastes really good. It's a bit different from what I've eaten before. As expected, rabbits raised in the mountains are just delicious.”

Zhu Yan had no realization that rabbits were so cute and how could one eat them. She continued to boss Chen Dong around,

“Give me two more pieces, pick the ones with more meat.”

“Alright.” Chen Dong gave her several more pieces.

“Is the dragon meat tasty?” Chen Dong watched Zhu Yan eat all the meat he had given her, a mischievous smirk hanging at the corner of his eye.

“Nani? Dragon meat? Isn't it rabbit meat?” Zhu Yan felt her whole being was not good.

“Ah, Chen Dong, I'm going to fight you!” No wonder everyone was looking at her like she was an idiot just now.

.....

Later in the meal, Zhu Yan no longer said snake meat was disgusting. She took the initiative herself,

“This spicy snake is really good. A snake that looks like a big worm, when cooked, actually tastes so good…”

“Don't rush, drink some more Dragon and Phoenix Soup. It's a great tonic.”

Dragon and Phoenix Soup, of course, was soup made from snake and black chicken, with wild ginseng, goji berries, red dates, and various other ingredients that replenish qi and blood. It was definitely a great tonic.

After drinking two bowls of soup, Chen Dong felt a little warm all over, and even his blood flowed three times faster.

“Chen Dong, if you come to Jingdu in the future, you must find me to play! I'm going back tomorrow, and I haven't paid you for the Rolls-Royce repair fee yet.”

Zhu Yan pouted, a little reluctant about the impending farewell.

“No need for the repair fee. Just treat me to a big meal next time you're in Jingdu.”

Chen Dong laughed heartily,

“Where are you planning to work when you go back?”

He could inquire about this news and, by the way, look at the policies from above. The unit Old Zhu arranged for her to enter must be an industry highly valued by the higher-ups, which he could focus on investing in.

In this era, the top priorities were naturally the internet and high technology, which had the most development potential for the future.

But besides these two, Chen Dong didn't have too many impressions of other things, after all, in his previous life, he was just an ordinary corporate drone and shut-in.
