Bizarre lights flickered about; young men and women danced disco in the center of the dance floor, surrounded by men seated in booths competing in drinking games.
Wang Erzhu and Liu Xiaolian found a spot to sit, and the waiter came over with the drink menu: "What would you like to order, sir?"
Liu Xiaolian took the menu and gave it a glance; the prices of the drinks were frighteningly high. He felt his not-so-thick stack of cash in his pocket and, even before ordering, his heart ached.
Seeing him hesitate to order, Wang Erzhu snatched the menu, and his vision darkened at the sight of the numbers.
This was no place for the common folk, everything here was damn expensive.
A single bottle of beer cost as much as ten kilograms of chicken eggs.
But since they were here, it wouldn't look good not to order anything.
Deciding simply, they each ordered a bottle of beer, nothing else, and handed the menu back to the waiter.
"Is this all?"
