Zh: 上海的夜晚孕育出无数奇遇和神秘的故事。
En: The nights in Shanghai give birth to countless adventures and mysterious stories.

Zh: 在这个喧闹而繁华的城市，一个顽皮的年轻人名叫李华，以他的恶作剧而闻名。
En: In this noisy and bustling city, a naughty young man named Li Hua is famous for his pranks.

Zh: 与他一同漫步的朋友王伟也经常成为他的目标。
En: His friend Wang Wei who walks with him is also often his target.

Zh: 有一天晚上，李华和王伟在繁忙的夜市相遇。
En: One night, Li Hua and Wang Wei met in a busy night market.

Zh: 灯火阑珊，小吃摊前的人群如潮水般涌动，给这个城市增添了一抹独特的色彩。
En: The lights were dimmed, and the crowds in front of the food stalls surged like a tide, adding a unique color to the city.

Zh: 摊位上摆满了各式各样的食物，散发着诱人的香气。
En: The stalls are filled with all kinds of food, exuding a tempting aroma.

Zh: 李华看见了一道辣的川菜，他的眼睛闪着调皮的光芒。
En: Li Hua saw a spicy Sichuan dish, and his eyes shone mischievously.

Zh: 他立刻聚集了一群人围观，好奇地指着那道川菜对王伟说：“你知道吗，这道菜一点也不辣！
En: He immediately gathered a group of people to watch, pointed to the Sichuan dish curiously and said to Wang Wei: "You know, this dish is not spicy at all!

Zh: 我敢打赌你一口下去，你都不会觉得辣！
En: I bet you won't find it spicy if you take a bite!"

Zh: ”王伟被李华的话逗乐了，他疑惑地看着他的朋友。
En: Wang Wei Amused by Li Hua's words, he looked at his friend suspiciously.

Zh: 这似乎有点太不可思议了，但王伟能从李华的眼神中读出他滑稽的企图。
En: This seems a bit too incredible, but Wang Weineng can read Li Hua's funny attempt from Li Hua's eyes.

Zh: 他决定和李华一试究竟。
En: He decided to try it out with Li Hua.

Zh: 两人开始慢慢走近小吃摊，王伟对这道辣菜心生好奇。
En: The two began to approach the food stall slowly, and Wang Wei became curious about this spicy dish.

Zh: 他怀着期待的目光凝视着，咽了口口水。
En: He stared expectantly and swallowed.

Zh: 李华微笑着向摊主点了一份辣菜，并把盘子递给了王伟。
En: Li Hua smiled and ordered a spicy dish from the stall owner, and handed the plate to Wang Wei.

Zh: 他的眼睛里闪烁着期待的光芒。
En: His eyes shone with anticipation.

Zh: 王伟心怀着疑惑，小心翼翼地拿起一片菜，小口小口地尝了一点。
En: With doubts in his heart, Wang Wei carefully picked up a piece of vegetable and tasted it in small bites.

Zh: 一瞬间，他的脸颊变得通红，像是被火烧焦了一样。
En: In an instant, his cheeks became red, as if scorched by fire.

Zh: 热辣的辣椒粉立刻灼烧起他的味蕾，火辣的感觉爆发出来，仿佛有无数的老祖宗在他的口腔里跳舞。
En: The hot chili powder immediately burned his taste buds, and the hot feeling burst out, as if countless ancestors were dancing in his mouth.

Zh: 一阵惊恐后，王伟的耳朵里竟然冒出了蒸汽！
En: After a burst of panic, steam came out of Wang Wei's ears!

Zh: 他气得差点喷火，但看到李华捧腹大笑的样子，他意识到自己已经被他的朋友欺骗了。
En: He was so angry that he almost spit fire, but seeing Li Hua's belly laugh, he realized that he had been deceived by his friend.

Zh: “李华，你这个混蛋！
En: "Li Hua, you bastard!"

Zh: ”王伟捂着嘴巴大喊。
En: Wang Wei yelled while covering his mouth.

Zh: 他不知道是在生气还是在笑，但他明白自己永远不应该相信李华的味蕾。

En: Although Wang Wei was disgraced by Li Hua's prank, he knew in his heart that these moments of laughter and life's adventures were what really made their friendship last forever.
