“What’s this?” Gloria asked curiously as she looked at the colorful, aromatic food. She didn’t want to get back to check her freckles now.
Lucia smiled. “It’s called Yangzhou fried rice, and the little owner here calls it rainbow fried rice.” She brought some into her mouth, savoring the flavor.
Lucia got used to eating three meals here every day. At this rate, the scars on her arms would be gone in a few days.
Her skin had become softer and whiter. She had decided to come eat here every day even after her scars were completely gone. The food worked better than any skin creams.
Gloria picked up the spoon and paused for a moment.
Out of curiosity, Gloria spooned some into her mouth. Her eyes curved in a smile.
It was a different kind of dish compared to tofu pudding, but just as delicious. Every ingredient tasted so good on its own, and even better when combined. Her taste buds were cheering, basking in the heavenly food.
Gloria opened her eyes. She couldn’t believe that the food here had completely changed her ideas about food. She had thought people were only eating to live, but now she realized that she could live to eat.
After she swallowed, it turned into a warm current, soothing her whole body. She took another bite.
She had totally forgotten that she had said she couldn’t eat much before ordering.
She felt she needed another plate after this one.
Lucia felt happy as she watched Gloria become engrossed in the fried rice.
Lucia was a dozen years older than her. She still remembered that Gloria had been just as cute and lively as Amy when she was little. She would have been one of the most beautiful girls in Chaos City if it were not for those freckles.
On account of her own scars, she could really relate to Gloria. All these years, she had been supporting, encouraging, and helping her to try to get over it, but she had failed again and again.
So, now she was quite relieved to see her eating so happily.
Mag took a glance at Gloria and smiled.
“Congratulations! You mission of getting 1,000 customers is complete!” said the system. “Reward: the recipe for braised chicken and rice!”
Mag’s face lit up. The experience bag was now shining in his head.
He held back his urge to touch the bag. He had to wait till the night.
“Why are you smiling, Father?” Amy asked, walking in with her bowls.
“I’m thinking about making a new dish for you tomorrow,” answered Mag with a smile, moving the fried rice from the wok into two plates.
He was cooking two plates of fried rice at one time now since he had grown stronger. It had become much easier for him to stir and toss the food, so he could combine all the ingredients even better, and the taste of Yangzhou fried rice had improved.
Amy’s eyes brightened. “Whoa, a new dish!” She clapped her hands. “Is it the Manchu Han Imperial Feast?” she asked, looking up at Mag with great expectations.
Yabemiya was also looking at Mag at the kitchen door, excited. His cooking skills and inventive mind had greatly impressed her.
She had grown up in a kitchen, but she had found herself almost ignorant about everything happening in this kitchen.
Yabemiya thought to herself.
Mag shook his head. “No. Manchu Han Imperial Feast consists of many dishes. I don’t know how to make it yet.”
“It’s a dish with a lot of meat. You’ll like it. I think I can make it for you tomorrow.”
Amy’s eyes widened and were shining with excitement. The thought of meat made her mouth water. “A lot of meat!”
Yabemiya thought. She put two plates of fried rice and two bowls of tofu pudding on the tray and walked out quickly.
Mag was cooking much faster now, so she had to pick up her speed. Although she was strong, all the taking orders, serving, and cleaning were making her feel a little exhausted.
