“Father, is red braised pork a kind of medicine? Will it be bitter?” Kyle raised his head to look at Curtis with a tinge of nervousness.

  “Mr. Mag said this is a dish, so it shouldn’t be bitter.”


  “I am not afraid of bitterness. I will finish it all even if it is bitter.” Kyle nodded with a tiny smile on his face.

  Curtis patted Kyle’s head, feeling a little heartache for him. This little guy had been eating all kinds of medicine recently. Most of them were so bitter that even adults found them hard to swallow.

  Mag saw Curtis and his son at the very front of the line when he was going to send Amy to school. He smiled and nodded at them. Amy greeted them too before they left on the bicycle.

  “There are so many people. Uncle Mag must be a very outstanding chef, right?”


  “Yes, he should.” Curtis nodded in agreement. This was the first time he had seen a long line forming in front of a restaurant even before it was open for business……

  The restaurant started its service, and the customers began to enter gradually.

  Curtis and Kyle took a seat near the window. Kyle sized up the restaurant curiously, and wondrously said, “This restaurant is so beautiful, just like the ice cream shop.

  “Yes, it is.” Curtis nodded in agreement as he gazed around slightly taken aback. He had been to most restaurants in Chaos City, but none was as exquisitely decorated as this.

  “How do you do, little Kyle?” Yabemiya said to Kyle with a smile as she approached the table.

  “Nice to see you, Big Sister Miya,” Little Kyle also answered happily. He really liked this big sister who knew how to make delicious ice cream.

  “Miss Miya, we would like to have a helping of red braised pork please,” Curtis said to Yabemiya.

  “Sure.” Miya nodded with a smile, and continued, “Is Mr. Curtis going to order breakfast for himself too? Boss’s culinary skills are really awesome.”


  “I……” Curtis pondered as he looked at little Kyle who was sitting next to him before he smilingly said, “Then, I shall have a red braised pork set meal too.”


  “Alright, please wait a moment.” Yabemiya smiled and nodded as she walked toward the kitchen. Delicious food was the cure for everything.

  The customers’ orders were served gradually. Although all the different races were sitting together, there wasn’t any chaos. All the customers were enjoying their breakfast quietly with happy smiles on their faces. Seeing them made one feel relaxed and happy.

  “Gulp.” Kyle couldn’t help but swallow his saliva when he looked at an elf next to him eating the Yangzhou fried rice with grace and happiness.

  “These are your red braised pork. Please enjoy them.” Yabemiya placed two bowls of red braised pork and two bowls of rice in front of Curtis and Kyle before she smiled and turned away.

  “Smells so good!”


  The aroma from the red braised pork greeted them, and made Curtis and Kyle shift their attention from that Yangzhou fried rice to the red braised pork. The red braised pork, which was glistening with layers of lean and fatty meat, was held in a black terracotta bowl. Its thick and rich aroma was so strong and aggressive that it couldn’t be ignored.

  It wasn’t fat and greasy like the fatty meat they saw normally. The bright red color was so enticing that one almost forgot how the fatty meat looked originally.

  “So, this is the red braised pork?” Kyle asked in disbelief. In his imagination, all the medicine that was supposed to cure him gave off a nauseating bitter and smelly taste.

  However, the red braised pork in front of him gave off such an enticing aroma that made him salivate.

  There was amazement in Curtis’s eyes too. He passed a long spoon to Kyle as he smilingly said, “Yes. Let’s try it.”


  He didn’t know if Mag’s method would work. He was still feeling very worried. He had gambled everything, and now he was hoping for a miracle that could stop Kyle’s suffering from his illness.

  Kyle took the long spoon and reached into the bowl. He was trying to cut the red braised pork into half as the whole piece was too big for him.

  Curtis was about to help as it wasn’t easy to cut open a piece of meat with a spoon.

  However, Kyle’s spoon cut open the skin easily, and separated the red braised pork into halves without any resistance.

  The red braised pork that was separated was soft but still holding up. The interior was still bright red as the glistening red gravy had already seeped into the meat.

  “I am going to start eating.” Kyle put half of the red braised pork into his mouth. The sweet gravy woke his dormant taste buds instantly.

  The taste buds that were tortured by all sorts of weird medicine began to cheer ecstatically as if they were having their first drops of water amidst a drought.

  Under the chewy skin was the fatty meat that melted away as soon as it entered the mouth. Sweet and soft, fatty yet not greasy. The sweet gravy was released with a gentle bite, and a beautiful taste erupted upon his taste buds.

  This long-lost scrumptious taste made little Kyle want to cheer.

  He had forgotten about all the painful experiences during this whole period of time. Everything seemed insignificant in front of such a delicacy.

  The pain on his body seemed to disappear as well. At this moment, he only wanted to immerse himself in the taste of the red braised pork.

  As he swallowed a mouthful of the red braised pork, little Kyle could feel a warmth flowed down his throat and into his body. The pain in his body that was brought by his sickness was obviously getting milder.

  Kyle opened his eyes with a surprised look on his blushing face, and said to Curtis, “Oh, it’s so delicious! Father, this is the most delicious food I have ever eaten apart from ice cream.”


  “Then eat more,” Curtis said smilingly.

  “Yes.” Kyle nodded as he scooped a spoonful of rice into his mouth and chewed hard. He felt that even this normal rice began to taste so sweet and delicious. A mouthful of red braised pork and a mouthful of rice; he ate very enthusiastically. There was a happy smile on his face as he immersed himself in it.

  Curtis watched Kyle with gratification. During this whole period of time, Kyle had never enjoyed a good meal due to his body’s condition. He could only eat a few mouthfuls before he had to stop. He didn’t expect he would take the initiative to eat today.

  Is it really so delicious? Curtis had a hint of doubt in his eyes. He used the chopsticks to pick up a piece of red braised pork and ate it.

  A scrumptious taste exploded in his mouth, and made Curtis’s eyes lit up instantly.

  “This taste…… It’s incredible!”


  How could there be such delicious food in this world!? It is just normal meat, so how did he make it so delicious?!
