After ordering the food, Harrison was all smiles, while Georgina felt as though she had fallen into a trap.

  For these two years, she was basically surviving on IV drips.

  The feeling of hunger was long gone, and she was not interested in any food. She even felt repulsed by food.

  Now, she actually ordered a set of Mapo Tofu for herself.

  She fell silent for a while, and was about to find an explanation for this situation.

  “Your eyes are very beautiful,” Harrison said seriously as he looked into her eyes, interrupting her thoughts.

  Georgina was stunned, and she quickly blushed.

  Her eyes were of a pale purple color, and she had been praised for her eyes by many ever since she was young.

  If there was anything that could be praised about her right now, it seemed like it would only be her eyes.

  Only, people could not see her eyes most of the time.

  And for these two years, other than her father, it seemed only Harrison had told her that.

  “Thank you.” Georgina smiled meekly. It was a foreign feeling, but she could not help but feel warm inside.

  ?Kenneth also smiled. However, he started looking at Harrison with a more complicated feeling. This fatty actually flirted with his daughter right in front of him. However, he could not stop him.

  Harrison looked at the smile that flashed across Georgina’s face, and felt encouraged. He asked, “Miss Georgina, you must have grown up in Chaos City, right?”


  “Mm-hm.” Georgina nodded.

  “In that case, you must know Sitter Alley. 10 years ago, that was the place where all the eateries and snacks gathered in Chaos City. It was the source of almost all novelty snacks, which would then spread to all the streets, alleys, and food stalls. But that’s where you could get the most authentic taste.”


  “I know that place!” Georgina could not help but raise her voice a little. When she was young, she stayed near Sitter Alley, the heaven of her childhood. Every day when she was released from Chaos School, she would go to Sitter Alley for some snacks first.

  Thinking back, it was already more than 10 years ago. Back then, her mother was the one who would fetch her from school. Her mother was the world’s gentlest mother who would be willing to eat everything with her.

  “I made a trip to Sitter Alley a few days ago, and there were not many of those eateries left. I heard that most of them had moved to Aden Square, and some of them had closed down. I doubt it’ll be easy to find the tastes of our childhood anymore,” Harrison said with a sigh.

  “They’re… gone?” Georgina could not hide the disappointment in her eyes. She had always gone to Sitter Alley once in a while in the past, but not in the recent two years. She did not know that it had already declined.

  Harrison looked at Georgina with a smile. “Sitter Alley might have declined, but the snacks with a classic taste can withstand the test of time. If you want to eat them again, I can bring you around the streets and alleys to look for them again. We will definitely find them.”


  Georgina looked at Harrison. There was a ray of light. There seemed to be a crack in her sealed-up heart, and the ray of light had shone in through the crack.

  “Ahem… if you don’t mind, I can join you too.” Kenneth could not hold himself back. He let out a dry cough to make his presence known.

  Georgina looked away with a blush. She lowered her gaze, and did not reply to Harrison further.

  “Uncle, if you are willing to go, there will be no problem about that.” Harrison was not shy at all. However, it was not very appropriate to flirt with the man’s daughter in front of him.

  However, Miss Georgina smiled and talked to him. She even ordered a set of Mapo Tofu. That was not a bad start.

  Now, what he was worried about was whether the Mapo Tofu would fail him. After all, the savory tofu pudding was rejected. The most important thing was whether the first bite of Mapo Tofu would capture her heart or make her put her chopsticks down.

  The temporary silence was interrupted by the dishes being served.

  “Please enjoy.”


  Yabemiya placed the dishes on the table, and left with a smile.

  Meanwhile, Georgina appeared to be attracted by the Mapo Tofu, which was giving off a tingling spicy scent.

  On a white porcelain plate were small cubes of tofu submerged in a bright red gravy. Amidst the red and white were some minced meat and fresh chopped green onions sprinkled on top. The bright color made the dish look delectable.

  Georgina kept telling herself,?

  However, the fragrance and steam of the spiciness kept wafting over and tempting her.

  Her desire to eat, which had been sealed for a long time, was like baby shoots in spring, peeking out of the soil under the attack of the fragrance.

  Her psychological resistance to food seemed weak and fragile before this strong attack.

  “The color looks very vibrant, and I can already smell the spiciness. The shape of this tofu is firmer compared to the tofu pudding. The taste, however…” Harrison looked at Georgina with a smile, and said, “Miss Georgina, why don’t we both give it a try, and see who exactly has gotten it right.”


  “I’m only giving it a taste,” Georgina said seriously. After that, she picked up a spoon, and scooped up a piece of tofu.

  The small cube of tofu had obvious edges, and was covered in the thick red gravy. The minced meat and chopped green onions as decorations made it look even more enticing.

  Georgina swallowed. She was actually secretly looking forward to tasting it.

  This was a very peculiar feeling. The last time she had actually looked forward to eating had been probably more than two years ago.

  For the past two years, there had been almost nothing that could make her excited.

  Perhaps it was because the smell of this Mapo Tofu was really too enticing. Perhaps, it was because the person sitting in front of her had warmed her heart and stomach, making her feel that there were still beautiful things in this world.

  She blew on it, and after it appeared to have cooled down, Georgina put it into her mouth.

  Hot!!!

  The moment the tofu entered her mouth, the scalding sensation caught Georgina off guard.

  Although the surface temperature had decreased significantly, the interior of the tofu was still as hot as when it was just taken out of the pot. That made her shudder.

  She stopped herself from spitting out the tofu, and opened her mouth to take deep breaths to cool down the tofu.

  That was when the taste of the Mapo Tofu came in.

  The soft and tender tofu melted in her mouth immediately. The minced meat also disintegrated the moment she bit into it.

  The numbness, spiciness, freshness, fragrance, and tenderness exploded in her mouth instantly, bringing her taste buds back to life.

  Her taste buds that did not know what was flavor anymore were hit with a strong attack without any warning, wave after wave without stopping.

  “Ah~~”


  Georgina closed her eyes slightly, but still could not help but let a moan escape her mouth.
