"Wow!"
Gina's eyes lit up immediately.
The wonderful taste blossomed in her mouth. She seemed to see a brilliant rainbow being pulled down from the sky, and the flying kitchen knife sliced it into beautiful pieces. Then, they were stir-fried above the flame, and she ate them in one bite.
What a wonderful taste. Even the root of her tongue could feel that kind of happiness.
The taste of all the ingredients melted in her mouth and attacked her taste buds continuously. Even after she swallowed, the aroma still filled her mouth.
Gina felt that she had opened the door to a new world. Compared to this delicious fried rice, the fresh fish was not even worth mentioning.
"It's really too delicious!"
Gina looked at Meg with admiration and a smitten smile. There was actually someone in this world who could make such delicious food. Only the Chosen One could do it.
"Then eat more. If it's not enough, I can make more for you." Meg smiled. He had a little more pity for a foreigner, especially when she did not know how to speak. This kind of loneliness might be even deeper than his.
Gina understood Meg's gesture and nodded obediently. She held the spoon and continued to eat the fried rice with a blissful smile on her face.
Soon, the plate of Yangzhou fried rice was finished.
Meg reached out to stop Gina, who was about to start eating. He asked her to wait for a while before he went into the kitchen to make another plate of fried rice for her.
After finishing the two plates of Yangzhou fried rice, Gina smiled contentedly. She stood up and bowed to Meg to express her gratitude.
Although she was the princess of Lantisde, she had received strict training from the high priest since she was young. Hence, she did not enjoy the treatment of a princess, nor did she feel that she should do anything just because she was a princess.
According to the ancient teachings of Lantisde, she should devote herself to the Chosen One who saved her and let her eat such delicious food.
Gina was an obedient child, so she decided to follow the ancient teachings.
Of course, as a girl, she could not be too anxious and obvious about such things.
At least … she had to wait until there were only the two of them.
…
After breakfast, Meg sent Amy to school, and the busy business hours began again.
Gina stayed in the kitchen obediently. Occasionally, she would help pass a plate or something. However, most of the time, she would squat in a corner and whisper to the fish and shrimps that Meg and the rest could not understand.
After the morning service ended, Meg asked everyone to stay behind and held a dialect conference. Everyone tried many languages and accents of different races and finally confirmed that they could not communicate with Gina through language.
Everyone left the restaurant.
Could it be that she's not from the Norland Continent like me? Meg looked at Gina with suspicion in his eyes. If he hadn't inherited Alex's memories, then his communication skills would be similar to Gina's.
Gina was a little disappointed, too. She wanted to tell Meg something and ask him to help Lantisde, but she didn't know how to express it.
Her tribesmen were still waiting for her to return in the dark seabed. That made her feel uneasy and anxious.
Meg looked at Gina, who was biting her lips anxiously, and consoled her gently, "Don't worry. If you really came here specially to look for me, I won't chase you away. There will always be a way."
Gina met Meg's eyes, and felt much calmer. Suddenly, she felt a little dizzy, and quickly ran upstairs. She could only maintain her human form for three hours without replenishing her water supply. Furthermore, she had almost exhausted her spiritual power to maintain her breathing yesterday. Now that she felt a lack of oxygen, she had to return to the water immediately.
"Is there too little water?" Meg went into the kitchen, took a bag of sea salt, and followed her upstairs.
He knocked on the bathroom door first, but did not hear any response. After hesitating for a while, Meg pushed the door open and went in.
There was a neatly folded sailor suit on the clothes rack at the side. In the bathtub, Gina, who was wearing an aqua blue school swimsuit, was lying quietly with her eyes closed. For some reason, she did not transform back into her mermaid form this time. Instead, she had entered a deep sleep state.
"It is indeed very suitable." Meg's gaze stopped on Gina for a while, and he nodded with satisfaction.
"Stop, stop, stop … I can't indulge in the disguise game!" Meg forcefully shifted his gaze away. Then, he used the sea salt to adjust the concentration of the water in the bathtub to a suitable amount.
"It's alright to keep a mermaid in the bathtub for a day or two, but it won't work after a long time. It will be very inconvenient for her to bathe or go to the toilet." Meg looked at Gina, who had flipped over comfortably in the bathtub, and turned to walk out of the door. At the same time, he said in his heart, "System, how much is that big fish tank of yours? The kind that can keep mermaids. "
"Host, mermaids are protected animals. They cannot be kept privately. They have to be handed over to the country!"
"Tsk, do you think they are salamanders?"
"The system thinks that as a candidate for the God of Cookery, the host's first thought when he sees a mermaid should be how to make a braised mermaid. That is how a qualified God of Cookery would think. If the host can make a delicious braised mermaid, the system can provide sufficient ingredients to guarantee a pure wild mermaid."
"Scram!"
…
After some bargaining, Meg spent 2,000 copper coins to buy a big fish tank with automatic water refilling and cleaning functions from the system. It was three meters long and two meters tall. Even if Gina was in her mermaid form, she could still roll around in the fish tank easily.
Because the size of the fish tank was too big, Meg placed it in the spare room beside the master bedroom on the second floor. After the expansion of the shop, the size of the house had doubled. Therefore, there were two rooms that Meg had set aside as backup. Now, they came in handy.
Before he figured out why Gina was looking for him, he planned to take her in for a while.
There was a language barrier, and she couldn't live on land for a long time. If he let her go now, it would be no different from killing her.
Meg couldn't do such a thing.
…
In the Food Association's building, the staff were busy.
The results of the latest Delicious Cuisine Rankings would be released in two days. After three months, the Delicious Cuisine Rankings would be released again after a drastic reform.
Whether they could produce a ranking that satisfied the customers this time would determine whether the Food Association could continue to be Chaos City's food vane.
The vice president hurried into the president's office with a stack of papers. He looked at Robert, who was behind the desk, and said, "President, most of the judges have already concluded the selection for the Delicious Cuisine Rankings this time. Three independent statistical teams have done the calculations, and the preliminary results are out. But this ranking …"
"What's wrong with the ranking?" Robert took the stack of statistical reports and looked at them. He was a little surprised, but at the same time, he felt that it was reasonable.
"President, does this ranking … need to be revised? That doesn't seem very good, right? "the vice president said hesitantly.
