Madam … Are you alright?! "
The black cat used its sharp claws to drag Camilla down from the wall and asked as it undid the Spirit Binding Rope.
"Who is that woman?! How dare she hit my pretty face with a chair … Ouch … It hurts … "Camilla covered her face and complained.
"I didn't see anything before I was knocked out …" The black cat said with some lingering fear. Although it was not very powerful, its perception and speed were comparable to that of a seventh-level magical beast. However, it was knocked out before it could see anything.
"Although her face was covered, that woman gave me a familiar feeling, like I've seen her somewhere before. Who could she be? And what was the last thing she said? " Camilla patted her head, but it was as if she had drunk too much. The only thing she could remember before she fainted was that woman in a white dress and a veil hat and a chair approaching her quickly.
"Madam, could that woman be here to save Mr Mak? Maybe he knows something. "The black cat said carefully.
"That guy …" Camilla's gaze fell on the red Spirit Binding Rope on the ground, and her mind immediately recalled the shameful binding and the whip on her body.
"Why did I have such a big reaction! I'm a noble … S, how could I have a reaction to a whip? And … he's a man, a dirty man! "
Camilla's heart was in a mess. What happened today had completely overturned her usual style and understanding. The binding that was like a tortoise's shell, the cracking sound of the whip on her body, the bright red candle … all of this seemed to have opened the door to a new world.
"Madam, are we going to look for him now?" The black cat asked carefully.
"No." Camilla shook her head firmly. "I'm a little tired today. I'll settle the score with him tomorrow."
The rope had been tied up for a long time, and now she only felt that her legs were sore and weak. She just wanted to go back and lie down.
She did not know if that woman was still by Meg's side. It was not that she was afraid of her, but if she went to look for her in this state, she would most likely be knocked out by a chair. That would be too embarrassing.
"Alright." The black cat heaved a sigh of relief.
…
There was a long line at the entrance of Mamy's again. The popularity of the leaderboard dominating incident had decreased by quite a bit, but it was still a hot topic.
However, compared to the initial one-sided questioning, after many passers-by tried Mamy's food, they immediately became Mamy's fans. They spontaneously defended and spoke up for Mamy's, causing Mamy's reputation to skyrocket.
Moreover, after many customers tried the restaurants according to the rankings, they did find some delicacies hidden in the many restaurants. This caused the Gourmet Rankings, which was originally doubted by many, to rise in popularity. It began to become an important aid for many people to find delicacies.
Mamy's high prices made many customers flinch. However, there were still many delicious and inexpensive delicacies on the list that were highly sought after by foodies.
On the second floor of Sith Restaurant, the restaurant manager looked at the long line outside the restaurant. He looked a little excited at the skinny middle-aged man dressed in a chef's uniform beside him and said, "Boss, we haven't opened for business yet, but there are already customers lining up outside the restaurant. Moreover, they all specifically ordered freshwater seafood soup. Finally, more customers know about our restaurant. Your insistence on making the best freshwater seafood soup for so many years was not in vain."
"The river has frozen over these days, so it's not easy to fish for freshwater seafood. Tomorrow, we have to discuss with the fishermen. Even if the price is higher, we have to let them cut through the ice to fish. Otherwise, the customers will definitely be disappointed when they don't get to eat the freshwater seafood soup," the man said with a smile.
"Boss, if you ask me, we can secretly buy some farmed freshwater seafood. Anyway, the taste won't be too different." The manager lowered his voice and said, "Cutting through the ice to fish, those fishermen will definitely demand an exorbitant price. If we don't raise the price of the freshwater seafood soup, I'm afraid we will suffer a loss."
"No, using freshly caught freshwater seafood is our tradition and also our signature. If we use farmed freshwater seafood, wouldn't we be smashing our own signature? We can't do this kind of thing." The boss shook his head decisively. His tone was firm and there was no room for negotiation.
The manager opened his mouth and did not mention this matter again. After a while, he said with some indignation, "In order to make this soup, we have been constantly improving and persisting for more than ten years. What right does that Mamy's have to suppress us? I heard that the dish is not a soup at all. It's just some soup in it. Isn't it obvious that they deliberately raised it to first place?!"
"The fact that the freshwater seafood soup can be raised to second place on the rankings shows that the judging this time is quite fair. That Mamy's can dominate the six rankings. He must have his own unique points." The boss shook his head and appeared rather indifferent.
"If he really has the ability, then so be it. I just can't stand those fellows who rely on underhanded means to get to the top. We almost reached the top." The manager was still unconvinced. He looked at the boss and said, "Boss, let's go challenge Mamy's! Let's take back the first place on the Soup rankings fair and square! "
"This matter …" The boss was a little hesitant. It would be a lie to say that he did not care at all. After so many years of adhering to this ancestral freshwater seafood soup and constantly researching and improving it, it finally received attention because of the Gourmet Cuisine Rankings.
Although there was only a difference of one place between second place and first place, it had a completely different meaning.
…
"Father, where did you go this afternoon? Little Amy was so worried about you. Besides, I didn't have anything to eat at noon. Although it's late to eat Sister Bean Sprout's roast beef kebabs, I'm still so hungry! " Amy threw herself into Meg's arms as soon as she entered the door. She asked softly with a somewhat scrutinizing gaze.
"I went to do something, so I didn't make it back in time. I'll make something delicious for Amy tonight," Meg said with a smile.
"Okay, okay." Hearing that there was something delicious to eat, Amy's eyes lit up and she nodded her little head.
Meg took a look at the long line outside the restaurant, and did not see any trace of Irina. However, it made sense. She had eaten so much in the afternoon, so she shouldn't be hungry now.
After the busy evening business hours, Meg waved goodbye to the ladies at the door. He stood at the door and looked around, but did not see any trace of Irina. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"Father, are you waiting for someone?" Amy asked Meg curiously as she hugged Ugly Duckling.
"Yes, I'm waiting for someone. She should be here." Meg nodded. Seeing that there was no one around, he turned around and prepared to go in and wait.
"Apart from Phyllis and Gina, there are many other women. An 8th-tier Frost Dragon, a 7th-tier elf, a 7th-tier spatial magic caster, a half-dragon, and a little elf are all obediently waiting on you. Should I praise you?"
A slightly jealous voice sounded from behind.
