Words couldn't describe the wonderful taste, and she couldn't control her body's reaction.
Georgina felt as if she had completely fallen into the Mapo Tofu. Her body and mind couldn't resist it at all. At this moment, it became the most wonderful catalyst.
Yes, she couldn't help but want to cater to its deliciousness.
She couldn't resist.
This was different from any food she had eaten in the past. That distinct taste and unique texture crushed all of the delicacies in her memory.
The pure numbing taste was refreshing. After the spiciness was mixed with the scalding tofu, it brought about an even stronger impact.
That impact was something that no food could give her.
The thin crack in her heart was forcefully torn open at this moment, allowing an even brighter light to shine in.
She seemed to see a small alley vaguely. It was a narrow and crowded alley, but the alley was filled with all kinds of food stalls.
People were wandering between the stalls, tasting all kinds of food.
And in the crowd, she even saw a gentle woman holding the hand of a little girl in red. She was elegantly eating with the little girl, and a gentle smile was on her face the entire time.
After swallowing a mouthful of Mapo Tofu, Georgina's forehead was already covered in sweat, and tears were glistening in the corners of her eyes.
"Are you alright?" Harrison asked with concern.
"I … I'm just a little burned by the spiciness." Georgina avoided Harrison's gaze. The spicy tofu slid down her throat and turned into a warm current that spread throughout her body. Only then did the spiciness really start to show.
Georgina hurriedly lowered her head and ate a mouthful of rice. The soft rice had a pleasant fragrance, and the more she chewed, the sweeter and sweeter it became. It perfectly suppressed the spiciness of the Mapo Tofu.
"This rice … is delicious too!" Georgina looked at the rice in front of her with disbelief. The grains were more slender than the ones she usually ate, and the grains were even and crystal clear.
After swallowing a mouthful of rice, she couldn't help but stare at the Mapo Tofu.
The spiciness was addictive, and it made people unable to stop.
"I'll just eat one more mouthful, one last mouthful." Georgina stared at the Mapo Tofu and prepared herself mentally. Then, she picked up the spoon and scooped another spoonful of tofu. This time, she didn't rush to put it into her mouth. She carefully blew on it for a while, and then … she was still burned.
Sometimes, burning the mouth was also a happy thing.
The delicious taste danced on the tip of her tongue. Georgina closed her eyes, and a tear fell from the corner of her eye.
How blissful.
This feeling was simply too blissful.
For more than two years, she had been living in the shadows.
At this moment, she finally felt the scorching sunlight enveloping her once more.
It turned out that what she hated wasn't the food, but her past self …
But now, it seemed that the one he shouldn't hate the most was himself.
"It's so delicious …"
She swallowed the tofu with tears in her eyes and ate another mouthful of rice. Georgina's bag had been completely thrown away by her, and she scooped another spoonful of Mapo Tofu into her mouth.
Spicy and refreshing, one mouthful after another, he simply couldn't stop.
"Looks like … it is indeed very appetizing." Harrison's lips curled up slightly when he saw this. He swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Although he had lost, it seemed like he had won again. Anyway, he was happy to see Georgina take the initiative to eat.
Kenneth looked at Georgina, who was enjoying her food. This bald, tattooed uncle who looked rather mighty had tears in his eyes, and he had a gratified expression on his face.
It had been two years, and he finally saw Georgina pick up the spoon herself and eat in big mouthfuls.
Many sleepless nights, he wanted to ask others, "What should I do if my child doesn't eat?"
The matter that had troubled him so much that his hair had turned white was finally resolved at this moment.
Then, his gaze landed on Harrison, and there was a hint of approval in his judging gaze. If it weren't for this little fatty today, he probably wouldn't have been able to make Georgina take the initiative to eat. However, if he wanted to pursue Georgina, then he wouldn't agree so easily.
"Ding!"
The spoon touched the bottom of the bowl, and the rice could already be seen. However, there was still more than half of the Mapo Tofu left.
Georgina was stunned for a moment, and then her face flushed red.
She … actually finished an entire bowl of rice!
"I haven't touched my bowl yet. Why don't you eat first?" Harrison smiled as he placed his bowl of rice in front of Georgina.
Georgina looked at Harrison, and then at the bowl of rice. She suddenly smiled at Harrison, and said, "Thank you."
Then, she picked up the spoon and continued eating.
"Is it really that appetizing?" Harrison asked Yabemiya to add another bowl of rice for him. He also scooped up a spoonful of Mapo Tofu curiously and put it into his mouth.
Although it had been on the table for some time, the instant the Mapo Tofu entered his mouth, it still made him shiver.
The tofu melted in his mouth, and a spicy taste blossomed in his mouth. He was caught off guard by the delicious taste.
"Sss ~ Hoo ~" After swallowing a mouthful of Mapo Tofu, Harrison opened his mouth and exhaled. The spicy and salty taste filled his mouth. Right now, he just wanted to find a bowl of rice and eat it …
In the kitchen, Meg looked at Georgina, who was enjoying her meal, and couldn't help but murmur, "Harrison still has some skills."
"What did you say?" Phyllis, who was loading the plate, turned around and asked.
"Nothing. I said that the barbecued meat needs to be brushed with the sauce again," Meg said with a smile.
He could work hard to help an anorexic patient regain her appetite, but he would have to work harder to help her walk out of her depressed state of mind.
After finishing the second bowl of rice, the plate of Mapo Tofu was also empty.
"Burp ~" Georgina let out a burp, and then covered her mouth in embarrassment.
Harrison, who had finished eating first, also put down his spoon at about the same time. He looked at Georgina with a smile, and said, "Clearly, you've won. This Mapo Tofu is indeed a very appetizing dish. It's not suitable to be a snack by itself."
"Mm-hm," Georgina replied softly. The smile on her face showed that she was in a good mood.
"I'm willing to accept my loss. I can agree to one of your requests." Harrison looked at Georgina with a serious expression, and asked, "What do you want me to do?"
Georgina lowered her head and pondered for a while. As if she had made up her mind, she raised her head and looked at Harrison, and said, "Can you accompany me … to find those snacks?"
Her hand, which was hanging by her side, subconsciously grasped the corner of her clothes. After saying that, she looked away as if she was waiting for judgment.
Harrison was slightly taken aback, and then a smile appeared on his face. He nodded, and said, "Sure, I can accompany you at any time. I'll be at your beck and call."
Georgina looked at Harrison, and her eyes lit up. A smile slowly bloomed on her pale face.
She had found light again.
A light that was willing to shine on her body.
