Sally felt as if she had plunged into a sea of delicious food, and was instantly filled with delicious and warm feelings.
The egg wrapped around the rice was so fragrant and tender. The mellow ham, the sweet and crispy winter bamboo shoots, the sweet and fragrant green beans … The taste of each ingredient was so distinct, yet they all blended together perfectly in this mouthful.
She tasted the prawns. The fresh flavor of the prawns overflowed in her mouth, as if she had tasted the sea.
This was the kind of freshness that was hard to find even in the Wind Valley. The prawns that were kept alive by magic were not as fresh and tender as this. Even she had only tasted such fresh prawns two years ago when she followed her grandfather to the seaside in the north of The Wind Forest, but it was still not as fresh and tender as the prawns she was eating right now.
Where did this restaurant owner get such fresh and delicious prawns? If they were transported from the seaside to Chaos City, the price of a single prawn would be more than five gold coins.
There was more than one prawn in this plate of fried rice, but he only sold it for 600 copper coins. Was this restaurant owner … stupid? A trace of doubt flashed through her mind.
When she bit into the tender egg and touched the sweet rice with the tip of her tongue, she was stunned, and then suddenly opened her eyes.
This taste!
This is the taste of the Spring of Life!
Although she was not a member of the royal family, her clan was very noble among the elves, so she had been baptized by the Spring of Life many times. She even drank a small cup of the Spring of Life at her coming-of-age ceremony, so she was very sensitive and familiar with the taste of the holy spring of the elves.
However, she actually tasted the Spring of Life in a restaurant owned by a human in Chaos City. This absurd feeling made her unable to wrap her head around it for a while. She even wondered if she was hallucinating because she was too homesick.
As she chewed the rice, the sweet taste of the rice along with the taste of all kinds of ingredients kept hitting her taste buds. Among them, the unique fragrance of the Spring of Life was so clear, confirming her guess over and over again.
After swallowing, a warm current flowed through her meridians and spread throughout her body, and the tiredness and hunger that had accumulated from days of traveling quickly disappeared.
This is definitely the Spring of Life!
Sally was completely certain. Her rationality told her that she should point her bow at this man and ask him about the origin of the Spring of Life.
But … this Yangzhou Fried Rice is so delicious that I can't spare any time to do this!
The chefs in her castle were the best in the entire clan. She had attended many banquets in the royal palace, and even tasted the dishes cooked by the king of the Roth Empire when he brought his chefs to the elven race as guests.
However, compared to this Yangzhou fried rice, those seemingly exquisite dishes seemed tasteless.
Such delicious Yangzhou fried rice was made by a human being, and a man at that.
Another mouthful?
Sally felt that there was a devil tempting her, but she chose not to resist. The spoon touched the plate, and the second spoonful of fried rice was already in her mouth. She closed her eyes again, savoring the special taste of each ingredient.
The holy spring of the elves, the duty of the elves, all these things were thrown to the back of her mind. There was only one word in her mind: eat, eat, eat!
After one bite, she took another. Although her deep-rooted etiquette made her restrain herself from wolfing down the food, compared to her usual slow chewing, she had never been like this before. She had completely thrown her previous doubts to the back of her mind.
Mag looked on silently from the side with a smile on his face. As expected, it was a feeling of pride and satisfaction to see a customer completely immersed in his cooking. Perhaps this was the thrill of conquering someone's taste buds. As expected, it was much more interesting than conquering a woman.
Amy's face was also full of pride. This was made by Father, who could make the best rainbow fried rice in the world. Even big sister elves fell in love with this taste after one bite.
Sally finished the Yangzhou fried rice as if there was no one else around. When she put the spoon on the plate and was about to take another bite, she suddenly realized that there was not a single grain of rice left on the plate.
"It's finished just like that?" Sally was stunned. She felt as if she had just started eating. Looking at the plate, which could almost reflect her shadow, she felt a little ashamed that she had not maintained her elegance in front of others. Fortunately, she resisted the urge to lick the plate.
However, how could one serving of such delicious food be enough? Sally looked up at Meg and said expectantly, "Boss, please give me another serving."
"Okay, please wait a moment." Meg replied with a smile and turned to walk to the kitchen. Sure enough, even an elegant elf could not resist the temptation of Yangzhou fried rice.
However, he was also a little worried. This rice was grown with the Spring of Life. If she tasted it, he did not know if there would be any trouble.
"It's so delicious," Mobai said with a satisfied expression as he put down the spoon in his hand. Two servings of Yangzhou fried rice were just enough to fill his stomach, and all his fatigue was gone. He had not felt so relaxed in a long time. It was so good.
"Grandpa Dwarf Mobai, do you want two more servings?" Amy asked expectantly.
Looking at Amy's big expectant eyes, Mobai almost could not help but nod. He quickly waved his hand and said, "No, two servings are just enough for tonight. I can even drink some wine when I go back. What a beautiful day."
"Okay, then two servings will be two and sixty-two. That's twelve gold coins in total." Although Amy was a little disappointed, she quickly regained her cheerful expression. She jumped down from the chair, walked up to Mobai, and held out her two little hands. "Pay up."
"Well, you calculated quickly tonight." Mobai was a little surprised, but he still counted twelve gold coins from his wallet and put them in Amy's little hands.
"Goodbye, Mr. Mak." Mobai stood up and said to Meg in the kitchen. Then he looked at Amy and said, "Goodbye, little one."
"Goodbye," Meg said with a smile in the kitchen.
"One, two, three … Goodbye, Grandpa Dwarf Mobai," Amy answered without raising her head. Her eyes were shining as she counted the gold coins.
"This prefix …" Mobai's mouth twitched. It sounded a little weird, but he smiled and went out.
"Who is this man?" Sally looked at Meg in the kitchen. Although she could only see the side of his face through the crystal, she could not take her eyes off him.
A luxurious restaurant, delicious fried rice, fresh prawns, Spring of Life … and a cute half-elf daughter. How many secrets does this seemingly ordinary man have?
Or what kind of story does he have?
