"It has wings now?"
Meg looked at Amy, who was standing at the entrance of the kitchen with Ugly Duckling in her arms, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
"Yes! Yes! Look, the two tufts of fur on its back have turned white, and they look like a pair of little wings, "Amy said as she pointed at Ugly Duckling's back.
Meg put down the kitchen knife in his hand, and made his way to the entrance of the kitchen. Ugly Duckling, which was in Amy's arms, still seemed to be a little sleepy, and it snuggled up against Amy's chest before closing its eyes comfortably.
On its back, two tufts of white fur had appeared, and upon closer inspection, they really did look like a pair of little white wings. They were symmetrical on both sides, and they looked quite adorable.
"Hmm, they do look like little wings." Meg nodded. These little white wings that had suddenly appeared on Ugly Duckling's back were indeed a little strange. Could it be that it had evolved after eating the steak with red wine the night before?
"I knew it wasn't a kitten, but an ugly duckling. When it grows up, it'll become a beautiful white swan!" Amy said with elation. She looked down at Ugly Duckling in her arms, and licked her lips as she said, "When that time comes, I'll … I'll …"
"Meow ~"
All of Ugly Duckling's fur immediately stood on end, and it looked up at Amy with a fearful expression as it shook its head.
"It's alright, it's alright. You're still young, so we'll talk about this when you grow up." A smile appeared on Amy's face again as she gently stroked Ugly Duckling's head.
"Meow ~"
Ugly Duckling closed its eyes comfortably, and nestled in Amy's arms again.
"Could it be some kind of mutated demon beast?" Meg reached out to touch the two little wings on Ugly Duckling's back. The white fur was slightly harder than the other fur, and it was arranged in layers like a bird's wings. However, there was nothing unusual about the white fur, and there were no fleshy wings, either.
"Father, will Ugly Duckling be able to fly when it grows up?" Amy asked as she looked at Meg with anticipation in her eyes.
"If it's really an ugly duckling, it'll be able to fly when it grows up." Meg nodded with a smile. The herb gatherers had picked up the egg from the cliff, and now, Ugly Duckling had grown some wing-like feathers on its back. Even Meg wasn't sure what it would become when it grew up.
However, what was certain was that they had found a treasure.
"Great! Although the roast goose is delicious … I can consider riding it into the sky to play when it grows up. "Amy's eyes lit up, as if she had just made a very difficult decision.
"Hmm, that's a good idea." Meg smiled and nodded. "Then Amy, go wash up first. Father will help you braid your hair later."
"Alright." Amy nodded obediently before carrying Ugly Duckling upstairs.
…
"Did you hear? Mr. Mak had a duel with Head Chef Beate from Ducas Restaurant at the Aden Chamber of Commerce's banquet last night." Harrison was standing in the long line outside the restaurant, and he was drinking with a friend the night before, and he had heard something interesting.
"How was it? Who won? " All of the customers were immediately intrigued upon hearing that. Head Chef Beate was the most renowned chef in Chaos City.
"That goes without saying. Boss Mag won, of course. I was present at the banquet last night, and Mr. Mak completely won over the city lord, the president of the Aden Chamber of Commerce, and Young Mistress Hill with a black pepper steak! "A man in a lavish robe said with a smile.
"Mr. Mak beat Head Chef Beate!"
A commotion immediately erupted outside the restaurant. Of course, most of them were elated.
It was as if something that one was most proud of had finally won the approval of the public.
However, they were also a little concerned that if something like this were to become known by too many people, it would no longer belong to them. It was a very complex feeling.
"Steak? I don't recall seeing something like that on Amy's menu. Could it be that Mr. Mak is releasing a new dish? "
"It must be an extremely delicious dish to be able to win the approval of the city lord and the president of the Aden Chamber of Commerce. I wonder if Mr. Mak is going to release a new dish today!"
All of the customers were looking forward to seeing this. The roast beef kebabs had just given everyone a pleasant surprise not too long ago, and they were all wondering what kind of surprise this new dish would bring.
"Boss, we heard that you beat Head Chef Beate last night. Is that true?" Yabemiya turned to Meg with an incredulous look on her face as soon as she walked into the restaurant.
The head chef of Ducas Restaurant, Head Chef Beate, was widely acknowledged as one of the top chefs in Chaos City. She had once viewed him as her idol, but he had lost to Meg in a chef's competition.
In Yabemiya's heart, Meg also held an extremely high status, and had already surpassed Head Chef Beate.
However, she was still unable to repress her astonishment at this outcome.
Sally was also looking at Meg with a hint of surprise in her eyes. She was the first customer of Amy's, so she was well aware of the efforts that Meg had made to elevate Amy's from a small restaurant with only one dish on the menu to a restaurant that was so popular with its customers.
"That's right. Father cooked a super delicious steak last night, and he won." Before Meg had a chance to say anything, Amy nodded, and said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Big Sister Barbara; she also ate it."
"The steak was very delicious." Although it wasn't easy for her to praise others, she was still capable of being honest. "Alright, I'll give you that," said Babla as she nodded slightly.
"The restaurant is going to release a new dish today; it's the black pepper steak. If you want to try it, I can make breakfast for you," Meg said with a smile. Sharing his joy made him even happier.
After defeating Beate the night before, he had obtained a store, as well as a group of wealthy potential customers. This was undoubtedly going to be extremely beneficial to the development of the restaurant.
"I also want to eat beef and two tofu puddings!" Amy was the first to raise her hand.
"Then I'll also get a steak. I think it'll be very delicious." Yabemiya also raised her hand.
"I'll also get a steak." Sally nodded in response.
"I … I'll have it medium rare." Barbara was a little hesitant.
"Alright, steak and tofu pudding; what an interesting combination." Meg smiled as he made his way into the kitchen.
…
"When is this Suede going to open? I've been waiting for almost half an hour. "
