"Host! What are you doing? In the test field for the God of Cookery, even if you drink brine, you won't succeed in committing suicide! "
The system said in a flustered manner.
Meg's gaze was cold. When he was angry, even the system was afraid of him.
However, this brine that was so smelly that it could make one faint actually tasted gentle after entering his mouth. The stench gradually disappeared, and when he smelled it carefully, there was actually a trace of fragrance. As the brine spread on the tip of his tongue, the fragrance became more and more intense. It was not the fragrance of spices, but a more unique fragrance. It was the fragrance of various ingredients that had been fermented for a long time, and it was exceptionally mellow.
"Gulp."
Meg's throat rolled, and he swallowed a mouthful of brine.
The fragrance lingered in his mouth for a long time, and it only dissipated after a long time.
"It's actually this taste..." Meg slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes were filled with surprise.
Stinky Tofu was definitely a taboo food for him, and it had never appeared on his menu before. He was also unable to understand why there was someone in this world who could eat something so smelly that it made one want to run away.
However, this mouthful of brine had greatly changed Meg's view of the dish. What kind of taste would be produced when the rich and mellow brine collided with the tofu? It was a delicacy that was worth looking forward to.
The fragrance in his mouth gradually dissipated, and the stench in the air assaulted him once again. This time, although Meg did not exaggeratedly jump a few meters away, he still took a step back. Looking at the brine in the pot, he resisted the urge to take another mouthful to prolong his life. He closed his eyes, and his heart slowly calmed down. Then, he tried to sense the smell in the air, and gradually separated a part of the fragrance. After that, he focused on sensing the fragrance in the air.
When he opened his eyes again, Meg felt that the stench in the air was no longer as pungent as before. Although it was still not a pleasant smell, at least it allowed him to continue making the Stinky Tofu.
The complicated process meant that he needed to spend more time to complete every step, and he also needed to connect every step perfectly.
This also meant that the possibility of Meg making a mistake had increased.
"However!"
"No."
"Still lacking a little."
...
The system replied coldly. Meg was immersed in the stench, and he was madly making the Stinky Tofu.
He had already forgotten what a stench was. His nose only followed the various smells, and he was trying to find the most harmonious combination.
…
Beep beep … beep beep …
At five o 'clock in the morning, Sally was woken up by a strange noise. The warm and comfortable quilt made her unwilling to open her eyes. She had never felt that the quilt could be so soft and comfortable. The bed and pillow were also exceptionally soft, as if she was sinking into a ball of cotton.
"Wait … this is …!!!"
Sally immediately opened her eyes. Looking at the strange yet familiar surroundings, her eyes gradually widened.
As if thinking of something, Sally abruptly turned her head to look beside her. There was no one else on the spacious bed, which made her sigh in relief.
Sally lifted the quilt and took a look. Her clothes and stockings were still on her. Although the cheongsam was a little messy, it should be normal after sleeping with clothes on.
Only then did Sally completely relax. Thinking back, after she had accompanied Anna to bed last night, she had only wanted to close her eyes and rest for a while, but she was simply too tired, and ended up sleeping all the way until the sun came up.
Thinking that this was Meg's bed, Sally's face immediately reddened. She didn't expect to fall asleep on a man's bed and sleep until dawn!
"But … when I was lying on the bed last night, I seemed to be wearing shoes. Then why …" Sally looked at the side of the bed, and saw a pair of black leather shoes neatly placed on the side of the bed.
"Could it be …" Sally suddenly remembered that ants seemed to have crawled over her feet in her sleep last night. Thinking back, she still had some recollection of that numbing feeling, and her face, which was already a little red, became even redder.
Although she didn't think that Meg was a despicable person who would take advantage of her, and perhaps he just wanted to let her have a good night's sleep, the thought of a man taking off her shoes for her and even touching her feet made her feel both embarrassed and angry. She wanted to find a hole to hide in.
"Huh? Big Sister Aisha, why are you here? Where's Father? "
Amy was woken up by the alarm clock. She sat up and looked at Sally in confusion.
"Didn't Big Sister Aisha go back last night? Did she sleep with Uncle Meg? "Anna poked her head out from behind Amy with a curious expression.
Ugly Duckling was trying its best not to fall off the bed, and also looked at Sally with wide eyes.
Sally turned around to look at the three curious little ones, and a panicked expression appeared on her face. She waved her hands, and said, "It's not what you think."
"Wow! This is the first time something like this has happened. " Amy jumped down from the small bed with excitement on her face. She then lifted a corner of the blanket, and asked curiously, "Then where would Father be hiding?"
"There's nothing under the blanket?"
"Then what about under the bed?"
"There's nothing under the bed, either." Anna put down the blanket in her hands, and looked up with a shake of her head.
Ugly Duckling ran to the wardrobe with excitement on its face, and pulled on the wardrobe door.
Amy and Anna ran to the wardrobe at the same time, and then pulled open the wardrobe door on both sides.
There was nothing in the wardrobe aside from neatly folded clothes.
"There's nothing here."
Disappointment appeared on both Amy and Anna's faces.
"Phew …"
Sally heaved a sigh of relief. However, she then felt like crying. Why did she feel like she had dodged a bullet? Obviously, nothing had happened! She had only accidentally fallen asleep on Meg's bed.
"Don't worry, Big Sister Aisha. Even though we didn't find Father, we won't believe that nothing happened between the two of you," Amy consoled Sally.
"Yes, I once heard a storyteller say that when a man and a woman lie on the same bed, something will happen. However, whenever the storyteller reaches this part of the story, Grandpa will always cover my ears, but I'm sure it's something very important." Anna nodded in agreement.
Sally looked at Amy and Anna with her mouth slightly agape. She suddenly felt like she wouldn't be able to explain herself even if she had 10 mouths.
