"Is it delicious?" Xiao Yanyu nervously asked as she watched Bu Fang put the Pineapple Jade Heart Cake into his mouth. The light in her eyes became even more intense.
Bu Fang knitted his brows as he savored the strange taste of the Pineapple Jade Heart Cake. A strange expression appeared on his face … Was this really made by the same person? There was a huge difference in the taste.
"This taste … isn't very good. It's too sweet. Moreover, it was steamed for too long. The jade core inside is too hard. Also …"
Bu Fang subconsciously began to give pointers. He was serious when it came to food. Once he started to give an evaluation, it would be an unceasing torrent.
Xiao Xiaolong and Ouyang Xiaoyi stared dumbfoundedly at Bu Fang, who was getting more and more enthusiastic as he spoke. The corners of their mouths could not help but twitch.
"What are you eating? Stop eating! It's so unpalatable anyway! " Xiao Yanyu's charming face instantly flushed red. A dark red blush appeared on her face like clouds. She was both angry and infatuated. Her beauty was unparalleled.
She snatched the Pineapple Jade Heart Cake back and placed it back into the food container in a fit of pique.
Bu Fang was stunned. What was going on? Could it be that his evaluation was wrong? No … This Pineapple Jade Heart Cake was indeed unpalatable. It was obviously made by a novice.
It was on a completely different level from the pastries he had eaten earlier …
Oh … not on the same level? Bu Fang was stunned for a moment. Then, his gaze subconsciously fell on Xiao Yanyu. He could feel Xiao Yanyu's resentful gaze.
Bu Fang was not an idiot. He quickly understood what was going on. This Pineapple Jade Heart Cake was definitely made by Xiao Yanyu and not by her mother … This would explain why there was such a huge difference in the taste.
Xiao Xiaolong and Ouyang Xiaoyi could not help but burst into laughter when they saw Bu Fang's embarrassed expression under Xiao Yanyu's angry gaze.
"Owner Bu, it's rare for my sister to cook. You actually criticized the pastries she prepared with great care. You've completely offended my sister this time," Xiao Xiaolong said with a smile.
The corners of Bu Fang's mouth twitched. This Pineapple Jade Heart Cake was indeed disgusting. Even if it was made by Xiao Yanyu, he was not used to flattering her...
However, the fact that Xiao Yanyu and the other two would come looking for him tonight warmed his originally lonely heart. He felt that he had to do something to express his gratitude.
Cook a dish to express my gratitude?
Bu Fang shook his head and threw this thought out of his mind. Xiao Yanyu and the others often came to his store to eat and were familiar with the dishes here. Therefore, it would seem insincere if he were to cook the store's dishes to express his gratitude.
Today was the eve of the Spring Festival, which had the same meaning as New Year's Eve on Earth. Bu Fang pondered for a moment, then stood up and walked toward the store.
"Wait a moment. Let me cook a delicacy for you." Bu Fang said lightly while walking to the kitchen.
Owner Bu is going to cook? The eyes of Xiao Yanyu and the others lit up.
There was no need to mention Owner Bu's culinary skills. The delicacies he cooked left them with endless aftertastes. Now, he was actually going to personally cook a delicacy … This was the first time something like this had ever happened. They were immediately filled with anticipation.
After they waited for a while, Bu Fang walked out of the kitchen with a big basin in his hands.
The three of them were immediately puzzled. What was Owner Bu planning to do?
Bu Fang did not answer their questions. Instead, he placed the big basin in front of them.
The weight of the big basin was obviously not light. Moreover, it was filled with white glutinous rice flour. The glutinous rice flour was sparkling and translucent, just like crushed crystals.
Bu Fang poured the scalding Spirit Spring Water into the basin and then stirred it with his hands.
"Owner Bu, what are you doing?" Xiao Xiaolong asked as he looked at Bu Fang with a puzzled expression.
Bu Fang indifferently glanced at him and said, "Don't say anything, just watch."
Then, Bu Fang raised his fist. Dense true energy surged out from his lower abdomen and wrapped around his fist like a glove.
Bang! With a loud bang, Bu Fang's fist rapidly smashed into the big basin that was still spinning. Under the precise control of Bu Fang's true energy, the vortex suddenly trembled.
Bu Fang pulled out his fist and smashed his other fist down. A loud bang resounded, as if a mirror had been shattered.
Looking at Bu Fang's violent and ferocious movements, Xiao Yanyu and the others were instantly dumbfounded. Was he cooking a delicacy? Were he really not venting his anger? If those punches were to land on the flesh, wouldn't that be terrible …?
After an unknown number of punches, Bu Fang's movements were no longer as wild and wild as before. Instead, they had a hint of gentleness. Although each punch still produced a thunderous sound, it was still a little shocking.
"This … Oh my god!" Xiao Xiaolong cried out in surprise. He stared at Bu Fang's fist that was covered with true energy. He saw that there were actually white strands of silk stuck to the surface of the true energy.
Bu Fang raised his fist. On his fist, there were densely packed strands of silk. The strands were bright and shiny. They were even finer and smoother than the best silk.
Bang.
After the last punch, Bu Fang no longer moved. He dispersed his true energy and raised his fist. The strands of silk also disappeared. The three of them immediately looked toward the basin curiously. They saw a warm and sparkling glutinous rice lying in the center of the basin. It was emitting hot steam.
Even though there was no fragrance, the three of them could not help but gulp down a mouthful of saliva …
"Smelly boss … Is this the delicacy you made with your fist? Is it edible? "Ouyang Xiaoyi asked.
"Yes, but it tastes even better after being processed." Bu Fang said, "Actually, you can try making it at home as long as you control your true energy well."
"What is the name of this delicacy?" Xiao Yanyu's pleasant voice rang out.
"Thousand Wrapped Silk Rice Cake," Bu Fang said.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife appeared in Bu Fang's hand. With a flourish of the knife, the rice cake was directly cut into four pieces.
After returning to the kitchen, Bu Fang placed the rice cake on a blue-and-white porcelain plate and steamed it in a steamer basket.
"Come in," Bu Fang shouted at the three of them who were still sitting at the entrance.
"Is it done?" The three of them were immediately overjoyed. They walked into the store and immediately saw the Thousand Wrapped Silk Rice Cake placed on the table.
It was ordinary and unremarkable. The three of them did not notice anything different about it.
However, this fragrance … The rich fragrance of glutinous rice was accompanied by a sweet aroma. It wrapped around the tip of their noses like strands of silk.
The sweetness was neither thick nor faint. It just so happened to trigger their appetites. Their saliva unconsciously flowed out of their mouths.
"Give it a try. This rice cake is meant to be eaten on the night before the Spring Festival. It is meant to wish for a bright new year," Bu Fang lightly said.
The ingredients of this Thousand Wrapped Silk Rice Cake were specially purchased from the system. His crystals were deducted. However, Bu Fang did not care.
Since the three of them were willing to come today, the affection they represented was not something that mere crystals could compare to. The only thing he could do was to make a delicacy to express his gratitude.
Xiao Yanyu gently and elegantly picked up the Thousand Wrapped Silk Rice Cake. Her moist and glossy red lips gently parted, revealing her pearly white teeth. She lightly bit down.
Then, Xiao Yanyu's beautiful eyes suddenly widened. Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
So the so-called Thousand Wrapped Silk … was really Thousand Wrapped Silk!
