When Chen Ze thought back to the time when he drank Elizabeth, Chen Ze felt a little resistant to drinking. After all, he didn't particularly like drinking, and he hated the feeling of getting drunk even more. Therefore, Chen Ze had been trying his best to control the amount of alcohol he drank.
But Elizabeth's wine was very unreasonable. He passed out after one glass, and Chen Ze didn't even have a chance to resist. Moreover, the wine wasn't as spicy as white wine, and it made people feel like it wasn't as strong as it was, which made people even more defenseless.
"Uhh … Lavra, welcome back. What's this in front of you?" Chen Ze put the pot on the floor, clapped his hands, and looked at Lavra worriedly.
"Dear ~ This is the wine I mixed with … Ah no, this is the wine I mixed myself. I named it Flaming Red Lips." Lavra was quite proud, her face was full of pride, almost writing the words' praise me 'on her face.
However, Chen Ze really wanted to complain. Flaming Lips wasn't a bad name, but Chen Ze had read a Chinese manga called I Am MT before, so he misunderstood the name. He thought it was something like Chain Lightning.
"Do you want to try it, my dear?" Lavra came over and handed the Flaming Lips to Chen Ze proudly. Chen Ze took it helplessly, and looked at the cold Flaming Lips in his hand.
It was very cold, and it suited Chen Ze's taste. He preferred iced water, although Chen Ze knew that iced water wasn't as good as hot water.
"Alright, I'll try it." Chen Ze nodded his head and drank the cup of Flaming Red Lips with the determination to succeed or die trying.
The first taste was similar to red wine, but it was sweeter and had a light fruity aroma. Just like Elizabeth, Chen Ze didn't feel like he was drunk, which gave Chen Ze a headache. He was prepared to wake up the next day.
"How's the taste?" Chen Ze opened his eyes and saw Lavra's face. She was very close to him, so close that Chen Ze could see Lavra's eyelashes.
Chen Ze didn't know how to react. His biggest impression was that Lavra's skin was really good. Chen Ze didn't see anything wrong with Lavra's face, nor did she have any pimples. Her skin was so smooth that it would make many girls jealous.
"You … What are you looking at …" Lavra's face was getting redder and redder. Her face was as red as a tomato. Chen Ze felt that he must have gone crazy from being a chef. Why was his first reaction when he saw the ingredients?
"I'm looking at you." Chen Ze looked at Lavra and answered seriously. Anyway, it was the truth. He was looking at Lavra.
"I'm looking at my girlfriend." Chen Ze added. If he wasn't sure about the relationship between the two parties, he might be mistaken as a hooligan, which wouldn't be good.
"… Hmph!" Lavra's face was so red that it made people wonder if she would explode. She snorted and stepped on Chen Ze's foot. Then, she ran up to the second floor without looking back, leaving Chen Ze alone to rub his foot in pain.
"Mr. Manager, I didn't know that you had become a master flirt." Betty looked like she was looking at God, which made Chen Ze a little speechless.
However, Chen Ze had to admit that he was getting used to Lavra stepping on his foot. Chen Ze shook his head fiercely. This idea was too gentlemanly, and he had to forget it quickly.
Chen Ze shook his head. He still didn't show any signs of dizziness or drunkenness. It seemed that Lavra had made a good drink this time. It tasted great, and it wouldn't get to his head.
"Hurry up and clean up. I think the guests will come soon," Chen Ze urged Betty and poured the nutrient soil into the big flowerpot.
The nutrient soil was still a little heavy. If it was the old Chen Ze, although he could carry it in, he would have to take a few deep breaths. However, after being a chef for a long time, Chen Ze felt that his physical fitness had improved. He didn't know if it was because he cooked every day.
Chen Ze carefully took out the Peach of Immortality seed and buried it in the soil. Then, he watered and fertilized the Peach of Immortality seed every day. He just had to wait for the Peach of Immortality to mature and bear fruit.
However, Chen Ze suddenly realized that he seemed to have missed something.
"… Holy crap, I just remembered that this peach tree only matures once every six thousand years. How long will it take for it to grow into a big tree? Furthermore, a day in heaven is equivalent to a year in hell. I should be considered hell, right? Then, six thousand years means … "Chen Ze felt a little dizzy. He didn't know if this Immortal Peach Tree would be left for him or his great-great-great-great-grandson.
"Sigh, forget it. I'll just treat it as a self-cultivation." Chen Ze shook his head. Even if he had the 4x speed stone slab that Hastur had given him, if he left it there every day, it would probably turn his great-great-great-great-grandson into a great-great-great-grandson. There was not much of a difference.
"Manager, why do I feel like you're in a bad mood all of a sudden?" Betty looked at Chen Ze strangely. He was smiling happily just a moment ago. Why did he suddenly look so gloomy?
Tsk, tsk. Men change their faces faster than flipping a book.
"It's nothing. I just feel like I might have made a long-term investment. I don't know when I'll get my money back." Chen Ze sighed. Then, he returned to the kitchen. He wanted to cook something to adjust his mood. Who knew if he would be in a good mood later?
Chen Ze stood in the kitchen. When he was cooking the Red Wine Beef Stew, Chen Ze had used almost half a bottle of red wine. There was still some left. Although he had the storage stone that could prevent the ingredients from expiring, Chen Ze felt that something would be wrong if he did not dispose of the red wine.
"Your smile is fluttering in the wind ~ It smells like rosemary ~" Suddenly, Chen Ze's phone rang. Chen Ze was stunned. Then, he picked up the phone and looked at it. It was his sister.
"What's wrong?" Chen Ze curiously picked up the phone and asked.
"Brother, mom said that she sent you something. However, you didn't pick up when she called you just now. So, she asked me to let you know." Chen Xingchen's voice came from the other side.
"Yeah, I'll transfer you some money later. You're in your third year of high school. Be more serious in your studies." Chen Ze smiled and nodded. Then, he chatted with his sister for a while and hung up the phone.
"What did mom send me this time …" Chen Ze was a little confused. Was this motherly love coming again?
