Food saved the world.
With just one look, all of Lorna's attention was drawn to it.
The lamb chop that had just been taken out of the oven was still warm.
The high temperature that seemed to have not dissipated yet made the crackling sound of popping oil on its crispy surface.
The lamb fat wrapped in sauce slowly slid down and dripped onto the grill, making a seductive sizzling sound.
Lorna: "…"
Be reasonable.
She suspected that in order to eat the food that Issou made himself,
She would give her life to him.
"Hungry?" Issou looked up at Lorna, who was at the kitchen door.
He said, "It'll be ready soon."
"Do you need help?" Lorna's gaze moved away from the grilled lamb chop.
She fell into Issou's hand.
Looking at her obviously slender wrist holding such a heavy tray, he couldn't help but wonder.
She felt like her wrist would be crushed by gravity in the next second.
Seeing Issou looking at her, Lorna said, "You know, I'm a mutant.
I'm a mutant. "
As soon as she finished speaking,
A ball of green energy floated in her hand. The next second, Issou felt his hand lighten, and the tray containing the lamb chop was lifted up by an invisible force.
It floated in the air and landed steadily on the dining table outside.
"Wow." Issou took off the thermal gloves on his hands.
He asked with a smile, "So Lorna, can you control several trays at the same time?"
"Several trays?" Lorna glanced at Issou and asked word by word, "Are you kidding me?"
She controlled the energy to open the cupboard.
Two sets of knives and forks floated to the dining table automatically.
She continued,
"Issou, do you have some misunderstanding about my superpower?"
Seeing Lorna's expression, Issou couldn't help but laugh. "Well, I just think that if the waitress I hired had your ability, we would be able to serve the food much faster."
"Serve the dishes?!" Issou's words made Lorna reveal a rare expression of disbelief. She looked at her and said, "After seeing my superpower, the first thing you thought of was to use my superpower to serve the dishes?!"
Issou put his hands on Lorna's back and pushed her out of the kitchen, saying, "What can I do? I'm the one who's going to open a Chinese restaurant."
So, she couldn't be blamed for thinking of how to make use of Lorna's superpower the moment she saw it.
"What's more, I'm not a mutant," Issou shrugged innocently at Lorna. "Being normal limits my imagination."
Lorna was about to speak when Issou placed a piece of lamb chop in front of her. Lorna was speechless.
Did she think that by doing this, she would forgive her?
…
…
…
Alright.
She would.
Lorna, who bowed her head to the food industry, glanced at Issou and took the fork from her. Looking at the delicious lamb chop, she couldn't help but put it into her mouth.
The moment the lamb chop entered her mouth, her first reaction was that it was hot, but when she bit into it, it was crispy. It was so crispy that she could almost hear the crunching sound of the golden brown surface breaking.
Then, it was tender. The tender and succulent lamb had absorbed Issou's special seasoning and diluted the rank odor of the lamb. Combined with the spiciness of the cumin, when she chewed, her mouth was filled with the perfect combination of savory, spicy, and crispy.
Lorna was speechless.
What the hell!
How could Issou's food be so delicious!?
…
The amount of lamb chop on the tray was obviously not small, but Issou and Lorna were able to finish it all together.
After enjoying the delicious meal, Lorna looked much gentler. She looked at Issou who was sitting opposite her and said, "Although you're not a mutated human, Issou, you do have some amazing magical powers."
Issou smiled and pointed at the tray in front of them. "Like this?"
"Yes, but not just this," Lorna leaned back in her chair and raised an eyebrow at Issou. "And your smile."

The next day.
After Lorna had breakfast at Issou's place, she planned to leave. But before she left, she seemed to be worried and asked, "Are you sure you're okay? Issou. "
"Of course." Issou smiled warmly because of Lorna's concern. But she had to admit that she was fine now.
She admitted that what had happened yesterday was indeed very scary, but before something even scarier happened, wasn't she saved?
Therefore, the delicious lamb chop and Lorna's concern were enough to make Issou forget about what happened yesterday.
Issou said to Lorna, "Even if you don't believe what I say, you should at least believe what you see with your own eyes, right?"
Upon hearing this, Lorna glanced at Yi Su. The black-haired girl, who had slept until dawn last night, looked full of energy. The smile on her face was so bright that it seemed to be able to blow away the clouds in one's heart with just a glance.
Okay.
Issou did look good like this.
Lorna was about to speak when Issou suddenly winked at her. She said, "Besides, Lorna, are you sure that if you continue to stay with me, Marcus won't come and cause trouble for me?"
Lorna was worried that she would not dare to stay at home alone after what happened yesterday, so she stayed with her for the night, and then …
She had a full meal last night, but she was forced to watch Lorna and Marcus being lovey-dovey. Issou was speechless.
Lorna was not embarrassed by Issou's teasing. Instead, she seriously suggested, "Maybe you can ask me for help."
