Chapter 124: The Temptation of Delicious Food

  "Ugh, this week's data is really disappointing! The total increase in data for the whole week isn't even as much as the increase from just two days last week. Especially the collection count, it dropped by over a dozen points, it hurts! Everyone, I think I've worked very hard these past few days, writing at least 6,000 words per day, which is a lot of effort for a new book. Please collect and recommend me!!! Thank you to Kawazeanapollu for the reward!!!"

  ……………………

  "Damn... this little vixen, Xiao Mei, is really ruthless. She grabbed that soft flesh and twisted it firmly, she's gotten quite skilled at teasing over the past few days. Almost forgot that Xiao Mei isn't someone to be trifled with, was deceived by her cute appearance."

  Yes, Xiao Mei is the chairman of a large company and has been fighting in the business world for many years. If she were easy to bully, she would have been eaten up long ago, leaving no bones behind.

  Qin Tian's body had been strengthened, his physical quality far surpassing that of a normal person. He was so skilled in martial arts that he no longer felt pain.

  "Haha, after all, it's been strengthened, and the recovery power is fast. The little demon's products are always of high quality." Qin Tian secretly praised in his heart.

  "Hmph, of course."

  The proud voice of the little demon sounded in Qin Tian's ear, and upon hearing Qin Tian's praise, he proudly lifted his tail, but immediately fell silent. For the past few days, Qin Tian had been staying at Xiao Mei's place, and the little demon hadn't appeared either, it was unclear whether he was shy or jealous.

  "Hehe, this little demon, given a bit of color and it wants to open a dye workshop. Looks like I need to take good care of it, or else its tail will be wagging all the way up to heaven."

  Qin Tian stroked his chin and said with a sly smile, "It seems that the 'collection' he mentioned is not an ordinary collection."

  Hearing Xiao Yao fall silent, Qin Tian shook his head and threw off the image of Xiao Yao's youthful appearance from his mind, carrying the dishes out of the kitchen.

  In a place where Qin Tian couldn't see, Little Yao's face turned red as she pouted and said in an unpleasant tone.

  "Bad master, little monster won't show up, you wouldn't call me otherwise, every day just messing around with that fox spirit called Xiao Mei, and the actions are so reckless, aren't you afraid of corrupting the child?"

  Then the little demon waved its hand, and a segment of video appeared in front of it. If Qin Tian were here, he would definitely find this video very familiar. It was exactly what happened last night between him and Xiao Mei. Who knows how the little demon did it, but it actually played it like a movie.

  "Hmm, so that's what you like, got it. I'll remember this pose too. And this action, I'll remember that as well. I'll do the same next time."

  Originally, the little demon took Qin Tian's pleasant scene as a teaching video to learn from, with a serious expression, just short of holding a pen and a small notebook to take notes, with a few modern students' high school entrance examination posture.

  "Come on, wife is serving dinner~~~"

  Qin Tian brought out dish after dish, and said to Xiao Mei who was washing her face, "Look at that, just like a shopkeeper in ancient times."

  "Ah, here it comes."

  As soon as she heard that dinner was ready, Xiao Mei didn't even wash her face, just wiped it a few times and ran out without drying it. She also didn't change her clothes, which was unusual for someone like Xiao Mei who loved being beautiful and would think wearing the same outfit for two days was more terrifying than doomsday.

  She usually washes and changes her clothes once a day, regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter.

  This time she didn't even change her clothes before running out, it can be seen that in her heart, delicious food is more important than changing clothes, especially the kind of food that Qin Tian makes that you would die to eat.

  "Hey, don't rush to eat, wife. Let me introduce you first."

  Qin Tian sat at the edge of the table, watching Xiao Mei come up and want to pick up her chopsticks. He immediately stopped her, smiling and saying that he had put in so much effort this time, making a whole table of dishes, and he had to show off a bit, otherwise it would be too unfair to himself.

  "Okay, husband, hurry up and say it, I can't wait any longer."

  Xiao Mei's eyes were fixed on the delicious food on the table, her mouth watering uncontrollably. Without even lifting her head, she said that Qin Tian's existence was completely unnecessary.

  "Hmm...hmm."

  Qin Tian saw Xiao Mei's performance and dryly smiled, Xiao Mei was really too much of a blow to his enthusiasm, instantly crushing all his passion, but since they had already started, it wasn't good to give up halfway, so he continued pointing at the dishes, introducing them one by one to Xiao Mei.

  "My wife, this time I made one of the eight major cuisines, Lu cuisine. Lu cuisine is also known as Shandong cuisine. It originated in the Qi and Lu states during the Spring and Autumn period and Warring States period, took shape during the Qin and Han dynasties, and entered the palace in large numbers during the Ming and Qing dynasties, reaching its peak."

  Shandong cuisine attaches great importance to the use of fire, with the saying "firework in Shandong". The knife work is rich and varied, the dishes are majestic and thick, the seasoning is pure and correct, good at using high soup, "no soup no dish", pursuing freshness, crispness and tenderness. It has the style of Confucian culinary aesthetics, "magnificent and upright, not biased".

  Lu cuisine has comprehensive techniques and exquisite production, with many dishes having high difficulty in fire control and knife work, which is a great test of culinary skills.

  This time I made nine-turn large intestine, oil explosion double crisp, pot-roasted pork belly, steamed garoupa fish, clear soup swallow's nest...

  "There are four dishes and one soup, all of which are representative of Shandong cuisine. Alright, that's it, let's dig in."

  Qin Tian found that Xiao Mei hadn't listened at all, and was staring at the dishes with a drooling expression, looking extremely eager. He also couldn't help himself, and gave Xiao Mei an order to take action.

  Xiao Mei had been waiting for this sentence, and as soon as Qin Tian said it, she sprang into action like an athlete hearing the starting gun. She quickly picked up her knife and fork, clinking them together, and then picked up a piece of food and threw it into her mouth. After that, she reached for another piece, as if afraid that if she slowed down, she wouldn't be able to get any more.

  Qin Tian looked at Xiao Mei's extremely un-ladylike appearance and fell into a daze, although he had seen it several times before, but every time he saw it again, he was still stunned. After thinking for a moment, he secretly let out a sly laugh, quietly took out his phone, switched to video mode, and then aimed the camera at Xiao Mei.

  Qin Tian wondered what expression Xiao Mei would have if she saw her like this after dinner, it must be very interesting. Qin Tian expected in his heart and also joined the fight, or else he wouldn't get a bite to eat. In less than a minute, the dishes were already gone.

  If he doesn't make a move soon, Qin Tian's guess is that there will be only a few clean plates left that can reflect human shadows. With Qin Tian's understanding of Xiao Mei, this possibility is very high.

  "Waaah... This is mine, don't snatch it away... That's also mine..."

  Xiao Mei was like a mother hen protecting her chicks, facing Qin Tian's attack, she blocked and parried left and right, resolutely defending the delicious food in front of her. A ordinary meal had unexpectedly turned into a fierce battlefield between the two.

  Four dishes and a soup were completely devoured by two people in just fifteen minutes. The soup was even drunk clean to the last drop, with not even a scallion flower left, and the bowl was licked back and forth several times by Xiao Mei.

  "Wow! I'm so full!"

  Seeing the empty plate, Xiao Mei touched her belly and said with a happy face.

  "Honey, you did a great job this time! By the way, what are these dishes called? I want to have them again next time."

  Xiao Mei only then remembered that she still didn't know the names of these dishes, rubbing her belly which seemed to be several months pregnant, and asked Qin Tian.

  Qin Tian

  "Wife, I've already introduced you to the names of these dishes before we started eating, but at that time your eyes were only on the food and you didn't listen carefully."

  Qin Tian looked at Xiao Mei helplessly and said, "Are you praising me or hitting me? Why do I feel so uncomfortable?"
