Chapter 11: A small gathering in the group, a terrifying new dish attempt

Near noon.

Su Han arrived in front of Ningguang.

Even though it was time for the appointment.

This woman was still discussing the Starry Project with her secretaries.

"Tell those craftsmen, when the laboratory is being built, if anyone dares to raise the price of raw materials, they won't be coming to the next Chamber of Commerce meeting."

"Yes, my lady."

While speaking, Ningguang's eyes swept over Su Han's figure.

She turned around and smiled: "Why are you here?"

Su Han said speechlessly: "It's almost noon, have you forgotten that Taotao said she was treating us? If we stand her up, I'm afraid she won't be so easy to talk to next time."

Reminded by him.

Ningguang finally reacted.

There was a small gathering in the group today.

She slapped her forehead and smiled bitterly: "I've been too busy..."

There have been too many things these past few days.

Leading to her not sleeping even in the middle of the night.

Su Han looked at the exhausted Baixiao and the others and asked: "Then why don't you choose a few more people to assist you..."

"It's not that simple. In my position, I absolutely cannot have any selfish motives..."

Ningguang walked to the dressing table and began to wash up.

Cultivating qualified secretaries.

Requires not only ability but also a fair heart.

If they were to tip off Liyue's merchants, she would lose all her dignity.

About half an hour later.

Su Han and Ningguang and the others went down from the Jade Chamber.

The group chatted and laughed.

Soon they arrived at Wanmin Restaurant.

At this moment, a figure jumped out from the shadows in front of Su Han, and the other party said angrily: "Why are you only here now, I've been waiting for a long time..."

"Sorry Taotao, I accidentally fell asleep just now. Is today's food ready?"

"Of course. I booked it with Xiangling a long time ago. It's a huge splurge~~~"

Hu Tao put her hands on her hips, her face full of pride.

It's truly not easy to eat Xiangling's cooking.

Only her little friend could find her.

Otherwise, it depends on whether you have the luck.

Because out of ten days, Xiangling isn't home for eight of them.

Moreover, she often goes out, even the kind where she's gone for a month.

Regarding this, Chef Mao has no way to deal with it.

Ningguang's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she smiled: "Then we are truly in for a treat; I remember the last time I ate Xiangling's cooking was two months ago."

She is extremely picky about gourmet food.

Although Chef Mao's cooking is good now.

Compared to his daughter Xiangling, it's still lacking a bit of skill.

A look of anticipation also flashed in Keqing's eyes.

She wondered if she could eat her favorite dish.

When they arrived in the private room.

Zhongli was tasting tea and reading a book.

Su Han sat directly beside him and asked in a low voice: "Is this Maoshan art useful for the Yaksha?"

"It has some effect, but... the results are minimal, at least I've seen some hope."

Zhongli's voice revealed a trace of relief.

If there were a technique more powerful than Maoshan art, perhaps it could suppress the thing inside Xiao.

A moment later, Ningguang and the others arrived.

The two of them also changed the subject.

A stick of incense later.

The first dish appeared.

Boiled fish with shrimp dumplings.

"Wow... the first dish is my favorite..."

Hu Tao looked at the dishes being served and beamed with joy.

This was her absolute favorite.

Xiangling saw she was happy and smiled: "As long as you like it, there are many more dishes coming, including one I made especially for you!"

"Especially?"

Hu Tao's expression suddenly became a bit ominous.

Although she and Xiangling get along very well.

But the other party always comes up with some bizarre dishes for her to try.

Xiangling nodded and said: "Yeah, you haven't forgotten, have you? Don't worry, you'll know in a moment..."

Then the second dish appeared.

When the plate landed on the table, Keqing's eyes brightened a bit; it was actually Golden Shrimp Balls.

Not only that.

The dish was placed right in front of her.

Subsequently, boiled cabbage... sweet tofu... various delicacies appeared one after another.

Without exception.

All the dishes were everyone's favorites.

Ningguang glanced at Su Han nonchalantly.

This table of food, I'm afraid, is not that simple.

Every dish is everyone's favorite.

She doesn't believe this is a coincidence.

If her guess is correct, it should have been arranged by him.

He is quite thoughtful.

Amidst the clinking of glasses.

The atmosphere gradually warmed up.

At this time, Xiangling brought a dish to Hu Tao and said with a smile: "Taotao, look... this is something I prepared especially for you.

Come and try it..."

"!!!"

Hu Tao's expression stiffened immediately, and her smile froze at this moment.

She raised her head and asked tentatively: "Can... can I not eat it?"

Xiangling's face sank immediately, and she said angrily: "Of course not, you said it yourself before. As long as I give you a discount, you'll help me try new products. ===== CHAPTER 30 =====

Otherwise, I wouldn't give you a 30% discount.

I'm selling at a loss!"

"This... alright, I hope it won't be Qingxin-fried Slime..."

Once, in order to prove that Slimes were edible.

Xiangling carried out a series of developments.

The result was that her group of friends suffered greatly, especially the Qingxin-fried Slime, which was a human tragedy.

It made her have diarrhea for three whole days. ===== CHAPTER 31 =====

Looking at Hu Tao's pale face, Xiangling shook her head: "No, no, no... of course it's not Qingxin-fried Slime.

I've completely given up on Slimes.

This time, it's Silk Flower-fried Crystal Butterfly..."

"!!!"

Everyone in the room was shocked.

Crystal Butterfly?

Can this elemental thing really be eaten?

Although Su Han knew Xiangling liked to study cooking while playing the game, he didn't expect her to be this "terrifying".

As the lid opened.

Inside the beautiful Silk Flower lay a layer of golden Crystal Butterflies.

Good heavens.

And it's Geo-elemental too.

Xiangling ignored the expressions of others and said to herself: "Crystal Butterflies are the most common in our Teyvat. If they can be developed.

It would be quite a merit...

Think about it, it's because it's the most common thing that no one eats that it's suitable for development..."

Hu Tao looked at the Crystal Butterfly, her chopsticks reached out tremblingly, then she picked up a tiny bit and gently put it into her mouth.

For the 30% discount.

She went all out.

Hu Tao closed her eyes and chewed vigorously.

As a result, in less than three seconds... she covered her mouth and ran out of the room.

A moment later, Su Han and the others heard the sound of retching coming from outside.

Clearly, Hu Tao had become the poor test subject again.

Xiangling scratched her head in embarrassment: "Is... is it really that bad to eat... let me try..."

She picked up a chopstick full and put it into her mouth.

Her expression froze immediately.

Then she turned and threw it outside.

Faintly, another sound of vomiting was added.

Keqing looked at the beautiful dish and asked in confusion: "Is it really that bad? It looks quite good though."

"Crystal Butterflies are elemental creatures; if it were a Hydro Crystal Butterfly, it would be fine, but as for Geo Crystal Butterflies, they probably only taste like dirt..."

Zhongli spoke eloquently.

He didn't even need to eat it to know what it tasted like.

Silk Flowers are sweet.

Geo Crystal Butterflies are dirt.

It would be strange if you didn't vomit after eating them mixed together.

About five minutes later, Hu Tao returned with a pale face.

Her whole person seemed to have been drained dry.

She slumped on the table and complained: "I should have known better than to save that bit of money, it's simply life-threatening..."

Everyone laughed secretly.

Since you knew, yet you still acted as a lab rat, who else would be unlucky if not you?

"By the way... it's about time for the third mission, right?"

Ningguang looked at Su Han.

The mission refreshes at noon.

Calculating the time, it should have appeared.

Su Han nodded and said: "Hmm, it should be within these few minutes..."

Amidst the laughter.

The notification sound in the group indeed rang.

The third mission was released.

This time, the mission was completely different from the previous ones.

It was a daily-life type.

[Ding... Mission cooldown period detected as over, Heavens Mission released!]

[Mission]: Defeat the Special Grade Chef, Xiao Dangjia!

[Difficulty]: Two stars

[Countdown]: Fifteen minutes...

[Hint]: After becoming a Special Grade Chef, Xiao Dangjia's culinary skills soared, but now that he has returned to Yangquan Restaurant, few people come to challenge his skills...

[Note]: If the mission is not accepted when the countdown reaches zero, it will be considered an automatic abandonment.

Looking at the released mission.

Su Han didn't know what to say; it actually randomized to a cooking mission.

Keqing: "I think we should just invite Xiangling; no one else in the group knows how to cook, right?"

Ganyu: "...I only know how to make Prosperity and Peace."

Ningguang: "I can make Mora Meat, but... the other party holds the title of Special Grade Chef and must be a master specialized in culinary arts."

Hu Tao: "@Su Han, come out and explain. Is that Xiao Dangjia very powerful? Does he have any weaknesses..."

Su Han: "Uh... he is indeed quite powerful, but he's a mama's boy chef."

Ganyu: "Mama's boy? What does that mean? A term I've never heard of."

Hu Tao: "I haven't heard of it either...@_@..."

Su Han: "Simply put, this person became a super chef at a young age and defeated many enemies, but unfortunately...

Most of the enemies he defeated were won by surprise.

Not by defeating the opponent with exquisite taste..."

Recalling the anime he had watched before.

Every time Xiao Dangjia encountered an enemy he couldn't defeat, the first thing he thought of was his mother.

It's as if without Master Abe, he wouldn't know how to cook.

Later, netizens gave him a nickname: Mama's Boy Chef.

He even suspected.

During the Tofu Trio competition, whether that chairman was intentionally suppressing the Dark Cooking Society.

After all, Xiao Dangjia's culinary skills at that time.

Were already his limit.

No matter how fancy it is, Mapo Tofu is still Mapo Tofu.

Ningguang: "Since that's the case, let's invite Xiangling. If she doesn't agree, I have my own ways..."

Having experienced the previous mission.

She had pre-selected countless top talents in Liyue. ===== CHAPTER 32 =====

She had pre-selected countless top-tier talents from Liyue.
