The four flavors of sour, spicy, sweet and salty burst out in your mouth almost at the same time. Each taste is so prominent, but the blend of each other makes it appear so harmonious and delicious.
The soft eggplant almost melts in your mouth, and your taste buds revel in the intertwined music of various flavors. Swallow it gently, and the lingering fragrance lingers between your lips and teeth.
"The taste... is simply disgusting! Even if it is real fish, it is far less delicious than this!" Lankester narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the fish-flavored eggplant, and unconsciously stretched out his chopsticks, The expression is tangled and resistant.
"Just one bite? Just one more bite!"
"Mmm...it smells so good!"
"One more bite."
"A little salty?"
"Want a bite of rice? Just one bite!"
"They match each other so well. Let's eat them both."
"This braised pork is also delicious, soft and glutinous, with a hint of sweetness in the sauce aroma."
Harrison's dishes had just been served, and the three large dishes, one vegetarian dish and a large pot of rice in front of Lankester had all reached the bottom.
Lankester touched his belly and felt that it was only three-thirds full.
So he raised his hand again.
"Sir... have you finished eating?" Yabei Mia came over and surprised Lankester with the empty plate in front of him.
Lankester smiled and nodded: "Yes, I want to serve all the dishes just now."
Mia shook her head slightly and said: "The other three dishes are all fine, but each customer can only order one dish from Fo Tiao Qiang. You can change another dish, such as Peking duck or something."
"Okay, then I want that one." Lanke nodded, thought for a while, and then said: "Then I will replace the other three dishes with other dishes..."
During this meal, Lankester finally ordered all the dishes on the menu of Maimi's restaurant and ate them all.
"Uncle, you are so awesome. You have accomplished a feat that I dare not even think of doing." Harrison, who was watching the whole process, gave a thumbs up to Lankester, who was contentedly rubbing his belly.
Lankester smiled, stood up to pay the bill coolly, took the packed fried rice, glanced at Yabei Mia again, turned around and left the restaurant.
"Is this the first guest who has finished our menu?" Barbara asked in surprise.
"Yes, her appetite is amazing. Feeding herself is not an easy task." Angela nodded. If she could eat like this, she would have starved to death in the Devil's Islands.
"This uncle... is quite interesting." Mia said to herself with a smile.
However, the busy work soon made them forget this episode.
…
"By the way, are those girls who stay in the restaurant just so that they can eat the boss's cooking for free every day?" Lankester looked at Elizabeth who was eating fried rice and asked with a smile.
Elizabeth paused while eating, looked at Lankester with a slightly strange expression, thought seriously for a while, and said: "Yes and no, even though the delicious food is the reason why they stayed, it can make them abandon their original feelings." Identity, willingness to stay in the restaurant, and taking on seemingly simple tasks are the atmosphere of the restaurant, the feeling of home.”
"Does it feel like home?" Lankester thought thoughtfully, looking at Elizabeth for a moment of silence, "Have you also worked at Mamie's Restaurant?"
"Cough cough cough..." Elizabeth suddenly choked and then coughed.
Lankester quickly conjured a glass of ice water for him and handed it over.
Elizabeth took a few sips of water to calm down, looked at the ice water in her hand, and said calmly: "If it were Boss Mag, this would be a glass of warm water."
Lankester scratched his head, smiled slightly awkwardly and said, "I learned it."
Elizabeth finished all the fried rice on the plate, put down her spoon, looked at Lankester and asked: "Father, when do you plan to meet Mia?"
Speaking of Mia, Lankester's eyes were filled with smiles, "I just saw her. She looks very well-behaved. She looks a bit like you, but her temper is softer."
"Do you think I have a bad temper?" Elizabeth asked.
"No...no." Lankester's expression froze again, "I mean, the hardships in life did not make her depressed, which makes me very happy."
"So, when are you going to meet her?"
"Just for today, I'll wait for her on her way home from get off work," Lankester said.
"Okay." Elizabeth nodded.
"See you tomorrow." Mag stood at the door, waving to the girls and watching the young and energetic girls go away.
"Do you think Lankester will recognize Mia today?" Irina stood behind Mag with a glass of milk and asked with a smile.
Mag turned around, looked at the milk stains on her lips, smiled and nodded, "I guess so, he is not a patient guy."
"What about you?" Irina licked her lips and showed a somewhat charming smile.
"Me too." Mag closed the door and hugged Irina.
"I'm joking with you, I haven't finished drinking the milk yet." Irina said angrily.
"It's okay, there will be more soon."
…
On the long street, two figures standing against the moonlight made the girls who were about to return to the dormitory look a little wary.
Yabei Mia stopped for a moment, looking at the two figures, her eyes suddenly lit up, but when her eyes fell on the tall figure, she felt a little scared.
"It's Elizabeth?!" Gina said in surprise, releasing her alert state.
"It's really Elizabeth!" Everyone quickly confirmed who the girl next to them was.
But Barbara narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the man standing next to Elizabeth.
A familiar scent. She had seen this man before on the far northern front.
Lankester - the frost dragon that brought great trouble to the coalition forces, was also Elizabeth's father.
Why did he appear in the City of Chaos? Why block their way?
"Everyone... you should go back first. I want to be alone with Elizabeth for a while." Mia said.
Although the girls were a little confused after hearing this, they all greeted Elizabeth and then returned to the dormitory and residence.
There were only three people left on the street.
"Mia!" Elizabeth walked forward quickly, and then hugged Mia into her arms.
On the ice front, when she was on the verge of death, she thought more of Mia, her sister, one of the few people in the world who still cared and loved her.
"Sister." Yabei Mia also hugged her tightly. The thoughts and worries day and night finally came to a perfect ending in this hug. It was naturally the best that her sister was fine.
Then her eyes fell on the tall figure, with tears glistening in her eyes, and she whispered: "Is he...is he?"
