The golden eggs are perfectly wrapped around the rice, with distinct grains. The red beef cubes are dotted with an attractive oily sheen. The green chopped green onions are the finishing touch, adding a lot of color to this fried rice.
The fragrant aroma comes to your nose, the aroma of stir-fried beef and eggs are intertwined, harmonious and beautiful.
"Gululu..."
I wanted to regroup my emotions and say something cruel, but my stomach growled unsatisfactorily.
Norma's expression fell, she had already picked up the spoon with her hand, and then quickly scooped a spoonful of fried rice into her mouth.
The soft rice is wrapped in eggs. When you bite into it, the aroma of eggs is overflowing, and a piece of beef is mixed in with a slightly chewy texture, which brings an unparalleled delicious experience among the splashes of meat juice.
The feeling of being filled made Norma's eyes light up instantly.
Norma had eaten countless delicacies, and McCarthy Manor had the best chef in the underground city, but the beef and egg fried rice in front of her gave her a sense of surprise.
One bite after another, the plate of fried rice was gone in a blink of an eye. Norma licked the corner of her mouth, feeling a little unfinished.
Then she took a few sips of the soup with a spoon. The tomato and egg soup tasted sour, sweet and refreshing, and it was perfect with fried rice.
After a while, the soup bowl and plate reached the bottom, and Norma put down the spoon in her hand.
This lunch was very simple, she had never had such a simple lunch before.
But it made her very satisfied with the food, which was both physical and psychological satisfaction.
Norma raised her eyes and looked at Mag, who was eating quietly. He did not show any expression of expectation for praise, but instead seemed a bit dissatisfied.
"The heat of the beef is a bit lacking and needs to be adjusted." Mag muttered to himself, feeling a little unsatisfied.
Inexplicably, Norma felt that the man in front of her seemed to be radiating light. Unlike those ordinary men, although he was not a son of a powerful man, his attitude towards cooking was very respectable.
"I said, tonight you want to..." Before Norma could finish her words, the doorbell rang.
Mag stood up and opened the door. Nancy stood at the door. Although her expression was cold, her eyes were a little concerned, "I heard from Bosang that that girl Norma came to see you. Didn't she embarrass you?"
"She's in my room." Mag shrugged.
"What?" Nancy was stunned for a moment, then showed a bit of shock, "You...you..."
Only a short time later, Mag actually brought Norma back to the room.
"I'm just here to eat, don't think too much about it!" Norma seemed to hear the complicated emotions in Nancy's tone, and immediately jumped to the door, then looked at Nancy and said with a bit of teasing: "Nancy, on the other hand, Sister, you do care about him very much. Are you afraid that I would eat him when you came here in such a hurry?"
"Eating?" Nancy glanced at Norma, who was still neatly dressed, and then saw the plates on the dining table in the room from the gap between the two of them. It seemed that they had indeed eaten together, and it was made by Mag. meal.
"That's it for today. I'm going back first. Don't forget our agreement." Norma winked at Mag, then squeezed past Nancy with a smile, humming a tune briskly. leave.
Mag finally figured out that this girl didn't have any ill intentions towards him, she just simply wanted to suppress Nancy.
"Want to come in and sit for a while?" Mag asked looking at Nancy.
Nancy thought for a moment, then nodded and followed Mag into the room.
Norma can get in, why can't Nancy?
This is also the first time she has entered the employee dormitory. In order to avoid suspicion, she has always kept a certain distance from employees of the opposite sex, including Bosang.
Mag cleared the plates on the table, poured Nancy a glass of water, and asked, "Have you had lunch?"
"not yet."
"Can I make something simple for you?"
Nancy wanted to refuse because there would be a family dinner later, but after looking at Norma's clean plate and wondering what they had eaten before, she nodded.
Mag made a new beef and egg fried rice for Nancy. Summarizing her experience, she improved her control over the heat of stir-fried beef.
Nancy sat on the sofa and watched Mag cook. This feeling was a bit special. In a small room, a man in regular clothes and an apron cooked for you, just like... the kind of family in a movie.
In her world, this kind of scene has never happened.
She never imagined that a man would cook lunch for her in their home.
At this moment, she felt quite beautiful.
Then she couldn't help but smile, because of her strange thoughts, but looking at Mag's serious profile, she felt a little dazed.
"Beef and egg fried rice, there are not many ingredients in the refrigerator, but the quality is pretty good." Mag placed the fried rice in front of Nancy and said with a smile.
"Thank you." Nancy nodded slightly, put away the strange look in her eyes, picked up the spoon, and finished a whole portion of beef fried rice gracefully.
No wonder Norma, who has always been picky, would eat in Mag's small room.
This beef and egg fried rice is so delicious!
The heat of the hot beef is controlled just right. The beef is chewy but not difficult to chew. The tender texture requires very high control of the heat.
After finishing the fried rice, Nancy stood up to say goodbye and left. Before leaving, she also told Mag to be more careful with Norma.
Mag smiled and said yes, and after closing the door, she agreed to Norma's friend request.
Looking at the profile picture of the girl who sent him a series of emoticons, Mag's mouth curled up slightly. It was obvious that the fish had taken the bait.
Mag forwarded the screenshot of the chat with Norma to Xi, and briefly reported the information that he had successfully hooked up with Norma.
…
"It only took half a day to hook up with Norma. Is this guy really that charming?" Xi looked at the pictures sent by Mag and fell into thinking.
But this is indeed a good progress for the mission.
Norma is the daughter of Gardner, a core member of the McCarthy family who is responsible for external affairs and is most likely related to the disappearance of Representative Tam.
If Mag planned to use Norma as a breakthrough, it would indeed be a good choice.
"What are you going to do next?" Xi replied to the message.
"If your intelligence is correct and Norma is indeed very favored by Gardner, then I will try my best to get information about Representative Tam from her."
"Be careful." Xi replied and closed the chat interface.
…
Mag stood at the dormitory window and looked at the manor. The angle of the window could only see a small area, which did not include the living area and activity area of the McCarthy family members.
In fact, he already has all the information needed for this mission in his hands. Now he only needs a scenario where he can reasonably obtain this information, and then he can leave.
McCarthy Manor was guarded by three extraordinary men, and he had no reason to risk his life for a novice mission.
In the afternoon, Mag took a nap, then went downstairs to have a brief exchange with the head chef in the common area downstairs of the dormitory, and also visited the kitchen.
Starting tomorrow, he will officially join the kitchen of this huge manor and take on some of the cooking work.
Coming out of the kitchen, which was far larger than a five-star hotel, Mag received news from Norma:
"I want to eat the food you cooked tonight. Come to my villa now."
"Shall I feed it to you?" Mag replied.
"I don't want to eat noodles, I want to eat lamb chops, charcoal grilled lamb chops!" Norma directly sent a voice message.
The girl couldn't taste the noodles he made. It was her loss. Mag sent another message: "Employees are not allowed to enter the core area. I can't come."
"I've sent someone to pick you up."
As soon as Mag saw the news, an unmanned car had parked beside him, the door opened automatically, and an electronic voice came from the car: "Hades, your identity has been confirmed, please get in the car and go to Miss Norma's residence."
"If someone finds out about this, wouldn't it be against the rules?" Mag didn't rush to get in the car, but sent a message to Norma.
"It's your job to cook for your employer. From now on, you will be my full-time chef. I said, as long as you perform well, my sister will give you a salary increase."
Mag got in the car and didn't reply to Norma's message.
If the chef's dormitory is already a luxurious residence for migrant workers, then Norma's villa covering an area of more than 1,000 square meters should be called the Pink Castle.
Even if technology has developed to this extent, girls still seem to be unable to change their passion for pink.
Of course, this kind of pink is quite high-end. The glass curtain wall is crystal pink, like pink diamonds, soft and dazzling, and the various colors complement each other and do not completely fill the entire castle with pink. It is very girly and very attractive.
Needless to say, this must be the work of a top designer.
Mag got off the unmanned vehicle and was ushered into the villa by a sweet-looking little maid. Mag looked at the little maid's pink cat ears, and she was obviously an orc girl.
"You don't seem to be very happy when I ask you to come?" A large chair was placed in the hall with the floor raised. Norma crossed her legs and looked at Mag condescendingly.
Norma, who was sitting in a high position like a queen, wanted to laugh a little. Most people would not be able to do such a thing without suffering from secondary school problems for more than ten years.
"Is cooking for you considered a reward?" Mag asked.
"That's natural. How many chefs want to cook for me, but none of them have such an opportunity. This is your honor." Norma raised her chin slightly.
"Unfortunately, all the people who wanted to eat the food I cooked are gone. Besides, it's not working time now." Mag said calmly.
Norma's eyes narrowed slightly. Mag's words were true. With his popularity in the past few days, it was not an exaggeration to say that he was the hottest man in the underground city at the moment.
"You're already here, why don't you leave without doing something?" Norma came down from the high platform and walked to Mag.
The high platform slowly descended behind her until it was level with the ground, and the huge chair unfolded into a sofa.
It turns out that this problem doesn't happen in front of anyone, hehe, you're a fake woman.
"I charge a fee, which is very expensive." Mag looked at Norma and spoke in a low voice.
The little maid on the side opened her mouth slightly and looked at Mag in shock. Although she was also a huge fan of this handsome guy, her daring to talk to Miss Norma like this still made her worried about his life.
"Expensive? Haha, the most important thing for this lady is money." Norma raised her hand, and a transfer interface lit up on the bracelet, "How much do you fill in?"
"One meal, one million." Mag said.
Norma clicked her fingers twice, and one million was transferred.
Mag's bracelet flashed and one million was received.
A real rich woman is so arrogant.
"Where is the kitchen?" Mag asked directly after receiving money to do the work.
"I...I'll take you there..." the cat-eared maid whispered, the look of shock on her face not fading yet.
The man in front of me actually got one million from Miss Norma. He was so brave.
Mag followed the little maid into the kitchen in the basement.
Compared to Magna's shabby worktop, the kitchen in Norma Villa is luxurious, covering an area of more than 100 square meters. It is equipped with all kinds of kitchen utensils and tableware. There are also two oversized freezers in the corner, which are full of food. All kinds of food.
There is a charcoal grill on the operating table, and the charcoal fire has been lit. There is a large piece of lamb chop on the side table. It has obviously been freshly processed. The sheep blood has not yet solidified and is full of freshness.
If Norma wants to eat charcoal-grilled lamb chops, Mag will cook them for her.
As the saying goes, if you want to conquer a woman, start by conquering her stomach. Anyone who can reach the stomach in one step will basically be unable to escape.
The little maid stood aside, looking at Mag with admiration, "Can I help you?"
"No, thank you." Mag refused coldly, washed her hands, put on an apron, and began to handle the ingredients.
Norma walked around outside twice, but couldn't help but come in. She called her overseer and asked the maid to bring her a comfortable chair.
"So this is what it feels like to be a judge in the King of Chef Competition." Norma said as she sat comfortably on the sofa and watched Mag put the lamb chops on the grill.
Mag raised his eyebrows, good guy, why don't you play a live game here?
Mag is also very good at making charcoal-grilled lamb chops. He roasts them slowly over charcoal fire and brushes them with sauce, and the aroma gradually becomes stronger.
The master and servant looked on, swallowing their saliva countless times.
"Water." Norma turned her head and ordered, but her eyes couldn't move away from the golden lamb chops on the grill.
This fragrance is so rich, so alluring, and has an irresistible penetrating power.
And watching the lamb chops slowly turning golden brown over the charcoal fire, listening to the sizzling sound of oil, and smelling the aroma, I felt like the greedy baby in my stomach was aroused.
The little maid hurriedly went to pour a glass of water, looking at Mag with more and more admiration.
As soon as the heat was in place, Mag put the lamb chops on the stove and put them on the plate. The lamb chops were cut crosswise along the gaps of the lamb chops, making them slightly smaller, more suitable for girls to eat elegantly.
Finally, sprinkle with a handful of green scallions to garnish, and the charcoal-grilled lamb chops are complete.
A whole piece of lamb chop filled a big plate.
"It's done, please use it slowly." Mag looked at Norma and said.
Norma had already stood up from the chair and walked to the operating table. Looking at the roasted golden lamb chops exuding the fragrant meat aroma, her throat couldn't help but roll again.
"I'll bring you the table." The little maid came forward and whispered.
"I'll try it first to see if it's really that delicious." Norma couldn't wait to get started and grabbed a piece of lamb chop.
"Hiss! It's hot!" Norma suddenly retracted her hand, and then pinched the little maid's cat ears to cool down.
The little maid looked innocent, but she didn't dare to say anything.
After cooling her fingers, Norma put on a thin temperature-insulating glove, grabbed another mutton chop, brought it to her mouth, blew the hot air on it, and then carefully opened her mouth and took a bite of the mutton chop.
The crispy and fragrant skin is wrapped in the tender and juicy mutton. With just one bite, the plump juice and oil explode in the mouth. The slightly spicy meat aroma collides on the tip of the tongue, and the taste buds instantly lose control.
"Ah~~"
A long and uncontrollable moan made Norma's face turn red with embarrassment.
But……
This lamb chop is so delicious!
Barbecuing is no stranger to Norma. There are two chefs in the manor who are very good at barbecuing. Every dinner table is indispensable for them to grill various meat products.
But she had never had a lamb chop so delicious and special.
She had seen Nancy lose her temper on the show before and mocked her for not seeing the world. Unexpectedly, she tasted the mutton chops today and she didn't look very promising.
The unique aroma of charcoal grilling penetrates into the lamb, and the unique sauce is irresistible.
If she were a judge in the King of Kitchen Competition, she wouldn't be able to help but give full marks, right?
"This is so delicious!"
Norma couldn't help but admire, and then glanced at Mag. No wonder Nancy was so optimistic about him, and even dispatched fighter planes to protect his safety.
The little maid couldn't help but swallow again. She secretly swallowed so many times before watching the live broadcast with the young lady. Today, she watched Mag roasting lamb chops and smelled the fragrance. How could she resist this kind of thing? lure.
"Here, you can have a piece too." Norma took a lamb chop from the plate, shook it a little to cool down, and handed it to the little maid.
"Thank you, miss." The little maid took the mutton chops flattered, took two steps back, blew on it, and then took a small bite. Her eyes suddenly narrowed into crescents, and she held it and ate it in small mouths, like a little squirrel. .
Mag looked at this scene and realized that Norma was pretty good to her subordinates and did not treat them badly at all.
Norma finished eating two lamb chops and felt full. Then she felt a little uncomfortable eating while standing in the kitchen and ordered: "Go to the restaurant to eat."
The little maid quickly wiped her hands clean, carefully carried the mutton chops with both hands, and left the kitchen, heading straight to the restaurant on the first floor.
Mag took off his apron and went upstairs to go back. He had finished his work, and it seemed that Norma was very satisfied.
As soon as the three of them arrived on the first floor, a maid walked over quickly and said respectfully: "Miss, the master is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the villa was opened, and a thin middle-aged man walked in.
Mag looked at the person and raised his eyebrows slightly. He quickly regained his composure, but was not in a hurry to leave. He took half a step back and stood next to the little maid.
"Father!" Norma exclaimed with some surprise. She jumped forward and took the middle-aged man's arm. "When did you come back? Didn't you say you won't be back until next week?"
"Something happened here in Tucker City, so I came back early." The middle-aged man with a cold temperament had a smile on his face when he looked at Norma, and his eyebrows were full of doting, "I went to see her. Patriarch, let’s take a look at my precious daughter first.”
As he spoke, his eyes passed over the little maid and fell on Mag. His narrow eyes suddenly narrowed, flashing with a dangerous light.
"You came at the right time. We just grilled the charcoal-grilled lamb chops. Let's eat together." Norma pulled Gardner towards the dining table.
Gardner sat down, glanced at the charcoal-grilled lamb chops on the table, looked at Mag again, and asked, "Are you Hades?"
"Yes." Mag nodded slightly.
The person in front of him was Gardner, the target of his trip. Unexpectedly, he met him on the first day after entering McCarthy Manor.
"Father, do you know him too?" Norma said in surprise, holding a piece of mutton chop in her hand.
"How many people in the underground city don't recognize him now?" Gardner said with a smile. The Dixon family suffered a big loss this time. Fergus was killed, and they also lost a strong man who was half a step beyond the transcendent realm. , the person in front of me can be said to be the trigger of the entire incident.
It seems that Nancy brought him back to McCarthy Manor. In addition to appreciating his cooking skills, she probably also wanted to protect him.
Mag lowered his head and let the system take a few photos.
Gardner is not very interested in Mag. The fact that he can enter the McCarthy Manor shows that the family has conducted an in-depth investigation on him and there should be no problem with his background.
He could only think of the Fergus incident as an accident. He was just a chef, which was not enough to interest him.
"Then try this lamb chop. It's delicious." Norma took a piece of lamb chop and handed it to Gardner.
Gardner took the lamb chops, which were still a little hot. It must have been roasted not long ago, and the meat was quite fragrant. He opened his mouth and took a bite, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
As one of the top few people in the underground city's power class, his desire for food has long since become dull, but the taste of this roasted lamb chop made him a little surprised.
The tender and tender lamb has not become dry during the charcoal grilling. The slightly charred skin is full of crispy flavor. When you chew it, the juices fly in your mouth, which is very satisfying.
After only a few mouthfuls, half of the mutton chop was eaten.
"Bring the wine." Gardner ordered the maid aside.
"Yes." The maid left quickly and quickly pushed a cart over. She opened the bottle, poured the wine, sobered it up, and divided the wine all at once. A glass of red wine was already placed in front of Gardner.
Gardner took a sip of wine, then picked up a mutton chop and chewed it carefully, with a look of pleasure on his face.
The satisfaction with food has not appeared in him for a long time. This grilled lamb chop is indeed unique.
"Your cooking skills are good." Gardner put down the mutton bones in his hand and looked at Mag.
Your daughter is not bad either. Mag said without being humble or arrogant: "Thank you."
The maids on the side looked at Mag with surprise and envy. The third master had never praised his servant even a word, but he showed great appreciation for Hades.
"You go back first, I'll let the car take you back to the dormitory." Norma and Mag said, winking at the little maid beside them.
"Okay." Mag nodded slightly.
"Please follow me." The little maid led Mag out. The unmanned car from before was still parked at the door, and the door had been opened.
Mag got in the car.
The little maid blushed and said, "Mr. Hades, I am your fan. The charcoal grilled lamb chops you make are really delicious. I like them very much."
A gentle smile appeared on Mag's face, and she nodded slightly: "Thank you, please come back."
The car door slowly closed, the driverless car started slowly, and drove away from the villa area.
"His smile is so gentle. Oh no, it makes my heart beat!" The little maid covered her heart, her face red all the way to her ears.
