Wu Zixuan carefully picked up the Hokkaido Ackishore Oyster with her chopsticks, which was decorated with green onions. She dipped it in the vinegar soy sauce and couldn't wait to send it into her mouth.
The soft meat melted on the tip of her tongue, and the rich sauce taste combined with the unique fresh fragrance tickled her taste buds to the extreme, so much so that she couldn't bear to swallow it.
"It's so delicious!" She exclaimed in her heart.
He had originally harbored some resentment towards Chen Ping 'an, but now, it was completely diluted by the delicious food. The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously, and his eyes turned into crescents.
"It looks good." Chen Ping 'an admired Wu Zixuan's table manners.
The cute girl looked so good even when she was eating…
He retracted his gaze and sniffed the faint fragrance. He could not help but look at the delicious food in front of him.
The moment the oyster melted in his mouth, he even felt a sense of pleasure.
Satisfied!
At this moment, the system notification sounded in his mind again.
"Gourmet proficiency 1"
"Gourmet proficiency 1"
"Gourmet proficiency?" Chen Ping 'an was a little surprised.
Previously, the system had given him the Cooking Proficiency skill, allowing him to reach the Master Level in cooking.
The Gourmet Proficiency was obviously higher than the Cooking Proficiency.
This was because a gourmet needed to have a deep understanding of cooking, as well as an appreciation of beauty, taste, and art.
After all, to evaluate a dish, one had to appreciate its color, aroma, and other aspects. At the same time, it was also important to understand the ingredients, the history of the dish, and other aspects.
As Chen Ping 'an's proficiency increased, the ingredients used for Hokkaido's thick shore oyster, the amount of seasoning used, the production process, and the details naturally appeared in his mind...
During the tasting process, he completely grasped the essence of this dish.
At the same time, he also identified that the chef had added a few more grains of salt when mixing the sauce, which affected the taste to a certain extent. Otherwise, it would be perfect.
"This 6000 yuan was well spent.”Chen Ping 'an was delighted.
He suddenly thought of his father, who owned a restaurant in Chengdu. Ever since the incident at the fireworks factory, he had been running the restaurant. His business was not very good. Now that he had the system and the culinary skills, he might be able to help his family turn around the restaurant's business. This way, he could pay off the debts he owed earlier...
As Chen Ping 'an was deep in thought, the second dish was served.
Boiled abalone with abalone gall sauce.
The ingredients of this dish were relatively low-key, but the chef handled it very well. The sides of the abalone had been grilled, so it had a crispy texture. Coupled with the abalone gall sauce, the taste of the abalone itself was just right.
Chen Ping 'an silently gave her ten points in his heart.
Then, the dishes were served one after another.
Pine-leaf crab with sauce vinegar perilla flower, tuna belly, green pomelo lobster sashimi, vinegar mackerel seaweed roll.
After that, there were two types of grilled food: charcoal grilled ginger with mountain pepper leaves, crispy eel white roast with sturgeon roe sauce.
Chen Ping 'an's Gourmet Proficiency increased with every dish he ate. At the same time, he also mastered the perfect cooking method of these dishes and memorized them by heart.
He felt that he was not eating delicious food, but was secretly learning from others.
Secretly pleased.
Looking at Wu Zixuan and Wang Kexin, the two girls were eating happily. Wu Zixuan had to take photos of every dish served. In her words, it was her first time eating such an expensive dish, so she had to take photos as a memento. In addition, she might not be able to afford it for a long time in the future. She had to keep some photos to 'quench her thirst by looking at plums.'
He sounded so pitiful.
But thinking about it, it was so cute…
She secretly took photos of Chen Ping 'an and thought to herself," It was this man who made me spend 6000 yuan on a meal…
Seeing Wu Zixuan eating so happily, Chen Ping 'an felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
Well,
Tasting delicious food alone was a source of happiness.
The two of them were twice as happy.
Three people, of course, three times the happiness…
Why did it feel a little dirty?
Chen Ping 'an quickly put away his bad thoughts. If someone found out, he would never be able to take off the label of a scumbag.
At the same time, the comments exploded.
"Ahhhh! I want to eat it too!"
" I feel like this isn't a love variety show, but a food show…"
"Xuanxuan is eating so happily."
"It's just so expensive…Xuanxuan has spent a lot of money this time.”
"When Xuanxuan pays the bill later, I'm sorry that you don't have enough balance…I really want to see Xuanxuan embarrassed.”
"Head Chef: If you can't afford it, stay and wash the dishes! Xuanxuan: Three meals? The head chef was speechless."
"Hahahaha, are you a drama queen?”
……
After finishing the crispy eel white roast with sturgeon roe sauce, it was time to taste the sushi.
Sushi was a delicacy that Japanese food couldn't avoid, and it was also the most exciting food.
The head chef skillfully wrapped the pieces of the dish. He stood opposite the counter, and the customers could see the entire process.
Soon, the head chef pushed the first dish of Sushi to the three of them. It was Ink Fish Sushi.
The white Ink Fish had some sticky teeth and had a certain degree of toughness and elasticity. The more he chewed, the sweeter it became when he mixed it with the vinegar rice.
The second string of tuna sashimi. The ruby red color was appetizing.
Then, there was tuna mid-belly, tuna big belly, spring bream, horse mackerel, kombu peony shrimp with sturgeon roe sauce, Hokkaido purple sea urchin, Toyama Bay white shrimp sea urchin, and boiled cave.
A total of ten.
One of the dishes worth mentioning was the Haruko Sushi. Haruko was the young fish of the sea bream, and it tasted tender. The head chef carefully sprinkled green pomelo skin on it, giving it a unique astringent fragrance.
Hokkaido Purple Sea Urchin Sushi was a top-notch ingredient. When placed in his mouth, the fresh and sweet moisture of the purple sea urchin instantly exploded in his mouth. It was cold and silky, and occasionally had the chewiness of vinegar rice. To be honest, Chen Ping 'an was stunned.
Wu Zixuan, who liked sweet food, had a special liking for the Fushiyama Bay white shrimp and sea urchin. The white prawns, which were known as the gems of Toyama Bay, had a dense texture and a rich sweetness. It was in line with all her imaginations of delicacies.
Wu Zixuan was immersed in her taste buds 'enjoyment. There were two voices conversing in his heart.
A voice said," I still want to eat."
Another voice said," Dream on, pauper."
Ah!
Why am I so poor?
At the thought of paying, she quickly looked at her phone. Master Jing Jing had already transferred 6000 yuan to her.
Finally, she didn't have to stay behind to wash the dishes.
Happy!
What he didn't know was that Chen Ping 'an had secretly paid for it under the guise of going to the toilet.
She sat back down and saw Wu Zixuan preparing to pay with a pained expression.
At this moment, Chen Ping 'an whispered into Wu Zixuan's ear,""Do you want to play something exciting?"
"What?" Wu Zixuan became vigilant.
This guy wouldn't want to eat another serving, right?
"You haven't eaten a dine and dash before, have you?" Chen Ping 'an smiled.
"No, I haven't." Wu Zixuan shook her head. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked,"What…what do you want?"
"Today, we'll dine and dash.”
"You're crazy!" Wu Zixuan's heart raced.
Although it was exciting, she was afraid of going to the police station…
"I'll count to three. Let's run together."
"Three!"
Chen Ping 'an skipped a few steps and pulled Wu Zixuan and Wang Kexin out of the restaurant.
Wu Zixuan screamed and was dragged out of the restaurant by Chen Ping 'an. As she ran, Wu Zixuan was so scared that tears flowed down her face." Chen Ping 'an, I don't want to go to the police station…"
"What if I get caught?"
"How embarrassing!"
"I have money…Really, it's my treat…Let me pay!”
Chen Ping 'an only stopped when he ran out of the food street. He pretended to be panting and said,""Fortunately, we didn't catch up. Let's go."
Wu Zixuan put her hands on her waist." Chen Ping 'an…"
"Hmm?"
"You can't do this…"
"What about me?"
"Dine and dash…"
Chen Ping 'an held back his laughter as he looked at Wu Zixuan. In the end, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Wu Zixuan was about to explode from anger. Although she liked this naughty Chen Ping 'an, she was a decent person. How could she dine and dash?
She was ready to take a breather and go back to pay.
"I'm laughing at your stupidity." "Do I look like someone who would dine and dash to you?" Chen Ping 'an laughed as he said.”
"Like…No, you are!" Wu Zixuan was still trembling with fear, her heart almost jumping out of her chest.
"Um…I've already paid for it.”Chen Ping 'an's left hand was in his pocket, and his right hand was holding a bill in front of Wu Zixuan.
"Really?" Wu Zixuan grabbed the bill and looked at it carefully. The amount and date matched. She stared at Chen Ping 'an in surprise and anger and questioned,""When did you pay?"
"When I went to the bathroom."
" Hmph…" Wu Zixuan realized that she had been tricked and said angrily,""Chen Ping 'an! I don't want to talk to you!"
Although he said that, he felt quite happy in his heart.
She had always been the one teasing Chen Ping 'an since she was young.
Now it was her turn to be teased by Chen Ping 'an…
This fool!
When did he become bad?
"Then I'll drive back." Chen Ping 'an turned to leave.
"No!"
"Why?"
"Kexin and I still want to go to the movies.”
“……”
Wu Zixuan didn't care if Chen Ping 'an agreed or not. She pulled Wang Kexin along to buy movie tickets.
Of course, she reluctantly bought one for Chen Ping 'an as a reward for him taking the initiative to pay the bill. Yes, of course, she had agreed that she would treat him. She would transfer the money to him when she went back tonight.
I don't want to spend his money!
It was already five o'clock in the afternoon after watching the movie. She ate some snacks and didn't feel hungry. Wu Zixuan brought Wang Kexin to play on the dance machine, video games, virtual reality VR…
The three of them were very happy.
Unknowingly, it was already ten o'clock at night.
Wu Zixuan and Wang Kexin were also tired of playing, so Chen Ping 'an suggested returning. Wang Kexin said that she wanted to bring some delicacies back for Zhang Ze and the others, so she left the mall and walked to the food street.
As they passed through the wide plaza in front of the mall, they suddenly heard someone singing. Her voice was sweet and infectious.
Chen Ping 'an and the other two couldn't help but stop and squeeze into the crowd.
He saw a twelve-year-old girl playing a guitar and singing.
She was sitting in a wheelchair with her right leg empty, but her smile was very sweet, and her singing was full of optimism.
After the song, the pedestrians applauded and threw in their money.
"What an optimistic girl. Unfortunately, her legs…"
"How pitiful."
"I heard that her parents also passed away in a car accident two years ago, and now she lives with her grandparents…She came out to sing in hopes of reducing the burden on her grandparents.”
Wu Zixuan's eyes were a little red. She quietly took out the last 52 yuan and 50 cents in cash from her bag and placed it in the guitar case in front of the little girl.
"Thank you, sister." The little girl thanked him.
Chen Ping 'an had also invested money, and the system's voice sounded,"
"Ding! Random mission triggered. Host, please sing a song to encourage a little girl to live a positive life.”
" Mission Reward: One lucky draw ticket.”
Chen Ping 'an was touched when he heard the song. At this moment, the system had issued a mission. He walked to the little girl and asked,"Can I sing a song?"
"Sure." The little girl smiled and handed the guitar to Chen Pingan.
Chen Pingan bent down and adjusted the microphone in front of the little girl a little higher. He said into the microphone,""I was attracted by the song just now. I was very touched to see the little girl actively embracing life and being optimistic.”
"Next, I'll sing a song for her. I hope she gets better and better.”
"This song is called 'Snail.'"
