Chapter 144: Smelling the scent

Imperial Research Institute, dining area.

Charles has been staring at the fire since Ye Jiaojiao left, fearing that something unexpected might happen to the heavyweight medicinal dish "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall" in his hands.

Time passed by minute by minute, and just when the time Ye Jiaojiao had given had arrived and Charles wanted to go look for someone, the door of the small kitchen was pushed open.

Charles turned around excitedly, but the person who came was not Ye Jiaojiao, whom he had been thinking about.

Charles: "Dr. Hunter? Why are you in the kitchen? Is there something wrong?"

Hunter: "Charles, what's in that jar?"

Hunter did not answer Charles' question, but stared at the jar on the fire with burning eyes, his body swaying slightly, as if he might fall down at any time.

Charles was startled and hurried forward to support Hunter.

Charles: "Are you okay? Where's your assistant?"

Dr. Hunt is a very special person in the Imperial Research Institute.

He is engaged in a research project on rare minerals.

Contributed immeasurable knowledge and wealth to the empire.

Because we have to deal with all kinds of strange and exotic minerals all year round, we basically never take off our radiation protection suits.

I stayed in the lab for several months.

He looked between a young man and a middle-aged man, but his face was as pale as paper.

To prevent accidents, Dr. Hunter never lacks people around him.

Charles didn't understand why Dr. Hunter came to the kitchen alone.

If something happens to this big guy, I won’t be able to pay for it even if I sell him!

Charles' heart was in turmoil, wondering whether he should secretly call for help. Hunter took a moment to calm down, and after the dizziness subsided a little, he persevered and approached the fire again: "What's in there?"

Charles was supporting Hunter and could only follow him closer to the stove. His shoulders trembled under Hunter's gaze, and he answered honestly, "It's filled with Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Dr. Xia Ming and Dean Xia asked me to watch over it here."

Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?

What is Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?

The taste is amazing.

Hunter's mental power level is very high, but without a trace of aggressiveness. He is a natural auxiliary researcher.

Therefore, Hunter's five senses are different from those of ordinary people.

Buddha Jumps Over the Wall emits almost no aroma during the cooking process.

If Hunt didn't have such keen senses, he wouldn't have come here looking for something unusual.

"Dr. Hunter?" Charles and Cyril walked in front and were the first to step into the kitchen. Charles was very surprised when he saw Hunter in the kitchen.

When Charles saw his savior coming, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and secretly winked at Charles for help. Charles did not ignore him and hurried forward to support Hunter. He also sent a message to Hunter's assistant, asking them to come quickly.

"Dean, Mr. Xia." Hunt's health was really not good. He first greeted Charles, then walked past Charles and nodded to Xia Ming. In just a few movements, his already pale face had become almost transparent.

Ye Jiaojiao followed behind Xia Ming and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

This person should be a generation older than Charles.

His face was pale and his lips were dark purple.

The sadness and coldness between his brows made him look like an alien. Coupled with his thin body, Ye Jiaojiao seriously suspected that a gust of wind could blow him away.

When Ye Jiaojiao was looking at Hunter, Xia Ming had already walked to his side. A trace of regret flashed across his eyes, but his face still had the loving look of a junior. He teased: "Did you come here because of the scent?"

"Yeah, it smells good." Hunter not only did not deny it, but also nodded slightly, which moved the strands of hair on his forehead, and he inexplicably looked a little more lively.

"Haha, then you're in for a treat today!" Xia Ming was very happy to see this, and secretly gave Ye Jiaojiao a look of request. Ye Jiaojiao understood at a glance, and motioned to the old man to rest assured. She took the initiative to come to the stove, turned off the fire, and asked Charles to help, and together they moved the wine jar to the operating table.

Xia Er knew that Ye Jiaojiao's live broadcast room was still open, so he said hello to Xia Ming, led a group of people out of the kitchen, and went to the restaurant to wait.

Ye Jiaojiao turned on the holographic mode again after Xia Er and the others left.

The lens was opened to wide-angle mode and the radio was turned on.

In the live broadcast room, the audience who had been waiting for the last dish soon noticed the changes in the room and knew that Ye Jiaojiao had returned after dinner.

【Ah, the anchor lady is back! 】

[Is the last dish ready? Ouch, I'm so anxious.]

[Host, that Poria cocos cake is super delicious! So sweet!]

[Baji, baji~~~ I'm still savoring that Gastrodia elata fish~~~]

Ye Jiaojiao didn't look at the comment section after she put the dishes on the shelves. Now seeing everyone frantically posting comments, she waited for a while and picked out a few comments to reply to.

Ye Jiaojiao: "I like Fuling cakes too. I ate several just now."

Ye Jiaojiao: "There's only one dish left today, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. I started preparing it before the show started, but it requires so many ingredients and is a bit complicated to make, so I've only just finished it. Sorry to have kept everyone waiting."

Ye Jiaojiao: "Don't worry, you can eat it soon."

After replying to one batch of barrages, another batch of barrages suddenly attracted Ye Jiaojiao's attention.

Live broadcast room comment area——

[Anchor, anchor! I want to complain! Look over here quickly!]

[Miss, you were not here just now, and someone said something bad about you! ]

[Anchor! Someone is trolling you!]

[This is real, little sister. Suddenly, some haters showed up and criticized the medicinal dishes you just made, saying you're a liar and that they didn't make you more beautiful.]

[Actually, I'm a little curious too. The anchor said that eating medicinal food can make you more beautiful. Is that true? I really want to be more beautiful, hehe.]

Spraying medicinal food?

Ye Jiaojiao smiled, not too surprised: "Are there many people like this?"

[There are so many, so many that I can’t even curse them all.]

My hands are sore from reporting.

Those people were mainly mocking the host, saying that the herbal food he made wasn't tasty, that he had nothing good left to make, and that he was just trying to show off.

[The system room management has come out to warn them and blocked a number of accounts, but it shouldn't be serious. I didn't see any warnings appear in the live broadcast room.]

"Thank you all for your support. I'll contact the platform to inquire about this matter later." Ye Jiaojiao was very grateful for the audience's support. After thanking them, she suddenly changed the subject and asked, "So, do you think the medicinal food I made today is delicious?"

[It’s delicious! ]

[It's pretty good, but a little, how should I put it? Not exciting?]

[This is different from the dishes my sister used to make. It makes me feel warm after eating it. I like it anyway.]

I still prefer spicy crayfish.

Ye Jiaojiao: "Medicinal food is both medicine and food, and it focuses more on the effect."

The dishes Ye Jiaojiao made today, such as Gastrodia elata fish and Poria cocos cake, were indeed a bit light. Apart from nutrient solution, the residents of the empire usually eat roasted exotic beasts, so it is normal that they are not used to it.

As for becoming more beautiful, she is not worried because her spokesperson is about to come online.

After saying that, Ye Jiaojiao stopped wasting time, took the bowl that was upside down on the wine jar, and slightly lifted a corner of the lotus leaf. In an instant, a rich aroma of wine rushed into her face and seeped into every corner of the live broadcast room.

The Chinese New Year is approaching, and Jiujiu knows that everyone is about to get busy, and Jiujiu herself is also busy, so she has to go out from time to time...

but!!!

Dear ones, please try not to hoard articles!!!

Daily reading and daily recommendation votes are very important!

I lost in several PKs. Seeing the bad data makes me sad.

Also, I saw some cuties asking about the listing, so Si San Sui will most likely be listed on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, which is the 16th.

I hope everyone can come and support us then.

Jiujiu would like to wish everyone a happy new year with big red envelopes in advance!

Love you~

Please vote~
