[Gourmet food + light-hearted comedy + alluring female lead + power-up progression, mindless爽文 (satisfying read) not recommended for overthinking]. Gourmet NPC Ruan Tian transmigrated into a post-a...
I have never tasted such delicious food since the apocalypse.
He only took one bite, and was so overwhelmed by the deliciousness that he held the vegetable corner in his hands and kept shedding tears.
"Delicious...it's so delicious!"
The others stood by, watching longingly. Some were so hungry they kept swallowing, but they still harbored some doubts.
"Is it really that delicious? It's just a vegetable dumpling, it's not as amazing as you're making it sound."
The person who was carefully eating the vegetable dumplings turned around abruptly and glared at him.
"That's because you haven't tasted it yet! Once you've tried it yourself, you'll know what true delicacy is!"
Others still didn't believe it; wasn't this just an ordinary vegetable dish?
They said they were only two yuan each before the apocalypse, as if everyone had eaten them before, praising them so excessively.
"You're not a spy sent by Ruan Tian, are you? The expression on your face is so exaggerated, is it really as delicious as you say?"
At this point, the crowd was skeptical of his words.
The person involved, who was being severely questioned, instantly exploded!
"I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, then buy one and try it yourself!"
He cautiously tucked the vegetable corner into his clothes, his eyes wide as if someone would try to snatch it away.
"I don't care what you think, just don't try to take mine!"
He was afraid someone would come and snatch it away, so he hurriedly finished the remaining vegetable corners in a few bites, and then greedily licked his lips.
He suffered some internal injuries while fighting zombies, and his health has not recovered even after so long.
But after eating the vegetable dumplings made by Ruan Tian, her health miraculously improved!
Could it be... that these vegetable dumplings are really that magical?
He was still a little skeptical, but despite the pain in his wallet, he asked Ruan Tian to buy him another vegetable dumpling.
He was almost reluctant to eat this vegetable dumpling. It took him five minutes to finish it, and afterwards he really felt much better.
This is amazing!
Others also noticed that the middle-aged man's sallow complexion had improved considerably; he no longer looked as pale as before.
"Could this thing also have beauty benefits?"
After the first person started, others came up and bought some food.
Those with more crystal nuclei should buy more expensive food.
Those with fewer crystal nuclei only eat the simplest vegetable dumplings.
A small group of people stood outside the crowd, constantly observing, waiting to see how others reacted before deciding whether to buy.
At this moment, the bearded man standing at the far back of the crowd was named Xu Shuai.
He had been keeping a close eye on Ruan Tian's movements, and when he discovered that so many people were buying Ruan Tian's food and that the positive review rate had reached a terrifying 100%, he finally couldn't sit still any longer.
"This stuff can really taste that good?"
Xu Shuai didn't believe it; he thought it was just a minor character.
"Before the apocalypse, who couldn't afford a vegetable dumpling? I eat big fish and meat every day, why would I care about this extremely ordinary little vegetable dumpling?"
He chuckled, appearing utterly disdainful, but secretly he was swallowing hard.
"But boss, this stuff smells amazing! It must taste delicious!"
Xu Shuai slapped his underling on the back of the head and reprimanded him:
"Can't you have any backbone? What's so delicious about this stuff that it's making you so hungry? Use your brain!"
He harbored resentment towards Ruan Tian, yet Ruan Tian's business was thriving in the distance.
This put Xu Shuai in a dilemma again, and a thought couldn't help but pop into his mind:
"Is Ruan Tian's cooking really that delicious?"
He couldn't sit still any longer and sent his underlings to find Ruan Tian to buy a vegetable dumpling, since the amount of crystal cores needed wasn't that much.
Let's try it first and see just how delicious Ruan Tian's food really is.
But soon, the henchman returned, looking somewhat reluctant.
Xu Shuai immediately asked, "What exactly happened? Why did you come straight back?"
The younger brother gave a wry smile: "Big brother, Ruan Tian remembers me, she simply won't sell to me!"
Xu Shuai was furious, his eyes practically spitting fire. He glared at Ruan Tian in the distance and cursed:
"Still not selling to me? Who does she think she is! She's just a bit more capable, but she still has to rely on others!"
Xu Shuai was furious, but with so many people watching, he had no choice but to suppress his anger.
At this moment, I cautiously added:
"Ruan Tian also said that we could actually sell them to them."
Upon hearing this, Xu Shuai's lips curled up in a smile.
"I always said that Ruan Tian was somewhat..."
But before Xu Shuai could finish speaking, the younger brother spoke up again:
"She said she would sell it to us, but at double the price."
Xu Shuai's smile vanished instantly, and the smug expression on his face disappeared in a flash.
"This Ruan Tian really thinks she's something special. I'd rather starve than buy anything from her today!"
Fifteen minutes later.
Holding the vegetable dumplings made by Ruan Tian in his hands, Xu Shuai cursed inwardly while remarking:
"It was really delicious, and I don't know if it was just my imagination, but I felt very comfortable after eating it."
No wonder Ruan Tian's food is so popular.
If it were just about trying one flavor, there wouldn't be so many repeat customers.
"This is indeed a very powerful ability. Ruan Tian, you do have some skill."
Xu Shuai ate the red oil wontons he had bought twice as much as he had before, and he was delighted by the taste.
"It's so delicious! Who would have thought that we could still eat such delicious food after the apocalypse?"
He's starting to regret it. He shouldn't have offended Ruan Tian in the first place. Now look what's happened...
"It's all that bitch Lu Xuexue's fault. She actually used me as a shield. She should be glad she didn't die at my hands."
Xu Shuai closed his eyes, suppressed his anger, and continued to enjoy the delicious red oil wontons.
Ruan Tian's business is booming.
To be honest, the survivors who managed to escape from D City all the way to the border of A City and survive such a brutal Red Moon Tide are truly remarkable.
They all have some strength, and they're not exactly short of things like crystal cores.
So Ruan Tian actually managed to upgrade her stroller by relying on this unexpected windfall!
[Congratulations, host! Your electric tricycle has reached level sixteen. Please keep up the good work; a major breakthrough is expected after level twenty.]
Ruan Tian's eyes lit up. She wondered what new form it would take after reaching level 20.
Just thinking about it in her mind made Ruan Tian's happy lips keep curving upwards.
After a long period of activity, the crowd of customers finally dispersed.
From that day on, Ruan Tian's reputation slowly began to grow.
A mysterious legend also circulated during the apocalypse.
Ruan Tian's electric tricycle will one day become an invincible food castle that can move freely in the apocalypse!
