After the durian pastries came out of the oven, Xin Sui brushed them with a layer of honey, making them even more golden and tempting.
She kept four for herself and gave the rest to Xiaoming.
Xiao Ming wasn't afraid of getting burned; he picked one up and took a big bite.
The outer crust was crispy, and the durian filling inside burst out. He quickly slurped it into his mouth.
Sweet and smooth.
That tasted absolutely wonderful!
Xin Sui gave one to each of Shui Duoduo, Shui Qingqing, and Li Beibei.
I took one for myself as well.
The moment the food was brought to my lips, before I could even take a bite, I felt an extremely intense gaze upon me.
Turning around, she saw Cat Ears staring intently at the durian pastry in her hand.
Two big, round eyes, clearly displaying two words—want to eat.
How could she possibly eat after that?
Xin Sui broke the durian pastry in half and gave him one half: "Here, eat it."
Cat Ears quickly took it, saying, "Thanks."
Taking a bite, "Ouch, it's so hot, meow~"
While eating, Xiao Ming glanced at the people who had received durian pastries, clearly unhappy that they had taken away his food.
Xin Sui tapped him on the head. "What are you looking at? Aren't these eight enough for you?"
Xiaoming: "Not enough!"
Xin Sui: "Then I'll make it for you again when we get back, okay?"
Xiao Ming was finally somewhat satisfied.
He ate one after another, and in no time he had finished all eight durian pastries, not even leaving a crumb on the plate.
Lou Jiali: "..."
The rest of the people: "..."
Lou Jiali was even prepared for a major hemorrhage, but before she could even speak, the items were gone.
After finishing his meal, Xiaoming licked his fingers and handed Xinsui a promotion card.
Xin Sui took a look and found that the advancement cards were more exquisite than those from the first round of the competition.
As for the runes engraved on it, she couldn't understand them.
"Li Xueli, what's this thing you made called?" Lou Jiali asked as she came over.
Xin Sui had nothing to hide: "Durian pastry."
Lou Jiali: "I want to buy the method of making it. Name your price."
Besides wanting to win first place and claim the fifth-floor reward, she also came to participate in the Bright City Food Festival competition with a mission from her family.
In their own spiritualized hotel, one of the rooms (308) has become spiritualized again.
The Lou family was initially overjoyed, thinking they had gained another helpful member.
Little did they know that the spirit-infused room 308 was not friendly to the Lou family, but rather evil.
Spiritual beings (a collective term for spiritualized entities) have different stances: friendly, evil, and chaotic neutral.
This is easy to understand; a spirit with a friendly stance will naturally have a friendly attitude towards humans.
An evil spirit that enjoys toying with and even torturing humans.
It is neutral and its attitude depends on its mood.
Since the Lou family originally ran the Linghua Restaurant, it naturally developed a favorable impression of the Lou family after being spiritualized, and its stance was naturally friendly.
They provided various forms of assistance to the Lou family after the apocalypse.
But room 308, for some reason, has an evil stance.
Every member of the Lou family who entered that room was swallowed up by it, with no way out.
Even more outrageous is that the person in room 308 also enjoys gourmet food and is extremely picky about taste.
At first, the Lou family could manage to supply the food, but later it became difficult.
Because 308 got tired of the food at the hotel, he refused to eat it anymore.
Then it began to devour the Lou family members again.
Unfortunately, room 308 is quite strange; it can even use illusions to lure the Lou family inside.
They can't avoid it even if they want to, unless they move out of the hotel.
But how is that possible?
The hotel is their foundation.
It was not just a place to live, but also a symbol of their honor and status.
If the Lou family moves out of the hotel, even a fool would know there's something wrong.
Various forces will come to investigate, and may even take the opportunity to attack the Lou family. That will be the real danger.
Unfortunately, despite trying various methods, they were unable to defeat Number 308, which even became stronger.
If this continues, the Lou family might be swallowed up by room 308!
Her purpose in coming out this time was to find food that could satisfy 308.
She didn't have high hopes originally.
Even the food at their Loujia Hotel couldn't satisfy 308's appetite, so how could the nutritional pastes and meds eaten by people outside possibly be as good?
But she never expected that she would meet a "Li Xueli".
This woman is something else; she made delicious food that even she found mouthwatering twice in a row.
If they could bring her back to the Lou family, would their crisis be resolved?
Lou Jiali maintained her arrogant demeanor on the surface, but her mind was racing with thoughts.
When money is offered to him, Xin Sui naturally won't turn it away.
He used the same trick he used yesterday with the cat ears, asking, "How much are you offering?"
Lou Jiali frowned: "You're the seller, you make the offer."
Xin Sui: "You are the buyer, you make the offer."
Lou Jiali: "..."
This Li Xueli is really cunning.
"100 crystal coins".
Xin Sui ignored her completely and started tidying up the table.
Lou Jiali was furious. "200 crystal coins, that's the most I can offer."
Xin Sui said slowly, "I only sell my recipes to people who are sincere, and you are far from sincere, so don't waste your time here."
Lou Jiali: "Then tell me, how many do you want?"
