Chapter 183 Would you like a sweet strawberry?



If you can't get strawberries, you say they're sour.

Although I know that the sourness the viewers in the live stream are talking about is the sourness of heartbreak.

But Gu Xinghe, who felt nothing of the same sentiment as them, only thought that autumn strawberries were indeed very delicious.

After tasting the strawberry flavor, she passed it on to Gu Xinghe.

Mia seemed to have forgotten the horrible experience she had just had with the sour strawberries.

She then curiously took out a strawberry from the small basket she had picked.

At this moment, Mia held the strawberry by the stem with three fingers of her left hand and first licked the tip of the strawberry with her equally red tongue.

It was as if they were making a careful and cautious attempt.

But after confirming that this would make it impossible to know the taste of the strawberries in advance.

Mia slowly pierced the fruit flesh between her teeth, and then gracefully took a small bite off the tip of the strawberry.

Seeing this, Gu Xinghe couldn't help but chuckle.

Even though she seemed to have forgotten the sour taste of the strawberry, Mia was now much more cautious than before when she ate the whole strawberry.

"Huh?!"

Mia's eyes lit up as she looked at the strawberry flesh, which had turned from red to white after she took a bite.

After feeling Gu Xinghe's intense gaze fixed on her, she turned around to look at him with delight.

"This strawberry is sweet!"

As she said this, Mia couldn't wait to feed Gu Xinghe the half-strawberry in her hand.

[It's sour! This strawberry is definitely sour!]

Whether it's sour or sweet, what does it matter? We're always the ones experiencing the sourness, aren't we?

[It's just playful banter between a young couple, cold face.jpg]

Although it was believed to be just another prank by Mia.

But Gu Xinghe, who had already heard the girl's true feelings, ate the sweet strawberry that she offered him without any surprise.

Because half of it had already been bitten off.

The first thing Gu Xinghe's mouth came into contact with was actually the sweet red juice that was already faintly flowing from the strawberry.

Then, the juicy, soft flesh, along with the crunchy strawberry seeds, danced in your mouth.

Compared to the previous strawberry, which was mainly sour and astringent, only showing a hint of sweetness at the end.

The second strawberry I'm eating now is undoubtedly much sweeter.

At this moment, perhaps it was because the second sweet strawberry brought her a different experience from the first sour strawberry.

Mia looked at the small basket she was holding, filled with bright red strawberries, and began her blind box experience.

But every strawberry Mia tasted afterward was undoubtedly shared with Gu Xinghe, with each of them taking half a bite and the other half a bite.

Whether it's bittersweet or bittersweet, that's probably the meaning behind what the two of them are sharing at this moment.

After patiently searching through the strawberry field once again for the "treasures" hidden among the leaves and roots.

Gu Xinghe and Mia harvested another small basket full of red strawberries.

At this point, the two, who were about to leave the strawberry farm and head to other check-in locations, discovered a processing area that had been partitioned off behind it.

It sounds like you've entered an industrial manufacturing site, but it's actually a semi-open kitchen.

Visitors who pick strawberries in the strawberry farm can have the freshly picked strawberries processed in various ways.

For example, Gu Xinghe saw someone pour melted sugar syrup onto the skewered strawberries and then let them cool before eating.

Is this some kind of otherworldly version of candied strawberries?

In addition, there are tourists with obviously superb culinary skills making even more difficult strawberry cakes here.

Besides, there must be quite a few people researching new, bizarre dishes.

When it comes to ordinary cooking, Gu Xinghe believes that if given a recipe, he can still produce a decent dish.

For example, he made butter cookies that looked and tasted quite good at the Dawn Boarding School.

But if he were now required to improvise without any reference, then all he could create would be innovative dishes with legendary flavors.

So at this moment, after receiving Mia's expectant gaze upon him...

Gu Xinghe accompanied her to an abandoned processing site and chose—

Theoretically, making strawberry jam is a foolproof method.

As we all know, whether it's a high-sugar dessert or a dessert that doesn't taste very sweet...

Most desserts are actually made with "lethal amounts" of sugar.

Compared to the half teaspoon of sugar usually added as a seasoning in regular cooking.

When making various baked goods and desserts, the amount of sugar added should be calculated in whole bags.

Without enough sugar, these desserts are actually very difficult to shape.

So at this moment, looking at the strawberry chunks in the pot that were gradually thickening, Gu Xinghe calmly added half a bag of sugar to them.

Mia, who rarely goes into the kitchen to cook, looked at the mountain of sugar in the pot with a troubled expression.

[So much sugar?]

I think I know why their relationship progressed so quickly.

Clearly, Gu Xinghe, having heard Mia's thoughts, knew that she thought he was making some kind of "unique" innovative dish.

Moreover, the same innovative cuisine and innovative painting style.

Mia clearly believes that Gu Xinghe and Mia both like all sorts of novel things, which is why their relationship progressed so quickly.

While Mia's understanding is indeed correct to some extent.

After all, Gu Xinghe does like novel things and is happy to cooperate with Mia's various wild ideas.

But right now he has this subtle feeling that he can be told that his cocktails taste weird, but he can't be told that he's bad at cooking.

"Mia, did you bring bread in your picnic basket?"

“Yes…yes!”

"That's good. It'll be perfect to have bread with jam later."

"Yes, I'll be looking forward to it!"

But after hearing Gu Xinghe's question and seeing the strawberry jam he was currently cooking—

This is because the strawberry jam made by boiling does not contain coloring agents like those sold in stores.

At this point, the strawberry jam in the pot looks dark in color and is constantly bubbling up with small bubbles.

It's hard not to think of the poisons made by pharmacists.

Moreover, in Mia's understanding, Gu Xinghe was indeed capable of making potions.

But no matter what, she has now made up her mind that "no matter what kind of strawberry jam Gu Xinghe makes later that tastes strange, I will say it's delicious."

Hearing the girl's heartfelt words, Gu Xinghe's expression became even more complicated.
