The two looked in the direction of the sound and met Ling Miao's smiling face.
Cedrian's expression froze, and he almost stiffly forced a smile. "Okay... thank you."
He hadn't expected the other party to arrive so quickly.
Ling Miao suppressed a smile and looked away.
Although the general was handsome, the corners of his mouth twitched upwards on his cold face, which was quite amusing.
Cedrian didn't know why she suddenly turned her head, her expression dejected as she lowered her eyes.
His gaze fell upon the dishes laid out in front of him.
One dish of sweet and sour pork tenderloin, one dish of steamed spare ribs, and one dish of blanched bok choy.
It's a flavor I like and it's also light.
Cedrian curled his lips into a smile, and the irritation in his heart suddenly disappeared.
He picked up his chopsticks and took the first bite of the ribs.
The color is very light, with black beans scattered throughout. Ling Miao explained that these are fermented black beans she made herself.
The pork ribs were incredibly tender, more tender than I had ever imagined. The moment my tongue touched them, the tender pork ribs glided across my tongue...
Ironically, while it's tender, it has absolutely no fishy smell.
He rarely saw lightly cooked meat in interstellar space.
For meat, the unpleasant odor that is difficult to remove has become its biggest problem.
Braised or stir-fried dishes can remove some of the fishy smell, but only mild cooking methods can completely eliminate the fishy smell of meat in order to preserve its original flavor.
Even if it's not there, other seasonings are added to cover it up.
But this steamed pork ribs has a tender and smooth texture that you can taste between your lips and teeth, without any fishy smell at all.
He unknowingly picked up a few more pieces, and only realized it when he had eaten most of the ribs on the plate.
Across from him, Yarsi watched longingly.
Seeing that the general had come to his senses, he couldn't help but speak up.
"General, may I have a taste?"
The general was generous and magnanimous, especially kind to his subordinates. Yarsey didn't think he would refuse his idea, especially since it was just a small piece of rib.
He eagerly prepared to reach out with his chopsticks to pick it up.
Then I heard an indifferent voice from the other end.
"no."
? ? ?
What did he just hear?
Did you mishear me?
He raised his head suspiciously, met the general's indifferent gaze, and suddenly shuddered, quickly withdrawing his restless hand.
For the first time, a question arose in my mind: Is it really that delicious?
Thinking about it, his eyes lit up again. He looked left and right, but couldn't see Ling Miao, so he had to regretfully give up the idea.
We'll have to wait until next time.
He watched as the general ate several pieces, then turned his chopsticks to the sweet and sour pork.
He knew about this dish; he had heard people around him talking about it before.
It has a sweet and sour taste, which is perfect for children and the elderly.
I don't know why the anchor served this dish to the general.
He couldn't help but steal glances at the other person. The features were sharp and deep, with an aggressive look. He was handsome and dashing, with a detached expression and pale lips that occasionally parted as he chewed.
With that face, just thinking about him eating food that only children like...
Yarsi couldn't help but be filled with questions.
It's really disjointed, isn't it?
I wonder if the general likes it or not?
"What's up?"
Yarsey quickly looked away and lowered her head to eat. "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered I needed to bring Sony some food."
Fortunately, the general seemed to have only asked the question casually and did not respond further.
Yarsi was relieved and happily began to enjoy the food in front of him.
Ling Miao didn't leave the kitchen until the two of them finished eating.
There were so many customers waiting for their food in the restaurant that she had to be extra careful.
Even Susan and Rella were completely at her beck and call.
The task of delivering the groceries fell to the enthusiastic twins.
Fortunately, the two children were full of energy and didn't find it difficult to do.
All three of them were exhausted by the end of the day.
After seeing off the last guest, Ling Miao looked at the completely dark sky outside and turned to ask:
"Is there anything you'd like to eat?"
They were so busy today that they hadn't even had dinner yet.
When food was mentioned, Rella got excited. Her eyes lit up, and forgetting that she was still slumped in her chair, she started gesturing wildly, "I want to eat that, that..."
She frowned, racking her brains for a long time before finally shrugging, "I forgot the name, and it seems you don't have any ingredients left."
Ling Miao shook her head with a smile, "Then forget it, let's talk about it when you remember."
She then looked at Susan, "Is there anything you'd like to eat?"
The other person hesitated for a moment, then slowly shook their head, "Make something simple."
Ling Miao nodded, then looked at the twins with bright, sparkling eyes.
They are the great contributors to my success today.
Seeing Ling Miao's gaze shift towards them, the two stood up, beaming with joy, "We like them both!"
"Everything Sister Miaomiao makes is delicious!"
"Then I'll just do whatever?"
After consulting with them, Ling Miao began checking the ingredients in the kitchen.
To be honest, there aren't many ingredients left to choose from.
Most have already bottomed out.
And Ivan has already run three times today.
I expect there will be even more guests tomorrow.
She rubbed her aching hands and then remembered her recruitment plan.
Ling Miao sighed deeply and went forward to search for the remaining ingredients.
After searching for a while, she stared at the small piece of beef that remained in front of her and fell into deep thought.
As for the rest, they were all vegetables, and because they had been sitting for so long, they had become somewhat wilted.
