"hiss--"
Susan ate without looking up, her face flushed and her eyes sparkling, yet she still couldn't resist reaching for the fish in front of her with her chopsticks.
It's so delicious!
Ouch—it's a bit spicy.
As she ate, she thought to herself, the burning pain on her tongue causing her body to sweat profusely, her forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.
"Hello"
Susan looked up and saw an old lady standing in front of her, smiling as she asked, "What kind of dish is this?"
Susan wiped the sweat from her brow and enthusiastically recommended, "This is the new pickled fish dish at Youwei Restaurant, it's really delicious!"
As she spoke, Susan couldn't help but hiss and added, "It's a little spicy."
The old lady frowned when she heard "fish," but seeing Susan's reaction, she became interested: "How spicy?"
Seeing that the person in front of her had taken an interest, Susan enthusiastically turned the chopsticks over and handed them to her: "Try it."
Audya didn't mind and took the chopsticks offered to her, reaching straight for the fish.
The golden broth is piled high with sliced fish, the plating is exquisite and the colors are so enticing that just one look makes your mouth water. Not to mention the rich aroma that wafts into your nostrils, making your mouth water even more.
As for fish, she had tried it when she was younger, but it was fishy and slimy, and not very tasty. Although this dish was made with fish, it didn't have the fishy smell, which made Audya quite interested.
She casually put the snow-white fish slice into her mouth, and the dull sensation on her tongue instantly exploded with a burning spiciness, mixed with a slight sourness that rushed straight to her nerves.
Audrea's pupils contracted slightly as a strong taste assaulted her aged palate.
As her body aged day by day, her organs also deteriorated. As she got older, Audrey couldn't remember the last time she had tasted such a rich and satisfying flavor.
No, I've never tasted such a strong and intense flavor, even when I was young.
Audya narrowed her eyes slightly, chewing slowly with her tongue. Fine beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her nose, and a long-lost sense of exhilaration welled up from the bottom of her heart, an impulse that seemed to have only been felt when she was young and adventuring with her husband.
As I've gotten older, I've lost that strong urge.
Seeing that the old lady was only chewing slowly and not saying anything, Susan became a little anxious. "Is it not to your taste?"
This was the only reason that could convince her: the manager's ingredients and cooking skills were top-notch. Susan couldn't think of any other reason.
Hearing the anxious voice of the girl beside her, Audya glanced at her. Her usually calm and composed face showed a rare hint of cheerfulness as she shook her head. "It's delicious. It reminds me of the adventures I had with my husband when we were young."
Before Susan could speak, he asked again, "Is the manager of this shop here? I'd like one too."
Susan nodded happily and explained, "The manager is in the kitchen!"
"Store Manager—"
Hearing Susan's shout, Ling Miao peeked out from the kitchen and immediately saw that a new customer had arrived at the shop.
She wiped her hands, smiled, and greeted them, "Hello, is there anything you'd like to eat?"
"There are only two dishes available in the restaurant right now."
She pointed somewhat apologetically to the electronic display screen on the wall that scrolled in real time, where two dish names were pitifully displayed.
Handmade fish ball noodles, pickled fish.
Odeya was a little disappointed; she wanted to try other ingredients.
But it didn't matter. Remembering the lingering taste on her tongue, she readily agreed, "I'll have a serving of pickled fish."
“No problem,” Ling Miao was about to nod when she remembered something, “The sauerkraut fish is a bit spicy?”
"I love spicy food!"
Unexpectedly, the old lady was a straightforward person. Ling Miao responded and turned back into the kitchen.
Susan was overjoyed to have successfully recruited a customer. When she first arrived, the manager had hoped she would bring more customers, but unfortunately, she was new to Tadar Star and didn't know anyone. Now, Susan was thrilled with every new customer she brought.
The manager's food is so delicious, more people should know about it!
In a moment of joy, she chatted with the old lady in front of her for a while, and the two of them chatted, which brought them closer together.
It wasn't until Ling Miao brought out the prepared pickled fish that Susan reluctantly stopped talking. Since being exiled to Tadar Star by her family, her former friends had also distanced themselves from her, and she hadn't confided in anyone for a long time.
While eating the dishes prepared by the manager at the restaurant, she felt too embarrassed to tell him some of her negative thoughts.
But perhaps Grandma Audrey stayed because of her Amway recommendation, while Susan was more open-minded.
After speaking her mind, Susan felt much better, which made Ling Miao, who was serving the dishes, smile. "Did something good happen?"
Susan shook her head: "I've figured some things out."
“I want to thank Grandma Odeya.”
Ling Miao was slightly surprised. She looked at Susan, who was noticeably more lively than before, and then turned to look at the smiling Audya. The other woman nodded at Susan with a calm expression, saying, "You also need to be able to think things through yourself."
Ling Miao raised an eyebrow, didn't interrupt, and returned to the kitchen after arranging the dishes.
The live stream ended after the sauerkraut fish was cooked.
We are currently settling the amount of live stream tips and the "deliciousness points".
Ling Miao stared excitedly at the semi-transparent live stream screen in front of her. The circle on it was spinning rapidly. Suddenly, it started spinning like a car with a full tank of gas, and then slowly stopped just as Ling Miao had a premonition.
Live stream tipping amount:
There are over a million!
Ling Miao covered her mouth, spun around twice, barely managing to compose herself before checking the deliciousness value.
The fact that the live stream had only a few hundred viewers was a coincidence; it just so happened that a wealthy patron threw in two warships to generate that much traffic.
Normally, there wouldn't be this many.
After calming down, I focused my attention on how delicious it was.
Deliciousness rating: 2860 points
When distributed among everyone in the live stream, it means that everyone in the live stream contributed a few points of "deliciousness value" to some extent.
If things continue like this, it won't be long before she earns enough Deliciousness Points to go home! She'll even have the chance to travel to other worlds!
The sudden wealth came so easily that Ling Miao couldn't help but feel elated, dreaming of a bright future.
A cold, mechanical voice suddenly rang in my ears—
After deducting 2280 points for live streaming operations, the previously owed 500 points were automatically replenished, leaving 80 points remaining.
After deducting live streaming operation costs and the platform's automatic commission, the remaining amount is: 426.5
Ling Miao nearly vomited blood, gritting her teeth as she demanded, "Why are the live stream operation points so high? Wasn't it agreed that all the tips in the live stream would be mine alone?!"
Live streaming operation points are the energy consumed by the system to connect to the Star Network; similarly, live streaming operation costs are also priced in.
Seemingly feeling somewhat guilty, the system remained silent.
Ling Miao tried to hold back, but she couldn't help herself and fiercely raised her middle finger:
"Damn it! System!"
