Chapter 255 Is this a genetic mutation?
"Brother, I'm not saying anything, but you just said your family never eats spicy food, so you should give up on this turkey noodle."
"That's right, we should do things within our means and not force ourselves to eat," a customer advised.
Xiong Ce didn't listen to the advice, "Uh... I want to eat, I really want to eat."
"No more talk, brother. Good luck to you."
This is just bullshit advice.
It is difficult to persuade a damned ghost with kind words. Let go of the desire to help others and respect their fate.
Xiong Ce scanned the QR code to place the order, and carefully noted that it should be slightly spicy.
Over the years, I have only seen the natural colors of the ingredients and almost never eat spicy food.
I don’t know why, but this time I’m particularly interested in the boss’s new turkey noodles.
Especially after smelling the spicy aroma of the chili peppers and seeing the diners eating them ferociously, I wanted to eat even more.
I really don’t know what’s wrong with me.
Xiong Ce himself also found it quite strange.
So even after getting the turkey noodles, I was still a little confused.
He held the bowl in one hand and the chopsticks in the other and took a sip.
The fine chili sauce wrapped in noodles enters the mouth, and the spicy taste is like a spark, instantly igniting the taste buds.
Xiong Ce's ears buzzed and his expression was dull.
Su Chen and the other diners were watching his reaction.
Seeing him dumbfounded.
A kind young lady quickly handed over some sweet water and said, "Hurry, drink a couple of sips to relieve the spiciness."
Unexpectedly, Xiong Ce pushed it away without any appreciation, tears welling up in his eyes, "No, I can still eat."
"Forget it, you can't stand even a little spice."
“No, I really think I can eat!”
After taking the third bite, Xiong Ce felt that he was getting better and better.
The spiciness seems to be decreasing, this slightly spicy taste is really not spicy, delicious! It's so satisfying!
His expression was no longer dull and he ate faster.
Others thought it was suicidal.
Su Chen also shook his head helplessly and appealed to everyone again, "If you can't handle spicy food, don't try it. This guy is a negative example."
Negative examples are being feasted upon.
And I suddenly realized that the bland diet I ate before I was eighteen was not called food.
Boiled vegetables, meat that is always light without any chili, and even foods with strong odors such as green onions, ginger, garlic and onions basically never appear in my home.
His family are very extreme bland eaters.
He had always thought there was nothing wrong with it.
But this time, it really got to the point.
"Delicious! I didn't know chili peppers were this good! I love the taste! I'll even add some spice myself!"
Xiong Ce looked at the hot sauce and chili powder in the seasoning area, his eyes shining!
Su Chen and a group of customers were stunned.
"No, didn't you say your family never eats spicy food?"
"Yeah, you weren't like that just now."
"That's too fast. I suggest you take it easy. Be careful not to overwhelm your stomach."
Under everyone's kind persuasion, Xiong Ce's hand trembled as he put the hot sauce in, "Okay, I'll put less."
It’s okay, at least it’s not a lethal dose and won’t kill you.
Everyone thought in their hearts.
Anyway, the boss and everyone are here. If this guy can't bear it anymore, they will send him to the hospital immediately.
After Xiong Ce added spicy food, he started to have a runny nose at first, but after taking a few sips of water he got used to it and finished the turkey noodles in big mouthfuls.
His cheeks were flushed, the light in his eyes was getting brighter and brighter, and he was completely excited.
"It's delicious, so delicious! Boss, your turkey noodles have opened the door to a new world for me! From today on, I will never eat food without chili again. I want spicy food!"
Xiong Ce danced with excitement.
Su Chen:?
"Um...you...are you stupid because of the spiciness?"
It's very worrying.
Other customers had the same concerns. As they were both the boss and his customers, there was some affection between them.
"Brother, what do you think this is?"
Someone raised three fingers and asked Xiong Ce.
Xiong Ce:.
"You think I'm drunk?" Xiong Ce was speechless and choked. "I'm fine. I'm just too happy."
As Xiong Ce spoke, he felt inexplicably aggrieved. He felt aggrieved that he had not tasted spicy food for so many years.
God knows how much delicious food he missed.
"I'm very sober now. I think the boss's turkey noodles ignited the spicy gene in my genes. The spicy taste is so delicious and wonderful. It feels like my life has been lit up."
Xiong Ce looked excited.
Being able to talk so much, it seems that there is indeed no problem.
Su Chen let out a sigh of relief.
Really, it’s really uncommon for a boss to have to worry about the mental state of diners.
"Why not bring your parents over to try it tomorrow!" someone suggested with a smile.
"No, no, no, my parents have hardly eaten spicy food in recent years. When we go out to eat, we only choose Cantonese and Jiangsu cuisine. They definitely can't eat it."
"Huh? That's strange, you can actually handle spicy food so well." Someone muttered, "Could it be a genetic mutation?"
"You didn't pick it up, did you? Hahaha!" Wang Bin understood immediately and started joking.
Everyone was stunned, and then looked at Wang Bin, their eyes full of surprise and seriousness.
Song Fei immediately gave Wang Bin a big bag.
Wang Bin immediately backed off, "Sorry, I was just joking."
"No, I think what Erha's father said makes sense."
A diner next to him suddenly spoke up.
"Someone who never eats spicy food took to it so quickly after trying it for the first time. Maybe you should really consider the issue of family genes."
Everyone was talking at once, which made Xiong Ce stunned for a moment, and then he fell into deep thought.
It was a long time before he spoke.
"When I think about it, I don't look much like my parents. My aunt once joked that I was picked up from a trash can, and my parents scolded her for it."
???
The customers looked at each other in confusion.
No way, no way, eating turkey noodles, can you really come up with a story?
If there really is something behind this young man's life story, then the boss's turkey noodles would have invisibly revealed the truth.
But is this truth good or bad?
The diner just now had the same concern and softened his tone.
"We are just guessing, there is no factual basis. Your parents love you, that's what matters most."
"Yeah!" Xiong Ce nodded heavily, with more worries gathering in his mind.
In his recollection, many small stories seemed to be opened up by this turkey noodles, and the stories suddenly came together.
For example, his skin is fair, while his parents' skin is darker.
For example, he is allergic to peanuts, but his parents are fine with eating peanuts.
for example
Many little stories like this, which were different from those of his parents, gradually became clear in his memory.
Thinking of this, Xiong Ce covered his face.
No way, no way, he couldn't have really been picked up from the trash can, right?
Ahhhh, he needs to go back and ask his parents for answers!
Xiong Ce ran away with mixed feelings.
Su Chen and a group of customers were left with complicated expressions.
"Well, are we overthinking it?"
Wang Bin's face was full of worry. He was worried that nothing would really happen because of the boss's turkey noodles and his few words.
"Well, I think in this kind of situation, it's better to be safe than sorry."
