Yujingtai.

The two True Lords strolled around the streets for an afternoon before returning to Grandma Ping's house.

Grandma Ping was sitting at the door chatting with Yao Yao, who had just returned home, listening to Yao Yao laughing as she talked about her part-time job at the store that afternoon.

"Uncle Lishui! Uncle Xiaoyue! You're back!"

"Yes, Yao Yao is back too."

"That's right! Our store closes at 5 pm now, which is quite early!"

Yao Yao very thoughtfully ran inside and brought out two chairs.

The two True Lords were very pleased with this, but the thought of their beloved little darling seeking her mate in the future made them feel a little sad.

Yao Yao is such a well-behaved and adorable child, yet she was the one who pursued her!

Grandma Ping picked up the food box that was placed next to her, opened it, and handed it to her two friends.

"Here, have some snacks."

"Isn't this the kind of snack we had at the shop this afternoon?"

"Yes, this pastry is quite delicious. I was just about to ask which store I bought it from."

"It wasn't bought, my older brother made it himself!"

"Was it made by that Mr. Xia?"

"Yes!"

The two True Lords looked at the dorayaki in their hands and suddenly didn't want to eat it anymore.

Grandma Ping asked curiously, "Why aren't you eating?"

"I just ate at Wanmintang and I can't eat anymore."

"Me too."

"Let's leave it for now and eat it later. How's business at Wanmintang today?"

"Great, we arrived early, otherwise we would have had to wait for a table. I heard from the guests that Xiangling won the championship of the King of Chefs competition a few days ago?"

"Yes."

"I never expected her cooking skills to improve so quickly..."

"Xiangling has a talent for cooking, but she was able to win the championship this year thanks to Mr. Xia's guidance."

"Mr. Xia? The owner of that beverage shop?"

"Yes, you've all had this snack, so you should be able to tell how good Mr. Xia's cooking is. He used to eat at Wanmintang a few days ago, and that's how he met Xiangling. He probably admires her talent, because he would always give Xiangling pointers on the dishes whenever he ate there, telling her where she could improve. Xiangling benefited a lot from this. The dish she used in the Chef King Competition, the Baoshan Flying Dragon Pot, was actually created by Mr. Xia on the spot."

"It's so..."

"Xiangling told me seriously before she went on this trip that she wanted to continue the tradition of Wanmintang and also wanted to make dishes that would satisfy Mr. Xia. That girl has always been competitive, especially when it comes to cooking. I can see that she regards Mr. Xia as her goal to catch up with."

"..."

The two True Lords exchanged a glance, and suddenly felt a sense of unease.

"Grandma! Yao Yao!"

Just then, a familiar voice came from not far away.

"True Lord of the Waters! True Lord of the Moon-Slicing Realm! You've arrived too!"

The two True Lords turned their heads, saw the newcomer, and smiled and nodded at her.

"Yanfei, we just arrived this afternoon."

“You came so early this year. I remember last year you arrived the day before Grandma’s birthday.”

"Yes, it's a bit early. How's your work going these days?"

"Quite busy!"

"Your parents are the same; they left you alone with Aping while they went out to play..."

"Haha, let them be. Hmm? This pastry smells delicious. Did Mr. Xia make it?"

"Yes! It was made by the older brother!"

"Wow! Delicious! Mr. Xia's cooking skills are truly superb!"

Grandma Ping stood up with a smile: "Alright, now that Yanfei is back, we should eat too. You two can sit outside if you've finished eating."

A moment later, only the two True Lords remained sitting at the door, silently gazing at each other.

The True Lord of Moon-Slicing and Sun-Building couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you let me do the divination?"

"Then you calculate Xiangling's."

"Okay, you're the one who asked me to do it."

"..."

The True Lord of Moon-Cut Sun took out the few old Mora and threw them out.

"how?"

"...abandoned hexagrams".

“…Calculate Yanfei again.”

"...is also a useless hexagram."

The two True Lords fell into a long silence.

Chapter 189 The Big Brother with Wings

After dinner, we all went for a walk outside.

This time, Diona completely lost her appetite for the various snacks sold at roadside stalls.

Because those grilled fish that looked so tempting didn't even smell as good as the vegetables the owner stir-fried.

It's better not to eat this fish.

When I returned from my walk, Miss Akabane had already boiled water in the kitchen.

"You can go take a shower now. Why didn't you buy any food today?"

"Nobody can eat anymore... Is Senior Akabane still not full?"

"I'm full, but the night is too long."

"There are still instant noodles in the kitchen. If you get hungry tonight, just boil some water and make some noodles."

"Boss, I'd like to eat two boxes."

"Okay, you can have as many boxes as you want. I'll make more for you when you're done."

"Long live the boss!"

By the time night fell, everyone had gone upstairs to sleep.

Miss Akabane sat alone at a table downstairs, slowly reading a novel she had bought from Wanwen Bookstore.

Although the novel is a bestseller in bookstores, she still feels that the content is not quite right.

It's nowhere near as good as the book the boss wrote.

But she was too embarrassed to ask her boss to urge her to update the work, so she could only use it to pass the time.

As midnight approached, Ms. Akabane put down her book and went into the kitchen.

A short while later, she returned to the table with two boxes of instant noodles, waited patiently for a few minutes, and then opened the lids.

A familiar aroma wafted up.

Miss Akabane picked up her chopsticks, eagerly grabbed a bunch of noodles, and put it in her mouth.

Hmm? This smell...

Miss Akabane suddenly paused for a moment.

She noticed that today's instant noodles didn't taste as good as yesterday's.

Although the taste and texture are the same, she just feels that instant noodles have lost much of their deliciousness to her.

It didn't taste as good as the plate of vegetables we had tonight...

To be honest, the boss's cooking skills tonight were on a completely different level compared to his previous cooking skills.

Yesterday she thought instant noodles were the best in the world, but today they've been defeated by a simple plate of stir-fried vegetables, becoming rather bland and tasteless...

Miss Akabane lowered her head and tried her best to finish this box of instant noodles, then looked at the other box of instant noodles with some worry.

She didn't want to eat anymore.

But it would be a waste not to eat it.

correct!
