I'm a male god in Liyue

Ningguang picked up a piece and examined it with great interest.

Two round, golden-yellow pancakes, sandwiched with a layer of soft red bean paste, are quite unique.

The crust exudes a rich aroma of honey and has a very soft texture. The delicate outer layer and the smooth filling blend together to create an exquisite flavor that is simply irresistible.

Ningguang finished one piece and picked up a second one...

She and Bai Shi quickly finished the plate of dorayaki.

A tempting look of satisfaction appeared on Ningguang's face. She picked up her juice, took a sip, and her satisfaction deepened.

After finishing her juice, Ningguang got up to say goodbye.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Xia. The snacks were delicious, and I enjoyed them very much."

"If you like it, Lady Ningguang, please come to my shop often. I make desserts every day."

"Okay."

Ningguang smiled and agreed, then turned and left.

Xia Zhi watched her retreating figure, his expression thoughtful.

It seems the rich woman really just came over today to drink juice and, incidentally, thank herself.

On the road.

Bai Shi turned his head and looked at Ning Guang, who had a pleasant expression on her face, and asked in a low voice, "Lady Ning Guang, are we going to Mr. Xia's shop again tomorrow?"

"Of course I'm going! I'm really looking forward to Mr. Xia's new desserts... I haven't eaten all day, it feels so good to have a full stomach..."

"I'm sorry, Lady Ningguang..."

"Why are you apologizing?"

"I shouldn't have given you that instant noodle; now you can't eat anything else..."

"That's not your problem, and I don't blame you at all. On the contrary, I should thank you. I'm very happy to be able to eat such delicious food."

"But……"

"If anyone's to blame, it's Mr. Xia's instant noodles. They're just too delicious. After eating something of that quality, everything else tastes bland."

"If Lady Ningguang wants to eat it, we can ask Mr. Xia to buy it for us."

"purchase?"

“You can add money!”

"It's not that simple. Those aren't ordinary noodles. They can relieve fatigue, restore energy, and improve your mood... This is definitely not something that money can easily buy."

Ningguang reached out and gently touched her face, feeling that her skin was smoother than usual.

"Mr. Xia's background seems even more mysterious than I imagined. Fortunately, with Grandma Ping's guarantee, we don't need to worry about his stance. He's different from ordinary businessmen; he doesn't open shops to make money, but simply to enjoy this peaceful life. Such people often value relationships more than profits, and it's worthwhile to sincerely befriend him."

At Ningguang's current level, it's very difficult for her to make friends who truly reciprocate her feelings.

The vast majority of people came for her status, wealth, and beauty; in her eyes, they seemed hypocritical and boring.

So she didn't care about getting a free meal; what she really wanted was to meet someone who didn't care about such things and get to know him better.

Chapter 188 It was actually her who pursued him!

The scalding broth churned in the large iron pot, and an incredibly rich aroma rose with the white steam.

The girls in the shop, drawn by the aroma, all moved closer, staring blankly at the food in the pot and swallowing hard.

"Boss, is this a new dish?"

"No, it's just a simple braised pork with fried tofu. I made it for you the day before yesterday."

"But the braised tofu with pork we had last time didn't taste this good at all."

"It's probably because my cooking skills have improved a little bit."

"!"

At this moment, Shen He returned from sending Yao Yao off at Yujingtai and saw a number of passersby standing outside his small shop.

She walked over, just about to tell them that her shop closed at five o'clock, when she smelled an enticing aroma of food wafting from inside the shop.

At the same time, Shen He also heard a series of frantic swallowing sounds coming from the passersby.

"What kind of dish is this?"

"This is the first time I've ever smelled such a wonderful aroma; it's even more tempting than the most expensive dishes at Liuli Pavilion and Xinyue Pavilion!"

Is this a newly opened restaurant?

"It's not a restaurant, it's a beverage shop. I come here every day!"

"Such excellent cooking skills, how come you don't open a restaurant? If you did, I'd come here every day!"

……

After listening for a while, Shen He finally understood that they had been attracted by the aroma of the dinner the boss had prepared that day.

She walked over and pushed open the shop door amidst the envious gazes of passersby.

An even richer aroma of food wafted out of the store.

Passersby swallowed more frequently, eager to see what dishes the restaurant was serving.

But all they saw was Shen He coldly closing the shop door.

Ugh.

The passersby looked disappointed.

"Hey bro, let's go to Liuli Pavilion for a meal. It's on me tonight."

"Why go to Liuli Pavilion? Go to Wanmin Hall! That's the Liyue Chef King competition this year."

"Don't you know? The King of Chefs has already gone on a trip."

"what?"

"Why bother going to Wanmintang? There's a steamed bun shop over there. Let's all buy a few steamed buns, stand here and enjoy the aroma while we eat them, isn't that wonderful?"

"...?"

Inside the shop, Shen He walked into the kitchen and smelled the enticing aroma, unable to resist secretly swallowing his saliva.

Why does the food the boss made tonight smell so much better than usual?

"Boss, I'm back."

"Yes, you're back. Everyone can take the dishes out now and get ready to eat."

"Ok!"

"Boss, my grandma invited us to her house for dinner on Thursday."

"it is good."

I finally received Grandma Ping's birthday invitation.

During the meal, the girls once again experienced the same existential crisis they had felt when they first tasted the food prepared by the owner.

Moreover, this time the feeling was much stronger, and the time spent in a daze was also longer.

It took them a while to recover from the amazing world of taste.

"This is so delicious, boss!"

"good to eat!"

"My body has become inseparable from my boss."

"Me too!"

"Eat as much as you like."

"Uh-huh!"

Diona ate two bowls of rice, which was her maximum amount, and she felt a little full.

She secretly glanced at the others. Senior Zhu Zi was already on her third bowl of rice, Senior Qi Qi was on her second bowl of rice, and Senior Shen He was on his fourth bowl of rice.

As for Akabane-senpai, her stomach seemed to be connected to another dimension. According to Zhu Zi-senpai, since Akabane-senpai joined, there has never been any leftover food in the shop.

And because she's a ghost, she won't get fat no matter how much she eats.

Diona touched her stomach, a hint of worry in her eyes.

The food the boss cooked was so delicious that she couldn't control her appetite. If she continued to eat until she was stuffed every meal, she would definitely turn into a fat cat.

That won't work!

Or, like Senior Zhu Zi, go to the boss for a massage to lose weight?

It's only 800, and it's very comfortable...

But that kind of thing...

Diona sat in the chair, thinking, and her little face turned red.
