Chapter 1448 - 1532: Try My Cooking
Dong Huiying sliced the meat, then looked around. The restaurant’s kitchen usually had pre-washed and pre-prepped vegetables.
She grabbed a bunch of bok choy and continued to chop, then picked up a handful of golden needle mushrooms to prepare, followed by some bright red little chili peppers, and then the other ingredients.
The way she busied herself was dizzying to watch.
As the ingredients gradually landed in the pot, Chef Cheng’s nose twitched. She could already tell what dish ’Da Bao’ intended to make.
Water-boiled beef!
"Alright, try my skills!" The cooked meat slices were covered with spicy red oil, which looked like it could spice someone up to the skies, but also greatly stimulated the appetite.
A big full bowl.
Zhang Er was already drooling uncontrollably, frequently swallowing his saliva. Chef Cheng, on the other hand, was more reserved, but... although the taste was unknown, just the smell and sight of it greatly increased the appetite.
Chef Cheng glanced at Dong Huiying, thinking that this Da Bao really was something. Just from the appearance alone, this water-boiled beef looked better than the one she made!
Chef Cheng picked up the chopsticks and brought a moderately thick slice of meat into her mouth, instantly unleashing a burst of spicy oil flavor, as if one were amid a volcano, within the gushing lava. Remarkably, this extreme spiciness did not overshadow the meaty flavor, with the taste of the meat rich and extraordinarily layered.
Chef Cheng’s mouth was filled with spicy and meaty flavors, her face reddening as if about to smoke, mainly from the spiciness, but it was too delicious as well, making one feel like they wanted to swallow their own tongue with it!
Dong Huiying giggled foolishly. Inside, she calmly thought about how she had once, out of kindness, accidentally let some secrets slip in front of that scoundrel. The scoundrel knew that she was well-versed in the art of Gu Poison, and those proficient in this field usually had some medical skill knowledge. Thus, she absolutely could not let her skills in Gu Poison and medical skill be exposed, primarily to ensure nothing went wrong and prevent the enemy from tracing her back.
However, cooking skills? The scoundrel didn’t know she was versed in cooking, and she had disguised her figure, appearance, and personality. With her current look, no one could associate her with the previous captive.
Ha, you pervert!
You think that by having people watch the city gates, you can catch me like a turtle in a jar?
Dream on, hahaha!
Without a doubt, ’Da Bao’s’ cooking skills were astonishingly explosive, and Chef Cheng hired her on the spot.
Dong Huiying brazenly asked, "So, head chef? Do we have room and board here? I just came from my hometown, and my money is almost depleted. I don’t even have a place to stay!"
Well, it seems she not only referred to herself with ’me,’ but she also had this playful local accent.
Listening to it was inexplicably funny.
"The room Helper Lin used to stay in is now vacant, so you can live there. It’s already late today, so get familiar with the surroundings and sort out some bedding or the like. Come to work early tomorrow morning."
"Alright!"
And just like that, Dong Huiying became a kitchen helper at a Food As Heaven branch, while at the same time, the Hidden Guard was still searching the city, and Qinghe was on his way to this city.
The next day.
The restaurant provided room and board, so Dong Huiying spent all her remaining Silver Taels on buying herbs. When purchasing, she claimed she was a cook and needed the herbs for medicinal dishes.
She was very foresighted because shortly after, the Hidden Guard connected the dots to Dong Huiying’s injuries and began thoroughly investigating these herb shops, as well as the identities of those who had bought medicines for wounds.
