The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 419 - 416: Ghost Soldiers, Exposed Crisis
This customer, who booked the entire Taoyao Pavilion and spent a fortune, is surprisingly young.
Master Ji was secretly shocked.
But he quickly regained his composure.
Was Boss Mu asking if the Spiritual Food was prepared by one person alone?
Of course, dozens of tables of Spiritual Food wouldn’t be completed by a single person. Boss Mu’s question was obviously concerning the other kitchen assistants.
The boss also mentioned that he was very satisfied with tonight’s Spiritual Food.
However, the last dish, the Fire Emperor Auspicious Soup, was clearly not yet completed.
"I am the head chef, and there are several assistant chefs helping me; it’s a great honor that Boss Mu is satisfied," Master Ji responded, forcing a smile and laughing it off.
Boss Mu did not pursue further.
Master Ji returned to the dining area.
"Wait, is there any Fire Emperor Auspicious Soup left?"
Master Ji stopped several servers who had just finished clearing up.
"Most of the Spiritual Food has been eaten, but yes, there is one table that still has a small bowl of Fire Emperor Soup left."
With a frown and a troubled expression, a server brought out a bowl of Fire Emperor Soup.
In the Spiritual Food Restaurant, leftover Spiritual Food is usually kept in the dining area. At banquets, the servers often discreetly share it among themselves—this has become an unspoken rule at the Spiritual Food Restaurant. What is going on with Master Ji today?
The Fire Emperor Soup had been the most popular soup of the evening and was not supposed to have any leftovers.
This one bowl was left over in a fit of rage by Master Chen from De Yue Building.
Master Ji did not mind; he took a sip of the Fire Emperor Soup, and just one sip changed his expression. He stood still, staring intently at the soup in the bowl.
Inside the private room of Taoyao Pavilion reserved by Boss Mu.
Boss Mu held a small black dagger in his hand.
This little dagger was something that Boss Mu found in the Fire Emperor Auspicious Soup.
Xin Lin, while preparing the Four-star Spiritual Cuisine, used some of the meat and blood of a Fire Toad to compensate for the loss of Fire Toad Ginseng, unknowingly allowing a ghost soldier’s blade to end up in the Fire Emperor Soup.
By a twist of fate, it ended up in the hands of Boss Mu.
"A ghost soldier’s blade, it seems I’ve really found it. Now, let’s see where he can hide."
A calculating expression, belying his young age, appeared on Boss Mu’s face.
Between his fingers, a wisp of dark essence swirled, and the black dagger disappeared.
Dawn was breaking.
After being startled last night, Xin Lin returned to the Chu Mansion, drank a bottle of Jade Pure Spring, and immediately went to sleep.
In her dreams, in a daze, she thought she heard the crying of the Overlord Egg.
Thinking of the Overlord Egg, Xin Lin remembered that she hadn’t seen the creature for several days.
She turned over and smelled a fragrance.
Last night, upset about the Fire Emperor Soup, Xin Lin had been too upset to eat. Early in the morning, smelling the fragrance, her nose twitched, and she quickly got up.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw her silly father sitting happily by her bed.
He was shrinking back, cradling a greasy paper package, patiently waiting on the side.
The fragrance was coming from the greasy paper package in her silly father’s hands.
"Daughter... my dear... eat...eat"
As soon as the silly father saw Xin Lin awake, he grinned and pushed the greasy paper package towards her.
"Oh my goodness, I wondered where my meat buns had gone, it turns out you, silly, took them."
Suddenly, the door was pushed open from behind.
As Ma Jingtian entered, he saw Xin Lin opening the greasy paper package.
Inside the package, neatly arranged, were five large pork-stuffed cabbage buns made with fine white flour, exuding a meaty aroma and oozing juices, garnished with scallions, each the size of a fist—immediately stimulating one’s appetite.
