two
Now you know that you cannot be willful, right? Don't worry, Yining has been busy preparing for exams recently, but will come to help once they are over. Huali Kong, seeing my worried expression, offered some words of encouragement
There wasn't even a single person to attend to the guests in the curry restaurant, so of course there were no guests. " Huali Kong glanced at me with disdain and said
In addition to the five basic tastes of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and salty, what new flavors can be developed?
Just as I was running out of breath, with my hands on my hips and unable to stop panting, the "Heavenly Dog" finally came to a halt. He surveyed the surroundings, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he slowly walked towards me
Ahem, what I mean is that I don't want to not go, which actually means I want to go. I could only speak contrary to my true feelings.
Hey! Stop right there! I reached out my hand and just managed to grasp the hem of "Tian Gou"'s clothing
Really ... ... really? I have decided to ask clearly, to avoid him regretting it later.
Yining
"Tomorrow? Tomorrow is Sunday. How about we take a day off?" I looked at Hualikong with bright eyes, hoping he would nod in agreement
This is a temporary solution I previously thought of to alleviate his taste issues; otherwise, it would be difficult for Huali Kong to eat, which would affect his work performance
Then you tell Yining
Oh? L'Oréal Art School? It turns out he is still a student. What does a student need a business card for, really
"That... that... I didn't see..." I answered somewhat sheepishly. After all, ever since my crystal bell developed a crack, my ability to explore memories has been significantly restricted
In theory, even if his sense of taste cannot be restored immediately, it should not worsen.
Is that so? I put on a bitter melon face
Ah! Upon seeing me catch up, the "Tengu" had a look of deep surprise on his face, "I never expected you to run faster than them..."
Hua Li Kong gazed at me, rendered speechless.
I have never been good at sports, and after chasing him for less than two minutes, I was already out of breath
I am not worried about being unable to find a solution immediately Therefore, it is also good to seek another breakthrough simultaneously
I have finally managed to take a day off, and he actually wants me to dedicate this precious time of rest to that person who takes advantage of free meals
As I was simply running, I unexpectedly realized that I was not fighting alone, for suddenly a group of girls rushed ahead of me from behind, and one of the girls, overwhelmed with excitement, forcefully bumped me aside.
What is going on? Why are there so few customers today?
Thinking of this, I had a sudden inspiration and said: "Hua Li Kong, how about I specially make you a serving of curry rice?"
"Stop right there! Stop! You despicable person, how dare you dine and dash! If you want to run away, pay up first!"
As soon as I stepped into the curry restaurant, I saw Huali Kong busily working at the cooking station, wearing an apron.
It turns out that my assumption was incorrect; Huali Kong indeed thought that I had poured sweet sauce over the curry rice. However, after just one bite, he changed color dramatically and rushed to the kitchen counter to rinse his mouth frantically, looking extremely uncomfortable
Hua Li Kong was taken aback and asked softly, "You wouldn't want to target me as well, would you?"
Hmm? Huali Kong stared at me with wide, unblinking eyes
The key is still to find the remaining four guests... Once I complete this matter that my father repeatedly urged me to take care of before he left, I will be able to attend school smoothly, after all, this is a significant issue concerning our family, even though our family is truly not thriving in terms of offspring
Having spent some time with Hualikong, I am not unaware that he only eats dishes drizzled with honey and sweet sauce. Although I still find it somewhat bitter, it is much better than it was before.
Please give me your signature! Please give me your signature!
That's great! I jumped up with joy
My ears have suffered greatly; the sight of a girl going wild is truly terrifying
Hua Li Kong actually agreed
It is rare for me to be wise; Hua Li Kong, you need not overthink it
Hmph
No one wanted to raise the issue of the flower glass, only focused on the vegetables in their hands, murmuring: "If we don't return soon, all the guests will leave."
Is this ultimately a good thing or a bad thing? If Huali Kong's sense of taste is cured, he might not have any reason to continue staying at the curry restaurant
When he smiles, he reveals two rows of neat and white teeth, and his eyes slightly squint, making him look very handsome and charming
What should I do now? I feel like my mind is in a complete mess
Upon hearing the excited shouts of the girls behind him calling out "Tengu," he ran even faster
"You... how do you know?" I looked at Hualikong in surprise, only to see a hint of an inexplicable smile on his face, as if he knew everything.
Then... alright
Then you pay! I directly extended my right hand
Speaking of this, it is indeed somewhat unusual
Nonsense! Before he could finish speaking, I interrupted him in an aggressive manner
Having said that, I ignored him and went to busy myself at the kitchen counter
"You wouldn't have added a lot of chili oil to his curry rice, would you?" Huāli Kōng leaned down and gently asked in my ear
"Nonsense! I won't let you enjoy my exclusive curry rice for free," I said indignantly
Guests can taste various strange flavors. Although it can sometimes be a bit troublesome, it is also a good thing for you, as it allows you to find the remaining guests more quickly, those who can distinguish different types of curry rice flavors, and help them solve their problems. This not only satisfies your needs but also enhances the reputation of the curry restaurant. If others speak negatively about your curry restaurant, would you still want to find the remaining four guests? This not only satisfies your needs but also enhances the reputation of the curry restaurant. If others speak negatively about your curry restaurant, would you still want to find the remaining four guests? Even if you do not wish to find the remaining four guests, we have signed an agreement, and you must restore my sense of taste. Previously, you told me that only by finding these guests could my sense of taste be restored, so even if you do not want to look for them, you must do so." Huali Kong said seriously.
Are you alright? I walked over to Huali Kong, feeling a bit embarrassed, and patted his shoulder as I asked.
The attempt to collect the meal payment was unsuccessful, so I could only return to the curry restaurant dejectedly
My ears were burning, and I said discontentedly: "You are the one with the enchanting charm."
The "Tengu" had an expression as if I had insulted his noble character
Is it not more than this? Hua Li Kong seemed to see through my nervousness and embarrassment, and with a single sentence, she pierced through my facade
His expression changed from bewilderment to extreme surprise, and after a long pause, he finally asked, "You can't possibly have followed me this far just over the cost of a meal, can you?"
I didn't even pay attention to the guests who had just stepped into the curry house, and I rushed straight towards the back door
"Alright, I had anticipated it would be like this." Huali Kong expressed no blame at all, merely asking me to develop a new flavor of curry rice
However, there is no girl who provided me with reference suggestions
Those girls were excitedly running wildly down the street, and to my surprise, they were also shouting at the "Tengu" that was running not far ahead, although I couldn't quite hear what they were yelling.
Meal money! My meal money!
Hmph, I will not kindly offer a free meal to someone who appears glamorous on the outside but is actually trying every means to dine and dash.
Boss, one order of sweet curry
Oh? Isn't that the school on Ye Hu's business card
It seems to be the case
"Eat up, I have poured some sweet sauce on it," I said somewhat uneasily
But I don't want to... I stammered.
What a familiar name
"By the way, what was the reaction of that person who dined and dashed after finishing the curry rice?" Huali Kong seemed to recall something and approached the kitchen counter to ask me.
Ah? No way? I'm a bit confused
Of course. Hua Li Kong nodded seriously and said, "It just so happens that Yi Ning can come to help watch the store tomorrow"
Unfortunately, the skirt has already been wrinkled and battered, and it is even somewhat dirty
After thinking for a while, I have identified the most suitable candidate in my mind
Are you alright? Seeing me drenched in sweat and gasping for breath, "Tiangou" kindly took off his sunglasses and asked
If only Yining could come to help when he has time I sighed
I was stunned
Oh. I replied with my head down, and then I hurried upstairs with a thud thud thud.
Thus, we once again commenced the pursuit between the two of us
Oh dear, didn't I just add a bit more seasoning to his curry rice? It was added without charge, after all I mumbled somewhat sheepishly
Good
Huali Kong, you said I am just someone who runs a curry restaurant. If customers taste something unpleasant, it cannot be blamed on me; that is their own psychological issue
"So, have you discovered the reason why he tasted such a sweet flavor?" Hua Li Kong casually inquired
Damn! It seems that I have encountered a master in the world of dining and dashing today, but I will not give up.
It is simply unexpectedly smooth
I watched as he slowly opened his wallet, and before I could react, he glanced behind me and surprisingly employed the same trick again, turning his head and continuing to sprint forward.
Hello
I murmured, it seems that Huali Kong is not in a good mood today
Why did you suddenly run out just now? What were you doing?
Chi Weiwei, you say just how much of a failure you are, as a girl, you don't even have a dress that you can wear out
I turned the room upside down and finally pulled out a pink fitted princess dress from under the bed, which had not been cleaned for what felt like an eternity. I had almost forgotten about the existence of this dress
I felt as if my legs were about to give out, so I limped along the street until I found a place to sit down
There is no way, Huali Kong has already changed his tactics, using his gaze to force me to submit
Why do you always expose others like this
Alas, speaking of this brings a subtle sense of sadness to me
"Alright, how could the taste issue that has troubled me for so many years be resolved so easily? There's no need to rush; after you have dealt with the issues of those five special guests, it would be fine to help me then." Seeing that I seemed somewhat unhappy, Huali smiled and reached out to tousle my hair, gently comforting me.
Alright
"Every time I mention this, I get angry. Today, I encountered a customer who dined and dashed. Not only did they refuse to pay, but they also threw a torn business card at me, claiming to be a student from some prestigious academy. Can you believe a student from a noble academy would actually skip out on paying for a meal?" I said irritably. This is the first time in all my years running the curry restaurant that I've come across a customer who dined and dashed.
The corners of my mouth twitched slightly; this guy truly possesses an extraordinary ability, managing to offend so many girls. Being chased down the street is indeed quite embarrassing
"What are you daydreaming about? Do you have time tomorrow?" Huali Kong, seeing me lost in thought, casually inquired.
Are you unwilling? This time, Huali Kong no longer adopted a direct approach to educate me, but instead gazed at me sincerely, seeking my opinion
After all, I am someone who does not need to take exams, which indeed makes me seem somewhat unconventional among my peers
It has been proven that Huali Kong made this decision with great determination
Well, I must admit you are clever... you actually guessed it right.
"It is settled then, tomorrow we will go to the Laia Noble Academy, let’s just consider it a trip for fun," Hua Li Kong said with a faint smile.
Indeed, I clearly gave him a mildly spicy curry rice, yet he tasted sweetness. As I spoke, I lowered my head somewhat sheepishly
Oh? Didn't you have something to take care of today? Why are you back?
Who dined and dashed? It's just the cost of a meal, do I look like someone who can't afford to pay for a meal?
I shouted indiscriminately on the street without regard for my image, completely unaware that for the sake of a meal, my appearance was quite embarrassing
As the group of frenzied girls was about to catch up, "Tiangou" hurriedly pulled out something resembling a business card from his pocket
When I placed the secret curry rice in front of Huali Kong, his Adam's apple moved slightly
L'Oreal Noble Academy
I have overstepped my bounds
"Did you not say that I could only regain my sense of taste after gathering those five special guests and resolving their issues?" Hua Likong seemed somewhat perplexed
Go find that person who dined and dashed, and see what the situation is. Hua Li Kong looked at me and replied earnestly
"Where is it! Wasn't it agreed that you would treat my sense of taste?" I pouted and muttered in dissatisfaction
What do you think? Given your personality, it is quite normal for you to do something like this, isn't it?" Huali Kong said with a mischievous smile, "Looking at your mouth, so red and swollen, it seems that in the end, you didn't manage to deal with that person who dined and dashed, but instead ended up giving yourself a hard time, right?"
I just noticed that at this time, there should be the most customers, but there are hardly any patrons in the curry restaurant now
"Just give it. " He pulled out a black leather wallet from his pocket
Yet his eyes clearly conveyed: You must go
Why not go out shopping for one
Whenever I think of that person who dined and dashed, I feel a bit downcast
However, I cannot be too selfish; I still need to work hard to restore Huali Kong's sense of taste. During this period, the effort he has put into running the curry restaurant has far exceeded mine.
I apologize, dear guest, but I am currently very busy. Please feel free to prepare your own meal at the cooking station over there. Thank you.
I was only gone for a few hours, and the curry restaurant suddenly had an issue with someone dining and dashing. Huali Kong put down the utensils in her hand, walked up to me with a smile, and said, "Chi Weiwei, don't you think you possess some kind of special charm?"
"What are we going there for?" I looked at Hualikong with some confusion
I knew that Huali Kong would ask this question
Brother, don't run away!
On the bustling streets, the "Tengu" dodged wave after wave of crowds, moving swiftly beneath its feet, recklessly sprinting forward.
"Ahem, Chi Weiwei, why do I feel like my symptoms are getting worse?" Huali Kong furrowed her brows and looked at me
However, I must get the meal money back!
Well
Thus, I felt as if I had been injected with adrenaline, almost sprinting at a hundred-meter dash speed, rushing to the front of that terrifying group of girls, running towards the shadow ahead
So this guy is called Ye Hu, huh? That name is indeed quite unique
Here you go! Goodbye! He turned back, stuffed the business card into my hand, and then displayed his remarkable running skills, turning a corner at the intersection, and then he disappeared
I really like you! I am completely in love with you!
Who knows what the situation is, I was clearly about to die from the spiciness, yet that person actually thought it was my technique that was the problem, even saying that the curry rice I made was incredibly awful, wanting to smash the sign of my curry restaurant, fortunately at that time there was only him in the curry restaurant
Thus, I took the opportunity to sneak out of the curry restaurant while Huali was busy.
I opened my palm and saw an exquisite golden business card, at the very center of which were printed two large characters: Night Arc
Tomorrow, let us go to the Laia Noble Academy, as I have heard that it is a gathering place for outstanding art students
In fact, there was no sweet sauce poured over the curry rice made for Hualikong, yet I still told him that sweet sauce had been added. I thought to myself, what if Hualikong could only taste the strange bitterness due to his psychological barrier
You... you... you glutton! I said through gritted teeth, my face burning, having just run too hard.
