"That can be easily arranged. And here I was worried about having to show off my culinary skills to everyone."
Everyone gave out a laugh at her self-deprecating joke and they shook their heads at her, "I would finish anything as long as it was cooked by you."
i pretended to blush, and made them more excited.
The atmosphere of the gathering was gaining montum.
i proceeded to give a smile at Lin Xuan Qi and waved her hand at her servants.
They ca over to her and she said to them, "Get the bottle from Master Lin and ask the chef to do what Master Lin had said accordingly."
One of the servants bowed at Lin Xuan Qi, and he passed her the bottle of Lin Clan Taste Transcendent Essence he had in his hand.
She turned around and got out of the room with the other servants.
i saw that the young masters were getting into the right mood and she said, "While we wait for the food to be prepared, let give you another dance."
The young masters gave out a cheer and she stood in the middle of the room.
Music started to fill the room when the band started playing again.
i’s body started to move gracefully with the beats of the music.
The young masters glanced at her movents while they had one cup of wine after another.
Sima Long felt right at ho with the atmosphere and music.
It had been a long while since he had such a good ti.
The only thing amiss for him was soone coming up with a poem that was fitting for the occasion.
Huo Fei Li also soaked in the atmosphere.
But it wasn’t really sothing that Lin Xuan Qi looked forward to.
He would have rather been in his garden fishing or in his sauna relaxing with Xue Cong and the others.
Lin Xuan Qi couldn’t help but give out a silent sigh.
If only Xue Cong and the others knew what he had to go through for the Clan. He thought silently to himself as i perford a difficult maneuver, raising her feet in the air and arching her back towards the ground.
"Nice!" The young masters cheered when they saw it.
i then began to turn her body in graceful swirls.
The dance went on until the music stopped.
She was breathing faster with sweat on her forehead.
All the young masters gave her another round of cheers, after which they picked up their wine cups and gave her another toast.
"Co and take a rest first." Young master Heng said and i nodded her head at him.
She walked over to where he was seated and sat beside him.
Knock.
Soone knocked at the door and opened it.
The servants were back with dishes in their hands.
"Ah. Just in ti." The young masters stretched out their necks to have a look at the dishes.
But they raised an eyebrow when they saw that the dishes didn’t look any different from the ones they usually had.
They glanced at Lin Xuan Qi with so doubts but kept quiet.
There was no need for that, as they could find out whether the Lin Clan Taste Transcendent Essence was as good as Lin Xuan Qi had said very soon.
It didn’t take too long for the servants to place the dishes in front of everyone.
One of the young masters didn’t wait and picked up his chopsticks.
And he put a mouthful of the braised beef into his mouth.
The others looked on and waited for his reaction.
"Ah!" The young master opened his mouth and shouted.
That made the others cautious.
They started to think about whether to fake it for the sake of Huo Fei Li if the food was awful with the Lin Clan Taste Transcendent Essence.
It would be impolite for them to do so if they were to show how the food tasted honestly.
But it might not be sothing that was easily done if the food was really that bad. They thought to themselves while they glanced at the young master with his mouth open.
"Ah... It’s too hot." The young master blew out air from his mouth trying to cool the beef he had inside his mouth.
The others twitched their eyebrows when they saw what it was about.
They wanted to cuss at him but stopped when the young master finally got to munching on the beef.
He closed his eyes while he did so and had an expression of enjoynt on his face.
The beef was tender and seasoned well like it always was.
But on top of that, there was sothing else that made it much more savory.
It wasn’t sothing that was sweet, sour, bitter or salty.
It was sothing beyond that.
And that made him want more of the braised beef.
After he swallowed the braised beef inside his mouth, the young master proceeded to pick up more of it with his chopsticks.
"So, how is it?"
"Stop and say sothing."
"Is it really that good?"
So of the young masters weren’t too sure and they tried to get him to answer but were ignored.
Those who were smarter had started to dig into the food.
It was obvious to them that it was good.
"What the hell... This is so good!" One of them exclaid with excitent and pointed at the braised beef with his chopsticks.
The braised beef tasted much better than it used to.
"Oh my, you are right..."
"Hey, that’s mine!"
"You’ve been staring at it for so long I thought you didn’t want it."
They began to wolf down whatever they had in front of them.
So of them even snatching food from others who were slower than they were.
In comparison, young master Heng was much more graceful and was fed by i, taking one bite at a ti without hurry.
He was satisfied with what he had in his mouth.
Young master Heng glanced at the door and gave out a sigh.
Qian Shi should be here to witness it, he thought.
