The people in the kitchen were all busy with their tasks, but as soon as Ling Zhenfei finished the first dish, they all gathered around.
"Why does it sll so good? What is it?"
"It should be lotus root. I've seen it before in the market when I was with Xia Shan."
"This thing slls so good! It's completely different from the dish you made just now."
"Yeah, the color is nice too. Who is this person? Is he a chef hired from sowhere?"
Ling Zhenfei didn't have ti to pay attention to their discussions. He found soone to help him, and the two carried the dish out together.
As Ling Zhenfei and his helper brought the dish out, everyone who was eating turned to look in their direction.
"What is that? It slls so good!"
"Yeah, is it a new dish? How co I didn't know about it?"
Ling Zhenfei placed the dish on the table and said to Jiang Wen, "These are the simplest dishes. I'm not sure if there are any dietary restrictions on your mountain, so they are all vegetarian."
Jiang Wen laughed and said, "That's fine, it's good enough. We don't have any restrictions on the mountain, and we can do with vegetarian dishes if there's no at."
Looking at the dishes on the table, Jiang Wen was truly delighted, practically drooling.
Murong Liuqing also showed a surprised expression because the look and aroma of the dish were so astonishing even before tasting it.
Just from a glance and a sniff, one could tell the dish was extraordinary. For so reason, the sll made her want to try it.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't be shy. They're just so simple dishes, give them a try."
Jiang Wen had long been eager to try. He picked up his chopsticks and said, "Then I won't be shy."
He began eating, trying to act calm but his excitent was obvious.
Murong Liuqing also gently picked up a piece of lotus root with her chopsticks, looked at it, and then put it in her mouth.
Her expression instantly froze. Apparently, she had never eaten anything so delicious.
She chewed slowly, then picked up a piece of cauliflower and put it in her mouth.
Trying hard to maintain her composure, but she couldn't really stay calm.
This had surpassed her expectations. She always thought food was just food, maybe soone could do a bit better than their mountain chef, but not by much.
But Ling Zhenfei, in just a short ti, prepared dishes not only beautifully colored but as soon as they touched her taste buds, it was extrely delicious.
Perhaps her taste buds had been suppressed for too long, and now after tasting sothing good, she couldn't hold back.
Although she wasn't fighting for food, once she took the first bite, her chopsticks never stopped.
A few other diners extended their necks long, trying to see what was so fragrant.
"Chef Senior Brother, co here."
Soone called the restaurant manager over.
Chef Senior Brother walked over, actually, he was also a cultivator on the mountain. Because eating on the mountain required little money, one could say this restaurant was a property of Wuliang Immortal Palace.
"Senior Brother, why did you call ?"
The person said, "Senior Brother, what dish are Murong Senior Sister and the others eating? Can we also have a few plates of the sa?"
Chef Senior Brother felt quite awkward after hearing this. He knew from the start when Ling Zhenfei borrowed the kitchen, but he didn't expect the dishes to be this delicious. Even he wanted to taste so.
"Sorry, Senior Brother, those dishes were personally made by a Guest Elder who just ca down the mountain. If you want to eat them, you'll have to ask him for help."
Everyone was taken aback. No wonder they hadn't seen these dishes or slled this aroma before; they weren't from the restaurant.
Ling Zhenfei didn't care about these things and said to Jiang Wen and Murong Liuqing, "Don't just eat, have sothing to drink too."
At that mont, Murong Liuqing focused on what was in front of her.
The Ziling Fruit Juice was served in a wine glass, which Ling Zhenfei had brought himself.
The juice of Ziling Fruit is red, and it would be a waste to put it in their mountain cups, so Ling Zhenfei used a wine glass.
Jiang Wen took a sip from his cup, and Murong Liuqing also picked up her cup, cautiously looked at it, then gently took a sip by her lips.
The sweet and sour taste of Ziling Fruit was sothing else. She had tried many fruits on the mountain, but this was her first ti tasting Ziling Fruit Juice, and the wonderful taste stunned her.
As she was savoring the taste, she suddenly heard Jiang Wen sigh, "Brother Ling, you're unfair, clearly there's sothing better to drink and you give this."
Murong Liuqing was shocked. She had just decided the Ziling Fruit Juice was the best thing she ever drank, but then Jiang Wen ntioned there was sothing even better, which she couldn't believe.
The Ziling Fruit Juice was already extrely good, what would taste even better?
Ling Zhenfei smiled and said, "It's not that I won't let you drink it, but good things are better enjoyed in the right setting. Next ti, I promise to let you try it."
For so reason, when Ling Zhenfei said he would invite Jiang Wen next ti, Murong Liuqing felt a little lost.
But she didn't show her feelings on her face, rely picked up the wine glass and took another sip of Ziling Fruit Juice.
At this mont, two more people ca over, smiling and speaking to Murong Liuqing and Jiang Wen, "Aren't these Senior Brother Jiang from the Affairs Office and Senior Sister Murong from the Discipline Court? Can we join you?"
These few people had been looking over, hearing that the restaurant didn't have those dishes, so they wanted to join in because the aroma was just too tempting.
"Get lost!"
Murong Liuqing uttered a single word, very clearly.
The group was stunned, but everyone knew Murong Liuqing's fierce reputation, and no one dared to provoke her.
Murong Liuqing was famous as an ice-cold beauty, known not only for her looks but also her unpredictable temper.
Today, they were polite enough, but for so reason, Murong Liuqing was displeased and directly drove them away.
Jiang Wen truly sympathized with those people, but Ling Zhenfei was a bit shocked by Murong Liuqing's temper.
By now, most of the food on the table was gone.
Jiang Wen said to Ling Zhenfei, "Brother Ling, since you just arrived today, take a rest first. We'll discuss related matters tomorrow."
Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "Okay, but I have sothing I'd like to ask."
Jiang Wen said, "Ask whatever you want."
