Seeing that Chu Beiqing was absent at the feast, Little Xinzhuo was a bit puzzled.
"It seems I haven’t seen Uncle Chu, Sister, where is Uncle Chu?"
"He’s ill and still recovering."
Xin Lin brushed it off casually, but her gaze at Long Jin carried deeper aning.
Chu Beiqing and Long Jin were hardly acquaintances; the latter was clearly probing.
Yet his face showed genuine concern.
Kids of the Heavenly Family are indeed extraordinary, understanding how to conceal their feelings at such a young age.
Xin Lin was more curious about what kind of trick Consort Zhao had up her sleeve.
Did she truly want to reform herself, or was there another motive?
The School Clinic hadn’t been this lively in ages.
Master Mo pushed two tables together, and everyone gathered around, either standing or sitting.
The large pot of "Wushan Grilled Fish" was placed at the center of the table.
Nearby were other dishes like sugar lotus root, vinegar cabbage from Chu’s Restaurant, Combat Lobster turned into sashimi, braised Black Fish—enough to fill the entire table.
Yet the crowd’s favorite was undoubtedly the "Wushan Grilled Fish" made from Rainbow Dragon Trout.
The Rainbow Dragon Trout was just as Xin Lin imagined; the flesh was extrely fresh and tender, with no bones except the main spine.
With a flick of the chopsticks, the crispy, delicious fish skin was paper-thin, releasing steam.
The fish at was smooth and tender, lting in the mouth with the texture of jelly, the delicious fish flavor enhanced by chopped scallions and crushed peppers, with no fishy taste.
In a matter of monts, everyone had eaten more than half of the fish, each bidding farewell to a piece.
Who would have thought that this Rainbow Dragon Trout was a dominator in the water, swallowing nurous fierce Xuan Spirit Beasts?
Everyone exclaid how delicious it was.
Xin Lin felt a twinge of pain inside as she watched.
This Wushan Grilled Fish was a dish she copied from modern recipes, hoping to gain so Heaven-defying Value, given it was, after all, Rainbow Dragon Trout.
Yet little did she know that the Heaven-defying Book had beco shrewd.
It swiftly decided that Xin Lin’s recipe was rely a Three-star Spirit Cuisine, stingily awarding her only 20 Heaven-defying Value.
Moreover, since this Wushan Grilled Fish was for the family feast, the evaluation Heaven-defying Value ended up nullified.
"This fish is so sweet and savory, what kind of fish is this? I’ve never tasted such delicious fish in my life."
"This fish is only found in heaven; rare to behold on earth."
"Not only is the fish at tasty, but I also feel a warm current in my body, as if True Qi is rising swiftly from my soles."
"My Spiritual Energy seems to be overflowing, feeling like it’s about to burst forth. This grilled fish is even more effective than Bone Marrow Cleansing dicine."
The group ate and chatted, unanimously agreeing that this mystical Wushan Grilled Fish was extraordinarily delicious.
Seeing the fish almost gone, Xin Lin sensed sothing amiss.
She scratched her head, unable to pinpoint the issue, and casually picked up a large piece of fish, placing it in Little Xinzhuo’s bowl.
The crowd behaved like reincarnated Evil Ghosts, fighting for their share while Little Xinzhuo’s short stature and slow chopsticks left him with only a few bites of fish, especially with Master Mo - a non-martial artist with surprisingly nimble chopsticks, managing to devour three pieces for each of others’ one.
As the fish was nearly devoured, Long Jin sat to the side, urgently desiring to reach out to grab another piece multiple tis.
