Everyone’s gaze followed the voice, and landed on a young man in the corner.
That was a strapping young who looked about 20 years old. He had a straight nose, a handsome face, and a head of thick blond hair. He was wearing mixed golden-and-silver-colored soft armor. There was a longsword that had a sapphire on its hilt placed next to his hand. He looked like he should be a young knight.
He’s so handsome! The young ladies at the side already had stars in their eyes. A rich, handsome, and capable man was alway irresistible.
People were looking at this young man who decided to be the first to try ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ with curiosity. He could be the one to test if this soup was worthy of its price.
“Alright, please give us a moment.” Mag nodded slightly. He was also rather surprised that the first helping of ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ was ordered so soon, but this young man looked like he had a full head of hair, so why was he so excited when he heard that it could encourage hair growth?
Adams put his hand down and tried to make his expression look nonchalant, but the hand that was tapping on his thigh revealed the excitement in his heart.
He was indeed excited. A storm was already brewing in his heart when he heard that hair was growing on the bald guy’s head after he ate ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’.
Some people looked very good on the outside, but in fact, they didn’t even have a single strand of hair.
Very unfortunately, Adams was someone like that.
Hereditary-pattern baldness made him begin to lose his hair at the age of 14. On his 18th birthday, the very last patch of hair that was looped three times around his head left him too. That became the darkest day of his life.
He already had to undertake the pressure that he shouldn’t be undertaking at that young age.
He was born in a rich merchant family. As a rich second-generation heir, he was also a rather gifted knight. He was already a 3rd-tier knight before he was 18 years old.
But after the last patch of hair had fallen, his power was stuck. There wasn’t any improvement for the past two years.
He could feel that he only needed a little more to burst through the bottleneck, but that thin fragile layer was blocking him out, making him unable to progress.
The genius who had once been looked up to became a joke.
He believed the pressure that he was under for the past two years could make him lose another head full of hair if he still had it.
Baldness wasn’t an illness; hence, even the best doctors and magic casters were not able to make his hair regrow.
Although this blond wig could make him look as attractive as he was before, it couldn’t ease the inferiority in his heart and the envy he had for those who had a full head of hair.
Furthermore, he had a vague premonition—if his hair could not grow out, his power would never advance, either.
The three-year agreement that he had with his father would be due tomorrow. If he still couldn’t break through successfully, he had to go home to succeed the family fortune of billions.
Just that thought alone made him shudder.
Who would be able to imagine this kind of pain?
Lying in the limelight of his forebears and living lazily like a maggot. He couldn’t imagine leading such a life.

Therefore, when he heard Amy’s words, he was so excited that he almost jumped up. There really was something that could make hair grow again!
He could be considered as Mamy Restaurant’s regular. After he was brought here by a friend to try out the grilled fish and beer, he had established the habit of eating his three meals at the restaurant every day. He also believed the cute Little Boss’s words.
If it was indeed effective, it wouldn’t matter that it cost 10,000 copper coins. Even if it cost 100,000 copper coins or 1,000,000 copper coins, he wouldn’t even blink!
10,000 copper coins for a bowl. It is equivalent to the entire day’s profit of one shop. Should I try it out? Harrison, who was sitting across Adams, was caught in a dilemma.
The other customers were all waiting for the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ that Adams ordered to be served curiously. Although the majority of them wouldn’t have spent 10,000 copper coins on a bowl of soup, they were still very curious.
Mag flipped open the lotus leaf and scooped out the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ into a bowl. He passed that to Yabemiya.
Yabemiya walked out of the kitchen with the tray very carefully. She took every step with extra caution. This was 10,000 copper coins. Even a little bit that was spilled would cost hundreds of copper coins.
The rich aroma of meat floated by and spread into the restaurant.
Everybody’s eyes lit up. This aroma was exactly the same as the one they had smelled earlier. But as it was closer now, it smelled even richer. There was the freshness of seafood, richness of meat, and all sorts of different aromas mixed together. Yet, they all had their individual characteristics, which was extremely tantalizing.
All their gazes couldn’t help but follow the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ as it moved across the restaurant.
Yabemiya placed the black terracotta bowl gently in front of Adams with a smile, and said, “Your ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’.”
Even though she wasn’t worried that the delicacy that Boss made could be unsalable, she liked this first customer who was willing to be the first to try. Every popular item had to start from the first person who was daring enough to try it out.
“Thank you,” Adams said. His gaze was totally attracted by the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ in front of him.
The aroma washed over him together with the hot steam. It went into his nose and also his heart.
Besides the aroma of all the different ingredients, there seemed to be a hint of wine fragrance that was different from the beer and red wine. But, that unique alcohol aroma made one feel like immersing in it.
There were many other ingredients in the soup. They were either floating or hidden within the thick soup. Every one of them was different.
Smells so good. It seems 100 times more delicious than I have imagined. I wish it could really make my hair grow again! There was surprise in Adams’ eyes. He immediately picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful, and fed it to his mouth.
“This taste!”
Adams’ eyes flicked open instantly. The thick soup glided into his mouth, and dozens of tastes seemed to have exploded in his mouth at the same time. The taste buds on his tongue were quickly immersed into a revelry.
He believed he wasn’t a man with sensitive taste. However, in that one mouthful of soup, he could make out the tastes of 10-odd different ingredients like chicken, abalone, pig’s stomach… It brought a rich sense of layering and made one enthralled.
“Gulp.”
After swallowing that mouthful of soup, a slight tingling feeling began to spread to his limbs and organs before it started to ascend all the way from the bottom of his feet to the top of his head.
He could clearly sense as if numerous ants were crawling on his scalp under that wig, like something was wiggling out from under his scalp. The numb and tingling sensation made him want to put off the wig and burn it.
What an intense sensation. Is the hair really going to grow out?! Adams felt ecstatic. He picked up the spoon and fed himself another spoonful of soup. The tingling on his scalp was getting stronger and stronger. It wasn’t an unbearable sensation. After he was used to it, it began to resemble a pair of hands massaging his scalp gently, and every touch was pressed upon the most comfortable acupuncture points. It was so comfortable that he almost shouted out.
“Slap.”
Right at this moment, Adams suddenly heard a soft sound coming from his body.
