Chapter 387: The Glowing Porridge

“Huhuhu, so merciless. You’re not a man!”Zhao Liangying looked at the slow tortoise in her hands and felt sad all of a sudden. She started crying out of the blue and felt incredibly aggrieved.

She had never been so distressed in her entire life.

Ye Lingchen was rather speechless. He was chided for not being a man if he did not fight her but was accused of the same even though he won a fight against her. That woman was really hard to please.

However, he touched his nose and felt somewhat guilty.

His gambling skills were simply too good, almost to the point of being integrated into his bones. Although he did not shuffle or cut the cards, he could quickly draw whatever cards he required from the deck, with complete imperceptibility. Furthermore, he could identify the cards in Xiao Feifei’s and Zhao Liangying’s hands without even needing to rack his brains.

For him, it had become instinctive, and it was improper to use it to bully a little girl.

Zhao Liangying’s cry immediately attracted everyone’s attention, but when they saw the tortoises painted on her and Xiao Feifei’s faces, many were unable to resist laughing out loud. It was a truly miserable situation for both of them.

At the same time, they secretly raised Ye Lingchen to the status of an extremely dangerous person. Young Master Ye was incredibly formidable and no matter what happened, they should never play cards with him in the future.

At that moment, however, an unstoppable scent wafted through the air, shocking everyone at once.

“What’s that delicious smell?”

“F*ck, it’s too fragrant!”

“Wow, how can something smell so good?!”

The answer was obvious. Everyone already had their eyes set on the pot of porridge. They watched it gurgling in the heat and their saliva had overflowed from the corners of their mouths.

“This porridge is too fragrant!”

Chen Chichi raised his hand and could not help himself from opening the lid, but Ye Lingchen smacked his hand away.

“It’s not time yet. We have to wait!” Ye Lingchen glanced at Chen Chichi lightly.

Chen Chichi cowered. “Young Master Ye, I really can’t hold back anymore. Can you give me the first bowl on consideration of all my hard work? It’s too tempting!”

He licked his tongue after he said that as if he wanted to gobble up the entire pot.

“Don’t worry, you’ll have your share.” Ye Lingchen said with a smile.

At that moment, Zhao Liangying stopped crying and looked tearfully at the pot of porridge in front of her. Her little nose twitched constantly.

It was so fragrant, and she really could not figure out how Ye Lingchen could cook such a fragrant porridge.

Despite that fragrance, she felt a little uneasy in her heart. Could she eat that porridge? Would it be able to stifle her anorexic nausea?

“It is done!”

Three simple words caused everyone’s eyes to brighten up, like a cat that caught a whiff of fish. In a flash, everyone grabbed bowls and chopsticks, waiting for a feast that would come at any time.

The doubts that were earlier present in everyone’s hearts disappeared completely without a trace. What happened to the porridge? It was explosively fragrant!

The instant Ye Lingchen lifted the lid, a crisp sound—accompanied by a rising mist—instantly enveloped everyone.

The aroma was much stronger than before, and everyone’s eyes immediately became red. Gulping sounds were heard constantly.

Woo—it was really fragrant.

At that moment, everyone’s entire body began shaking slightly, as if all their cells were jumping for joy.

“F*ck, this porridge is glowing!”

Li Tai yelled and his pupils expanded like he had seen something incredible.

Gasp!

Everyone inhaled sharply and was equally as surprised.

Glowing food was probably seen only in anime, right? To think that it appeared right in front of their eyes!

At that point, the sky was already dark, making the porridge look extremely eye-catching.

It was still bubbling in the pot because the stove was still on. With bubbles coming out, the thick porridge-y liquid seemed to be alive and flowing in the pot. The rice grains in the porridge were distinctly separated amongst the liquid, which was crystal clear, white, and translucent. Other than the pieces of fish, there were also some green vegetables dotting it.

What could be considered a perfect color and fragrance?

That could be considered perfect color and fragrance!

Unsure whether it was an illusion, but a careful inspection of the porridge in the pot made it seem like the rice grains and the liquid were like glowing stars reflected in the ocean, lighting up the entire pot.

“Today’s dinner is prepared for Zhao Liangying, so this first bowl will be given to her.” Ye Lingchen served a bowl to Zhao Liangying, and the rest of the people would never say anything about it anyway. Stunned slightly by that gesture, Zhao Liangying raised her hand to take it and let out a muffled hum, giving her a humane quality.

However, she did not eat it directly, firstly because it was hot, and secondly because she was a little apprehensive.

Although the smell whetted her appetite, it was one thing to have an appetite and another to actually put in her mouth. She might not be able to swallow it due to nausea, and that was precisely the tormenting horrors of being anorexic.

The second bowl was given to Chen Chichi.

Chen Chichi was incredibly overjoyed. “Thank you, Young Master Ye.”

After he said that, he did not care about whether the food was hot or not and immediately took a sip. The next moment, his face reddened at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

“Too… It’s too delicious!”

He wanted to jump up and was smacking his mouth constantly.

After that one bite, he could not believe the taste in his mouth. The rich porridge aroma accompanied by the taste of fish instantly filled his mouth. It teased the tip of his tongue continuously and made him want to groan.

Moreover, the porridge looked hot, but it cooled down after being put in his mouth. After one bite, his entire person felt like it was soaked in a hot spring, with his body becoming all warm and fuzzy.

It was hard to imagine that porridge could be cooked to such heights!

That was no ordinary porridge—that was clearly a divine porridge!

Although he has yet to become famous, he did not think of himself as a bumpkin, especially when it came to his passion for food. He had eaten countless delicacies before, but all of them paled in comparison to that porridge.

“Young Master Ye, your porridge is more delicious than our afternoon meal!” Chen Chichi took another spoon when he finished speaking, then sighed with satisfaction. It was extremely invigorating.

Blessed!

His reaction made everyone look forward to it even more. One by one, they stared at the casserole.

Next, Ye Lingchen distributed the porridge to everyone. Each person got one bowl—no more, no less.

“Chen Chichi, a person must be calm. Watch how I taste the porridge.” Lu Xiaobu said cryptically. His throat moved uncontrollably after he looked at the porridge in his hand, and he felt stimulated by the fragrance. His desire for that porridge reached its limit, but he resisted it and took a sip in a gentlemanly manner.

However, his whole body was shocked by that mouthful and his eyes suddenly brightened.

“Gulp, gulp—”

He could not help it anymore. He held up the bowl like he was drinking water and poured it directly into his mouth. In just a few blinks of an eye, his bowl of porridge had already emptied.

Later, he began to lick the bowl frantically with his outstretched tongue, with tears slipping silently from the corner of his eyes as he licked.

“Huhuhu, so… so delicious. Too delicious! I’ve got no regrets in this life!”
