Chapter 287: 287. Tasty Morsel

“Yue’er.” Chen Wentian gave a light chuckle, “I hope to hear you say that more often in the future.”

“Master… you’re so mean.” She pouted but it just made her look cuter.

Her outfit certainly helped. The design was more intricate and elegant than what they had at home. It was formal and yet sexy at the same time. It accentuated her best features in an inexplicable way. He didn’t know how a mere uniform could have such an effect but the owner of the restaurant certainly knew a man’s taste.

“How much revenue are you short by for the challenge?” He asked.

“Master, since the lunch service was a bit disastrous, the amount will be sizable.” She replied.

“Don’t worry about it, whatever is required, I will spend it.”

“Mmm.” She nodded happily and explained the situation once more.

The challenge of The King’s Laundry was for the rankers to help its business over a period of a week. They could contribute in several ways, including helping to improve the menu, draw more customers, or help those that came to spend more money. It seemed like an innocuous challenge at first and Su Yue had been very excited because she had a simmering interest in spiritual food and cooking.

However, she didn’t have a lot of experience since Chen Wentian did not specialize in the area of cultivation that dealt with food. It was certainly a valid Dao and many practiced it. It allowed one to inject their spiritual energy and understanding into the process of turning raw food into cooked versions. The process was able to extract more spiritual energy out of the material than if cooked normally. There were also secret recipes where certain combinations and cooking processes could turn a dish into something akin to raw spiritual crystals. There were even ones that contained special attributes that could help improve a person’s comprehension towards a certain Dao or inject their bodies with special properties.

Like any Dao, the possibilities were endless and mysteries only grew and grew as one progressed and increased their cultivation. Su Yue was a complete beginner and so she was kicked out of the kitchen and relegated to serving the customers.

This was where the challenge took a turn for the worse. Being a waitress and serving customers also required skills that she didn’t have. It needed her to smile and flatter guests, even rude ones. It needed an ability to absorb harassment and not let it affect their service. It was all in all a terrible task and one that completely inappropriate for the top one hundred of the Immortal Sect Competition.

“They said we would be able to taste the fancy dishes free of charge but we only got a few tidbits at the beginning.” Su Yue complained, “After that, we were only given simple food. Most of the customers are unreasonable, dirty men. I was always given them instead of the other waitresses. It was completely unfair but I couldn’t say anything… Master, I don’t care about this challenge anymore. It would be better if we didn’t give them any money!”

Chen Wentian understood her feelings but he had a different view. “Yue’er, I am determined to spend money tonight. I have the means to easily earn more. I won’t let you be bullied for free. I am determined to win this golden feather.”

“Even over five hundred thousand taels of gold?” She asked tentatively.

“Even a million gold is not a problem!” He laughed, “Now, tell me about this menu and how I can spend that much.”

“Hehe! Okay!”

She brought over the menu and began describing the dishes.

“Oh, this one very popular, it costs one thousand taels for one plate… This one is market price which is five thousand taels for one pot… The five-century venerable ice wine is fourteen thousand taels for one bottle!”

Chen Wentian nodded and went along with her suggestions. When they were finished, he had ordered over half of the items on the menu. The total came out over three hundred thousand taels but not quite the target she needed.

“This is only the first order. I will order more later.” He said and dropped three kilograms of red spiritual crystal in her hands and slapped her butt, “Go! Look confident!”

Su Yue pouted at him but her eyes were smiling brightly.

She got up and left the room to put in this massive order. The restaurant had many employees, not just chefs and waitresses. There were cook assistants as well as servers that helped carry food as well as those that took orders down to the kitchen.

She only had to drop off the order and the money and everything would be taken care of after that. She was solely responsible for entertaining guests in her private room.

She returned to Chen Wentian and in a few minutes; the first appetizer arrived. She stepped outside briefly and returned carrying a tray containing two crystal goblets with something colorful inside.

“Master, this is the Hurricane Flying Salmon Tartare Cornet. It is made from Flying Salmon that is caught within the eye of devastating coastal hurricanes. This dish is infused with dual attributes of wind and rain. Plus, it is very tasty.”

“Mmm, good!”

She placed both goblets and a pair of pure gold spoons on the table. She then sat down and scooted up next to Chen Wentian, who didn’t hesitate to wrap a hand around her waist.

“Master, please try it!” She said, waiting for him.

He grinned but didn’t take up a spoon. “Yue’er, I suddenly seem to have lost strength in my arms, I need your help, can you help me?”

She blushed but nodded. She scooped out a bit of the salmon tartare and held it out close to his lips. He opened his mouth, expecting her to feed him, but nothing happened. He glanced over to find the spoon and its contents had entered her own mouth.

She toyed with him!

“Hey!” He complained, “I want!”

She giggled and scooped up some more. He opened his mouth again expectantly. He could smell the spicy and sweet fragrance of the tartare but it disappeared as quickly as it arrived.

“Hehe!” Su Yue giggled uncontrollably.

She had once again stolen his morsel of food. The audacity!

“You minx.” He muttered.

He tipped her chin up to look into her mirthful eyes. He leaned in.

“Mmmm…”

He savored the taste of the dish on her lips. It was salty, spicy, and sweet. Her mouth opened obediently and his tongue darted in, savoring her flavor that mixed with the dish that he had paid an exorbitant amount for.

They broke apart a few moments later. His eyes playful, hers unfocused and wanting more. He grabbed the spoon and finally got a taste of the dish for himself. It was smooth, savory, the taste was excellent. It wasn’t useful for his cultivation at all but he had to admit the chef-owner of this establishment had skill.

He wanted to take another bite but before he could do so, Su Yue cupped his face and sought his lips once more.
