I'm the Culinary God-Chapter 587 - 281: The Mapo Chicken Cake that’s even more delicious than Mapo Tofu! Come on, serve the meal! [Subscribe please]_2
So satisfying!
After gobbling down a rabbit head, Lin Xu took a sip of water, the delicious taste still lingering. Just as he was about to grab another, he saw Shu Yun approaching the entrance.
"Are you really packing them up?"
"Head Chef Dai insisted; I couldn’t refuse."
"Was Manager Chen talking about rabbit heads just now?"
"Yes, besides rabbit heads, there are also goose gizzards, sheep’s feet, and other such things. He’d packed a whole big box of them."
Lin Xu filled a takeaway box with a few rabbit heads, then walked to the door and handed it to Shu Yun, who was secretly gulping, "It’s best to eat these with disposable gloves, or your hands will be burning. I was just about to go wash mine."
Shu Yun pulled a pair of individually wrapped disposable gloves from her pocket, "I got them ready when I came upstairs."
After taking the meal box, the beautiful general manager trotted over to a booth, ready to enjoy the delicious food.
However, the thought of eating them directly made her feel a bit uneasy. So, she found an old photo of herself washing tomatoes in her phone’s album and posted it to her social media, "Starting today, I’m eating tomatoes to lose fat!"
After posting, the mental block finally disappeared.
Gloves on, time to eat!
In the kitchen, Lin Xu glanced at the packed rabbit heads. It had seemed like a lot when he was packing them, but if everyone just tried one, they’d likely be gone in a single round.
To prevent Shen Jiayue from missing out after work, he picked up a large takeaway box. He filled it with a few rabbit heads and other braised items, along with a cup of Sour Plum Soup and some other snacks.
Then he packed the bag neatly and used his phone to request a courier service.
Since there was a chance the rabbit heads wouldn’t last until the end of the workday, he decided to arrange a Chinese-style afternoon tea for his own good, cute, and beautiful Baobao during her work hours.
It was also a chance for her to taste the braising skills from Building No. 18 at the Fishing Platform.
And to give her a little surprise.
After a courier accepted the order, Lin Xu handed the packed meal box to a passing server, asking her to take it to the service desk on the first floor.
He then washed his hands and began to prepare dishes according to the order sheet.
「On the other side.」
In the Dongming Building on the West Third Ring road.
Shen Jiayue was sitting at her desk, headphones on, intently watching an online tutorial on how to make Milk Yellow Mooncakes.
Hmph, if you won’t let me learn, then I’ll just make them secretly. Just wait until I make those mooncakes and make your jaw drop, Xu Baobao!
She focused with the same intensity she used when studying for her College English Test Level 4, continuously writing and sketching in her notebook, recording the ingredient ratios and baking times for the Milk Yellow Mooncakes.
Just as she was engrossed, a shout came from the doorway, "Shen Jiayue, your delivery!"
Huh? What’s going on?
Shen Baobao took off her headphones. Confirming that the courier at the door was indeed calling for her, she hurried over.
At this hour... what would a courier be bringing me?
When she reached the door and saw the neatly packed bag, her heart leaped with joy. That way of tying the knot—wasn’t it exactly how Xu Baobao packed food?
Could it be food inside?
Back at her seat, Shen Jiayue quickly opened the tightly sealed packaging bag.
"Yueyue, didn’t you just come back from Lin Ji’s? Did Boss Lin make you something delicious again?"
Many of her colleagues had officially become "Lin Ji boys" and "Lin Ji girls."
Seeing Shen Jiayue unpacking a bag from Lin Ji’s Food, they couldn’t help but tease her.
"I don’t know! It’s so strange. He hasn’t sent me food recently, and besides, he isn’t at the store today. He went to the Fishing Platform to learn about dipping sauces..."
As she was speaking, the package opened.
She took out the contents one by one. Only then did everyone see that it was a large box of braised dishes, a drink, and two types of snacks.
Inside, there was also a little note written on a slip of kitchen paper:
"Brought over some food from Building No. 18. See if you like it. If you do, I’ll find a way to practice making it. I’ll make sure you can have it every day. I didn’t get you the ’first cup of milk tea of autumn’ back at the Start of Autumn, so today I’m sending you the ’first rabbit head of autumn.’ There’s another new surprise after work too, muah."
Looking at the word "muah," Shen Baobao couldn’t help but laugh, "No one uses that term anymore, you silly Xu Baobao! Just wait until I’m off work; I’ll kiss you until you cry!"
She took out an Hermès wallet from her bag and was about to stuff the note deep inside it when she suddenly thought, I should show this off! My Xu Baobao’s handwriting is so beautiful; it deserves some praise, right?
Under her colleagues’ envious gazes, she placed the note on top of the food items, took a picture, and immediately posted it to her social media, "While others are already on their 99th autumn milk tea, my Xu Baobao is only just remembering this. Love you! Wish I could fly to your side right now and throw myself into your arms."
After posting, Shen Baobao tucked the note into her wallet like a treasure, then said to her colleagues, "Come on, everyone, sharing is caring! These are braised delicacies from Building No. 18 at the Fishing Platform. Give them a try. If they’re good, I’ll have Xu Baobao add them to the menu at Lin Ji!"
She no longer cared what the rabbit heads tasted like.
The emotion and love conveyed by that note were far more important than any braised delicacies.
While everyone was sharing and eating the braised snacks, she secretly pulled out the note to look at it again.
There’s another new surprise after work... What could it be? I’m so excited!
「In the Huixuan Building.」
Chen Yan sat in front of her computer, enjoying a delicious rabbit head and watching "Your Name" play on her 32-inch 4K monitor.
As she was getting really into the movie, she wiped her hands, picked up her phone, and planned to share her interpretations and feelings about the film on her social media.
However, as soon as she opened the app, she saw Shen Baobao’s post.
