Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

With a blank expression, Li Xingyu put down the small white porcelain spoon in her hand and leaned against the edge of the bowl, her heart filled with despair.

What is she expecting?

Why does this nutritious porridge still taste so awful?

Ok……

But it was indeed a tiny bit better than before, just a tiny bit. Well, it was much better, but that still couldn't change the fact that Li Xingyu disliked it.

After all, she had never tasted the combination of strawberry, green pepper and shredded pork, and bitter melon before, and the texture had changed from lotus root starch to something that tasted like lotus root starch mixed with tofu particles.

Hmm... it's... hard to judge...

Li Xingyu always adhered to the principle that these vastly different flavors could coexist in her stomach, except for bitter melon, but they could not coexist in her mouth. This was her principle and bottom line.

The claim that the nutritional paste has improved is that it no longer has that foul or rancid smell. Indeed, so-called improvements are always relative.

If Li Xingyu hadn't tried the nutritional porridge before, this taste would have been like a nightmare for her.

However, Li Xingyu now feels that the taste is not so unacceptable. If it weren't bitter, it would be even better.

With a complicated expression, Li Xingyu pushed the nutritious porridge in front of her a little further away, then took out a candied hawthorn she had made yesterday from her storage space and took a bite with some haste.

"Phew~" With a sigh of relief, Li Xingyu happily chewed on the sweet and delicious candied hawthorn, as if she had come back to life.

Let whoever wants to eat this nutritious porridge eat it; she's not going to eat it, so she shouldn't have any curiosity or expectation about this food.

Li Xingyu chewed on a candied hawthorn with a satisfied look on her face, leaning back in the wide chair.

She hadn't considered improving the recipe or taste of the nutritional paste, since it was an item that had been tested over a considerable period of time, and Li Xingyu didn't believe she had the ability to directly change it.

Li Xingyu had a general idea of ​​the identities of Toriman Zhou and Li Qingyue. The ingredients of the nutrient paste and nutrient solution were extracted from plants and animals rich in energy.

Because its main purpose is to meet all the energy needs of the human body in a day, when nutritional paste was first developed, the most attention was paid to its energy content index.

As for the taste of the nutritional paste, hmm...

"Little Feather, do you still not like the nutritious porridge?" Qin Fengshi looked at Li Xingyu's actions and understood that she didn't want to eat it.

Qin Fengshi had actually been paying attention to Li Xingyu and observing her reaction. Now it seemed she was completely disappointed with the nutritional paste.

Shaking his head, Qin Fengshi was about to bring the nutritious porridge in front of Li Xingyu to his side. If she didn't like it, he would eat it. He couldn't waste food, could he?

Before Qin Fengshi could even raise his hand, he saw Xinghe, on the other side of Li Xingyu, extend a fair, strong, and well-defined hand, and place the nutritious porridge in front of Li Xingyu in front of himself.

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, his gaze sweeping over Li Xingyu, Xinghe, Tian Shu, and Li Yue. Then he noticed Tian Shu and Li Yue's hands moving stealthily.

Judging from their route and direction, they were probably also heading to get the nutritious porridge in front of Li Xingyu, but they weren't as fast as Xinghe.

Looking at Li Xingyu, who was obliviously munching on a candied hawthorn, Qin Fengshi was both amused and exasperated: 'Little Feather, why don't you at least look at the table? When is it time to not use your eyesight?'

As if hearing Qin Feng's words, Li Xingyu, who had been staring blankly at the ceiling opposite her, suddenly lowered her gaze to the table in front of her: "Huh? Did I put it in the wrong place just now? Why is my nutritional paste in front of Xinghe?"

Li Xingyu's voice was very soft, and she was mumbling in a low voice. Only Xinghe and Tianshu next to her could hear her.

Upon hearing Li Xingyu's words, Tian Shu swallowed the food in his mouth, then opened his mouth as if to say something, but didn't know what to say. In the end, he lowered his head and continued drinking his nutritious porridge, but focused some of his attention on Li Xingyu and Xinghe.

"Little Feather didn't make a mistake. I just noticed you didn't seem to want this new flavor of nutritious porridge, so I took the liberty of bringing your portion over." Xinghe moved a little closer to Li Xingyu upon hearing her words, lowering her voice as she explained.

"Huh? You're going to help me get rid of this one?" Li Xingyu was a little confused when she heard Xinghe's words.

She hadn't touched the nutritious paste in front of Li Xingyu. She had only licked a little bit of the paste off the spoon before gently placing the spoon on the edge of the bowl.

She did this subconsciously because Li Xingyu was already 80% full. If the nutritious porridge tasted good, she would eat a few more bites. If it didn't taste good, she could give the nutritious porridge she hadn't touched to others.

As it turned out, Li Xingyu's action was very useful, at least avoiding some potentially awkward situations.

For example, right now, if she puts the licked spoon back into the bowl, then this scene...

Tsk, Li Xingyu wouldn't even dare to think about it; it's a situation where he could dig out a magic fairy castle with his toes just by thinking about it.

However, Li Xingyu only thought about it in her mind. After all, Xinghe must have seen her actions before bringing the untouched bowl of nutritious porridge to her.

After all, even ordinary people have a sense of propriety, let alone Xinghe, who has received etiquette training and graduated with a perfect score.

Speaking of this, Li Xingyu's thoughts wandered for a moment: it seems that she did quite well in her beginner etiquette class.

"Hmm, you probably don't like this taste. You don't like bitterness, and even a little bit of bitterness will make you unhappy for half a day." Xinghe freed one hand and ruffled Li Xingyu's hair, smiling with a doting expression.

Although Xinghe and Li Xingyu had never met before, Li Manzhou and the others had the time and direction to learn a lot about each other, including their hobbies.

Actually, the bitterness in the nutritional paste isn't very prominent, but its flavor is quite lingering. Compared to other flavors in the nutritional paste, the bitterness will stay in your mouth for a while.

Li Xingyu's taste buds are more sensitive than the average person's, which is why she doesn't like to eat nutritious porridge or anything bitter. That's why she cooked on her first day here. She needs to save her taste buds.

"Okay, thank you for your help, Xinghe." Li Xingyu naturally rubbed her head against Xinghe's hand, looked at Xinghe, and gave him a slightly bright smile.

"It's no trouble at all, but the taste has indeed been improved a lot. It's just that Little Feather's taste buds are too sensitive; she can taste even the slightest bit of bitterness." Xinghe half-closed her pale blue, almost white eyes, her gentle voice full of pleasure.

"Hmm, compared to last time, it does taste better and the texture is richer. It has a bit of a tofu-like texture. Ah~ it's a bit like drinking soy milk or eating tofu pudding. How about we make tofu this afternoon?" Li Xingyu went off-topic as she spoke.

"Yes, sure. Little Feather, you're talking about the texture of these little particles in the nutritional paste, right? It's really quite good. Are you going to make those bean products you mentioned last time, Little Feather? What do you need? I can prepare them in advance." Xinghe was amused by Li Xingyu's appearance and placed the portion of nutritional paste that was originally Li Xingyu's in front of him in front of her.

She put the spoon that was resting on the rim of her bowl into the bowl she had already finished eating in, while keeping an eye on Li Xingyu as she ate.

"Yes, the things needed are similar to last time. Just prepare the same things I used to make soy milk. But I still need to ask you and Grandpa Foxy to make some tools for pressing tofu." Li Xingyu watched Xinghe calmly eating the nutritious porridge, sighing inwardly while answering Xinghe's question.

We can discuss the clothes tomorrow. Besides, we've already revealed enough information today, so we can reduce the amount tomorrow. There are so many styles of clothes, so let's take it slow and not rush.

But when it comes to food, Li Xingyu is much more proactive. If she says she wants to eat something tonight, she'll make it this afternoon. Of all things, eating is the most important thing.

That's why they say "food is the first necessity of the people."

You can understand some things by looking at the league's actions.

"Ah~ I forgot to do a live stream today? That's perfect, I'll do one this afternoon. The content will be about making a small portion of bean products. If I appear on camera, it will count towards the live stream time, and I can also teach them how to make food. Not bad, not bad, this is killing two birds with one stone." Li Xingyu had already eaten the candied hawthorn. She originally just wanted to use the taste of the candied hawthorn to suppress the bitterness in her mouth. She really can't stand any bitterness.

However, we are still at the dinner table, so it's enough to just have a bite or two of candied hawthorn. No matter how delicious it is, it can't be eaten as a meal. Eating too much would be too unfair to the chefs.

Li Xingyu propped one elbow on the table, supporting her chin, while the other hand played with a smooth, round bamboo skewer, using it as a pen, spinning it between her fingers in a dazzling display.

"Is Little Feather going to livestream making new food again? We can look forward to it, after all, Little Feather's food is very much to our liking." Li Qingyue, who was next to Qin Fengshi, heard what Li Xingyu and Xinghe were saying.

To be honest, Li Manzhou and Li Qingyue improved the taste of the nutrient solution and nutrient paste this time partly because of their own interests and hobbies, and partly because of a commission from the alliance.

Because Li Manzhou and Li Qingyue are quite skilled in nutrient solutions and nutrient pastes, it can be said that these two meal replacement foods were first proposed and made by the two of them.

Moreover, they were the first and most exposed to the natural foods restored by Li Xingyu, making them the perfect candidates to handle the tasks of improving the flavor of the nutrient solution and nutrient paste.

Although he is retired, he can still take on tasks from the league. In the past, it was for some benefits and work requirements, but now it is purely out of interest.

Li Qingyue and Li Xingyu were standing close by, and she could hear everything Li Xingyu and Xinghe said except for the first sentence. She was filled with anticipation when she heard that Li Xingyu wanted to make new food.

In fact, Li Manzhou and Li Qingyue both felt that neither the nutrient solution nor the nutrient paste tasted as good as the natural food restored by Li Xingyu. After eating the natural food restored by Li Xingyu, they did not want to go back to eating the nutrient solution and nutrient paste.

Thinking of this, Li Qingyue sighed softly: However, the soldiers who were on the front line of fighting against the alien beasts could only watch videos or replays of natural food during their occasional rest. They did not have the conditions or time to make natural food, and even nutritious porridge rarely appeared in front of them.

'Sigh~ If it weren't for how pitiful those kids were, they wouldn't really have wanted to take on such a troublesome task as improving the flavors. They've been spending less time with Xiao Yumo and the others lately. But they've all succeeded. All they need to do is submit the data and methods to the alliance.' Li Qingyue sighed inwardly and turned her gaze back to Li Xingyu and the others.

"Yes, yes, it's the tofu and douhua I mentioned when I made soy milk last time. It's really delicious! Douhua comes in sweet, salty, spicy, and sour varieties... Tofu can be used in many delicious dishes, such as pan-frying, stewing in soup, deep-frying... It also tastes great when paired with other foods." Li Xingyu looked at the expectant crowd and tempted them with a smile.

It's impossible for Li Xingyu not to have noticed how busy Li Manzhou and the others have been lately. He really had no idea what they were so busy with, but now it seems…

"It must be that the alliance and the front lines are pressed for time and want to taste these dishes, so they gave the task to Great-Grandma and Grandma. Ah~ Although I'm a little unhappy, I still approve of Great-Grandma and Grandma's actions." Li Xingyu glanced at the nutritious porridge on the table and sighed.

She's a tech-addicted girl who keeps up with current events, and she's read a lot of novels and watch a lot of TV dramas, so it's easy for her to deduce these things.

"When will we start making it? Is there anything we can do to help? We've been busy improving the nutrient solution and nutrient paste lately, so we haven't had much time to spend with you little feathers," Delas's elegant and kind voice rang out.

Li Xingyu looked in the direction of the voice and saw Delas with a mournful expression. Ryan, Rice, and Hiffel next to him couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Li Xingyu's grandfathers had previously helped Li Qingyue with experiments on nutrient solutions and nutrient pastes. After all, they trusted and were familiar with their own people and had a good working relationship with them. They had all taken courses specifically on experiments, and now they were assisting her. For them, it was just returning to their old ways.

But they've all retired, and the league isn't short of people. Why give them tasks? If it weren't for those poor kids watching videos and replays every week, they wouldn't accept these stupid tasks.
