Jinx ignored Bai Yu and turned her head away like a child throwing a tantrum. Bai Yu smiled and walked towards the kitchen, saying, "Then I'll make it for you~ Do you want something sweet?"

"Do I look like an immature little girl?! I want spicy food! And alcohol!"

"No alcohol, please. As for spicy food... I understand. Just wait patiently."

Jinx gritted her teeth as she watched Bai Yu enter the kitchen before tiptoeing toward the counter, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't lift her "friends".

"Huh? What's going on? He really is a magician!"

"Of course I'm not a magician!"

"Huh? Ugh! Ha! What is that?"

Jinx turned her head as soon as she heard Bai Yu's voice, but then she couldn't see anything. She only felt something warm envelop her face. When she could see again, she saw Bai Yu holding a damp towel that had been soaked in warm water, saying, "Hmm~ You still look cute after drying yourself off~"

"Enough! Don't say that word again!"

Bai Yu tossed her a towel and said, "Wipe your hands~ Oh, and here's this too, a customer left it here, you can take a good look at yourself later~"

"What is this? A mirror? What are you going to do with this? To start a fire? Or to cut the rope?"

"What are you thinking about? This is to make you take a better look at your own face. Now go back and sit down. You won't be able to take these weapons before dawn."

"We're friends!"

"Weapons~"

"You... Hmph! You bastard cook..."

Chapter 75 Jinx Eating Spicy Hot Pot (Please Subscribe~)

Bai Yu went inside to prepare the meal, while Jinx sat on a chair, idly swinging her braids. For her, getting hurt was acceptable, but boredom was absolutely unacceptable! It would make her feel like she was going crazy!

"What a jerk of a cook... but way more interesting than Ike~" (Ike: Are you kidding me?)

"Ugh, so boring~"

Although Jinx always says she's crazy, she's actually quite normal most of the time. She just enjoys causing chaos and having fun with it.

Jinx glanced upstairs, wanting to go up and take a look, but thinking about Bai Yu's ability to instantly take all her weapons, she didn't want to risk going up. If she saw something she shouldn't have, she'd have nowhere to die—that was her experience from surviving since childhood.

Jinx propped her cheek up with one hand and idly swung her braid with the other, glancing at the doorway every now and then with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

Time passed by, and the store remained quiet. Just as Jinx was about to fall asleep, she heard the sound of something being thrown into the oil, which instantly woke her up.

"Hmm? What's that sound? Hey? What's that smell? It smells so good!"

Jinx was certain she had never smelled anything like it before. Even a nobleman's banquet couldn't evoke this feeling in her. She, who wasn't hungry at first, suddenly felt a little hungry.

The aroma grew stronger, and Jinx felt increasingly hungry. In the end, Jinx couldn't help but tap her feet on the ground; she was getting impatient.

"That damn cook is actually pretty good, what did he make... why is he so slow!"

Just as Jinx was finally getting impatient to go inside, Bai Yu pushed a food cart out and placed a large bowl in front of her.

Jinx glanced down at the various ingredients she didn't recognize. The only ones she could identify were sausages and meat. She didn't know anything else. There were meatballs of various shapes, and most importantly, there were things that looked like grass inside.

Just as Jinx smelled the enticing aroma and was about to pick up a piece with her fork, she heard Bai Yu say, "Wait a minute~ This dish still needs one last step~"

"Just one last step?"

"Yes, that's the soul of this dish."

Bai Yu's words startled Jinx. A dish with a soul?! That sounds amazing! Jinx held a fork in one hand and braced her other hand on the edge of the table, looking expectantly at the two small bowls that were brought out from the kitchen.

Just as Jinx was wondering what was going on, she saw Bai Yu grab a handful of something from a bowl and sprinkle it on the dish. Jinx was slightly taken aback when she saw the small white dots that appeared on the dish. Before she could say anything, she saw Bai Yu throw in a small handful of something that looked more like grass.

Jinx swallowed hard as she looked at the dish, which had become even more appealing and vibrant, and said, "Chef, what did you sprinkle in there? It smells amazing!"

"You said it smelled delicious, so what do you think the vegetable you just sprinkled in should be called?"

"coriander?"

"Isn't that pretty clever?"

Jinx said irritably, "Hey! I'm crazy! Not stupid! But it's actually a very reasonable naming method, much more reliable than the names those scientists in Piltover came up with~ Where's this little dot?"

"Sesame~"

"Well then~ this is rice. Judging from your expression, you'd better skip the alcohol and have a soft drink instead~ Of course, with this kind of food, soda is more suitable~ So enjoy your meal~"

Jinx stared blankly at Bai Yu as he left, then tapped her finger on a small, bubbly black drink. The cool sensation on her fingertips sobered her up considerably. (Ahem~ Iced cola, so cute!)

But he quickly put aside the idea of ​​figuring out what kind of drink it was and turned to stare at the brightly colored dish that was emitting aroma and heat.

Jinx didn't know what those dumplings were, so she chose the one she recognized for her first bite: a bright red sausage.

When the fork was used to pick up the sausage, a distinct piercing sound was heard. Jinx glanced at the sausage, whose casing had turned slightly white from being stir-fried, and a hint of anticipation flashed in her eyes. She took a bite, and her pupils suddenly contracted.

Crispy, fragrant, hot, and spicy – ​​that's the first impression. The stir-fried sausage is so thoroughly cooked that the meat inside is perfectly cooked. The meat's own oil is not greasy at all, but rather fragrant – a unique aroma only sausages can have. The slightly charred casing from the stir-frying process adds a touch of crispness to the first bite.

For some things, just a little bit is enough to bring a pleasant surprise. Sausage is one such thing. If it's overcooked, it will burn. Only the casing is slightly crispy, which not only doesn't have the opposite effect, but also enhances the taste and brings an excellent taste experience.

Jinx exclaimed to Bai Yu with delight, "Chef! What's this dish called? It's spicy and delicious!"

"This is something that everyone, from kids to adults, loves to eat—it's called Mala Xiang Guo (Spicy Stir-Fry)!"

"Spicy stir-fry? I don't know what that is, but this looks amazing!"

"Then eat more! But you can't eat the chili peppers or the shrimp heads!"

I don't know if Jinx heard me or not, she was too busy eating. Often, the most popular dishes are not the expensive ones, but those with unique charm. Spicy hot pot with a bowl of fragrant rice is a perfect combination.

Some things are meant to go together: spicy hot pot with rice, barbecue with beer, sukiyaki with raw eggs, and so on. These things seem to be a perfect match from the start. You might ask, can you eat it without them? Yes, you can, but it just feels like something is missing, and it's not quite perfect.

Jinx seemed to be enjoying her meal. As she ate, her little feet kept dangling under the table, and she would occasionally cheer with delight when she found something she liked.

"Phew...water...that's it..."

Jinx seemed to have accidentally eaten a bite of chili pepper, and her tongue immediately felt the spiciness. Her fair face turned slightly red from the spiciness, and she quickly looked for water. It was then that she noticed the black drink that Bai Yu had brought her.

cuckoo...

"Wow! What is this thing? It feels so good!"

Bai Yu sipped his black tea and said with a smile, "This is cola~ Of course you have to drink iced cola with spicy hot pot~ Not bad, right~"

Jinx nodded like a chick pecking at rice and said with a smile, "Hmm! This thing called cola tastes great! Are you really a chef or a magician?"

"If I were a magician, I would have captured you and used you for magical experiments long ago!"

Jinx snorted and continued eating her food at the storefront. Watching her occasionally place her hands on either side of her cheeks, chewing with obvious enjoyment, she shook her head with a smile. She really was a rebellious yet adorable girl!

Chapter 76 The Overly Sociable Girl (Please Subscribe~)

Jinx swears that this was absolutely the healthiest, most satisfying, and most delicious meal she had ever eaten, especially considering that she lives in a place where the water quality is questionable, let alone such delicious food.

Jinx has successfully proven that girls' stomachs are disproportionate to their figures. Despite being very slender, Jinx can actually eat a huge bowl of spicy hot pot and a bowl of rice.

Bai Yu looked at Jinx, who had her hand resting on her flat stomach without any undulations, and shook his head with a smile. At this moment, Jinx had one hand on her stomach and the other hand hanging down on the side of the chair. She was slumped on the stool and occasionally hummed.

Although Jinx calls herself crazy, she's actually quite cute. Bai Yu looked at her and smiled, saying, "Are you full? How are you feeling?"

Jinx raised her arm, which had been hanging by the side of the chair, to wave at Bai Yu before letting it fall to the side again. Jinx didn't want to talk to anyone or do anything right now; she just wanted to lie there like this. She had no worldly desires left.

Bai Yu smiled and shook his head, then went back to the kitchen to get Jinx a glass of dark brown water. He came out and placed it in front of her, saying, "I knew you'd like this, so I prepared it for you beforehand~ Try it~"

Jinx looked up at Bai Yu, then at the drink beside her, picked it up, and gulped it down. Bai Yu was stunned. Do girls really have two stomachs?

"Hoo~ Ha~ What's this? Flat cola? But this sweet and sour taste is a bit different from what you'd call cola~"

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Of course it's different~ This is plum juice~ It's for your digestion~ I added some dried tangerine peel to it, which can help with digestion, enhance the flavor, and also help calm you down~"

Jinx glanced at Bai Yu, then continued to slump there. After a while, she whispered, "Cook, you're the first person to treat me like this."

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Didn't you say that I was the first person who would listen to you quietly?"

"You're a weirdo. Someone like you is definitely not suited to live in Zaun. You'll get robbed clean!"

"So you're saying you're living quite well over there?"

Jinx got really excited about this and sat up abruptly, saying, "You're absolutely right! Whether it's Zaun or Piltover, there's no place where no one doesn't know the name Jinx! Apart from the cops, nobody dares to mess with me!"

After Jinx finished speaking, her face clearly said, "Praise me already!" Bai Yu smiled and said, "Pretty impressive~"

Jinx laughed and said, "Of course!"

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, I could live even in Zaun, which you mentioned."

"Huh? Why? Hmm~ that makes sense~ your skills will drive those guys away!"

Bai Yu looked at Jinx and said, "I think you'll protect me~"

"Me? Protect you? You even took my gun! You're the one protecting me!"

"But you can make them stop causing me trouble."

After thinking for a moment, Jinx said, "Of course, no problem! Wait a minute! Why should I help you, you bastard cook! You even stole my gun!"

Bai Yu said naturally, "Because there's no friend you can't make over a meal~"

"Friends?! Are you kidding me? I don't want to be friends with you!"

Bai Yu said with a smile, "Haven't you noticed that our current way of communicating is just like how friends communicate?"

Jinx paused, then thought about it. She realized she'd never really spoken to anyone like that before, and talking to Bai Yu wasn't unpleasant at all. Aside from the fact that he'd taken her gun, which bothered her, things seemed actually quite nice...

Jinx quickly shook her head and said, "I'm just in a good mood!"

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Alright~ So, Miss Jinx, if you're in a good mood, would you mind chatting with me for a bit? I'm actually a little bored anyway~"

Jinx asked in confusion, "What do I have to say to you? What should I say?"

"Anything is fine~ including your sabotage~ After all, this kind of thing isn't very common here~ By the way, tell me why you were being chased this time~"

Jinx got excited as she spoke, laughing, "You know how to talk! This time I really made those Piltover cops green with rage! That woman Caitlyn chased me for blocks! And that idiot Vi was completely fooled by me! I even blew up her motorcycle! Hahaha!"

Seeing Jinx suddenly become excited, Bai Yu chose to listen quietly from the side. Jinx's words were not exaggerated at all, which was exciting but also dangerous. However, seeing Jinx's excited appearance, Bai Yu also found it quite interesting.

It turns out that having something to do makes time pass much faster than doing nothing. With Jinx around, Bai Yu had more fun, and time flew by.

Bai Yu wasn't just listening; Jinx would also ask him questions from time to time. Jinx clearly hadn't realized that she and Bai Yu had actually talked so much! And she would even quietly listen to someone tell their story!

Just as Bai Yu and Jinx were taking turns talking, the door suddenly opened, and a pink-haired girl peeked in.

Bai Yu said with a smile, "You can prepare to lose now, Jinx."

"Hmph! Impossible!"

Bai Yu smiled but didn't say anything. He then addressed the girl at the door, "Welcome! Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

The girl paused for a moment, then looked around the room and exclaimed in realization, "Oh~ so this is a night restaurant~ are you the manager? That's amazing! You're so young and already a manager!"

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment. Do you need to rest for a while or would you like something to eat?"

After the girl came in, found a seat, and sat down, she asked, "Isn't there a menu here?"

"No, we have all the ingredients here to make whatever you want to eat~"

The girl nodded and said, "Wow, that's amazing! Let me think... I'd like fried rice! As for what kind of fried rice... you can decide, manager!"

Bai Yu nodded and said, "Okay~ Please wait a moment, what would you like to drink?"

"Iced orange juice!"

"That's a good choice~ Please wait a moment~"

As Bai Yu spoke, he walked into the kitchen. The girl smiled and nodded at the spacious and clean shop, then fixed her gaze on Jinx.

As a girl from Zaun, how could Jinx not sense that someone was watching her? Jinx turned her head and looked at the girl, saying, "What are you going to do?"

The girl's eyes lit up and she exclaimed, "Wow! What a cool girl!"

"what?"

Jinx was stunned... she didn't know what to say...
