The sudden disappearance of the aroma startled everyone. Bai Yu pushed the food cart out and, seeing their excited expressions, smiled and shook his head, saying, "It really is youth! Fukami, your dish needs to simmer for a while longer. As for your two dishes, the steps are simpler, so there's no need to rush. Have some drinks first!"

The three nodded, looking at the brightly colored dish in Bai Yu's hands with anticipation. They were also eager to try what the drink with cactus would taste like.

After putting down the drinks, Bai Yu walked over to Lucifer and Cerberus, patted Cerberus's head, and said, "Just wait patiently~ Dinner will be ready soon~"

"Mmmmmmm!"

"So, Lucifer, you... wait, why are you wearing a suit?"

Lucifer, trying to appear calm, propped his chin on his hand and said, "I just wanted to wear it~ Is that... weird?"

Bai Yu pinched Lucifer's cheek, looked at the little queen's proud expression, and said with a smile, "Of course, this dress suits you very well, it's very elegant~"

Just as Lucifer was about to speak, Bai Yu leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Of course, while formal attire is nice, a more virtuous and gentle look is even more elegant~"

Lucifer blushed, patted Bai Yu on the shoulder, then turned his head away and ignored Bai Yu. Bai Yu smiled, shook his head, and went back to the kitchen.

Cerberus, lying on the table, glanced up at Lucifer and saw that Lucifer's face was flushed but he was still biting his lip to suppress a laugh. He frowned in confusion. Sure enough, it was the right decision that no one in Hell listened to Lucifer.

As Yoshikawa Yuki looked at it, she took a sip with the straw, then froze. She picked up the cup, glanced at it, and exclaimed excitedly, "Aoi! Fuka Nami! This is so delicious!"

"Huh? Really?!"

Himawari was also surprised by the taste. To say that the mixed fruit juice was very delicious would be too much of a compliment. After all, how delicious can a bunch of fruits be? But this juice really amazed her.

The cactus flesh feels similar to aloe vera, and the taste is like inhaling jelly. It has a slightly astringent taste, but this is quickly overwhelmed by the flavors of the other fruits in the juice, leaving only a finishing touch that elevates the entire juice.

"Is this really a cactus? It tastes so good! It's smooth and bouncy, just like jelly!"

Nanami Minami nodded and said, "Yeah, yeah! I'm suddenly really curious about what avocado and aloe vera taste like!"

"Huh? There's such a way to eat it?"

Lucifer glanced at the three chattering little girls, smiled but didn't say anything, though the pride in his eyes was undeniable. Just as he was happily drinking his beverage, a milky aroma wafted out again, and Himawari, a seasoned cheese lover, immediately recognized it.

"Such a rich, milky aroma! This is top-quality cheese!"

"Wow... This is the first time I've seen Aoi so excited..."

Aoi Hinami coughed lightly and said, "I'm a little excited, but this aroma is so strong! What is the shopkeeper making? Why does it smell so milky? Wait... is this chili sauce?!"

Just as everyone was still immersed in the rich aroma of milk, a very fragrant sweet and spicy smell wafted out. Everyone swallowed hard, knowing just from the smell what a tempting feast this was.

About twenty minutes later, Bai Yu came out, this time pushing a food cart. On the cart were a black casserole, a white porcelain pot, and two bowls of dishes covered with something that was unknown.

Bai Yu was like a demon at this moment, making people swallow hard with every step he took. The food cart was carrying a mouthwatering feast. He walked towards them step by step, and this was the most agonizing moment, which also made people swallow harder.

Long waits can be tedious, but as you get closer to it, your patience dwindles; it's a kind of mental urgency, but this urgency is precisely what brings the most joy and excitement...

Famous people are photographed and scrutinized wherever they go. In addition, delicious and fragrant dishes, beautiful flowers, and other such things can also attract people's attention.

The dishes on the food cart that Bai Yu was pushing were of this caliber. After placing the dishes down, Bai Yu smiled and said, "First up is Fuka Nami's braised chicken."

Nanami Minami swallowed hard as she looked at the dish revealed by opening the casserole lid. The aroma hit her like a punch from a boxing champion, catching her completely off guard.

If cooked beef has a powerful, marble-like texture, and cooked pork has a smooth, succulent flavor, then chicken has a unique, fresh, and smooth texture that is immediately apparent.

Only poultry can reach this level. During the processing of their meat, you can feel the smooth and tender texture of the chicken under the skin. There are no lines or so-called textures. It hides everything under that smoothness. Just by looking at it, you can feel the excellent taste after you put it in your mouth.

After cooking, the dish has a rich color. The main ingredients and side dishes, such as green peppers, red peppers, onions, and shiitake mushrooms, complement each other. The color and the taste make it a work of art.

Braised chicken has three unique qualities: First, the broth, which is bright red, tender, savory, and rich, yet not greasy, leaving a lingering aftertaste; second, the meat, which is beautifully presented and tender; and third, the rice, which is fragrant, chewy, and resilient.

The braised chicken in front of me perfectly embodies these three points. Served with white rice and sprinkled with black sesame seeds, it looks beautiful and makes the rice even more delicious.

Seeing Hinami Aoi and Yoshikawa Yuki staring at the braised chicken, Bai Yu smiled and said, "Next is Ms. Hinami Aoi's milk-stewed chicken with fresh vegetables, this kimchi and cheese-filled rice cake, and Ms. Yoshikawa Yuki's pork chop ramen~ All the dishes are served, please enjoy~"

Aoi Hinami looked at the vegetables and chunks of chicken enjoying a milky bath in the creamy broth inside the white porcelain pot in front of her, and then at the orange-red, sweet and spicy rice cakes with a hint of kimchi flavor on the other side.

Only one thought occupied her mind: This place... is the right place!

The milky white broth, rich in flavor and slightly viscous, is incredibly enticing. The stir-fried carrots, potatoes, onions, and other vegetables look especially appealing against the broth.

One bite and you're greeted with the creamy richness of cheese, the smooth texture of cream, the tender yet refreshing taste of stir-fried vegetables, and the juicy, tender elasticity of chicken. There's not much to say; in one word, it's rich! In two words, it's incredibly fragrant!

The fragrant milky aroma is like a well-maintained jade hand gently caressing your heartstrings. However, only when you take a bite will you know what tenderness, fragrance, and perfect combination truly mean. If this dish were a lady, it would be an elegant, noble, and beautifully maintained noblewoman.

After taking a sip, Aoi Hinami was completely hooked. She kept scooping up the soup with her spoon, not caring what vegetables were emerging with the milky white broth, nor the tender chicken soaking in the spoon. All she knew was that the dish was delicious and satisfying enough, and that was enough, because whatever she ate was a delightful surprise.

Unlike the rich and mellow flavors here, Nanami Fukami's version is much more vibrant and intense. Although both dishes are hot, braised chicken is still braised chicken after all. The flavor is so rich, the chicken is so tender, and the spiciness and aroma are so well integrated – it's simply amazing!

The smooth and silky texture of chicken is irreplaceable. When you pick it up with chopsticks, the chicken skin jiggles slightly, occasionally revealing the tender meat underneath – a natural way to attract diners.

Scoop a spoonful of the flavorful broth and pour it over the rice. The moment the broth seeps in, the value of the rice is elevated. There is no better combination than using the spicy and tender chicken, the star of this dish, to accompany the rice that has absorbed the flavor of this dish.

The combination of flavors often represents more than just one plus one. Rice itself is also no simple matter. Rice that has been "double-fried" is equally plump, with loose grains and an enticing aroma.

Shiitake mushrooms are like a panacea; they seem to be able to take on a very memorable role in any dish. With their excellent texture and sponge-like ability to absorb the flavors of the broth, they give back to the dish by enhancing its flavor and elevating the overall taste.

Cerberus watched them eat with such relish, his eyes wide with disbelief. It's somewhat cruel to make a dog watch others eat meat.

"Cerberus, have some of this first!"

"what is this?"

"Meatballs~ Meat meatballs~ You'll like them~"

"Everything Bai Yu makes is delicious!"

Bai Yu smiled and went back to the kitchen to continue preparing their breakfast. The three of them were enjoying their meal immensely. Once Cerberus had something to eat, he turned his attention to himself and couldn't stop eating a dumpling after it entered his mouth.

Lucifer was looking at her phone while occasionally eating a couple of dumplings. No one knew what she was looking at so intently, but it was clear that nobody cared about it now.

"Wow, this is delicious! I never thought onions could taste this good!"

Nanami Minami and Yoshikawa Yuki both nodded, saying nothing as they were busy eating their own dishes. Hinami Aoi, who loved cheese, couldn't stop eating, and since there wasn't much of the dish, she drank it faster than she ate.

Aoi Hinami licked her lips as she looked at the steaming and fragrant kimchi and cheese-filled rice cakes on the side. Just like she said before, eating the smooth flavors first and then the stimulating flavors would bring a more intense taste experience.

The bright orange-red cheese-filled rice cakes look incredibly tempting. Pick one up with your chopsticks, take a bite, and you're greeted with the sweet and spicy flavor of chili sauce, the unique taste of kimchi, the salty and sweet flavor of cheese, and the chewy texture of the rice cake. One bite and your whole body will be awakened by this dish.

The bursting cheese glides between your teeth, spicy with a hint of sweetness, much like the sweet infatuation of first love. The captivating flavor and irresistible texture perfectly capture the bittersweet feeling of first love that you can't bear to part with.

A flavorful and vibrant outer layer, a soft and chewy white interior—this perfectly captures the bittersweetness of first love, the lingering sweetness, and the very essence of adolescence...

Chapter 109 The Strange Strategy Guide Lucifer Found Online (Please Subscribe~)

Inside the shop, three girls were eating without a care in the world of food, while Bai Yu sat next to Lucifer reading a book. Lucifer would occasionally glance up at Bai Yu before continuing to play on his phone.

When Nanami Minami finished her last bite of rice and Yoshikawa Yuki finished her last sip of soup, the three of them announced that they had finished eating. Yoshikawa Yuki immediately slumped into her chair, rubbing her stomach and saying, "Ah~ that was delicious..."

Aoi Hinami wiped her mouth and smiled, saying, "Yes, it's really delicious! I feel like I'll be a regular customer from now on. It's a pity it's a night restaurant, so I don't have many opportunities to come during the week."

While reading, Bai Yu said gently, "The function of a restaurant is to bring you the taste you most want to eat when you suddenly crave a certain flavor. That's the function of a restaurant. But you don't go to any restaurant all the time, do you?"

Hinami Aoi nodded, about to say something, when Yoshikawa Yuki called out, startling Cerberus, who was eating dumplings; his ears twitched twice.

After taking a couple of breaths, Nanami Nami asked in confusion, "Yuki, why did you suddenly call out?"

Yoshikawa Yuki quickly said, "There are only forty minutes left!"

"Ah?!" x2

A hint of anxiety flashed through both Hinami Aoi and Yoshikawa Yuki's eyes. After hurriedly paying the price that shocked Hinami Aoi and Yoshikawa Yuki, they said they would come again in the future and ran out with their bags.

Cerberus tilted his head and said, "Eh? Fukami and the others look so anxious! Master, master, master! When are we going to eat?"

Bai Yu said with a smile, "It should be ready by now~ Cerberus, can you still eat?"

Cerberus paused for a moment, then looked at the plate and saw that there were only a few dumplings left. He said, somewhat puzzled, "Huh? Where are the dumplings? That's strange... there were so many just now..."

Lucifer rolled his eyes and said, "You haven't stopped eating at all, how could there be any left? Don't you ever feel full?"

Cerberus shook his head and said, "No! Master's cooking is super delicious! This little thing called 'Meatball' is also delicious! One bite at a time! And it doesn't feel like I've ever eaten anything like it before!"

Bai Yu pinched Cerberus's little face and said with a smile, "You~ It's time to eat~ There are still a few meatballs left, so don't eat them yet, just leave them aside~ Anyway, meatballs can be eaten even when they're cold."

"Mmmmmmm!"

Cerberus wagged its tail at the mention of food, its eyes shining as it looked at Bai Yu, almost uttering its native tongue. Just as Bai Yu walked into the kitchen to get breakfast, it heard a sound.

"You idiot Erina~ slow down!"

"Alice! Hurry up! What are you dawdling for!"

"We're almost there~ Don't be in such a hurry~ Look how calm Longdan-jie is, but why are you so calm, Longdan-jie~"

Is it strange that I'm calm?

No sooner had she finished speaking than she heard footsteps and then saw Kobayashi Rindou appear at the shop entrance. She leaned against the door and called out, "Shiraha! I'm here!"

After Bai Yu brought breakfast out of the kitchen and placed it on the table, he said with a smile, "You're here so early! Have you had breakfast yet?"

"I've eaten, but I can still eat more~"

Bai Yu said with a smile, "Come sit over here, let's push the two tables together~ That way it'll be more lively. Erina, you guys should eat some too~"

Erina originally wanted to say that she had already eaten and refuse, but after seeing the dishes on the table, she couldn't help but swallow and nod and sit down.

Alice paused strangely for a moment after seeing Bai Yu, then blushed slightly and looked at him, saying, "Thank you, Manager Bai Yu... and... um... I'm so sorry for getting your clothes dirty..."

Bai Yu said with a smile, "It's okay, Alice, but your sleeping posture is quite cute. But remember next time, don't drink alcohol like water, okay?"

Alice, her face flushed, stared at Bai Yu for a long time before lowering her head and whispering, "I can only drink a little bit here with you, Manager Bai Yu... My mother says that alcohol tolerance can be trained..."

"That's true, but a slight buzz is enough. Drinking endlessly without getting drunk takes away the fun. Come and eat!"

Alice stared at Shiraha, lost in thought, until Cerberus called out to her. Only then did Alice snap out of her reverie, run over, and sit down next to Erina, quietly eating her food.

The meal was a simple congee hot pot with some kimchi, so it was eaten quite quickly. However, even though it was just a simple congee hot pot, Cerberus and the others couldn't stop eating.

Fortunately, Bai Yu was well-prepared after learning that Kobayashi Rindou and the others were coming; otherwise, a normal-sized hot pot would not have been enough for so many people.

Cerberus leaned against the door and waved to Shiraha, saying, "Master... Shiraha, Shiraha, Shiraha! Rindan and the others are leaving!"

"Go on, have fun! Remember to come back early tonight, otherwise Erina and the others will be in a difficult position."

Erina shook her head and said, "No, because Rindou-nee said she's coming over tonight, so Hisako and I will be coming too. We'll return Cerberus, so Manager Shiraha can rest assured and leave it to us."

Bai Yu nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, I feel very safe with Cerberus with you guys. Have fun!"

"Okay~" x6

Watching Cerberus and the others leave, Bai Yu sighed and said, "I didn't expect Cerberus to leave so suddenly; I'm actually a little unaccustomed to it."

Lucifer snorted and said, "Aren't I still here?"

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Hmm~ that makes sense~ so, Little Queen, what should we do?"

Only Bai Yu and Lucifer remained in the shop. Lucifer paused slightly, then blushed slightly and said, "You said you'd take me to play games today... I also want to meet Albedo..."

Bai Yu sat down next to Lucifer, pinched Lucifer's cheek, and said, "Don't worry~ Although Albedo is also very beautiful, she's virtual after all, she won't actually appear~ There's no need to be jealous~" (Albedo: Here I come~)

Lucifer puffed out his cheeks and said, "I don't believe you! Let's go, let's go~"

"What?"

"Play games!"

Lucifer, blushing, walked upstairs while nervously looking at the walkthrough on his phone screen. He said, "Am I really going to play the game in my partner's arms...? But sitting on Bai Yu's lap should be more comfortable than a stool, right...? I just don't want to sit on a stool! Yes! That's it!" (Lucifer: I feel like there's something wrong with this walkthrough.)

Bai Yu watched Lucifer mutter to himself as he went upstairs, then smiled and shook his head. He then walked to the shop entrance, hung up the "Closed" sign, closed the door, and went upstairs.

Chapter 110 Lucifer: I believe, but not completely (Please subscribe~)

Lucifer stood in the center of Bai Yu's room. It was her first time visiting Bai Yu's room, so she was quite curious.

"Huh? So that stinky guy also grows flowers?"

"Wait... what is this...? Huh? That's strange, is this some kind of weird fruit?"

As Lucifer was examining a strange fruit that Bai Yu had placed on the windowsill, Bai Yu appeared behind her and said gently, "What's wrong? Why do you look so puzzled?"

Lucifer pointed to the strange fruit on the windowsill and said, "What kind of fruit is this? Why does it look so strange? It's like a toy!"
