Chapter 102 - Anorexia? Non-existent!!!
Soon after swallowing a piece of egg, a spark of light appeared in Xin Er's eyes. Without hesitation, she grabbed another slice of tomato and popped it into her mouth.
Jiang Hao watched with joy. His culinary creations truly stood out!
Beside him, Xia Qin was overcome with happiness, tears streaming down her face.
“My Xin Er is finally eating again!”
Chopsticks in hand, Xin Er made quick work of the side dishes, and in no time, more than half had disappeared.
Xia Qin dabbed away her tears and rose swiftly to give Jiang Hao a deep bow of gratitude.
“Thank you, Mr. Jiang, I can't thank you enough!”
Jiang Hao sighed at the sight, his heart touched by parental love.
“There's nothing like a parent's concern.”
“Don't mention it. It was nothing, really. Besides, Xin Er is so endearing, anyone would be moved to help her!”
“Xin Er's just regained her appetite, so we should avoid greasy foods. The ingredients for this ‘Golden Lotus in Fire' dish are all light, appetizing vegetables. I'll make her some porridge next to gently warm her stomach.”
Hearing this, Xia Qin showed great respect towards Jiang Hao and responded eagerly.
“We'll do as you say, Mr. Jiang!”
Jiang Hao nodded in acknowledgment.
Before long, Jiang's father arrived!
Jiang Hao quickly took the ingredients from his father and headed back into the kitchen to get to work.
Soon, the kitchen was filled with the enticing aroma of hearty meals being prepared.
With the help of Jiang's father and mother, a series of exquisite, glistening dishes were soon brought to the table.
Jiang Hao ladled some porridge for Xin Er first. Her appetite seemed to have returned in full force as she eagerly devoured her meal.
The sight brought immense joy to Jiang's parents.
Xia Qin marveled at the spread before her. The color, aroma, and flavor surpassed anything she had experienced in even the most upscale restaurants. Her daughter, who struggled with anorexia, was irresistibly drawn to the food. Shock and awe filled her eyes.
In the presence of Jiang Hao's specially prepared dishes, Xin Er seemed to cast aside her illness completely.
Seeing this, Jiang Hao and the rest could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Jiang Hao was just about to call Jiang Zixuan over for dinner when a sharply dressed young man strode in!
Jiang Hao quickly addressed him.
“Sorry, sir, we're closed for the day.”
But the man barely glanced at Jiang Hao; instead, his attention was captured by the glistening, aromatic dishes at Xia Qin's table.
A flicker of astonishment and delight crossed his eyes, then he puffed up with arrogance, exuding an air of condescension.
“Kid, where's your chef? Go tell him that Fann Jian, the general manager of Heavenly-Mansion Tavern, requests his presence. I'm here to offer him a golden opportunity!”
The man's haughtiness made Jiang Hao's brow furrow in distaste.
“Apologies, sir, but we're no longer open.
And as for the chef, I may not be much, but you're looking at him!
Regarding this ‘opportunity' you speak of, I have no interest in it.”
Fann Jian was taken aback by the response, finally turning his full attention to Jiang Hao.
But upon seeing Jiang Hao's youthful face, his surprise morphed into sneers.
“You? The chef? Don't make me laugh! Go fetch the real chef and tell him Fann Jian of Heavenly-Mansion Tavern is waiting. He won't wait forever!”
Fann Jian couldn't fathom that such a young, seemingly inexperienced boy could be the creator of such visually stunning and fragrant culinary masterpieces.
