Chapter 1987: Blissful Kebabs

The kebabs’ aroma spread out in the cold, wintery yard. The rich meaty aroma together with the spices’ fragrance was irresistible.
Gulping sounds could be heard all around. The children stopped playing, and gathered around to watch the sizzling kebabs in Mag’s hands. They couldn’t help swallowing their saliva.
“This is simply too aromatic!”
“Why is the meat’s aroma so enticing? It’s different from the meat I had before!”
“Although I had three bowls of rice at lunch, I feel that I can eat again.”
The children were completely lost in the kebabs’ aroma.
Aneurin wiped the saliva away from the corner of his mouth, and softly lamented, “He’s indeed the legendary Boss Mag. Just the aroma alone is irresistible.”
The staff members’ and children’s expressions were no better. A few maidens already had little stars sparkling in their eyes.
This young and handsome boss had amazing culinary skills. He was simply too outstanding!
Amy stood at the side with a smile, and whispered, “I know everyone will like it.”
“Nobody can resist the delicious food made by Uncle Mag.” Jessica nodded in agreement.
Mag walked between the two grills. Both sets of mutton kebabs and beef kebabs were completed at the same time, and were placed on two long metal plates.
“Please give them to the children. Each child will have one beef kebab and one mutton kebab,” Mag said to the staff members standing at the side with a smile.
“Alright.” That middle-aged lady nodded, and yelled, “Children, line up like the meal times. Come and get the kebabs one by one.”
The children, who were squeezing together initially, instantly formed six lines, and the staff members began to hand out the kebabs to the children.
Mag continued to grill the kebabs for the children. Leaving the distribution to the staff members allowed him to focus on cooking the food.
“Mmm… This beef kebab is so delicious! This is my first time eating beef… so yummy…”
“Ah… I bit my tongue. It’s simply too delicious!”
“The sheep are so cute. They taste even better when they are grilled!”
“I’m going to cry… This is too delicious.”
The children had already lost themselves to the kebabs. The orphanage made sure that they had three full meals a day. They were often given meat, which they hadn’t dared to dream about in the past.
However, the children had never eaten such delicious food before. The scrumptious kebabs had subverted all their imagination regarding good food. They had never had such delicious food before, not even in their dreams.
Innocent smiles blossomed on the children’s faces. That was the blissfulness that was rarely seen on their faces.
At least they are happy at this moment, Aneurin lamented inwardly. As the person in charge of this orphanage, he knew a little about each child.
Miserable backgrounds and the experience of wandering on the streets made these children more timid and self-conscious. They acted tough, and were guarded against the world like a porcupine. They wouldn’t show their gentleness and emotions to the world.
Mag’s grilling speed became faster and faster, keeping up perfectly with the staff members’ distribution speed.
Very soon, all the 500-odd children received the freshly grilled beef kebabs and mutton kebabs.
The kebab’s pieces of meat were quite substantial. Even though there were only two kebabs for each child, they were enough for the children. Although the children would like to have more, they still had a sated smile.
Mag gave the last kebabs to the staff members as a gesture of appreciation for their help.
After declining a few times, the staff members accepted Mag’s good will.
After giving out kebabs after kebabs, and hearing the children’s praises, they were already salivating. However, when they really tucked into the freshly grilled kebabs, all their thoughts were satisfied.
The fat parts of the beef looked like small crystals. The sauce was well distributed. The surface of each piece was covered with grease. It looked very tempting.
As soon as the beef entered their mouth, its slightly charred surface melted over their palate along with the garlic-flavored sauce. The garlic usually tasted sharp and overwhelming, but the flavor of this garlic sauce was very mellow and delicious.
As they carefully chewed into the meat, it immediately fell apart in their mouth, releasing even more potent flavors of beef and garlic. They felt as if their taste buds were rejoicing from the extraordinary flavor, and they simply were unable to stop eating!
“Th-this is simply criminal… It’s too delicious!” Aneurin took a deep breath through his nose. His emotions were a little out of control.
“Mr. Mag?” Right then, a slightly surprised voice appeared from behind Mag.
Mag turned around, and saw Luna and Vivian walking in at the door. He smilingly greeted, “Teacher Luna, Miss Vivian.”
Amy jogged over, looked up at Luna, and called out to her, “Teacher Luna!”
“Little Amy.” Luna rubbed Amy’s head smilingly as she looked at the unfinished kebabs in the children’s hands and the two grills in front of Mag before saying to Mag, “Seems like you are making delicious kebabs for the children.”
Vivian peeped into the empty food crate, and lamented, “Tsk, tsk. It’s a pity that we came too late. We didn’t even get to eat one.”
“Teacher Luna, the kebabs made by this uncle are super delicious.”
“Yes, yes. It’s really very delicious!”
The children smiled when they saw Luna, and they didn’t forget to heap praises on Mag.
“Amy said she wanted to see her friends, so I brought her over, and made some kebabs for the children as well.” Mag nodded while making an ice cream from the ice cream machine at the side, and passed it to Vivian. “The kebabs are just finished, but we still have ice cream.”
“Thank you, Boss Mag!” Vivian was as happy as a child. She took the ice cream from Mag, and licked it with an increasingly bright smile.
Meanwhile, the children’s gaze landed on Vivian’s ice cream. They began to feel curious about the thing that this pretty big sister was licking so happily.
“It’s been a long time since the children were so happy. Mr. Mag’s culinary skills are really amazing.” Aneurin walked over, and looked at Mag with admiration.
“You’re being too kind.” Mag felt that Aneurin’s gaze was a little gayish, and he instinctively moved closer towards Luna before continuing, “I didn’t prepare too many kebabs, but I still have ice cream for the children. Since we are all here, let’s distribute the ice cream to the children first.”
“Alright. Let us help too.” Luna nodded.
Mag turned on the ice cream machine, which had four choices, and began distributing the ice cream to the children.
