C101 – I am Hungry!

?After speaking, Jiang Hao stood up, glanced at Xia Qin beside him, and said, “I’m not sure if my cooking will help Xin Er, but I’ll give it my all. Please wait with Xin Er for a little while.”

With that, Jiang Hao turned and headed straight for the kitchen.

Xia Qin quickly expressed her gratitude, but Jiang Hao was already through the kitchen doors.

Jiang’s mother, witnessing the exchange, felt a touch of embarrassment and hastened to defuse the tension.

“Oh, this child!”

“My apologies, sister. Jiang Hao isn’t usually like this!”

……

While Jiang’s mother kept Xia Qin and Xin Er company, Jiang Hao retreated to the kitchen, lost in thought. After a brief moment, he sprang into action.

Truth be told, Jiang Hao wasn’t certain his dishes would coax Xin Er into eating, but he was determined to try.

He readied his ingredients and, drawing from the God Chef skills in his mind, began to cook.

Soon enough, a tantalizing aroma wafted from the pot, filling the air beyond the kitchen.

Xia Qin, seated outside, was instantly captivated by the scent.

“Wow, that smells amazing!”

She was astounded; the aroma rivaled that of the culinary masters she’d once employed.

Just then, Xin Er, who had been sitting quietly, twitched her little nose and turned to Xia Qin.

“Mommy, Xin Er is hungry!”

Xia Qin, taken aback, paused as if she had misheard.

“Ah!”

But then, Xin Er’s sweet voice repeated.

“Mommy, Xin Er is hungry!”

This time, Xia Qin heard her loud and clear and was overcome with joy.

“Xin Er is hungry?”

“It worked, it really worked!”

Overwhelmed with happiness, she burst into tears, then quickly stood up, craning her neck towards the kitchen, unsure of what to do next.

Jiang’s mother, equally surprised and delighted, exclaimed, “Knowing you’re hungry is a good sign. It seems to have really worked!”

“Sister Xia, don’t fret. I’ll go check on how Hao’s doing!”

She rose and made her way to the kitchen.

Meanwhile, inside the kitchen, Jiang Hao gazed at the exquisite dish on the plate, its golden glow beckoning, and he too felt a surge of surprise and joy!

In Jiang Hao’s eyes, a line of tiny characters seemed to float above the dish.

“Appetite Boost +5”

“This dish glows red with fiery hues, laced with golden streaks, and bears the semblance of a lotus. Let’s call it ‘Golden Lotus in Flames’!”

With that, Jiang Hao was ready to serve the dish and have Xin Er try it first.

Just then, Jiang’s mother walked in.

“Hao, is it ready?”

“Mom, I’ve just whipped up a dish and I want Xin Er to be the first to sample it!”

Also, Mom, could you have Dad swing by the vegetable market after he leaves Uncle Cheng’s place? We need to stock up on some veggies, meat, goji berries, and millet…

I might whip up something else for Xin Er depending on how things go!”

“Alright, alright. Take this dish up to her first, Xin Er’s hungry!”

Jiang’s mother urged him on, while simultaneously dialing Jiang’s father on her phone.

Jiang Hao, carrying the ‘Golden Lotus in Flames,’ left the kitchen.

Soon after, the dish was on the table, capturing the rapt attention of Xia Qin and Xin Er.

Xia Qin, mesmerized by the radiant dish and the wafting aroma, couldn’t help but salivate.

“Xin Er, go ahead and taste how good your brother’s cooking is!”

Jiang Hao slid the dish towards Xin Er and handed her a pair of chopsticks.

Xin Er accepted the chopsticks, picked up a piece of egg, and tasted it.

Meanwhile, Jiang Hao and Xia Qin watched her with eager anticipation!
