Chapter 9 Wasting Food is Shameful

The food was served quite quickly in the restaurant. After the two were silent for a while, the food came up.

A plate of stir-fried cabbage, the soft cabbage leaves show that it is overcooked, and the taste is not very good. When you bite it, it is not crispy at all and has a bitter taste.

Very good, her guess was confirmed.

Bai Mianmian glanced at Jiang Ci.

The waiter who did not leave in time after serving the dishes stood there staring at Bai Mianmian's face.

Those poor people who have never eaten real food, after seeing the prices on the menu, will always say that the dishes do not look tasty. After reluctantly ordering one or two dishes and eating them, they will show an expression of amazement as if they have never seen the world.

This funny expression is the fun of his work day!

"What's wrong?" Jiang Ci's expression became serious.

Is there something wrong with the food? Thinking of this, he picked up a piece of food with chopsticks.

The food still tasted the same as before, no problem. Jiang Ci looked at Bai Mianmian.

Seeing that Jiang Ci showed no other expression after finishing the meal, Bai Mianmian chewed the dish twice and swallowed it, "Didn't you notice the bitter taste of this dish?"

"Isn't this normal?" Jiang Ci's expression relaxed.

I thought the meal was going to be a failure, but luckily the food was fine.

Is it normal to have a bitter taste?!
Bai Mianmian was shocked, with an expression of disbelief on her face. Is this the only way she can eat food from now on?
Jiang Ci, who originally thought it was nothing, was stunned by Bai Mianmian's expression at that moment.

Could it be that she had ever eaten a dish that had no bitter taste at all?
The only people who can eat food without bitter taste are probably those from the inner star region and the main star, but she doesn't look like that.

Although I saw Bai Mianmian's expression change, it was not quite the same as I expected.

After hearing Bai Mianmian's words again, the waiter knew that he had made a mistake this time. A look of disappointment flashed in his eyes as he did not leave, and then he walked away lightly.

He knew that there were some people who could not be offended, so the waiter put away his contempt.

"Give me a tube of nutrient solution." Bai Mianmian suddenly stretched out her hand to Jiang Ci.

In the original owner's memory, the nutrient solution seemed to be quite delicious. She wanted to try whether the staple nutrient solution of this interstellar era was better than these foods.

This time Jiang Ci did not hesitate. He took out a tube of nutrient solution from the space button and handed it to Bai Mianmian. "My nutrient solutions are all original."

Original flavor? Well, the original owner drank the original flavor, but it was a little different from Jiang Ci's tube. It was obvious at a glance that Jiang Ci's tube of nutrient solution was better than the original owner's.

He opened the tube of the nutrient solution and took a sip. It had a sticky taste with a hint of saltiness.

taste not good!
He swallowed the nutrient solution in his mouth whole. Thinking that this would be the only food he would eat in the future, his eyes turned red and tears gathered in them.

When her vision blurred, Bai Mianmian realized that she had tears in her eyes?!
For a moment, I raised my head and looked forward in confusion.

Their eyes met, and at that moment, Jiang Ci didn't know what expression to make. Why... why was she crying?
With a blink of her eyes, the tears in her eyes slid down, and Bai Mianmian became even more confused.

What the hell? Are her tears coming out so easily?!

"Next time I'll take you to the planets in the inner star region to eat food that doesn't taste bitter. Don't cry." Jiang Ci comforted him.

He invited people to dinner and made them cry, and the reason they cried was because the food was not tasty. He was really at a loss.

He really didn't expect her sense of taste to be so sensitive. Most people couldn't taste this bitterness at all.

After saying that, he saw Bai Mianmian holding a half-empty tube of nutrient solution in her hand, and continued, "I'll buy you some fruit-flavored nutrient solution, too."

Bai Mianmian opened her confused eyes and looked at Jiang Ci, "..." Jiang Ci: "..."

He has said everything he needs to say, what else does he have to say now?
After a pause, Bai Mianmian, whose tears had stopped, asked in a sobbing voice, "You mean, there are still dishes without a bitter taste, right?"

"Yes." Jiang Ci said with certainty.

But I was thinking about Bai Mianmian’s words. What did she mean?
Was she thinking that he would take her to eat dishes that did not have a bitter taste in the future?
Or does she not know that there are dishes that are not bitter?
Thinking of this, Jiang Ci looked at Bai Mianmian and explained, "The pollutants in plants and animals are the source of the bitter taste. These pollutants require an S-level plant-based psychic or a purification psychic to completely remove them."

So in the future she will work hard to kill Zerg and earn star coins. Once she has a lot of star coins, she will be able to eat food without the bitter taste, right?

Now Bai Mianmian doesn't mind if the food is not tasty. As long as it doesn't have that bitter taste, she thinks it's still delicious...

Feeling relieved, Bai Mianmian replied sullenly, "Yeah."

Her expression was calm at this time, but her heart was exploding!
Ah~!

She actually cried in front of someone she just met for the second time?!
What's wrong with this body? Is it so easy to cry?
want to cry!

No, hold it in!
Can’t cry!!!
Watching Bai Mianmian's expression changing again and again, Jiang Ci pursed his lips and wanted to laugh. Her expressions were really too rich.

Seeing that the two of them had quieted down, the waiter slowly brought over the next dish.

I didn't dare to look at anything more. After the waiter served the dishes, he took a step back, bowed slightly and said, "Sir, Madam, all the dishes are served. I wish you a happy meal!"

After saying that, the waiter didn't dare to stay any longer and turned away.

Looking at Bai Mianmian who was still distracted, Jiang Ci asked, "Do you still want to eat?"

"Eat!" Bai Mianmian responded instantly.

Shameful waste!
Although the taste is not very good, food that can fill your stomach should not be wasted!

Bai Mianmian glanced at the half tube of nutrient solution in her hand, drank it all in one breath, and then picked up chopsticks to eat the vegetables.

There were six dishes on the table: stir-fried cabbage, stir-fried cucumber, stir-fried rapeseed hearts, boiled white radish, braised pork, and grilled spare ribs. Bai Mianmian found it weird.

The original owner had no memory of eating, and the only thing he knew about filling his stomach was nutrient solution. Judging from the menu just now, vegetables were more expensive than meat dishes, so there was really nothing wrong with ordering dishes like this to entertain guests.

But whether it is vegetables or meat, that bitter taste is always there.

Fortunately, the taste of the ingredients themselves provided a buffer, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to eat so much.

After finally completing the "Clean Plate" campaign, Bai Mianmian drank a glass of water to dilute the bitter taste in her mouth.

"Burp~" Bai Mianmian burped without noticing.

Bai Mianmian looked at Jiang Ci opposite her in shock.

Picking up the glass of water on the table, Jiang Ci lowered his head to drink the water, hiding the slightly upturned corners of his mouth.

With her eyes slightly narrowed, Bai Mianmian felt that Jiang Ci was making fun of her, but she had no evidence.

"Ahem." After suppressing his smile, Jiang Ci put down his water cup and coughed lightly, "Now that we're done eating, let's talk about what I want your help with."

Seeing Jiang Ci's serious expression, Bai Mianmian also restrained the expression on her face and pretended to listen carefully, "Go ahead."

Bai Mianmian's serious look now is a bit like the serious and solemn look she had when Jiang Ci first met her.
