The story begins in Food Wars, when Alice took him home.

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's explanation, Liya's heart surged with excitement. She then looked at him expectantly and asked, wanting to know about her advantages.

I can't see your strengths at the moment.

French cuisine? You could try using what you've learned before; a fusion of Chinese and French styles might be your strength.

Bai Yuan pinched his chin as he analyzed that Liya's strength was not weak, but she did not have a particularly outstanding specialty.

Being proficient in French and Chinese cuisine barely qualifies one, but the rest are just average and mediocre.

So, he's a genius, but he doesn't have a weapon he can use...?

"So, does that mean I don't have any amazing talents? That's really disappointing."

Lia said this in French, so that Bai Yuan wouldn't notice her disappointment.

"Don't be discouraged. I don't have anything particularly outstanding. You can probably tell that I'm about the same level when it comes to cooking each dish. I rarely do anything extraordinary."

Bai Yuan also answered in French, which he had learned on his own while staying at Alice Nakiri's house, because he wanted to learn French cuisine, and many authentic French dishes were written in French.

"Boss Bai, you can even speak French!"

"Is this any of a surprise? We also spoke in French during the master chef assessment."

"It's been a while, I forgot."

She looked at Bai Yuan with a surprised expression, seemingly not expecting him to speak French so fluently, even more so than she, a Frenchwoman!

"Stability is the best talent! And Boss Bai, your cooking is not so much lacking in characteristics, but rather that you are proficient in everything!"

Even for dishes I've never made before, I can achieve the best results on my first try!

Hearing Bai Yuan's somewhat self-deprecating words, Liya couldn't help but retort.

If other people's weapons make one corner of their stat panel stand out, then Bai Yuan's weapons have all six corners of the panel piercing the sky, stretching as far as the eye can see!

"What you said makes some sense."

In summary, your next step is to identify your strengths and then develop and amplify them; this is your opportunity to become stronger.

Bai Yuan began to speak gently and persuasively.

"I've found my strengths, I've remembered that, and I'll work towards that goal from now on!"

After closing her eyes and thinking for a while, Leah nodded solemnly, her eyes revealing determination. This would become her goal for the future.

"Then keep trying. This might be the key to your breakthrough to the fifth level of the Special Grade."

As he spoke, Bai Yuan patted Liya's head again.

Feeling the silky smoothness of the touch, he suddenly added another sentence.

"The key to breaking through to the fifth level of the Special Grade?! Is this so-called advantage even that powerful?"

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, a hint of confusion involuntarily appeared on Liya's face.

"Of course it's powerful. It's mainly for helping you focus on one thing and reach the pinnacle."

A top-tier, five-star dish requires breaking through conventions in some aspect, reaching a level that ordinary people cannot achieve, in order for the dish to truly shine.

"Breaking with convention?"

Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Liya's expression froze for a moment. This was the first time she had heard Bai Yuan talk about a special five-star dish. So that's how it is.

Only by breaking with convention can one reach a level that ordinary people cannot achieve!

"That's right, it's about breaking the rules and taking something that would normally only get 100 points and getting it to 101 points, so that we can create a dish that shines."

"101 points..."

Hearing his words, Leah lowered her head and fell silent again. She couldn't even reach 100 points, let alone 101.

However, at least we have a direction to move forward.

"Don't be too anxious. Your youth is your biggest advantage. You have plenty of time to try and fail. Even if things don't go well, I'll be there for you. Advancing to the Special Grade Five Star is not a difficult thing."

Seeing the silent Lia, Bai Yuan assumed that the difficulty of becoming a Special Grade Five Star had frightened her, so he comforted her from the side.

"No, I'm just too excited."

Lia's body, hidden beneath her nightgown, trembled slightly as she suppressed her excitement and exclaimed, "This is truly wonderful news!"

Previously, she didn't know how to advance to the Special Grade Five Star. Although she focused on basic training, she felt that all her efforts were aimless, which is why her progress was so slow.

Now that Bai Yuan tells her that she only needs to concentrate on one point to reach the realm she has always dreamed of, how could she not be excited?!

"Then let's keep working hard!"

Seeing Liya's appearance, Bai Yuan showed a relieved expression.

I originally wanted to advise her to take it easy and not be discouraged by a temporary setback, but I didn't expect Leah to be so open-minded. Not only was she not discouraged, but she was also full of enthusiasm and had the drive to move forward.

"Ok!"

Lia nodded solemnly, her mind indeed focused on how to give Bai Yuan a surprise.

Become a top-tier five-star chef before the age of thirty.

At that moment, the small figure seemed to have made up his mind.

"It's getting late. I promised Xiaohui I'd spend time with her today, so I'll head over now."

Seeing that Lia's condition had stabilized, and thinking of Tadokoro Megumi waiting anxiously for her next door, Bai Yuan finished speaking and walked towards the door.

Having multiple girlfriends brings these troubles: your ample time quickly slips away because you don't know who to spend it with, and you also have to face the lingering, reluctant gaze of your girlfriends when you leave.

"I know you're going to be with her today, so I won't stop you from seeing her. But you can still give me a goodnight kiss when you leave."

Seeing Bai Yuan walk outside without stopping, Liya hurriedly got up and followed him, her voice carrying a hint of coquetry.

As she spoke, she slipped her hands under Bai Yuan's neck and placed them on his shoulders. Then, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him with deep affection in her eyes.

Bai Yuan naturally wouldn't refuse, and even took the initiative to put his hand on Liya's waist, feeling its warmth and responding to Liya's greedy desire.

"No, I still need to go find Xiaohui..."

His hand moved as if it were on autopilot, but was pulled back by Bai Yuan just before he was about to step into the mysterious forbidden zone.

He remembered the pinky promise he made with Tadokoro Megumi in the corridor, and his mind quickly calmed down.

He couldn't stay here today no matter what. He didn't want Tadokoro Megumi to be sad because of him. He wanted to make her happy and make her a winner in life!

"Good night."

After a long while, their lips parted. Looking at the girl in front of him who was clearly aroused, Bai Yuan left as if fleeing after leaving those words, without even giving her a second glance.

I was afraid that if I stayed even a second longer, I would lose control.

"What a determined man! He could recover instantly in that situation, and that's exactly why I like you. Boss Bai~"

Watching Bai Yuan flee in panic, Lia stood at the door of the room for a long time.

"I am back."

After leaving Lia's room, Bai Yuan went straight to Tadokoro Megumi's room and called out to her before even entering.

"Welcome back, Mr. Bai Yuan."

As soon as he entered the room, Bai Yuan smelled a fragrance. He looked up and saw that Tadokoro Megumi had just finished taking a shower and was coming out of the bathroom.

Seeing the girl running towards him, Bai Yuan opened his arms and hugged her, naturally burying his head in the crook of her neck, inhaling her pleasant scent.

The advantages of having many girlfriends also become apparent at this moment: you can experience different feelings every day, so you will never get tired of it.

"Did you just take a shower?"

After a long while, Bai Yuan released his arm around Tadokoro Megumi, silently took two steps back, and looked her over with admiration.

At this moment, the girl's posture, fresh from her bath, is like a lotus flower just beginning to bloom in the morning dew, carrying the misty vapor and unadorned liveliness.

She was wrapped in a plain white bath towel, with glistening water droplets still dripping from the ends of her hair, sliding down the curve of her neck and into the small lake in the hollow of her collarbone.

Her cheeks were flushed a faint blush from the steam, like petals dyed by the sunset, and her lowered eyelashes cast damp shadows.

Barefoot on the misty floor tiles, her arches flexed lightly like crescent moons, leaving faint watermarks that made Bai Yuan unable to look away.

"Yes, I rinsed it a little, but I washed my hair."

Tadokoro Megumi nodded slightly. Thinking that it wouldn't take long for Shiro to comfort Lia and worried that he would have to wait too long, she quickly took a shower and came out.

"There's no need to rush. Speaking of which, it's been a long time since we took a bath together. The last time was at Zhuanghui Garden, and your mother personally prepared the bathwater for us. Why don't we do it together this time?"

"Sure, I'm actually missing that feeling too, even though it's a little embarrassing..."

Seeing the weariness hidden in Tadokoro Megumi's eyes, Bai Yuan silently closed and locked the door to prevent anyone from disturbing his good time.

Then, a princess carried her into the bathroom, where they began an intimate interaction unique to couples.

It took me a whole night.

Shirabuchi and Tadokoro Megumi didn't fall asleep until late at night, and slept until noon. Nakiri Alice couldn't stand it anymore and came to knock on the door.

"Get up, get up, it's time for lunch. It's not good for your health to skip lunch."

"We'll wash up and be right there."

Hearing Alice Nakiri's concerned words at the door, Bai Yuan, who was initially agitated from being woken up, immediately calmed down and called out.

"I'll give you ten minutes. If you don't come out in ten minutes, I'll come back."

"Don't worry, ten minutes is enough."

After saying this, Bai Yuan looked at Tadokoro Megumi, who was still fast asleep on the bed with a section of her arm exposed.

It seems like I really put her through a lot last night.

This is a bit tricky.

"Since you two have come out, stop looking so gloomy and smile more, wouldn't it be better?"

It was already 2 PM when they came out after lunch. Bai Yuan specially called Nakiri Erina and Nakiri Alice out, preparing to take them for special training. However, the two of them were clearly not in good condition.

The two have not reconciled yet.

When they see each other's faces and their eyes meet unintentionally, they will show a look of disgust and aversion.

This is not good news.
