[Late-night food porn. To be honest, I'm a little ashamed, but the best crab roe soup dumplings in Jiangcheng aren't at our Grand Hyatt, but at a small stall in the University Town night market.]
The ingredients were incredibly fresh, and the cooking was superb. A true hidden gem, worth the long queue. The 666 yuan was well worth it. [Images][Images]
The accompanying picture shows the crystal-clear soup dumplings and Lin Fan's profile as he busies himself amidst the fireworks.
The person who posted the update was none other than Zhao Tianyi, the young master of Junyue.
"Clatter".
"Zhao Tianyi... he went to eat too?"
"And such a high evaluation?"
Su Qing's mind went blank.
Who is Zhao Tianyi? He's a shrewd businessman known for his shrewdness, and the heir to the Grand Hyatt Hotel!
His tongue is more sensitive than any instrument. He rarely praises even the head chef of his own hotel in his social media posts, but today he actually used the phrase "completely convinced" for a roadside stall.
It's important to understand that in the business world, such public praise is essentially equivalent to a credit endorsement!
"How...how is this possible?"
Su Qing frowned, and for the first time, a strong sense of unease arose in her heart.
"Could it be that Lin Fan... really has real skills?"
Shen Man said it was dead crab meat and flavoring, and even flies.
But Zhao Tianyi called it "top-grade crab roe" and "a reclusive master".
These two diametrically opposed evaluations made Su Qing feel inexplicably irritated and confused.
She instinctively wanted to believe Shen Man because Shen Man was her best friend and was trying to help her.
But someone of Zhao Tianyi's status would never tarnish his reputation by talking nonsense on social media.
"Who is lying?"
Su Qing gritted her teeth and opened Shen Man's WeChat chat window.
Looking at the message Shen Man posted yesterday, "It's disgusting, all about technology and ruthless work," Su Qing's eyes gradually hardened.
She's eaten Lin Fan's cooking before! How could she possibly have such a high opinion of him!
Zhao Tianzhi was just a rich second-generation who occasionally tried new things; he was probably misled by the strong flavor of the artificial fragrance.
But Manman is different. Manman is my best friend; we grew up together, and she would never lie to herself!
Besides, she went to eat there to help me keep an eye on Lin Fan, so she had no reason to lie!
Su Qing quickly completed her self-strategy.
She was convinced that Shen Man was telling the truth and that Zhao Tianyi had been fooled.
"Lin Fan, what methods did you use to even deceive Zhao Tianyi?"
……
Late at night.
After seeing off the last group of reluctant diners, Lin Fan finally hung up the "Sold Out" sign.
Although Shen Man was stubborn, Lin Fan had seen her looking back every few steps as she left.
Even after Zhao Tianyi and the others left, she secretly scanned the code again, saying she was buying snacks for Tuantuan, but actually she was eagerly asking if there was any soup left.
This woman is probably completely conquered.
After packing up the stall, Lin Fan drove Tuan Tuan, who was already as sleepy as a chick pecking at rice, towards home.
……
The first rays of morning sunlight pierced through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the high-rise buildings in Jinmao Mansion, spilling onto the soft wool carpet.
Gone is the lingering musty smell of the basement, and the occasional rustling of mice from the corners. In its place is the quiet sound of the central air conditioning and the faint scent of a high-end fragrance in the air.
Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes, looking at the exquisite ceiling and crystal chandelier above him, and felt a moment of disorientation.
Everything that has happened these past few days feels like a dream.
From a penniless son-in-law who left with nothing, to now living in the most luxurious mansion in Jiangcheng, earning tens of thousands a day.
The turning point for all of this was simply because of that magical system, and... that bowl of fried rice.
"Um... Daddy..."
A soft, sweet murmur came from beside me.
Tuantuan was wearing the Elsa princess nightgown that Lin Fan had just bought for her yesterday, clinging to Lin Fan's arm like an octopus, and sleeping soundly.
The little girl's lips curled up slightly, as if she were having a sweet dream.
Lin Fan gently withdrew his arm, not in a hurry to get up, but turned to the side, greedily gazing at his daughter's sleeping face.
Over the past five years, although Tuantuan has had no shortage of material things in the Su family, she has always been under constant mental strain.
Su Qing was busy with work and treated him coldly, but Tuan Tuan's sensitive little heart actually understood everything.
She always tried her best to please her mother, afraid of upsetting her.
But now, in this new home that belongs to the father and daughter, Lin Fan finally saw something on his daughter's face that was completely relaxed, something called "a sense of security".
"Tuantuan, Dad swears that I will never let you suffer any injustice again in this lifetime."
Lin Fan leaned down and gently kissed Tuan Tuan's smooth forehead.
Then he got up and washed up.
Stepping into the bathroom, which was even larger than his previous rented room, Lin Fan looked at the energetic and determined man in the mirror and nodded in satisfaction.
After being continuously transformed by the [Physical Enhancement Liquid], his skin became firm and healthy, and his back, which had been slightly hunched due to long-term hard work, straightened up, exuding a confident charm in every gesture.
That's the source of their confidence.
……
"Wow!!"
A startled cry shattered the morning's tranquility.
As soon as Lin Fan came out of the bathroom, he saw Tuan Tuan standing barefoot in front of the living room's floor-to-ceiling window, her whole body pressed against the glass, her big eyes wide open.
"Dad! Look! That's the big river! The boat looks so small, like a toy!"
Tuantuan excitedly pointed to the winding river and the bustling streets like ants beneath her feet.
"Dad, do we live up in the clouds?"
Lin Fan smiled and walked over, picked up his daughter, and carried her to the window.
"Yes, because Tuantuan is a little princess, and of course a princess should live in a castle, even if it's a castle in the clouds, Daddy will bring it down for you."
"Hehehe! Daddy's so tall! I'm a giant!"
Tuantuan held Lin Fan's head, her clear and melodious laughter echoing throughout the spacious mansion.
After the father and daughter played around for a while, Tuantuan suddenly clutched her tummy and said shyly, "Daddy, the giant's tummy is flat from hunger..."
"Okay, Dad will go make breakfast now."
"System, retrieve today's ingredients."
Although I haven't gone to purchase them yet, there are still some Xiangshui tribute rice and premium free-range eggs left in the system space.
In Lin Fan's hands, simple fried rice seemed to come alive.
No complicated side dishes are needed; the sound of rice jumping in the pot alone is enough to make one feel intoxicated.
Ten minutes later.
Two bowls of golden fried rice were placed on the marble dining table.
Dining in this spacious, bright restaurant with a great view makes even a bowl of fried rice seem more upscale.
Tuantuan sat on the high chair, swinging her little feet, eating heartily, her mouth covered with rice grains.
"Dad, this house is so nice, Tuantuan wants to live here forever."
"Of course, as long as Tuantuan likes it, we can live here for a lifetime." Lin Fan smiled and wiped the rice grains from the corner of his daughter's mouth.
Just then, a long-lost system notification sound suddenly rang in Lin Fan's mind.
