Food Wars, my food not only glows!

　"Mine is made of pure copper."

　"Actually, no. The bronze medals in these competitions are usually made of a mixture of brass and some alloys."

　Hearing Erina Nakiri's voice from not far away and seeing her caressing the medal, Bai Yuan turned around and explained, as he knew quite a bit about this.

　"I see."

　Erina Nakiri paused for a moment after hearing this, then nodded knowingly. She took two steps forward to stand in front of Bai Yuan, blinked her big eyes, and asked curiously, "The competition is over. Are we going straight back now? I feel like there are still so many delicious foods I haven't tried yet."

　"Directly... what do you mean?"

　Upon hearing Erina Nakiri's words, Bai Yuan was about to suggest going straight back, but then hesitated and slowed down, turning his gaze to the others.

　The sight of so many girls walking together on the street immediately attracted a lot of attention, with everyone looking on with curiosity.

　However, when they saw Bai Yuan among the girls, their expressions changed to disbelief, as if they never expected that a man would randomly appear where the girls were gathered. It was unbelievable!

　Suddenly, many people around them looked on with envy and jealousy.

　However, Bai Yuan, Nakiri Erina, and the others didn't care about any of that. At that moment, they were thinking about whether to leave directly or stay and play for another two days.

　"Or maybe I should stay. I'm very interested in Fuzhou's red yeast rice, but I haven't had much time to go there to cook red yeast rice dishes lately because I've been watching the competition."

　Ryoko Sakaki's voice rang out, expressing her thoughts.

　She was very interested in Fuzhou's red lees, a type of wine lees, and her expertise was in fermented dishes, which was a perfect match for her major.

　If she can learn all the red yeast rice dishes in Fuzhou and apply them in a practical way, her skills will definitely grow at an amazing speed.

　"I want to try the local specialties!"

　Seeing that Ryoko Sakaki had spoken, Yuuki Yoshino excitedly raised her hand and shared her thoughts.

　She has been here for almost half a month and has eaten a lot of delicious food, but there are still many dishes she has not tried, so she wants to stay.

　"Everyone wants to stay, so let's stay here for a few more days. You still owe me a date, and you're in a good mood after winning the championship today, so come shopping with me!"

　As she spoke, Alice Nakiri grabbed Bai Yuan's hand and said to him with a sweet smile.

　"Okay, okay, I'll make it all up for you."

　Faced with Alice Nakiri's coquettishness, Bai Yuan smiled indulgently. It was indeed commendable that she had won the championship in this competition.

　After all, given her ability, winning the championship can be considered an extraordinary performance.

　However, this is what Alice Nakiri deserves. Her attitude of never giving up until the very last moment is deeply imprinted in the hearts of Bai Yuan and the audience.

　"yeah!"

　Upon hearing Bai Yuan's reply, Alice Nakiri's face lit up with joy. She then wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him deeply.

　"Okay, we're still on the street, let's kiss when we get back."

　There were too many gazes around them, and they were too intense. Everyone was staring at them intently, and even Bai Yuan felt embarrassed at this moment.

　"Let them watch if they want! We'll just keep doing our own thing."

　At this moment, Alice Nakiri's face was also a little red, but she was unusually assertive, clearly very excited to have won the match.

　Otherwise, no matter how daring one is normally, they would never do such a thing.

　"They're so loving."

　Hisako Shinto stood by, watching this scene.

　She smiled like an aunt, only stopping when she noticed Erina Nakiri's subtle envious gaze.

　The only person who would dare to act so coquettishly with Bai Yuan on the spot is probably none other than Alice Nakiri.

　"We're going on a date now. You can go back first, or wander around the area. It's up to you."

　Seeing that Alice Nakiri had been hugging and kissing him for a long time before finally letting go, Bai Yuan held her in his arms and cherished her for a while before speaking to the girls who had stopped with him not far away.

　"Let's not be third wheels, Megumi, Ryoko, shall we go to that mall we went to a few days ago? I heard they have a really great new dessert there!"

　"I want to go! I've wanted to eat the desserts at that mall for so long."

　Upon hearing Yoshino Yuuki's words, Tadokoro Megumi immediately showed excitement, clearly indicating that she really liked the desserts at that shopping mall.

　"I'll come too."

　Ryoko Sakaki looked at the two excited people with a gentle expression on her face, and then stepped forward.

　"Are you guys going to get dessert? I haven't had any in a while, can I have some too?"

　Hearing the conversation between the three, Leah rushed forward, blinking her big eyes, wanting to join in, mainly because she really wanted to eat dessert.

　"Teacher Leah, do you want to come too? Sure!"

　Upon hearing Lia's voice, the three who were about to leave stopped, exchanged glances, and then Yoshino Yuuki stepped forward and took her arm.

　"Mito, Liu Yu, how about we work together?"

　"I'm fine, let's go together."

　"I don't have a problem either."

　Watching the four figures disappear, Hojo Miyoko turned her gaze to Mito Ikumi and Liu Yu not far away and extended an invitation to them.

　The three of them were all alone, and they had no other choice but to huddle together for warmth.

　Although you can go out alone, it's a rare treat to go out and have fun together, so it's definitely more fun than going out alone. You can also exchange cooking tips while eating.

　"Hisako, let's go."

　Seeing this, Erina Nakiri merely glanced at it coldly before speaking to Hisako Shinoto, who was already waiting beside her.

　"Yes, Erina-sama."

　Hisako Shirato nodded and followed Erina Nakiri.

　“Let’s go. Didn’t you say you really wanted to eat at a Hong Kong-style cafe? I’ll take you there this time.”

　Fuzhou is right next to Guangdong, and many chefs from Guangdong have settled here, so you can definitely enjoy authentic Cantonese morning tea!

　Bai Yuan's voice was light and cheerful. He was always the most excited when talking about food. Just like at this moment, he was eager for Nakiri Alice to taste Cantonese dim sum, a flavor that would bring joy.

　"You actually remember that? I think it was something I casually mentioned to you one night."

　As Bai Yuan pulled her forward and listened to him speak, Alice Nakiri showed surprise on her face, clearly not expecting that he would remember such a small matter.

　"After all, you were so eager for it back then, crying and saying you wanted it, how could I not remember it vividly?"

　Thinking of Alice Nakiri that day, Bai Yuan curled his lip and began to complain.

　"What do you mean you're drooling? I was just..."

　As if she had thought of something, Alice Nakiri's face turned visibly red. Then she glared at him with a faint smile, biting her lower lip, finding it difficult to speak. What was this guy trying to trick her into saying?

　"Okay, the reason doesn't matter. What matters is that you want to eat, right? Since that's the case, let's go eat. I'm also feeling a bit hungry."

　Seeing Alice Nakiri pouting with an adorable expression, Bai Yuan couldn't help but stop and pinch her lips, slowing his pace and speaking sincerely.

　"Ok!"

　Alice Nakiri nodded emphatically, a slight smile playing on her lips. It felt so good to be cared for!

　After the Youth Chef Competition ended, Bai Yuan stayed in Fuzhou for another seven days.

　During this time, with the introduction of the president of the Fujian Chefs Association, Bai Yuan privately challenged six well-known high-star chefs, successfully adding several new names to his Food Wars recipes.

　Every chef who competed with him praised him as a young prodigy, their words sincere and clearly heartfelt.

　Bai Yuan responded humbly to this.

　Seven days later, with the start of the school year approaching, the group took a private plane directly to Far Moon.

　As for why they still need to go to school to become top-tier chefs, it's mainly because Alice Nakiri and the others are still young, and the environment at Totsuki Culinary Academy can inspire them to better study cooking.

　Secondly, staying at school doesn't mean you can't participate in competitions.

　If they want to go to the outside world to participate in competitions, Totsuki Academy will not have any intention of blocking them, and will even provide financial assistance.

　Of course, the most important thing is that Bai Yuan needs a good environment to hide himself and allow his power time to grow.

　In terms of remoteness and seclusion, Totsuki Academy, a second-rate academy hidden in Japan, is an excellent place that doesn't usually attract media attention!

　Hakubuchi and the others, arranged by Senzaemon Nakiri, returned to Totsuki Culinary Arts.

　Upon arrival, they attended a welcome banquet specially organized for them.

　The location is at Bai Yuan's house.

　"I never expected you could achieve such results!"

　He raised his wine glass and clinked it against Bai Yuan's.

　Senzaemon Nakiri's voice revealed a hint of disbelief. Even he hadn't expected that Shirai would lead Alice Nakiri to win the Fujian Youth Chef Competition!

　It should be noted that in previous years, the youngest recipients of this honor were over twenty years old.

　Alice Nakiri is only fifteen years old, yet she has already won the championship of the Young Chef Competition, which is enough to prove her immense potential!

　Given time, under Bai Yuan's tutelage, Nakiri Alice will definitely become a chef who surpasses him! The future of the Nakiri family has been entrusted to someone!

　Alice's strength is already sufficient; she just lacks combat experience.

　Having now honed her skills through the Fujian Youth Chef Competition, her abilities will undoubtedly undergo a dramatic transformation within a month.

　After clinking glasses with Senzaemon Nakiri, Hakugen spoke as he sipped his wine.

　"It's all thanks to Teacher Bai Yuan's excellent teaching!"

　Senzaemon Nakiri didn't hold back in his praise, speaking it naturally, and it was all from the bottom of his heart.

　After all, the subject is the youngest special-grade seven-star chef in history. Even if he ruins the person, he will still praise them. Moreover, Bai Yuan has trained Nakiri Alice and Nakiri Erina very well.

　"Their talent is also an important factor. After all, carving rotten wood into shape is much more difficult than carving a good piece of wood."

　Bai Yuan readily accepted Senzaemon Nakiri's praise, glancing at Erina Nakiri and Alice as he spoke.

　The two sisters were sitting at a table, eavesdropping on the conversation between Bai Yuan and Nakiri Senzaemon, their faces flushed.

　When they heard Bai Yuan praise their talents, they couldn't help but smile.

　If they were praised by an ordinary person, they would just take it for granted, after all, they are geniuses, and stating facts would not make them happy.

　But the person praising them was Bai Yuan, the greatest genius in the world, and at this moment, their sense of pride was extremely strong!

Volume 1: Transmigrating Through Food Wars, Becoming Alice Nakiri's Master: Chapter 287: Sonoka Kikuchi's Loneliness

　"The teacher is skilled, and the students are intelligent. Even the best wood is just a piece of wood without a skilled carver, and it has no value whatsoever."

　Looking at Bai Yuan, Senzaemon Nakiri spoke from the bottom of his heart. Even if it is a rare gem, if it is not discovered and polished to perfectly showcase its advantages, its value is extremely limited.

　"Drink, drink."

　"Alright, we're having a great time today, let's drink until we drop!"

　Senzaemon Nakiri's voice was filled with satisfaction, and he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

　Clearly, he was genuinely proud to have Bai Yuan as his son-in-law.

　Seeing the old man's happiness, Bai Yuan couldn't help but drink a couple more cups.

　However, he had a very high alcohol tolerance; after drinking several bottles of baijiu, he felt nothing at all, and didn't even flinch.

　On the contrary, the girls who were chatting in twos and threes around them started out laughing and joking, but later they became drunk and slurred incoherently. Some even lay on the table and snored very evenly.

　Of course, besides being drunk, they were also exhausted from a long day's journey.

　"It's getting late, so I'll take my leave now."

　Seeing this scene, Senzaemon Nakiri knew he should leave; no one wanted their good time to be disturbed by an old man.

　To avoid disturbing Bai Yuan's enjoyment, he stood up from his chair.

　"I will send you back."

　Although it was unexpected that Senzaemon Nakiri would leave so early, Hakugen still got up to see him off.

　"No need, I'm not at the point where I can't handle such a small amount of wine."
