I found a life simulator.

Hisako Shinto walked over somewhat annoyed and opened the door.

Then, she stood still, motionless.

They froze in place.

Nagi-ri Azami!

Erina Nakiri's biological father had heard some rumors about her from Erina's grandfather, Commander Senzaemon.

In order to hone Erina Nakiri's "God Tongue," Azami Nakiri underwent inhumane training, which made her so picky about food that she could no longer taste any of her classmates' dishes even in middle school.

Therefore, Hisako Shinto had no affection for him whatsoever; her feelings were mostly fear and worry.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Hisako Shinoto mustered all her courage and met Azami Nakiri's gaze.

His cold, indifferent eyes looked at her with the same contempt one would show to a commoner.

"Is Erina here?" Azami Nakiri asked casually. "It's been a long time since I've seen her, and I'd like to see her."

"Speak if you have something to say." Erina Nakiri slowly walked out of the restaurant. Her gaze met Azami Nakiri's without the slightest fear. This confident aura seemed to infect Hisako Shinodo, causing the trembling in Hisako Shinodo's heart to gradually fade away.

"My father wouldn't have come here just to see me, would he?" Erina Nakiri said softly, a hint of sadness flashing through her heart.

“My little Erina seems to have grown a lot,” Azami Nakiri said with some surprise. “After all, it’s rare for you to come to school, so I thought I’d come see you again.”

“It’s nothing major.” Nakiri Azami said it was nothing major, but then dropped a bombshell: “I plan to establish a new school next year.”

"When it comes time to recruit students, aren't there quite a few students at Totsuki Academy who failed the entrance exam?"

“I can take them in,” Azami Nakiri said casually.

"Shouldn't you consider those who failed the test as useless?" Erina Nakiri, who knew her father very well, couldn't help but ask.

“Indeed, they are useless.” Nakiri Azami nodded. “However, even useless people have value. Those who lack talent can simply learn how to cook other people’s dishes to create value and profit for me. They don’t need to pursue the true meaning of gourmet food.”

“I’m here just to ask, Erina, if you’d be interested in coming to my school?” Azami Nakiri made a suggestion that Erina Nakiri would never agree to.

“I refuse,” Erina Nakiri replied.

“Just as I expected, but if you don’t agree, someone else will.” Azami Nakiri said, his eyes slightly narrowed. “Three or four... five or six of the Elite Ten from Totsuki Academy will come to my school. Sounds pretty good, doesn’t it?”

"However, after this, I don't know if Totsuki Academy will still have any value?"

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, seemingly waiting for Erina Nakiri to process the news.

Azami Nakiri smiled, clapped his hands, turned around and said, "We've seen it all, and we've said everything. Let's just say goodbye."

Azami Nakiri's lips curved into a slight smile.

My dearest daughter, let me see where the future of God Tongue lies. With Totsuki Academy about to suffer a Waterloo, who can satisfy your desires?

He left with unhurried steps, without pausing at all.

And such important information.

It struck Erina Nakiri's mind.

The face of Totsuki Academy is the Totsuki Elite Ten. The intricate chain of interests involved is difficult to explain. Each of the Totsuki Elite Ten is not only skilled in cooking, but many are also heirs to various industries in the culinary world, making them of great significance to Totsuki Academy.

If his own father took all these people away...

It is not only impacting the status of Totsuki Academy, but also, in the short term, the important academic position of the Nakiri family in the Japanese culinary world. What kind of cohesion does an academy have if it cannot retain its talents?

This directly lowers the reputation of Totsuki Academy to its lowest point. If the next generation of Totsuki Academy fails to produce outstanding graduates while his father's school continues to thrive, his grandfather may very well lose his reputation in his later years.

The worst-case scenario is that even if I, with my God Tongue and Nakiri family identity, were to step in and take over the first seat of Totsuki Academy to confront my opponent, I would still be in a difficult situation.

Even if it means destroying the school that her father just established.

It could also be attributed to the power of the "God Tongue" in the public discourse, after all, he was the successor cultivated by the Nakiri family, not a representative of the general public.

This does not mean that Totsuki Academy has the ability to train students.

Moreover, Erina Nakiri vaguely remembered hearing about this matter, but she couldn't recall the details at all. In the future, who would care about what happened in the past? This is going to be very difficult to deal with.

At that moment, a name immediately came to mind for Erina Nakiri.

Her husband, Su Ze.

He is neither famous in the culinary world nor has any family background in the culinary world. His background is clean enough. More importantly, if Su Ze wants to marry him, he still needs to have a reputation in the culinary world. At least he needs to be approved by his grandfather. This change is Su Ze's chance to become famous in one fell swoop.

But what if, even so, her grandfather still disagreed with her marriage?

By then, I'll be old enough.

Erina Nakiri could simply elope.

With their combined abilities, they can manage to make a living. At worst, they can take out a loan together to buy a house and pay it off together!

The person I, Erina Nakiri, am going to marry.

Who can stop me?

Oops!

Erina Nakiri suddenly remembered something. Shouldn't she be thinking about how to resolve the trouble at Totsuki Academy? How did her thoughts turn to how to make her husband famous in one battle?

......

Chapter 21 Is he an idiot?

"Your dad is going to establish a new academy next year to compete with Totsuki Academy?" Su Ze continued the call, his expression unchanged.

"I have no recollection of this matter," Su Ze said after a moment's thought. He had been focused on his wife and children's lives and work ever since, and had no time to learn about what had happened in the past, especially since these were things that had already been resolved.

However, doesn't this prove that the problem that was solved wasn't a big problem in the first place?

"Are the Elite Ten of Totsuki going to be poached?" Su Ze nodded when he heard this news. He had also taken over the position of the Totsuki Commander-in-Chief, and not long after that.

He and Erina Nakiri then took over all of the Nakiri family's businesses together.

The main problem with this matter is that it's quite embarrassing, and the son-in-law has also been subservient to his father-in-law, indirectly competing with him. No matter how you look at it, it's a family scandal and a misfortune for a wealthy family.

In the future, it would be something Su Ze didn't want to see his kind old man, Senzaemon Nakiri, suffer a tarnished reputation and disgrace due to this.

Compared to his father-in-law, whom he had barely met even in the future and had never had a direct conversation with, Su Ze was clearly more inclined to side with the old man, Senzaemon Nakiri.

"Do you want me to transfer schools?" Su Ze asked. "If you need me to, I can transfer schools right away."

Erina Nakiri said on the other end of the phone, "There's no need to rush. My father's plan won't start until next year. This year, you should build up your reputation among the people first, and then you can transfer here next year."

"Why don't we talk to those Ten Heroes beforehand?" Su Ze asked in surprise. "Your father should still be in the process of turning them against you. If we can persuade the Ten Heroes not to be turned by your father, this matter will be easily resolved."

"No, I convinced them this time, but what about next time? And the time after that? Besides, I also want to know which individuals are dissatisfied with Totsuki Academy." Erina Nakiri thought Su Ze was an idiot.

Is he an idiot?

Ok?

If you resolve these issues beforehand, will you still have a chance to win over my grandfather?

When the Totsuki Ten were poached by his father, Su Ze transferred to Totsuki Academy. As the new Totsuki Ten, he challenged the traitorous Ten in a battle for culinary honor, taking on nine opponents at once and defeating all the renowned chefs at his father's school.

Isn't this the perfect opportunity for Su Ze to maximize his reputation?

It also helped Grandpa regain his dignity.

After what happened, his grandfather would surely have a better impression of Su Ze.

In this way, the external obstacles to Su Ze marrying her are greatly reduced.

You idiot! You can't believe you saw that!

“I’m also quite annoyed by traitors.” Su Ze nodded slightly. “If the goal is to catch the traitors in Totsuki Academy, clean out these people with ill intentions, and clean house, then this idea is not bad.”

Can't you be a little more mindful?

They didn't get my point at all.

The soul is weak.

"Aze, don't you think you need some help?" Erina Nakiri asked from the other end of the phone.

"What kind of assistance?" Su Ze was taken aback.

"Well, the capital to advance, some ambition or something." Erina Nakiri kept hinting at her thoughts.

"Absolutely not." Su Ze thought for a moment. Right now, all he wanted was to get through the dangerous period of his "cheating simulator" in peace. He didn't dare to have any ambition or drive.

What if there's some particularly horny woman who sees Su Ze's potential and clings to him relentlessly, even if he's not interested, but the "cheating simulator" does? Wouldn't he explode instantly?

"Su Ze! You're a hopeless idiot! Idiot! Idiot!" Erina Nakiri shouted angrily, pressing her mouth close to her phone.

Her hints were so obvious.

Even that idiot Su Ze couldn't guess her feelings.

Having lived with Suze for so long, Erina Nakiri had long noticed that Suze cared a lot about being a son-in-law rather than marrying Erina Nakiri.

This is a knot in my heart.

Having been given a second chance at life, Erina Nakiri will definitely change some things that can be changed in the future without causing conflict.

Marrying into someone's family can be transformed into marrying them.

As long as Su Ze has enough reputation and strength in the culinary world, and can demonstrate his potential and value, then as the owner of the God Tongue, it would indeed be quite difficult for him to marry her... the difficulty of winning her hand would be relatively high.

However, her grandfather was an open-minded person. As long as Su Ze performed well enough in all aspects, her grandfather should be able to accept the possibility of Su Ze marrying her.

However, this idiot never even thought of that.

I've been trying to pave the way for him all along.

Idiot! Fool! Moron!

The phone suddenly hung up, and Su Ze heard a busy tone in his ear. He wondered what little problem Erina Nakiri had gotten into again. Logically speaking, her tsundere syndrome should have been cured long ago, so how could it be a lifelong relapse?

I don't understand.

Women are indeed the most difficult creatures to understand.

Inside the apartment.

Su Ze prepared the ingredients he bought at half price from the supermarket. Although it was half price, the ingredients were still quite fresh.

When he selects ingredients at the supermarket, he still pays great attention to the quality of the ingredients.

"Zhenbai, help me film a video," Su Ze said from the kitchen. He wanted to upload videos of his homemade food to the internet.

"Hmm?" Shiina Mashiro walked towards the kitchen. "Filming a video?"

broken.

Is it possible that Zhenbai doesn't know how to make videos?

Was I being too harsh on Shiina Mashiro?

This little girl's self-care skills are really poor; I don't know how her parents raised her.

It seems like you're asking too much of her if you're hoping Shiina Mashiro will make a video for you.

I might as well just place my phone at an angle where it won't fall over and take some random photos. My idea for becoming a live streamer and food vlogger is just to test whether maintaining the original timeline will increase the red progress bar of [Nakiri Erina]'s life path.

"Brother-in-law, I'm hungry." Shiina Mashiro stared at Su Ze and stated her needs very directly.

"I'm cooking, this is your dinner tonight." Su Ze washed his hands and said, "By the way, Mashiro, I made you a meal, don't you want to do something too?"

"What are you doing?" Shiina Mashiro asked, puzzled.

"For example, paint me an oil painting or something." Su Ze said in a gentle tone as if teaching a 'child': "Interpersonal relationships are reciprocal. Generally speaking, if you treat others kindly, they will treat you kindly in return. However, scumbags are an exception."

"Of course, if you encounter someone you dislike or find annoying, don't give them face. Just keep disliking them. No matter what happens, your cousin will take care of it."

Because Shiina Mashiro calls Su Ze "brother-in-law" quite frequently.

Su Ze still tried his best to teach Shiina Mashiro to have the right values.

He talked while preparing the food in his hands.

A home-style dish was presented in Su Ze's hands.

After finishing, he placed it on a plate and made final adjustments to its appearance. When the video recording ended, Su Ze uploaded it to a well-known domestic ACG (Anime, Comics, and Games) website.

It's been a long time since we've seen a floating progress bar.

The figure has been increased by another 1%.

A meticulously crafted timeline is being woven step by step.
