I found a life simulator.

Su Ze's guess was indeed correct.

Once the corresponding event is performed, the red progress bar will advance naturally.

While eating birthday cake, they commemorated the long-awaited day of their breakup.

Looking at the readers' urging for more updates on the screen, I silently wiped away my tears.

Chapter 22: Just lick it and it'll be fine.

This progress bar quickly gave Su Ze a general framework: his connection with Erina Nakiri likely began with cooking.

During his down-on-his-luck period, he met Yukihira Joichiro, a renowned chef whose real name was Saiba Joichiro. With his guidance, Su Ze gradually entered the culinary world, working as an assistant in various restaurants to learn cooking skills.

()

That's not enough.

In the process of learning to cook, given my personality, I might make some regular dishes and upload them online to preserve the memory of cooking, thus reinforcing my understanding.

It's also possible that he was genuinely down on his luck at the time and still had the idea of ​​earning money by using the number of views on his videos.

However, judging from the fact that the progress bar has only increased by 1%, this should not be the main content. Su Ze still has not grasped the information about the breakthrough events that Su Ze and Erina Nakiri made in the past timeline.

Do not!

Su Ze suddenly remembered the phone call that Erina Nakiri had just made to him, about the huge changes at Totsuki Academy. Could this be a significant event that would lead to a breakthrough?

He resolved the problem himself, made his first meeting, gradually developed feelings for each other, and eventually established a relationship.

During the thinking process.

Shiina Mashiro had finished eating the food Su Ze had made, and then she stood there motionless as if in a daze.

"The food was delicious, thank you." Shiina Mashiro said slowly and deliberately when Su Ze turned around and looked at her.

Shiina Mashiro's poor self-care ability stems from her childhood environment. Moreover, due to her outstanding talent and family background, when she was being cared for by others, no one dared to provide her with proper guidance.

This is the result of parental inaction.

However, Shiina Mashiro is a bit naive, but that doesn't mean she can't understand what others are saying. Although she needs to absorb things little by little each time she understands, she is slowly absorbing what Su Ze is saying.

Shiina Mashiro thought for a moment, realizing that she had eaten her brother-in-law's cooking, and responded with basic gratitude as instructed by him.

"Then help me wash the dishes!" Su Ze said, pointing to the plates on the table.

Shiina Mashiro picked up the bowl and carelessly tossed it into the sink, making a crisp sound.

Su Ze was stunned.

Okay, he admits he overestimated the sense of responsibility of Shiina Mashiro's parents. Did they completely throw her into the ocean of painting and never care about Shiina Mashiro's normal life?

This child is quite pitiful to have parents like these.

Su Ze said irritably, "Fine, I'll wash the dishes. You can leave now. Next time you wash the dishes, be gentler and don't use so much force."

Looking at the broken plates in the sink, Su Ze deliberately pretended to wash the dishes. After Shiina Mashiro left the kitchen, he reached out to clean up the mess, but his fingers accidentally touched a sharp spot, causing a slight oozing of blood.

Su Ze frowned slightly.

Su Ze threw the broken plates into the trash can, wrapped them in a black plastic bag, and planned to secretly dispose of the scraps later.

As I walked out of the kitchen.

Su Ze noticed that Shiina Mashiro was standing at the door.

"Brother-in-law, are you angry?" Shiina Mashiro said without any emotion. If anyone else had said this, Su Ze would have thought they were just being sarcastic.

"No." Su Ze completely treated Shiina Mashiro as his daughter, as a child. He had no reason to get angry with a child, and besides, it wasn't Shiina Mashiro's intention.

It's clear from Shiina Mashiro's performance that things are trending in a positive direction.

Su Ze might only feel annoyed if the other person ate the food and took it for granted, without even thinking about washing the dishes.

"Why is it bleeding?" Shiina Mashiro's gaze fell on Su Ze's index finger, and she pointed at it as she spoke.

"I hurt myself by accident," Su Ze replied.

At this time.

Shiina Mashiro took Su Ze's hands in her own, put her index finger, which had been accidentally scratched by shards, into her mouth, and gently held it, as if she were licking Su Ze's wound.

Su Ze slowly opened his eyes.

next second.

Shiina Mashiro released Su Ze's hand.

“Rita said that if you get hurt, just lick it and it will be fine,” Shiina Mashiro said casually, seemingly unaware that she had done something ‘remarkable’.

She tilted her head and said, "The wound will heal."

Something is going to happen!

Su Ze's perspective unconsciously drifted towards the interface of the [Cheating Simulator], but Shiina Mashiro's name still did not appear on the screen.

Fortunately.

Shiina Mashiro probably didn't think about the concept of 'liking'; this action was likely unconscious.

but.

If Erina Nakiri saw this scene...

I'll probably get killed!

There was no room for explanation; they were killed on the spot!

"Mashiro, do you understand what 'brother-in-law' means?" Su Ze said seriously, his survival instinct was extremely strong, and he had to figure out the concept of "brother-in-law" with Shiina Mashiro.

"Brother-in-law? My sister's husband." Shiina Mashiro thought for a moment and gave the correct answer.

“Yes, I am your sister’s husband, and our current behavior is too intimate; it has crossed the line between brother-in-law and cousin,” Su Ze continued, conveying positive values.

“I take care of you because you’re my wife’s cousin. It’s only natural that I cook for you and pick you up from school,” Su Ze said calmly.

"You only need to thank me for what I have to do with you. There's no need for you to take care of me. Taking care of me is something your sister should do."

"Do you understand?" Su Ze asked, taking a deep breath.

Shiina Mashiro nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

If Erina Nakiri and Suze end up living together, Suze must find a way to get Erina Nakiri and Mashiro Shiina to sleep together, so that Erina can take care of Mashiro Shiina.

Stop trying to do anything fancy with him.

Su Ze's identity really makes him unsuitable to teach Shiina Mashiro, this student and daughter.

"Get some rest and don't stay up late," Su Ze advised before hurrying back to his bedroom. Tomorrow was the weekend, and he had to go to his rented restaurant in the morning to clean it up.

Prepare for the judgment of the Tongue of God.

However, the judging of God Tongue is not as simple as having Erina Nakiri make the evaluation alone.

Erina Nakiri will be present, along with three other judges, as well as a photography and documentary team to record the judging process.

While Erina Nakiri's evaluation, the owner of God Tongue, is the core of the main content, at least two of the other three judges must also give positive reviews before God Tongue can give a high score and the entire process is recorded in the file.

Under normal circumstances, after God Tongue gives a positive review, the three judges will also give positive reviews in turn. These three judges serve as mascots to prove that God Tongue has not cheated.

This also means that dishes that receive high scores from the God Tongue reviewers often become hot topics in the culinary world in the short term, and may even attract a constant stream of local foodies.

Su Ze returned to this era, and the first stepping stone to fame was right here.

Inside the living room.

Watching Su Ze flee in disarray.

Shiina Mashiro was a little puzzled, but her confusion didn't last long. Soon, she turned on the TV and waited for today's program.

Thank you to tzn's girlfriend for the donation.

You're stupid!

Guys, you guys are really rich!

Chapter 23 Husband, show off your skills to the fullest!

A remote location.

On the edge of a sparsely populated street.

Inside a restaurant, Su Ze was cleaning the place, sweating profusely. He had arrived early with the ingredients he had prepared.

After putting the ingredients in the refrigerator, I started cleaning the long-closed restaurant.

The judging panel of God's Tongue will arrive at the battlefield in half an hour.

On the sparsely populated street, more and more people came out one after another. These were all food lovers, including some fans who wanted to see Erina Nakiri in person.

After all, the judging panel of the God Tongue usually informs the outside world a day in advance which restaurant they will be judging this time, in order to enhance the authority of the God Tongue and increase the restaurant's popularity.

This is why countless businesses welcome God Tongue's reviews.

As long as it's not too bad, it can increase brand awareness to some extent.

Su Ze hadn't expected so many spectators to gather before the God Tongue judging even started. It wasn't that he was afraid of the scene, but rather he was thinking about how to make this judging session the best it could be.

The time on the clock inside the store slowly ticked away.

Outside the restaurant that Su Ze rented, the noise outside gradually grew louder.

The entrance to the restaurant.

A figure appeared in Su Ze's line of sight. Her steps were slow, but each step was graceful and powerful, and her face carried a faint air of 'arrogance' and 'disdain'.

Erina Nakiri, with her affected demeanor and queen-like aura, descended upon this little-known restaurant, her powerful presence eliciting gasps of surprise from the spectators outside.

Although Erina Nakiri's charm had been seen in food magazines and TV shows, the audience found her appearance in person to be even more dazzling and captivating than it had been in those magazines and shows.

In order to welcome the jury of the God Tongue, Suze specially put three tables together and reserved a separate table for Erina Nakiri.

Erina Nakiri sat in a separate seat, smiling gently. Even though it was just a simple smile, it exuded confidence. Her temperament, smile, status, and identity amplified her charm.

The spectators watching from the sidelines couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Is this the kind of genius nurtured by wealthy and noble families?

The queen of the culinary world—just looking at her aura is enough to overwhelm you. It's unimaginable what dish could possibly conquer the tongue of God.

And behind Erina Nakiri.

The three judges, dressed in formal suits, introduced themselves.

“Roland Chapel,” the first blond member of the judging panel introduced. He was also the head of the French cuisine department and a lecturer at Totsuki Culinary Academy.

Logically speaking, there's no need for such a large judging panel; some well-known chefs in the country would suffice.

However, at Erina Nakiri's request, this time a divine lineup was assembled. Any one of the members could easily become the head chef of certain specialty dishes at any World Gastronomy Association (WGO) three-star rated restaurant, or even appear as a judge on some food programs.

This is also true.

The judging of this year's God Tongue competition has garnered particular attention.

Clearly, no one was optimistic about the outcome of this God Tongue judging competition. The contestants were too formidable. Not to mention Erina Nakiri, the other judges alone all held prominent positions in the culinary world.

It's unclear whether the owner of this small shop offended Erina Nakiri or the Nakiri family, to be subjected to such a brutal attack. Some onlookers couldn't help but shake their heads.

After Roland's self-introduction, the second judge also smiled kindly and said, "Ono Shikatarou."

Following the previous French chef.

This is the Ono family, a renowned sushi restaurant under the Nakiri family. In Japan, the Ono family has brought sushi culture to its peak, and the Ono family is the only sushi family that has achieved a three-star rating from the World Food Council.

It could even be said that the Ono family is the only culinary family that has taken sushi cooking to its highest level.

Ono Shikataro is the current head of the Ono family.

After the young man, Erina Nakiri, repeatedly mentioned the high level of culinary skills of the owner of this small shop, he came to serve as a member of the judging panel out of respect for the Nakiri family.

The third member of the judging panel is no less important than the other two. He is Yasushi Fukuyama, a researcher of Japanese-Chinese cuisine, who became a master chef in his forties.
