Chapter 70: Hard-boiled Eggs!
Jason was at the front, and the wave wheel was close behind.
Emily was a little confused.
What happened?
Why did she and Bolun work hard for so long without getting anything, but now they achieved it so easily?
Just because of the invitation to eat?
No, it won't!
No way!
Although the food is delicious, it is compared to the knowledge of the 'mystical side'...... Hmm, it should be a little bit worse, right?
Emily originally wanted to say that it was fundamentally different, but after thinking about the delicious food just now, she felt that it was really unfair to compare it like this.
After all, the food is really delicious!
So, Emily changed the comparison.
But even so, she still didn't understand Jason's behavior.
"Everybody has something they care about, and although it's different, it's the purest thing in that person's heart—like Lord Jason, nothing else, just to eat."
Tonio said with a smile.
"Pure?"
Emily recalls this sentence over and over again.
She still didn't understand Jason, but she probably understood what Tonio meant.
"Does Lord Jason really like to eat?"
Emily asked in acknowledgment.
"Of course."
"There is no doubt about it."
"You know, if you don't really like to eat, you won't eat all the ingredients I have here, no, not only me, but the entire 'Street of Memories' except for the shop on the corner, it should have been eaten by His Excellency Jason, right?"
Tonio smiled and replied in the affirmative.
Emily, on the other hand, was stunned.
With Tonio's reminder, she remembered how much Jason had just eaten.
Dozens of people?
Hundreds?
She was a little out of her way to calculate, and eventually, she came up with a simpler conversion.
Even with what Tonio's restaurant had just eaten, it cost a total of 237592 dollars.
This is not a small number, enough for 2-3 average moderately wealthy families to spend for a year.
And that's just dinner.
Haven't counted late-night snacks yet!
At the thought of going to the 'Dining Pavilion' in a moment, Emily suddenly felt a little out of breath.
The 'food and wine pavilion' has a reputation, but the food is not said.
Naturally, the price is also quite expensive, although it is a little cheaper than the 'Cherry House', but thinking of Jason's meal, Emily suddenly feels that everything is so reasonable.
Wave wheel paid such a heavy price, naturally there should be a gain.
Call!
The girl breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn't know why it was the way it was, but things were going on the bright side.
"Thank you again for your hospitality."
Emily politely said goodbye to Tonyo.
When she bowed, she felt her abdomen swell a little, so much so that the bowing movement became a little difficult.
Eating too much!
I'm already in control!
The weight will go up!
I'll be fat!
The thought of what she would look like after she became fat made Emily's body tremble.
"Don't worry, the food I prepared for you is low-fat."
"Go ahead, Wave Wheel is waiting for you."
"And-"
After pointing outside, Tonio straightened out the chef's hat, apron, and especially the scarf that represented the chef's identity, and said solemnly, "Thank you for your patronage!" ”
Emily waved her hand as a farewell.
Then, he quickly caught up with Bolun and Jason.
"Can we go to the 'Dining Pavilion'?"
"I just ate too much and I want to digest it."
Emily walked beside Pola and poked her head in front of Pola with a pitiful look.
Bolun smiled and turned to look at Jason.
"Yes."
Jason nodded indifferently.
The 'Food and Wine Pavilion' is not far from the 'Memory Street', and it is possible for him to walk or take a car.
"Great!"
"I must control my diet!"
"Women, if they can't even control their own body, how can they control their own lives?"
Emily gave a soft cheer and began to clench her fists to cheer herself on.
Jason, however, didn't pay any attention to the girl.
His gaze swept ahead without a trace.
Just now, when he walked out of Tonio's restaurant, his extraordinary perception was able to keenly catch a lot of glances.
Although most of them have disappeared by now, there are still many of them.
The rest of the sight was full of doubt, scrutiny, and doubt.
And......
A touch of malice.
It's not pure kind, it's malice that comes from vigilance.
Jason, who has been watched too many times with pure malice, easily distinguishes all this.
At the same time, he was able to tell that there was no 'food' on these people.
Although he was late for an extra dinner, Jason didn't forget what he came to Memory Street for.
Look for 'food' to replenish satiety.
Now, however, this plan has to be postponed a little.
Definitely not because he's been looking forward to the 'Food and Wine Pavilion' for too long, just because Jason can confirm that the regular members of the 'Street of Memories' definitely don't have what he wants.
You have to find some key people.
Naturally, these key figures should all be 'big shots'.
Jason knows the troubles of dealing with the 'big guys'.
At the very least, he needs to have the chips that the other party wants.
And this is certainly not something that can be done in a short period of time.
Therefore –
"Let's go to the 'Food and Wine Pavilion' and finish the supper first!"
Jason thought in his heart, and suddenly, he let go of the only remaining trace of 'psychological burden', changed his plan, and began to look forward to the delicious taste of the 'Food and Wine Pavilion'.
And the wave wheel walking beside Jason is eager to open the 'Livia Notes' right now and continue learning.
Just casually flipping through it, the wave wheel has already determined, and the 'Livia Notes' is what he wants.
From the most basic methods of exercising the body, to advanced swordsmanship skills, to the knowledge of secret arts that touch the 'mysterious side', there is everything above.
Best of all, the above is the lingua franca translation!
This is so important to the Wave Wheel!
During this time, in addition to the ancient etiquette learned, the Wave Wheel also learned that the knowledge of the 'mystical side' was recorded in a special language.
"Those words that I can't read should be Tufuyu, right?"
"If I compare, I wonder if I can learn to figure and pluralize?"
The young man thought, but without a momentary pause.
He knew how he got the 'Livia Notes'.
I also remember my commitment clearly.
Since you have given a promise, do not break it. ’
The benefits of breaking promises are only temporary. ’
The loss of breaking a promise is permanent. ’
The words in the ancestor's notes were clearly remembered by the young people.
He would never drink to quench his thirst.
Quickly reining in his inner thoughts, the young man began to adjust his state.
His purpose was achieved.
But the story of 'human affection is a shield, and sophistication is a sword' is not over.
Even, at this moment, it has just begun.
Thinking of this, the young man smiled sincerely and looked at Jason.
"Excellency Jason, there are many menus in the 'Food and Wine Pavilion', but I recommend one dish."
"What dish?"
Bolun's words immediately piqued Jason's interest.
"Hard-boiled eggs!"
Bolun smiled and said the name of the dish.
Boiled egg?
Expectation suddenly appeared in Jason's eyes.
After 'looking up at the stars', Jason learned not to judge the taste of food by its name.
Hard-boiled eggs may seem simple, but it must be quite good to be included in the 'Sake Pavilion' and recommended by the Bowl.
Involuntarily, Jason quickened his pace.
Bolun smiled and followed.
Emily had to trot at a pace to keep up with the two.
"Hard-boiled eggs?"
"Why haven't I eaten it?"
"What does that taste like?"
Emily couldn't help but think, but right away, the girl shook her head and began to warn herself.
"No way!"
"Emily, you have to remember your weight!"
"You're already 42.25KG!"
"I'm going to be overweight soon!"
"But ......"
"It shouldn't matter if you eat a hard-boiled egg, right?"
……
The 'Food and Wine Pavilion' is really close to the 'Memory Street'.
Even if you walk, it only takes about 15 minutes at the speed of walking.
If you walk a little faster, you will be able to see the 'Shokuki' sign in 10 minutes.
Inconspicuous, it is a wooden sign hanging on a two-story building on the side of the road.
The building was supposed to blend in with the residential area behind it, but because of the negligence of its construction, it appeared in the corner alone, and it became a little out of place with the homely family townhouses that seemed to be warm.
However, the boss has been ingenious, using greenery and bonsai to blur the line.
Let the 'food and wine pavilion' look like it is integrated into a warm residential area, and there is an independent place there, making it a good restaurant.
Jason stood at the door, glanced at it, and confirmed that this was a very careful restaurant, and there was definitely no possibility that he would have a third bad memory, so he pushed the door straight in.
Jingle bells!
Crisp wind chimes.
A woman with a nice face, brown hair and red eyes appeared in the doorway.
There was no welcome, not a smile on his face.
First glanced at Jason coldly, and then looked at the wave wheel who walked in later.
"Master Bolun, is it great to be rich?"
The woman asked coldly.
"Hmm."
Bolun nodded honestly.
"You bastard!"
"You dare to say yes!"
"Do you really think that if you have money, you can do whatever you want?"
After seeing Bolun nodding, the woman who had been suppressing her anger broke out directly, she stepped forward, grabbed Bolun's collar, and actually lifted Bolun up like this.
With his feet off the ground, there was a suffocation in his throat, but Bolun was still smiling.
He looked at the half acquaintance in front of him, and his voice remained calm.
"You can really do whatever you want with money."
"If not."
"That's just that you're not rich enough!"
Such words completely angered the woman.
"Bastard!"
"Stinky little imp!"
"I'm going to sober you up! Awake! Completely break back your three views! ”
With such words, the woman stepped back, turned around, and exerted force on her waist, which was an over-the-shoulder fall.
"Ahh Wave Wheel! ”
Emily exclaimed worriedly.
However, to her surprise, the wave wheel was not smashed to the ground at all, but his body twisted in mid-air, and his feet fell to the ground.
Not only that, but the wave wheel also used the force of twisting to cut the woman's arm backwards.
Emily froze.
Does Bo Lun know martial arts?
It's going to be a little, the rough kind.
Although I keep exercising every day, my skills are really average.
Emily, who is a good friend, understands this.
That's why she's just worried.
Just now?
Could it be......
Instinctively, Emily looked in the direction of Bolun's chest.
There's 'Livia Notes' there!
Bolun has just learned the above tricks?
Emily thought, but immediately denied it.
She admits that Bolun is smart, but she can't be smart enough to look at it, right?
I must have practiced it secretly!
Hum!
You didn't even tell me!
Emily stared at the wave wheel with a huff.
She didn't see it at all, the surprise that flashed in Jason's eyes.
Compared to Emily's uncertainty, Jason had read the 'Rivia Notes' in detail, and he was completely sure that the wave wheel was using the freehand skills of the 'Silver Glory' hunters.
"You learned it at a glance?"
"Powerful talent!"
Jason couldn't help but think.
But that's it.
Compared to talent, Jason never thinks he is inferior.
Especially his talent for swordsmanship!
This is recognized by the old instructors.
"Let go of me!"
"You little bastard!"
The woman whose hands were cut off shouted loudly.
"Ms. Medori, as a waitress in a restaurant, if you still want to work here, I hope you can change your attitude, after all, I have been the owner of the 'food and wine pavilion' since the beginning."
Bolun said in his mouth and let go directly.
The woman took two steps back, anger in her eyes.
In the face of such anger, Bolun said sincerely.
"Do you think I took the 'Dining Pavilion'?"
"Or do you think I'm going to bankrupt the 'Dining Pavilion'?"
"Don't forget, I bought the 'Food and Wine Pavilion' at five times the market price, and renewed the contract with the chef here for 30 years at three times the market price, I paid so much, it's not a joke, I really want to run the 'Food and Wine Pavilion'."
"And I hope you can help me, Lady Medori."
"Help me, a young man who gave up his family inheritance in order to buy the 'Food and Wine Pavilion', and had to fight against the odds."
As he spoke, Bolun bowed.
Meadow was stunned.
"You gave up the inheritance of the Bolun family in order to buy the 'Food and Wine Pavilion'?"
The waitress asked incredulously.
Although the 'Food and Wine Pavilion' is very good, how does it compare to the Bolun family?
Which is more important, she, the waitress, also knows.
Bolun actually gave up the inheritance of the Bolun family for the sake of the 'Food and Wine Pavilion'!
Could it be that Bolun really likes the 'food and wine pavilion' from the bottom of his heart?
If it weren't for that, Médori couldn't imagine why Wave Wheel did it.
Thinking of this, the anger in the waitress's eyes as she looked at Bolun dissipated a lot.
She was just angry that the 'Dining Pavilion' had become a rich man's plaything.
And now?
It doesn't seem to be.
Thinking about it, Medori involuntarily moved her steps and got out of the way.
"I love food."
"I also like to bring food to people who can really appreciate it."
Wave said, turning to look at Jason.
"This is the first customer I have had since I took over the restaurant, and it is also the person who made me think this way and found another purpose in life, and he is also the person I recognize."
The young man made a false gesture and motioned for Jason to come with him.
Emily followed, quietly pinching the wheel.
"It's a lie again."
Emily whispered.
As a friend, Emily knew when Pola was serious and when she was lying.
"What's wrong with white lies for food?"
Polon replied to Emily, but his eyes turned to Jason.
He was relieved when he found out that Jason didn't have anything out of the ordinary.
He really didn't expect that there would be an accident in the banknote ability.
Thankfully, Lord Jason is not to blame.
Really......
My money, it's still too little.
Bolun thought silently.
As for 'lying' in front of Jason?
Isn't that a form of 'honesty'?
The host and guest are seated.
Bolun gestured to Medori.
"Start with a boiled egg and serve all the dishes over again."
"Hard-boiled eggs?!"
"All dishes?!"
Medori couldn't help but raise her voice, and a little blush appeared on her face.
Immediately, Medori realized that she shouldn't be here, and immediately, the waitress asked in disguise
"Can you eat?"
"I'm sorry."
"Please remove the 'we'."
"It's just Mr. Jason."
Bolun corrected Medori's words.
"He's alone?!"
"......"
"Okay, I see!"
The waitress tried to say something, but was interrupted by Bolun with a very stern look.
It was a look that was sharper than a knife, which made the waitress tremble in her heart, and she didn't say anything more.
The waitress turned and left.
Just as Polon was about to apologize to Jason, he noticed that Jason's eyes were on the doorway.
In an instant, Bolun guessed something.
He couldn't help but look at Emily on the menu, and sat up straight.
"I'm just going to see what's there, and I won't eat it!"
Just as Emily was about to say this, the door of the 'Dining Pavilion' was pushed open—
Jingle bells!
Wind chimes ring.
