Chapter 75: This Roujiamo Can Help Lose Weight?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mag brought two roujiamos for Harrison first. He had put the bread in the oven at intervals, so they couldn’t be ready at the same time.
Besides, roujiamo was a dish best served hot when the tasty gravy was still seeping in and wouldn’t detract from the soft and crunchy texture of the bread. So, even if a customer ordered many, Mag would serve him at intervals, and those who ordered first would be served first.
“Please enjoy,” Mag said, smiling. He went back into the kitchen.
“Smells terrific!” the one in red observed, his eyes fixed on the roujiamo as he sniffed the strong aroma. “Harrison, let me take a bite!” he said expectantly while Harrison was holding one roujiamo in each hand. 1
“Yeah, pass it along!” the one in cyan said, leaning over. The lean meat and fat in the bai ji bread was very appetizing.
Harrison shook his head without hesitation. He would have shared other food with them, but not this roujiamo.
He didn’t get to eat any for breakfast, and had waited a whole morning. To be sure, Yangzhou fried rice was great, but it wouldn’t make him feel high like this roujiamo would do. “Be patient. I’ll dig into it now,” he said with a grin as they stared at him, craving. 1
Is it really that good? they wondered.
Harrison was always an easygoing person. Normally, he would share his food with pleasure; however, today he wouldn’t even let them take a bite to taste it. His abnormal behavior raised their anticipation for the dish.
Harrison lifted his right hand to take a large bite. His eyes closed spontaneously as he felt the gourmet food melting on his tongue. This feeling of pleasure put a smile on his face.
His friends couldn’t divert their eyes. Despite themselves, they, too, all swallowed as he swallowed contentedly.
They couldn’t feel what he was feeling, but the usually picky Harrison’s satisfied smile said it all.
It was as if he had been shocked by electricity. Harrison’s fat was starting to shake slightly because of the rushing blood. A sheen of sweat appeared on his face, but he was really enjoying it. He took another bite, and his whole body was shaking.
That’s how it helps? they wondered, watching Harrison. They didn’t believe him when he said it could lose weight, but now, they found themselves wrong.
Other customers had noticed Harrison’s unusual state as well. In astonishment, they took a look at the roujiamo in their hand, and then at the one in his, but they found nothing different about it. They could feel their blood running wild, but they didn’t understand why he was acting so dramatically.
Harrison’s friends watched as he finished his first roujiamo, and swallowed countless times. Finally, Mag walked out with five roujiamos and served one to each of them. They came here together and were really good friends, so they didn’t care who got served first. 1
“Ugly Duckling, watch closely. You don’t want to miss this.” Amy lifted the kitten up higher against her chest and widened her eyes. 2
Mag also stopped at the counter and looked back. Six fatties are eating roujiamo together. We don’t come across something like this every day. 2
They studied the roujiamos in their hands and saw the white bread with chopped lean meat and fat inside. They were always bragging about how they had tried everything in the whole city, but they were seeing this kind of bread for the very first time. Their appetite was so whetted by the pleasant aroma and Harrison’s swallowing that they all brought the roujiamos to their mouths immediately.
Harrison smiled at his friends. They will love its taste. He started eating his second one.
“Ah…”
They let out a satisfied sound in delight almost at the same time. Their voice was not very loud, but they were so in sync that other customers watched them with surprise. 2
Those who had tried this roujiamo knew the sound was a spontaneous reaction of the body. It was genuine, and felt so good that it was out of control.
So, other customers didn’t find them annoying; instead, they were really enjoying themselves because they were in exactly the same embarrassing situation as they had been.
Their enjoyment turned to astonishment quickly.
They found the fat on the six fatties was starting to shiver. The fat on their calves, legs, bellies, and necks was shaking like waves. They were making waves just by sitting together! 9
Other customers were tempted to laugh, but thought better of it. They couldn’t avert their eyes as they watched the waves, holding back their laughter.
The small-eyed man’s face got red, trying to refrain from laughing out. He would have guffawed if he hadn’t known better.
“It’s so funny!” Amy clapped her little hands merrily. Never had she seen such an amusing reaction. These fatties can’t control their fat! 1
“Meow…” Ugly Duckling lifted its pink paws to cover its eyes. They scared it. 1
It’s truly exceptionally beautiful… Mag couldn’t help laughing, and turned to go to the kitchen immediately. Obviously, roujiamo is working very well on extra fat people. This could become a selling point for certain people.
The six fatties were completely lost in the delicious taste of the food, and paid no mind to what other people were thinking. They were savoring the unprecedented gourmet dish as they felt their fat shaking.
Gjergj put down the bag slowly, not quite satisfied. “It’s so delicious and can make me lose weight, no less! Maybe only God is able to devise a dish this magical.” 1
Harrison nodded in agreement. “Mag is truly a genius.” After two roujiamos, he was not quite full; one more was enough.
This roujiamo can help lose weight? Other customers’ faces lit up as they heard this. They all had one or two friends who were fat and fond of eating. If it’s true, I’ll bring my fat friends here next time. 1
