124 Fat Otaku Joy Water
Indeed, the dishes in front of him were fragrant and delicious. Xiao Juan felt that there was nothing to be picky about.
But he still felt a little uncomfortable. So much so that his appetite instantly worsened.
He stopped touching the dishes and ate in silence.
When he finished the rice in his bowl, he put down his chopsticks and said indifferently.
“I’m done eating.”
Yu Niaoniao stopped eating and looked at him in surprise. “Is that all you’re eating?”
“Okay, eat slowly. I still have something to do.”
With that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
Yu Niaoniao finally realized that the man was not interested.
She could not be blamed for being too slow. It was really because Xiao Juan’s expression changed too little. He kept a straight face all day long and was really cold.
Without a level-ten psychology qualification, it was impossible to read any emotional changes on his iceberg of a face.
Yu Niaoniao hurriedly put down her bowl and chopsticks and reached out to grab his sleeve.
“Is today’s food not to your liking?”
Xiao Juan looked down at her and said calmly, “I have no appetite. It has nothing to do with these dishes.”
Yu Niaoniao leaned over and stared into his eyes.
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
He pulled back his sleeve and walked away.
Yu Niaoniao watched him leave and rubbed her chin in thought.
“It was fine before we ate. He just took a bite and lost his appetite. He must have thought the food was bad.”
With that in mind, she picked up her chopsticks again and put a piece of food into her mouth.
It was quite delicious!
She couldn’t resist taking two more bites.
Unknowingly, she finished two bowls of rice.
Yu Niaoniao touched her round belly and got up to go to the kitchen again.
She went to the small stove and lifted the lid to see that the liquid inside had been boiled to a reddish brown.
Yu Niaoniao got someone to bring over a pottery urn. She filtered the soup into the pottery urn and found a cool place to place it.
When she was done, she washed her hands, rolled up her sleeves, and prepared to cut the meat.
Seeing this, Pan Dafu immediately craned his neck to look in her direction.
He wanted to lean over and take a look, but he still had to keep an eye on the small stove and could not leave for the time being.
Yu Niaoniao minced the beef and added the ingredients to stir it evenly.
There was still some dough left from lunch.
Yu Niaoniao grabbed a piece of dough and cut it into equal-sized pieces of dough with medicinal ingredients. She rolled it into dough, wrapped it in beef stuffing, and fried it in a pot with hot oil.
She made two fragrant beef pies and cooked a simple bowl of mushroom tofu soup.
By this time, the soup in the pottery urn had almost cooled.
Yu Niaoniao poured fruit vinegar and homemade baking soda into it.
The moment the baking soda entered the water, tiny bubbles began to rise.
The Chinese herbal version of a cola was made!
Yu Niaoniao scooped a glass of the cola with a spoon and took a sip.
It didn’t taste as exciting as the soft drinks in modern society, but it wasn’t bad. It was sour and sweet, and it quenched her thirst.
Most importantly, it was low in calories and sodium. It was healthier to drink!
She turned to find Pan Dafu and the others looking at her eagerly.
She blushed. “Let’s all taste it.”
Everyone immediately gathered around and poured themselves a cola.
When they first tasted it, everyone felt that the taste was very strange and even did not dare to swallow it.
After two sips, they gradually tasted the beauty of the cola.
The thrill that exploded in their mouths, the sweetness that lingered in their mouths after they swallowed.
It was simply addictive!
Pan Dafu smacked his lips and said, “If this is paired with snacks, it will definitely taste better!”
He pressed for the name of the drink.
Yu Niaoniao blurted out, “Fat Otaku Joy Water.”
