Chapter 699: Chapter 699: Improvent
“Hmm… the taste is not bad,” Xu Niannian’s lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, “It’s even better than the one I made before.”
“Really?” Liu Wendong asked excitedly.
“Yes!”
Xu Niannian nodded and asked him, “How did you think of adding lemon and passion fruit to it?”
eting Xu Niannian’s bright and clear eyes, Liu Wendong felt sowhat embarrassed. After all, she was a girl he had once had feelings for, and he still felt a bit uneasy in front of her.
It wasn’t that he still harbored feelings for Xu Niannian, but he simply felt awkward.
When Xu Niannian asked him about it, he scratched his head, “I’ve had your Butter Sauce many tis, and after a while, it felt a bit dry, and eating a lot at once could get a tad greasy. Acidic flavors can cut through the grease, right? I originally wanted to use vinegar, but vinegar isn’t very fragrant, so I thought of using pure natural acidity instead.”
As Liu Wendong was usually a man of few words, his lengthy explanation left Zhu Xinyu looking at him with puzzlent several tis, and then glancing at Xu Niannian. Suddenly, alarm bells went off in her mind.
“That’s a good idea; it’s tastier than the one I made.”
Liu Wendong quickly waved his hands and said modestly, “That’s because your recipe was good, allowing to make improvents.”
Xu Niannian laughed, her improvent on the Butter Sauce truly tasted a bit better than her previous version, but that didn’t an her cooking skills were inferior to his.
Seeing Zhu Xinyu looking at her warily all the ti, Xu Niannian found it amusing. She already had a child; what could possibly make Zhu Xinyu so vigilant?
She had noticed right from the mont she entered that Zhu Xinyu felt differently about Liu Wendong.
“Boss, since you also think it’s better than before, let’s continue making it according to the formula Liu Wendong has modified, okay?” Du Wenwen sincerely suggested.
Xu Niannian nodded, “Sure, you can make the decision.”
After talking in the kitchen for a while, Xu Niannian called Du Wenwen out to have a one-on-one chat.
She told Du Wenwen to find so chefs with good culinary skills to join them as she planned to bring the Butter Noodles to the mall in Hai City.
Although Du Wenwen was surprised, it was Xu Niannian’s instruction, and she had no doubts about it.
After taking care of things here, Xu Niannian was finally ready to go back to the countryside with Yang Cuihua.
Before they had even stepped out the door, Zhu Xinyu stopped them.
Yang Cuihua, confused, asked, “Xinyu girl, what are you doing?”
“Ah… I, I have sothing I want to say to Niannian,” Zhu Xinyu said uncomfortably.
Xu Niannian knew what she wanted to say and patted her shoulder with a smile, “If you have sothing on your mind, it’s better to ask Liu Wendong. He’ll give you a better answer.”
Zhu Xinyu’s eyes widened in surprise, “How do you know what I want to ask is related to him?”
“I’m not blind; can’t I see that you’re interested in him?”
Zhu Xinyu’s face turned bright red at once, “I’m not talking to you anymore. I’m going to find him.”
As it happened, Liu Wendong ca out looking for Zhu Xinyu, and she threw herself into his arms.
Seeing Zhu Xinyu grab Liu Wendong’s hand and run to the backyard without another word, Xu Niannian shook her head with a smile.
Chen Xiaorou was pregnant, so Xu Niannian and Yang Cuihua went to the Departnt Store to buy quite a few nourishing gifts for her.
Now that their family was not short of money, Yang Cuihua was especially generous, partly just to show off.
Yang Cuihua always had a heart that loved to show off.
An unstoppable kind.
On the way back to the countryside, Xu Niannian and Hu Yue’s hands were full of items, while Yang Cuihua walked empty-handed.
She wanted to help carry so of Xu Niannian’s load, but Xu Niannian insisted she not, leaving Yang Cuihua quite frustrated.
The three of them, carrying a heap of gifts, boarded the bus back to the countryside. To the people at that ti, the items they held were considered rarities.
The passengers on the bus couldn’t help but feel envious, and so even felt jealous.
