School Beauty's Personal Martial Expert Chapter 201: At the Imperial Banquet, vinegar intentions fle

"Great!" Leng Xuan took a slice of rabbit at and put it in his mouth, chewed a few tis, then began to comnt, "Mmm, the taste is still very good, just a sha that it’s sumr and there’s no winter bamboo shoots to accompany it. The taste is slightly different from the last ti I had it, with a hint of gaminess, but overall it’s very nice."

Master Ling, clearly an expert in culinary indulgence, nodded continuously upon hearing this and said, "Not bad, you hit the nail on the head. Now, try this phoenix-tail shark fin soup and see how it is."

As told, Leng Xuan took so shark fin to taste, and after a mont, he said, "The soup is clear, the texture is tender, and the flavor is fresh; it’s practically perfect."

To validate Leng Xuan’s remarks, Master Ling followed suit and tried a bit of the dishes after Leng Xuan reviewed them. Hearing the praise, he couldn’t help but chuckle and said, "Well said." Then, after having Leng Xuan try two more dishes which hit the spot for him, he couldn’t help but give Leng Xuan a thumbs up, "I thought I knew more about food than almost anyone else in the world, but I didn’t expect soone of your young age to be scarcely any different from . Haha, if it weren’t for Xue Jiu not letting drink, I’d really like to have a few good drinks with you."

Leng Xuan smiled and said, "When Master Ling’s health improves, there will be plenty of opportunities."

Ling Xuejiu’s eyes went wide, as she had just been suspecting that Leng Xuan was pretending to know what he was talking about. But even Grandpa, who has exacting tastes, was praising Leng Xuan like this, and she realized he really was no simple character.

Li ngjie was thinking the sa and couldn’t help becoming even more curious about Leng Xuan.

Midway through the al, the Old Master suddenly rembered sothing and smiled at Leng Xuan, "Oh right, Leng Xuan, last night Xue Jiu ntioned you were busy in the kitchen. Does that an, aside from being her bodyguard, you’ve taken on a part-ti job as a chef too? Haha..."

Leng Xuan laughed awkwardly, as the matter wasn’t really by his choice but rather for allowing Xiao Yun more ti to review her lessons. Not sure how to answer, he then heard Li ngjie say with a giggly smile, "Yes, Grandpa Ling, the dishes Big Leng the bodyguard makes are so delicious, much better than the food the hotel used to send over."

"Is that so?" Ling Tian turned towards Leng Xuan with a smile and said, "You’ve really outdone yourself. I didn’t see it before, but you are quite skilled. If so girl were to marry you, wouldn’t she be in for a lifeti of good food?" As he said this, it was unclear whether it was intentional or not, but he glanced at his granddaughter.

Ling Xuejiu was also listening to her grandfather speak and, seeing him look at her after finishing, her cheeks flushed a vivid red, as radiant as a lily in the sunshine, truly breathtaking.

In fact, this young lady had a beauty that could rival that of a fairy, if only her temperant as a spoiled young miss wasn’t slightly off-putting.

Li ngjie also noticed that after Old Master Ling finished speaking, his gaze shifted to Ling Xuejiu. For so reason, it made her feel uncomfortably upset, though she didn’t show it on the surface and laughed, "Right, Xue Jiu, you should give it so thought!"

"What are you talking about?" Ling Xuejiu was already embarrassed by her grandfather’s look, and hearing Li ngjie’s comnt made her feel both shy and indignant. She didn’t dare look at Leng Xuan and glared at Li ngjie before pouting and saying, "Dead girl, if you like the dishes Leng Xuan makes so much, then you marry him!"
