The message on the Attribute Panel made Lin extremely excited. He really wanted to open it right away to see what gift he had received and what was available in the store.
However, after hesitating for a while, Lin still chose not to click on those two messages. It wasn't the right time yet; both Fatty and the Poverty Old Man were nearby, making things too inconvenient.
After glancing at the flashing store button again, Lin took a deep breath and decided to suppress his excitement for now. He would wait until it was his turn to open those messages; it wouldn't be too late.
The 751 Hero Coins could only lie lonely in his backpack, waiting for the moment they could shine.
...
Regaining his composure, Lin turned to look at Fatty. During the time he had been observing the Attribute Panel, Fatty Chen had already stabilized the situation in the Live Streaming room and was starting the final procedure: tasting.
Lin's expression was calm, but his eyes were focused as he carefully observed every expression and movement of Fatty Chen. This phase was not only the most anticipated and quiet moment in the Live Streaming room but also a time for Lin to reflect on himself and identify any shortcomings in his dishes.
Fatty was a foodie, a true foodie. Although he didn't know what gourmet food was before meeting Lin, Fatty had a natural talent for tasting food. His senses were sharp, allowing him to easily pick up on all the details in a dish.
Over these days, Lin had been trying to improve his dishes with Martial Arts, and Fatty had also been making progress. His culinary talent was gradually being uncovered by Lin. With each tasting of the same dish, Fatty could find new sensations and breakthroughs, which also gave Lin something to think about.
Creating gourmet food requires an understanding of gourmet food itself, much like how every poem has its profound meaning that can only be interpreted by those who truly understand it.
Fatty was Lin's confidant, which is why Fatty Chen became Lin's first friend in this world. It wasn't just remnants of friendship from this body’s past; there was also a heartfelt connection from their new souls.
Just now, Fatty had been rambling for ten minutes to stabilize the situation in the Live Streaming room. According to his method, if they waited any longer, they wouldn't be able to eat the noodles. Gourmet food has a time limit; it must be consumed within a certain timeframe to truly savor its best flavor.
Holding a large Sea Bowl beside him, Fatty grabbed a pair of bamboo chopsticks and shouted loudly, "Everyone quiet! Next up, I'm going to eat this bowl of Cool Summer Noodles with Fried Sauce! Let me explain the taste of Cool Summer Noodles!"
After pausing for a moment, Fatty added mysteriously, "According to my standards, this is my highest level yet—better than anything I've made before!"
Live Streaming suddenly fell silent, and the scrolling comments disappeared.
Such a situation is rare in a Live Streaming room; it is hard to find a bustling Live Streaming session without comments, as everyone has different Personality traits, and there are always some who like to chime in during important moments.
However, in Lin's Live Streaming room, this was achieved. Everyone was too focused to comment; they were all fixated on Fatty, as if the one eating noodles was not Fatty, but themselves.
At that moment, Fatty felt a great sense of accomplishment. He could almost hear the sound of swallowed saliva through the screen, rising and falling like waves.
The Camera zoomed in for a close-up of Fatty's hands. Apart from the large Sea Bowl he held, viewers could only see Fatty's thick lips and dark chin.
The blue-patterned Sea Bowl was large, held in one hand by Fatty. The porcelain bowl, although a replica of Blue and White Porcelain, still looked quite exquisite.
The chopsticks were delicate bamboo ones, with fine textures spiraling along the shafts. They had just been pulled from ice water, still glistening with droplets. Holding them felt cool in his hand; the icy water had seeped into them, sending a refreshing sensation from his palm to his heart.
The pursuit of culinary excellence involves not just cooking but also selecting tableware and presentation, which are equally important.
As the close-up finished, Fatty began his Introduction: "Everyone take a look! This Azure Porcelain Bowl is specially customized by our brother, handcrafted using techniques from before the Galactic Era. The bamboo chopsticks were made by him personally; they have just been soaked in ice water, giving them a refreshing feel... Hmm, just from this bowl and chopsticks, you can tell our brother is a top-notch chef!"
Then, holding the Sea Bowl, Fatty took a careful sniff. "Smell that? The aroma of the sauce wafts up; this sauce is our brother's secret recipe. I can't reveal too much about the ingredients, but you should know it has a light sauce fragrance that makes you want to sprinkle it all over yourself just to enjoy it!"
...
"Eat quickly! Damn it, Fatty! Hurry up!"
"Fat Brother, I'm dying here! Stop showing off and taste it already!"
Live Streaming The anxious viewers couldn't wait any longer and started sending comments urging Fatty to eat quickly.
……
Fatty smiled; he knew the foreplay was almost over. He was also moving his throat, as the last two sentences had been spoken with saliva in his mouth. No one was more uncomfortable than him right now, holding back his appetite.
The Camera zoomed in on the Sea Bowl, revealing a white porcelain bowl filled with glistening noodles, layered and stacked, each strand shimmering with moisture, not sticking together. At the center, a dollop of fried sauce sat atop, dark brown with a hint of red that was barely noticeable unless looked at closely.
The Noodles with Fried Sauce looked like a work of art, making it hard to bring himself to eat.
Fatty clicked his tongue twice, shook his head, and pretended to sigh, “Don’t rush me. Look how beautiful my Cool Summer Noodles are. Can you bear to eat them?”
Then, Fatty’s thick lips curled up like two sausages, his oily black face breaking into a wide grin. With a change in tone, he declared, “But I can’t stand it anymore; it smells too good! I’m going to eat!”
Two bamboo chopsticks plunged into the sauce and then into the noodles, like twin dragons diving into the sea. He gently stirred them, and the lively noodles rolled and bounced against the bowl's walls before springing back. The elastic texture made him swallow repeatedly; he really wanted to taste what it was like.
The sauce was thoroughly mixed in, coating the white noodles completely. Upon closer inspection, one could see fine particles wrapped within the sauce, though it was unclear what they were.
“I’m going to eat!”
With a wide grin, Fatty felt saliva pooling in his mouth as he could no longer resist the temptation of the fragrant sauce. He picked up a bundle of noodles and placed them in his mouth.
“Slurp! Slurp!”
Fatty continuously sent noodles into his mouth; a full chopstick of noodles disappeared in an instant as he chewed carefully.
He kept moving his jaws up and down, suddenly stopping his actions. His pupils constricted sharply, and after chewing a few more times, he hurriedly swallowed. He had something to say!
“Refreshing... the true Refreshing sensation! The noodles enter your mouth with a light chill; this Refreshing feeling is like taking a bite of ice cream, so refreshing... On a hot summer day, eating Noodles with Fried Sauce gives you the same sensation as eating ice cream! Do you understand?”
Fatty pointed his chopsticks at the group of people on the screen and loudly questioned them!
...
“I don’t understand!”
“Fat Brother is mighty!”
“You're just bragging! Fatty! You're just bragging!”
The barrage of comments began to scroll again, completely covering the screen. The comments obscured Fatty's appearance; if one wanted to see Fatty continue talking, they would have to turn off the comments.
...
Shaking his chopsticks, Fatty scoffed, mocking the tourists who laughed at him and their ignorance.
“What do you know? These noodles are blanched in ice water after cooking, real ice water. It significantly removes the heat from the noodles while ensuring they remain smooth and not sticky.”
As he spoke, the Camera turned towards the kitchen, where a wooden bucket filled with ice water was placed next to the stove. You could still see unmelted ice cubes floating on the surface of the water.
“Noodles like this can only be made by my brother. The noodles outside have a cool sensation, while the inside hasn’t been soaked in cold water and still retains heat. Eating them won’t make you feel uncomfortable in your stomach.”
"I understand that the initial cold sensation comes from the ice water, but... where does this lasting chill come from? The original Cool Summer Noodles don't have this; after eating, there's a light coolness that lingers for a long time..."
Fatty puzzledly smacked his lips, furrowing his brows in thought. He picked up the noodles again, took a bite, but still couldn't figure it out.
"It's Ice Mint... an ancient plant whose juice gives a refreshing feeling... This ingredient hasn't appeared in a long time; it's amazing that it's being used now. What a brilliant idea!"
The Poverty Old Man, who had been silent, finally spoke up. He had already finished his bowl of Cool Summer Noodles and was now sitting in a chair, rubbing his slightly protruding belly while smacking his lips.
"Yes, I used the juice extracted from Ice Mint and dripped it into the ice bucket. This way, when you scoop the noodles, they carry a light mint flavor, mimicking the effect of lasting coolness..."
Lin's voice chimed in, filled with pride. Only when explaining his dishes did this emotion surface.
"Amazing! Truly amazing! I'll wait; let me finish this bowl of Cool Summer Noodles before explaining to everyone!"
Fatty could hardly contain himself. He picked up the noodles and continued to slurp them down. In no time, he had cleaned the entire bowl, licking up all the sauce before smacking his lips and sighing, "So delicious! Really so delicious! The ultimate version of Cool Summer Noodles; it's simply a different experience!"
With a loud bang, before Fatty could finish his sentence, he suddenly stood up, his whole body shivering and bumping into the surrounding tables and chairs with a creaking sound. The sudden occurrence caught everyone off guard.
...
"What's wrong with Fat Brother?"
"He's having an episode!!"
"Why is Fatty scaring us!"
The barrage of comments on the screen rolled more frantically, and most of the viewers were startled by Fatty's sudden action, complaining in dissatisfaction.
Only Lin and Poverty Old Man exchanged mysterious smiles; Lin had anticipated this moment, as it was the essence of the ultimate version of Cool Summer Noodles with Fried Sauce. Poverty Old Man had also experienced this sensation earlier, which is why he was prepared.
"That's incredible! Absolutely amazing! Brother, what on earth is in this bowl of Cool Summer Noodles that makes me feel a refreshing sensation emanating from my stomach? A slight chill spreads throughout my body, as if I've just walked out of an ice cave, dispersing all the heat around me!"
Fatty rubbed his arms, seemingly still a bit cold. The screen clearly showed that Fatty's arm hair was standing on end; he wasn't performing but genuinely experiencing this effect!
The Live Streaming chat exploded with questions about what was happening!
"The noodles are chewy and smooth, giving the sensation that they are dancing in your mouth. I won't elaborate further; everyone understands that it's due to my brother's unique kneading technique—he has infused Martial Arts into it!"
"The fried sauce has a subtle salty flavor with a hint of sweetness; these are characteristics of Cool Summer Noodles. Anyone who has tried them knows! But what astonishes me the most is this sudden burst of coolness! What exactly is going on?"
Fatty stared at Lin with his Mung Bean eyes, waiting for an explanation.
"Well... I haven't figured it out either."
Poverty Old Man murmured in agreement, looking at Lin with curiosity. It was rare for him to encounter a flavor he couldn't comprehend.
The Camera shifted to Lin, who sat upright in his chair. The surrounding light was dim, revealing only a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, the curve filled with mystery.
With a creaking sound, Lin stood up as his chair slid against the floor, returning to the screen with a smile.
"Alright, then, let me unveil the secret of 'Ultimate Cool Summer' for everyone today!"
Lin's words were filled with pride, and the smile on his face radiated confidence, possessing a Special charm that captivated and enchanted everyone around him!
...
The comments in the Live Streaming chat surged wildly once again, and it was hard to tell how many times this had happened today; they rolled in like a tidal wave!
The number of viewers continued to grow, increasing by thousands: 10,000, 20,000... until it finally stopped at 40,000!
"I'm so excited! This is the first time my brother is personally explaining Cool Summer Noodles!"
"Brother! I love you! Brother! I want to marry you!"
"Brother Xin for eternity!"
"Ahhh! I didn't get to try today's Ultimate Cool Summer! So it turns out what I had was just the inferior version!"
...
The viewers in the chat were going wild, sending comment after comment as they welcomed the king of this Live Streaming room, arriving at the ultimate secret they had been seeking for three months...
