McDonald's sells McNuggets, which come with two types of sauces: one is a sweet and sour sauce made from RB Sauce and pure apricot meat, and the other is a garlic sauce made from sugar, vinegar, chili, salt, and garlic.
Chen Zao prefers to eat McNuggets with sweet and sour sauce, so during this post-apocalyptic journey, he only took a repackaged bag of sweet and sour sauce. At that moment, he took it out from his storage space for Ren Xiao.
To emphasize the preciousness of this sauce, he had Ren Xiao extend her finger that she had licked and dabbed a bit of sweet and sour sauce onto the tip of her index finger, indicating to her, "Try dipping the chicken nugget in this sauce and see how it tastes."
Ren Xiao was salivating as she picked up a piece of fried chicken, carefully dipped it in the sauce, and then put it in her mouth—
Oh my!
The overwhelming pure sweet and sour flavor enveloped the deliciously crispy chicken nugget, nearly sending Ren Xiao into ecstasy!
"Mmm! Mmm!"
Words could no longer describe the burst of intertwined sweet and sour flavors on her taste buds. Ren Xiao kept mumbling with her mouth closed, her cute face displaying an expression of sheer delight.
Like autumn winds sweeping away leaves, this truly exquisite chicken nugget wiped away all the culinary memories stored in Ren Xiao's mind.
The so-called gourmet meals she had eaten before seemed insignificant compared to Chen Zao's chicken nuggets!
This was truly the kind of food that made her exclaim how beautiful the world is!
"Give me a little more sauce; this sauce is too delicious!"
After finishing another piece of fried chicken, Ren Xiao eagerly asked Chen Zao for more free sweet and sour sauce.
"Of course! The effort I put into making this sauce is no less than that of frying chicken. If I were to sell this packet of sauce, it would definitely be worth its weight in gold. Today, I'm giving you a special discount and throwing in a little extra, but if you want to have it again in the future, you'll have to pay for it."
"I'll pay! I'll pay!"
Overwhelmed by this unprecedented culinary experience, Ren Xiao felt her intelligence being wiped away as she devoured the remaining three pieces of fried chicken in one go.
By the end, she was licking her fingers clean, leaving not a trace of sauce behind, resembling a refugee who hadn't eaten for months.
"Seventh Sister, you've eaten everything I had. Shouldn't we head home to get some gold now?"
"Do you have any other delicious food?"
Ren Xiao's eyes sparkled as she tiptoed to peek into Chen Zao's backpack, hoping to find more soul-shaking delicacies.
Seeing the opportunity to end on a high note, Chen Zao opened her backpack and said, "There's nothing left; it's all empty. The only thing remaining are my tools for climbing mountains and crossing rivers. First, settle the bill with me. Once I have some funds, I'll go out into the wild to search for various delicious ingredients to cook."
Ren Xiao replied regretfully, "Alright then, come back with me. I'll get you some gold. Next time you make something tasty, you must come find me—I’ll buy it!"
"Naturally," Chen Zao thought smugly to herself, considering how she had a golden goose right in front of her that was ready to be plucked.
"However, I'm quite picky about cooking. If I can't find good ingredients, I won't easily start cooking. So it's uncertain when I'll be able to make something delicious. Just make sure you have the gold ready; once I do start cooking, the dishes I create will definitely not disappoint you."
"Mm-hmm! I believe in you! You're the most amazing chef I've ever seen—bar none! Those chefs in Tangling always compete for the title of Culinary King, but in my eyes, you're the true Culinary King who seeks neither fame nor fortune but possesses real skills, ideals, and aspirations! My Third Brother will definitely rave about your cooking and help make you Tangling's hottest top chef!"
"Ha ha, sure, when the opportunity arises, I'll let you, Third Brother, taste my cooking." Chen Zao added, "But it won't be for free. The ingredients I use are quite expensive; even a single grain of rice costs more than a bowl of meat from others. If you want to enjoy my culinary delights, you need to prepare some gold first."
"I understand. My Third Brother is wealthy; he definitely won't be like me and run up a tab. When you make your delicious food again, I'll help introduce you!"
"Alright. But let's not think too far ahead. First, go home and settle your debts with me. I'm currently short on funds and can't venture far to find quality ingredients. Once I have money, I'll definitely prepare more exquisite dishes for you."
Chen Zao was adamant about the gold, insisting that Ren Xiao pay first if he wanted to enjoy the food.
In such a wild and dark era, he wouldn't play the philanthropist.
He aimed to earn enough capital in this apocalyptic world to return and save his Golden Age.
Throughout the journey, Ren Xiao kept asking Chen Zao about culinary matters. Fortunately, Chen Zao was talkative and pretended to be profound, rambling on and making himself sound extraordinary, convincing Ren Xiao as if he had encountered a true deity.
Ren Xiao's admiration for Chen Zao was like the endless flow of a river, unceasing and overwhelming!
Even the way he addressed him became more affectionate: "Brother Zao, when you go far away to search for ingredients next time, take me along. Although my martial arts skills aren't that high, I'm sure I can help you quite a bit on the way."
"Well... let's discuss that later. I prefer to travel alone."
"Then let me be your apprentice! How about I learn cooking from you?"
"You won't be able to learn my culinary skills. Just enjoy them instead."
"Well... next time you make something delicious, you have to give me a big discount."
"I've already given you a significant discount. What, do you think my cooking isn't worth it?"
"No, no! The food you make is incredibly delicious! It's definitely worth it! After eating your dishes, I don't even want to eat what others make!"
Ren Xiao, after being excited for a moment, spoke with a hint of grievance: "It's just... I'm not as wealthy as you think. I'm afraid I won't be able to afford your food in the future."
"If you can't afford it, then you need to work hard to earn money! Do you know why I go through so much trouble to find such delicious ingredients? It's because I'm inspired by the flavors of this world! For that taste that can be etched in eternity in my heart, I'm willing to dedicate my entire life to it! This is the power that food gives me! In short—Truth! Goodness! Beauty!"
Ren Xiao was stirred by Chen Zao's passion and sincerely praised, "Brother Zao, you're so great! To meet a chef like you who has ideals and pursuits is truly a stroke of luck!"
To meet a silly girl like you is even more of a stroke of luck for me, he thought with a chuckle.
Chen Zao smiled proudly and pretentiously said, "As long as you know."
The two continued their lively conversation and soon arrived near Luohanpo Base.
Suddenly, the sound of galloping horses came from the side road.
It was a hunting cavalry unit from the Ren Family Army catching up.
