Chapter 2270: Barbecue With Rice. She Knew How To Enjoy Her Food!

The cube-shaped beef was made into a kebab with bamboo sticks. The kebabs were spread out and sizzled with hot oil. The charcoal in the stove was burning bright red. The hot breath of life greeted her face and the man who was standing behind the grill, was Alex, who was supposed to be standing on the pinnacle.

This sensation… was rather amazing.

At least, that’s what Vicki was thinking about when she received a bunch of beef kebabs.

The aroma of the roast meat greeted her. The transparent fat glistened on the beef like little crystals and the sauce was carefully and uniformly spread over it. The grilled beef began to have a sheen and it looked exquisite and delicious.

Vicki had eaten a lot of grilled meat and many of them were even made by famous chefs.

They were plated on delicate plates and garnished intricately. They needed to be tasted elegantly with a knife and fork.

Now, she was holding onto a bamboo stick with five cubes of three centimeter wide beef. If you wanted to taste it, you had to grasp the beef kebab and bite off the topmost cube.

Mm…

It didn’t look like an elegant way to eat it.

However, Vicki wasn’t embarrassed by it. After all, she was no longer that pampered young mistress living in a high tower.

She was the Miss Black Cat that wandered around the Norland Continent for one year. She had brought her troupe members digging in the fields for missed out potatoes when they had no food.

Roasting some wild game that they caught occasionally over burning firewood was also a common occurrence.

She wouldn’t resist beef kebabs that were skewered by these clean and smooth bamboo sticks and precisely cut with great cutting skills.

The only thing that made her have reservations was whether she should eat more elegantly in front of Alex?

However, she hadn’t eaten much tonight and after watching Mag grill the meat and smelling the increasingly fragrant aroma as the meat got cooked, she really couldn’t hold herself back as she held onto the kebabs now.

Howl!

She ate one beef cube with each bite.

Vicki’s tiny face lit up immediately.

As soon as the beef entered her mouth, its slightly charred surface melted over her palate along with the garlic-flavored sauce. Garlic usually tasted sharp and overwhelming, but the flavor of this garlic sauce was very mellow and delicious.

As she chewed, the meat juice exploded in her mouth and the tender beef melted away too. The rich aroma of the meat dashed out and the scrumptious taste blossomed in her mouth. She could sense the taste buds cheering with every chew.

She felt as though she had fallen into a piping hot meat pool that was surrounded by raging flames, while a huge piece of grilled meat was placed in front of her. Should she choose to escape? Or continue to taste the scrumptiousness?

Unquestionably, she chose the latter!

“Phew…” Vicki let out a breath of hot air and put the bamboo stick down before saying to Mag with amazement, “This grilled beef is so delicious!”

Delicious! It had completely exceeded her expectations for scrumptiousness.

Just the beef kebab alone had defeated all the chefs that she had tried food from before.

They had lost very utterly and completely.

Even when they had specified that they had already grasped the essence of food with molecular gastronomy.

However, they seemed to have forgotten that delicious food needed a soul.

They had forgotten to add a hint of life and heat when they retrieved the food from the cold machinery to configure. Even when the texture and taste had reached the best level, it was difficult to give people shock and emotion.

However, the grilled meat that Mag made was different. Be it watching the beef slowly get cooked over the grill by its own fat, or feeling the warm air coming from the stove, or watching Mag flip the kebabs with his skilled and beautiful technique, they all infused a soul into the beef.

This was a beef kebab with soul. It was warm and delicious, and eating it was blissful.

Vicki had already picked up the second kebab. She bit off a beef cube and closed her eyes, feeling the blissful sensation that burst out in her mouth. The corners of her lips had already curved up as she revealed a happy and relaxed smile.

How amazing was that?! She actually got into a state of relaxation in front of a Norland Continent native, in front of Alex, whom she respected and was meeting for the first time.

However, this feeling felt rather comfortable.

“Is it really so delicious?” Xi looked at Vicki and retracted her gaze. She looked at the kebabs on her plate.

She had wanted Mag to make a helping of red braised pork for her and she kept her stomach empty for the entire day before she came.

Now, she intended to try this kebab first before she made her decision.

Of course, she was definitely going to have the red braised pork. After all, she had the free-for-life card for red braised pork, so she shouldn’t waste it.

After picking up a kebab and putting it in her mouth elegantly, Xi’s cool eyebrows raised up and her expression lit up too.

The mouthwatering sauce on the surface of the beef and the juices of the meat flowing in her mouth instantly awakened her taste buds. She only had to chew lightly to provoke an explosion of meaty juices within her mouth, which combined with the sauce and condiments to create an incredible flavor. She felt as if a fireball had exploded in her mouth, transforming into countless smaller fireballs that were stimulating her palate.

The more she chewed, the better it tasted, so she naturally chewed faster and faster. It was an interesting cycle. She chewed until she swallowed the meat into her stomach, yet the pleasant taste still lingered in her mouth.

Xi’s usually expressionless face had a rare uncontrollable smile.

Without any words, she bit off another cube of beef.

She closed her eyes and chewed slowly as a happy and satisfied smile appeared on her face. She no longer needed to be reserved about her usual tensed up expression.

What amazingly delicious food. It was comparable to the red braised pork!

It was another kind of tasting experience. Of course, the red braised pork still occupied an important position in her heart.

She opened her eyes and asked Mag, “Do you have rice?”

Barbecue with rice. She knew how to enjoy her food!

Mag flicked a glance at her and nodded. “I’ll go get some for you.”

It wasn’t just rice. There was also a pot of red braised pork kept warm in the kitchen.

Mag scooped up two bowls of rice. He came out with the red braised pork and placed it in front of Xi.

Anyway, he couldn’t get this woman drunk. He even suspected that he would be the one to get drunk first if he seriously tried.

“Red braised pork!” Xi’s eyes lit up and she began to look at Mag with a gentle gaze.

Sometimes, she had to admit that this man indeed does make one feel comfortable.

It was perfectly done. He made you feel well taken care of, as if he had already known what you were thinking, or perhaps… he had already anticipated it in advance.

Xi placed a bowl of rice in front of Vicki and made an introduction to her at the same time, “This is the red braised pork. It’s very scrumptious too.”
