"Of course, I will, don’t worry!"
"Then go for it, I’ll share some experiences with you!"
Lin Fu nearly choked on her juice at Nolan’s words, "Cough cough cough... you have... experience in pursuing Major General Fu Xing?" Oh my! She had discovered a huge secret.
"No, that’s not what I meant." Nolan’s old face turned red.
Joshua couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
"Hahaha... I’m dying of laughter. When our foolish little brother was a kid, didn’t he always follow Fu Xing around? It’s completely true." Joshua obviously twisted the meaning of Nolan’s words on purpose.
Celia also pursed her lips lightly, her face softening a lot.
"Brother, shut up." Nolan yelled, not amused.
"Yes, yes, yes." Although Joshua agreed verbally, he still shared some embarrassing stories of Nolan’s childhood, and Lin Fu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, realizing she had misunderstood.
But were Nolan’s persistent tactics really effective?
She feared it was only because of Joshua’s face that Fu Xing paid any attention!
But it was worth a try.
During the three months of training, they were cut off from the outside world, and she had no idea how Fu Xing’s battles at the border were going.
The four of them ordered a large table of dishes, and when the food was served, Lin Fu was completely dumbfounded.
The taste and presentation were just to her liking.
"What’s wrong, Lin Fu? Is it not to your taste?" Celia asked subtly, "The Gourmet Restaurant has a very high approval rating on Capital Star and is one of the most popular restaurants on Star Network. Additionally, the owner used to be an Imperial Chef, and these dishes can’t be found anywhere else."
"That’s right, come and try this honey-roasted venison. It comes from a rare species on Green Star, where the vegetation cover reaches ninety percent, and you can’t find it on other planets."
Nolan picked up a piece of venison, enthusiastically savoring it.
Lin Fu took a bite and indeed, the taste was fresh, sweet, and crispy on the outside, with a juicy and tender inside, an exceptional delicacy. Moreover, the meat had a unique fragrance that she had never experienced in her past life.
This was the advantage of the diversity of species in the interstellar era; as the top of the food chain, human pursuit of good food had only increased.
But what was strange was that, due to the popularity of nutrient solutions, many people’s daily nutritional needs were entirely met by these solutions.
It was an ultimate contradiction.
"Eat more, we won’t have time to come back later."
With the delicacies before her, Lin Fu should have been enjoying her meal, but the sight of these dishes, which she thought only she knew about, left her with no appetite to savor the food.
"Could you tell me about the owner?" Lin Fu tried to sound as natural as possible, already having a good excuse in mind, "I’d like to get to know him a bit. After three months of training on Desolate Star, drinking nutrient solutions every day was too painful. I want to see if I can buy some spices from the owner so that I can cook for myself when I’m out."
"That’s a good idea." Nolan’s eyes lit up, "But we’ll have to trouble Celia for this; she has a close relationship with the owner of the Gourmet Restaurant, and other people’s influence might not be as effective as a single word from her."
Celia stood up and went out.
"Lin Fu." Nolan immediately whispered conspiratorially, "Ask for more, we might need them for when we compete, and remember to call me if you make something delicious."
"I don’t know how to cook!" Lin Fu feigned ignorance.
Nolan looked hurt, "You... you really don’t consider me a friend, I know it now."
"Know what?" Lin Fu asked innocently, blinking.
