516: A gourmet restaurant that only the right people can come to

“That’s right, it’s 5e per serving. I’m not even that willing to sell it!” Tang Mo waved his hand and said, “But since it’s listed, if you’re really willing to spend 5e, I’ll make it for you. Don’t worry, it’s fair to all, worth only more, not less! For 5e a serving, you’re definitely getting a bargain!”

Tang Mo then looked at Yang Xingyao: “Of course, I don’t recommend you buy it.”

Yang Xingyao was a bit confused. Although her current pocket money wasn’t enough, if she used her private stash, buying a few servings would be no problem.

Hearing Tang Mo’s words, Yang Xingyao couldn’t help but ask, “Why don’t you recommend I buy it?”

Tang Mo shook his head slightly and said, “If you buy it, you won’t be able to eat it, and even if you do, it would be a complete waste.”

Yang Xingyao understood after hearing Tang Mo’s words.

To put it bluntly, she “didn’t deserve” it! She wasn’t worthy of such a good thing!

“Don’t overthink it. It’s simply because you’re too weak. Although it’s processed to be gentle and easy to absorb, my dishes will never cause anyone to explode from overeating. But if you eat it, some will precipitate, most will dissipate, and only a tiny bit will be absorbed. While it’s very nourishing and could at least help you break through again... it would truly be a great waste.” Tang Mo waved his hand and said, “You should just eat other things and take your time, building a solid foundation.”

“Understood!” Yang Xingyao nodded. Tang Mo naturally knew her identity as an ancient martial artist, a cultivator, after all, the things Tang Mo sold were clearly not for ordinary people.

Coupled with their “friendship” over these days, they were considered friends and had some understanding of each other. Of course, Tang Mo understood Yang Xingyao much more than Yang Xingyao understood Tang Mo.

Yang Xingyao only knew that Tang Mo was the owner of this shop, a chef, and that his dishes were not only incredibly delicious but also “top-tier cultivation resources.”

And most of Yang Xingyao’s “background” had been figured out by Tang Mo, although Yang Xingyao’s own initiative to speak was also a reason.

Tang Mo was so mysterious, Yang Xingyao was naturally happy to make his acquaintance. Putting everything else aside, just the food alone was enough.

“Then today, I’ll have one... fresh mushroom and mixed fungus thick soup! Plus two rice balls and one quick-fried pig liver!” Yang Xingyao ordered 5.2 million worth of food as soon as she opened her mouth.

Hmm! That seemed to be an extraordinary amount.

“Alright! Have a seat.” Tang Mo nodded, then walked into the kitchen.

Yang Xingyao sat at the table outside, looking at the incredibly clean tabletop. Yang Xingyao couldn’t help but exclaim, putting everything else aside, Tang Boss’s shop was truly clean!

Soon, as that familiar aroma wafted into her nostrils, Yang Xingyao knew her food was ready.

Sure enough, the next moment, she saw Tang Mo walk out of the kitchen, carrying a plate.

“Your ordered dishes are complete.” Tang Mo placed the plate in front of Yang Xingyao.

“Thank you, Tang Boss! Your food is never tiring no matter how much I eat! It’s just a bit expensive.” Yang Xingyao said.

“Excellent quality and reasonable price.” Tang Mo succinctly uttered four words.

“……” Yang Xingyao heard Tang Mo’s words, thought about it, opened her mouth but couldn’t speak.

Because in terms of cultivation resources, it was indeed excellent quality and reasonable price! Not only was the effect excellent, but it was also extremely gentle! There were no after-effects, side effects, or drug resistance.

Most importantly, it was delicious! Incredibly delicious!!! This was simply gospel for foodies!

Yang Xingyao ate gracefully and elegantly, but her eating speed was surprisingly fast.

Tang Mo watched Yang Xingyao with amusement. In the beginning, Yang Xingyao was not like this at all.

After all, she was a martial artist, and coupled with Yang Xingyao’s naturally outgoing personality, she was also very unreserved and ate very heartily.

Why had she started acting like a lady recently?

Wait... she wouldn’t be trying to “seduce” him, would she?

Tang Mo thought of this point, and combined with Yang Xingyao’s increasingly “familiar” demeanor recently, Tang Mo couldn’t help but look at Yang Xingyao with a puzzled expression.

“What’s wrong?” Yang Xingyao was very sensitive to gazes. Noticing Tang Mo staring at her, she couldn’t help but look at Tang Mo, then blinked, asking a little “nervously.”

“Nothing, it’s just that I’m not used to seeing you eat so ladylike.” Tang Mo shook his head slightly and said.

“……” Yang Xingyao heard Tang Mo’s words. Although she used to eat quite unreservedly, hearing Tang Mo say it now still gave her a pang of heartache.

“Cough cough, I’m meticulously enjoying the delicious food! Chewing slowly is naturally the best! And I can eat it for longer!” Yang Xingyao said.

“That’s good, I thought you had ideas about me!” Tang Mo heard Yang Xingyao’s words and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

“……” Yang Xingyao was choked by Tang Mo’s words, her face darkened as she finished the food in front of her.

Phew~ Delicious food still makes people happy!

It’s just that the person who makes the delicious food is a bit annoying!

Hmm! But for the sake of the delicious food, he’s not that annoying.

Yang Xingyao gently exhaled, watching Tang Mo come over and take away the bowls and chopsticks that she had “licked” very clean.

Tang Mo took the tidied bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen and poured them directly into a “box.” It was a dishwasher from the system; just throw them in, and they’d be clean, no fear of damage, because there was a cabinet next to it with clean, “unending” tableware.

Tang Mo walked out of the kitchen and saw Yang Xingyao still sitting there.

“Would you like some tea?” Tang Mo casually asked.

“Oh, yes! Is it also something good?” Yang Xingyao’s eyes lit up. Tang Boss’s things should all be good, right?

“No, it’s nothing good, just very ordinary green tea.” Tang Mo shook his head and said. This was bulk green tea he bought wholesale, the kind that costs 9.9 for a can.

“That’s fine too.” Yang Xingyao nodded, treating it as just drinking water.

Tang Mo nodded, and quickly brewed a pot of tea, then sat opposite Yang Xingyao and drank tea with her.

“Tang Boss, your shop is always empty. Don’t you do any promotions?” Yang Xingyao asked Tang Mo.

“Promotions? What’s there to promote? Those with affinity will naturally come.” Tang Mo shook his head and said. He didn’t care much about this; the satisfaction points and source points provided daily by the Cross-World Group alone were a huge profit.

Plus, he was indeed a bit of a slacker, content to be a small assistant.

“Hmm~” Yang Xingyao heard Tang Mo’s words, thought about it, and felt that Tang Mo was very right. This place was a treasure! She was the fated one!

Then she shouldn't promote it! Yang Xingyao decided contentedly.

Originally, Yang Xingyao had been thinking that since she had “occupied” it for so long, it was time to let her family members know about this place and bring them over...

Now that Tang Boss had said that, she felt it was absolutely right. Such a magical restaurant should only be “inhabited” by those with affinity! Moreover, Yang Xingyao was also afraid that too many people would come and “deplete” the food here.

She even worried that some ill-intentioned people might cause trouble for Tang Boss!

What Yang Xingyao didn’t know was that Tang Mo’s gourmet shop was indeed, as he said, only for those with affinity.

Those without affinity either couldn’t find it, couldn’t see it, or would even be “ignored.”

She was just lucky to get in. Even if she tried to bring others, she might discover such a strange thing.

However, fortunately, she didn't do so, so she never discovered this problem.

The people who occasionally came in on weekdays were all ordinary people, who were directly “scared away.”

Yang Xingyao understood, so she didn’t take it to heart.
