Chapter 146: Lil’ Doggy, Is It Possible for Us to Trade My Chicken Drumstick for Your Sweet ’N’ Sour Ribs?

Translator: OnGoingWhy Editor: Vermillion

Ah Lu went into a daze as he stared blankly at the steaming plate of tangerine Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs in front of the big black dog. He forgot about the half-eaten chicken drumstick in his hand and even forgot to chew the meat in his mouth.

This Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs smelled really delicious. It was much more aromatic than the roast meat made by the old man from Qingyangzhen who taught them how to cook. With such a comparison, Ah Lu felt the chicken drumstick in his hand had become somewhat bland and tasteless.

Ah Lu gave the chicken drumstick in his hand a glance and then broke into a grin. He still shoved the chicken drumstick into his mouth and swallowed it after chewing a few times.

The big black dog was just about to heartily enjoy the Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs on its own when its body suddenly trembled for a moment. It immediately raised its head and discovered Ah Lu’s staring gaze. That gaze was filled with greed and yearning and its target was the Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs.

”How dare this human covet this lord dog’s Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs?!” Blacky was furious! It immediately stood up and blocked the view of the Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs with its body. With its buttocks facing Ah Lu, it rather proudly wagged its tail.

With his line of sight obstructed, Ah Lu could only reluctantly give up on chasing the food with his eyes. After he smacked his lips, he ran his tongue over his lips as if he was attempting to lick the fragrance of the Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs wafting in the air.

”Put your tongue back in your mouth, could you not behave like a chef who’s inexperienced with the ways of the world? If you’re going to act like this, please don’t tell anyone that you’re my brother!” Ah Wei knitted his eyebrows together and his face was almost scrunched together from revulsion. Even though he had to admit that the fragrance of the Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs was really not bad… his reaction was not as pathetic as Ah Lu’s.

Bu Fang turned around when he heard the voices behind him. With his eyebrows raised, he looked at the two strange people in surprise.

One of them was a large and fat person wearing an apron and the other was a skinny person with a large black wok on his back...

”What an unique duo, are they here to cause trouble?” Bu Fang thought.

”Who are you guys?” Bu Fang asked.

After receiving a scolding from Ah Wei, Ah Lu immediately pulled his tongue back into his mouth with much reluctance while still reminiscing the aroma of the Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs.

Ah Wei was somewhat puzzled as he gave Bu Fang a glance. After suspiciously sizing Bu Fang up from top to bottom, he opened his mouth and asked, ”Are you the one who made this Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs?”

This was a dish that possessed the finest presentation, aroma, and flavor. Without even having a careful observation, Ah Wei dared to conclude that this was definitely a classic and excellent plate of Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs!

However, how could a chef who appeared to be younger than him cook such an outstanding Sweet ’n’ Sour Ribs? Impossible… Ah Wei subconsciously shook his head. He was extremely confident of his own culinary skill. Ever since he was trained by the old man, the level of his culinary skill had been swiftly rising. There was definitely no way an ordinary chef could be better than him.

”I don’t believe you, you’re lying... Go and get the real chef,” Ah Wei said as he gave Bu Fang a glance.

Bu Fang was surprised for a moment and looked at Ah Wei as if he was looking at an idiot. What did he mean by get the real chef? Bu Fang was standing right there, who else was he looking for?

Bu Fang could not be bothered to deal with such an unreasonable person. He immediately went back into the store and headed into the kitchen.

Ah Wei knitted his eyebrows together as he looked at Bu Fang’s back figure. Did he make a mistake? That speechless gaze Bu Fang gave him before turning around made him question his life...

”Let’s go, Ah Lu. Let’s take a look inside this store,” Ah Wei lifted his sharp chin and said with a faint smile.
