Chapter 1393: Even If You Turned Into A Girl…
Stunned, Parber left his hands extended before scrunching his face up and bursting in tears. As he cried, he complained, “Why am I not a cute little girl? I want to be a cute little girl…”
Gjerj apologized to the surrounding customers as he picked Parber sternly, and consoled, “Don’t cry, Parber. Father will carry you.”
“Father, I want to become a little girl,” Parber said with aggrievement and anticipation as he leaned into Gjerj’s arms and gradually stopped crying.
“It’s useless because you will still be rejected even if you turned into a girl as you’re not cute enough,” Parmer analyzed calmly.
“Yes. See how cute Christy is. Pink and tender, just like a little elf.” Amy nodded as she made funny faces at Christy.
“Woah. No. I want to be cute too. I also want to be hugged by big sisters.” Parber, who had stopped crying, started tearing up again. He looked utterly gutted with tears on his face.
“I will bring the child out to play for a while,” Gjerj said to Miranda helplessly. He had no choice now. Little Boss wouldn’t give him a chance to console that child, and the latter would affect the other customers’ dining experience, which wasn’t good.
“Let me see who is the little cutie that wants a hug?” a gentle voice spoke right then, and a colorful bubble floated over with a colorful fish swimming happily in it. The bubble stopped in front of Parber.
Parber’s attention was attracted by that bubble fish immediately. His eyes widened, and he stared at that bubble in disbelief.
“Little Cutie, can big sister carry you? Big sister will bring you to see the fish that can fly.” Gina came forward and talked to Parber gently as she blew at that bubble lightly. The bubble with the fish began to spin around Parber’s head.
“Mm-hm.” Parber’s attention was completely attracted by the bubble and the fish. Furthermore, this big sister was very gentle. He nodded without any hesitation, and let Gina pick him up.
“I will play with the child for a while. Please enjoy your meal,” Gina said to Gjerj smilingly as she carried Parber, and chased after the bubble toward the children’s play area. There were already five, six children playing in the small play area, chasing after the bubble fish. This allowed the parents to have a moment of relief.
“Thank goodness for Miss Gina.” Gjerj heaved a sigh of relief. She could always calm a crying child down in a minute.
“Woah. Christy, let’s go and play with a bubble fish. I will ask Big Sister Gina to make a pretty little goldfish for you.” Amy’s eyes lit up too. She informed Miranda before bringing Christy to the play area.
Gina made a tiny red goldfish bubble for Christy that swam slowly in front of her.
Christy raised her hand in an attempt to grab that tiny goldfish, and made soft chuckling sounds.
“Little Amy is such a kind child.” Miranda watched them with a smile.
“Yes. Little Boss is just like a little angel. Although she is a little straightforward with Parber, she is still a kind person like Boss Mag.” Gjerj also nodded with a smile. He wasn’t concerned about the matter that Parber was reduced to tears.
“Little angel?” Parmer supported his chin with his hand and pondered as he watched Amy’s back.
The customers continued to place their orders. Those who could accept the 1,000 copper coins price of the crayfish ordered one to try without any hesitation. After all, it took Boss Mag a five-day trip before he came up with this dish. Moreover, watching Little Boss’ demonstration had already whetted their appetite for it.
“Your crayfish.” Miya came up with a big tray, and placed four helpings of crayfish in front of Vanessa, Abraham, Lola, and Randy. Although Randy came a little late, he still happened to sit at the same table with them.
“Woah, this prawn is huge. Its head is even bigger than my palm,” Vanessa said in astonishment as she compared her hand with it.
Randy appraised the giant prawn, and commented, “Only the sea would have such a giant prawn. It will die very quickly after it’s removed from the water. I wonder how Boss Mag transported this prawn to Chaos City perfectly. If it is chilled, a flying steed has to be used to transport it to maintain its texture. The transportation cost would be exorbitant. Furthermore, there is still no way to make sure it won’t die on the road.”
“I still haven’t seen Boss Mag use unfresh ingredients before. We will know if it was alive after we try it out.” Abraham smiled and reached out for a pincer like how Amy did before. The shell was rather dry, and it was cracked in advance. Hence, he could pry open the shell easily to reveal the supple meat within.
“The meat is rather firm, which is not like those prawns that were thawed after being frozen for a long time,” Abraham said as he looked at the firm prawn meat before taking a bite.
“Oh!” Abraham’s eyes became bright instantly when he chewed on the tender and fat crayfish meat as the freshness blossomed immediately. All the spices’ taste had already seeped into it during the long braising period. Compared to the dry shell, the meat was soaked with gravy, and had a tinge of alcohol fragrance.
The slightly spicy texture didn’t cover the freshness of the meat. The teeth could even sense the bounciness of the texture after they bit down. That was a piece of scalp-numbing music.
As a man who had once represented the Roth Empire on a trip to the Demon Islands, Abraham had tasted the freshly caught and cooked king mantis shrimp. That fresh taste and taste were unforgettable.
However, compared to this crayfish, the king mantis shrimp that was deemed as the number one prawn on the Demon Islands by the Master Tony was utterly defeated.
Regardless if it was the freshness of the meat, the bouncy texture, or the taste brought upon by the amazing cooking techniques, Boss Mag’s braised crayfish had won over that king mantis shrimp hands down.
“I can guarantee with my reputation that this was definitely cooked with a fresh live prawn,” Abraham said gravely after swallowing the meat. “Moreover, this is the most delicious prawn that I have ever eaten. Without any comparison!”
“Oh?” Randy looked a little surprised. After this period of interaction with Abraham, he knew the latter was on par with him in terms of the knowledge of food. However, he still couldn’t believe Mag could transport marine prawns to Chaos City alive. He simply couldn’t imagine the cost.
Randy twisted the head off and looked at the full crayfish butter as the aroma greeted him. He used a spoon to scoop up the crayfish butter. The crayfish butter was very supple, and had no fishy smell at all. This was indeed very different from the frozen marine prawns that he had eaten in Chaos City before.
