Chapter 88: Chapter 80: Wicked Disciple, Are You Trying to Starve Your Master?
Zhang Lingxue’s pupils shrank rapidly. What is this divine aroma?
Just with this exotic fragrance, she felt she could devour three bowls of rice, which made her salivate quickly, and her stomach growl.
She was hungry.
Seeing Ye Bai looking at her with a surprised expression, Zhang Lingxue’s ears turned red. She lowered her head, her fringe hiding her eyes. She didn’t want Ye Bai to see her in such an embarrassed state.
How could she do something so inappropriate?
Right, what did she originally come here to do? (๑´ㅂ`๑) So hungry, she couldn’t remember.
Zhang Lingxue’s stomach continued to rumble, the excessive saliva made her unconsciously swallow.
She shook her head, trying to keep herself awake, but in a place surrounded by this aroma, she simply couldn’t.
Zhang Lingxue thought of leaving hastily to avoid further embarrassment, but her feet wouldn’t obey, as if they were forcibly glued to the floor with 502 glue.
Not only Zhang Lingxue was affected, but also the passersby on the street.
They were all bewitched by this exotic fragrance, their Divine Souls in turmoil, saliva flowing profusely.
Ye Bai quickly came over and shut the door heavily, startling Zhang Lingxue.
She wanted to say something, but as soon as the words reached her mouth, they were swallowed back down by her own saliva.
After closing the door, it seemed even more fragrant. So hungry.
Evil disciple, are you trying to starve your master to death?
"Teacher, you came just in time. I just made a dish today and was planning to invite you to taste it. I hadn’t even called yet, and you arrived."
"Indeed, our minds are connected telepathically."
Ye Bai said with a cheerful smile, leading Zhang Lingxue to the dining table.
There lay freshly roasted Wind Sparrows. Though each was only palm-sized, every one was quite substantial in portion.
The usual clucking Chicken, upon seeing the roasted Wind Sparrows, was so frightened it didn’t dare to breathe loudly, nor did it dare to relieve itself wherever, for fear of one day turning into a delicious roasted clucking Chicken.
The Little Charcoal Dog and Little Snow Dog surrounded each other, tongues out, their eyes fixed on the aromatic delicacy, unable to look away.
The Tier One Wind Sparrow may look small, but it contained a significant amount of energy. Ye Bai worried that the Little Snow Dog and Little Charcoal Dog might burst from the energy and only gave them one sparrow each.
But the meticulous Ye Bai had already divided them into seven portions equally based on size, ensuring that every Little Snow Dog and Little Charcoal Dog was taken care of.
Beside Big Gray and the Hundred-Change Silkworm was a plate as white as jade.
It too contained a roasted Wind Sparrow, still emitting white steam.
The Sunflowers preferred raw food instead, so they weren’t interested in the roasted Wind Sparrow.
"Teacher, please try my cooking."
Zhang Lingxue restrainedly used the chopsticks to nudge the Wind Sparrow’s belly, easily tearing open its abdomen, a large puff of white steam emerging, intensifying the aroma.
She picked up a piece and popped it into her mouth.
A crunch was heard as the outer skin was crispy, and inside the meat was juicy.
The meat slipped off the bone with just a gentle press of the tongue, simply melting in the mouth.
At that moment, she felt like a soaring Wind Sparrow, flying high in the sky with wings fluttering incessantly.
She was surrounded by countless Wind Sparrows, as if she had become their queen.
Soon Zhang Lingxue discovered that even its bones could be eaten, the bones were very crispy, and the marrow had a faint herbal fragrance.
As she ate, Zhang Lingxue realized that at some point, she started eating with her hands, her hands coated in grease.
Even the garlic and potatoes roasted in the Wind Sparrow’s oil were filled with rich fat, emitting a strong aroma.
No wonder people from the Iron Chicken Country cover their plates with a red cloth when eating Wind Sparrows, because it’s truly too delicious.
Everyone ate in silence at the table, only the sound of chewing was heard.
The Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm initially gulped down the first one like Pigsy eating Ginseng Fruit, not even tasting it before swallowing.
When it reached the second sparrow, after chewing with its teeth, it greatly regretted it, wishing it could slap its earlier self a dozen times.
Such a delicious thing, and it didn’t even taste it before swallowing it whole.
The Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm was filled with remorse when it realized, wanting to savor a few more, but its belly was so full it was stuck in its throat.
Ye Bai felt a warm current spreading through his body, all his accumulated fatigue dissipating.
After a satisfying meal, Ye Bai brewed a cup of Sunflower nectar for Zhang Lingxue.
At this time, Zhang Lingxue suddenly remembered why she came.
"Ye Bai, tomorrow your Grandmaster is coming to the research institute. We need to prepare the experimental report in advance. She will ask many questions, and you should be mentally prepared."
"Although I am her last disciple, in turn, her expectations are high for us. Be prepared to be scolded."
Zhang Lingxue gave a simple reminder and left with a confident stride.
It was only after Zhang Lingxue’s reminder that Ye Bai knew the exact time of the Grandmaster’s arrival.
"I might as well report yesterday about the undercover issue among the Grandmaster’s security personnel to the Pet Beast Union."
"If the Pet Beast Union can’t handle it, I’ll inform the teacher, so that the Grandmaster can take precautions in advance."
After eating his fill, Ye Bai felt a bit sleepy too. Fighting off the drowsiness, he continued to send an email to Chairman Wang.
