People on the street were already noticing her.
Mona took two last breaths of the enticing aroma, then turned and left the entrance of the summer shop with great difficulty.
Afterwards, she wandered around the street somewhat absentmindedly.
The roadside stalls sell all kinds of snacks, steaming hot and with a wonderful aroma.
But Mona couldn't muster any interest at all.
Her mind was filled with thoughts of fish and cured meat.
As we strolled around, it was noon.
Mona remembered her promise to Charlotte and arrived at the entrance of the Glass Pavilion.
After waiting a short while, she saw Charlotte arrive.
Editor-in-Chief Xia brought two more of her intern reporters, different from the two from yesterday.
"Ms. Mona, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting!"
"It's okay, I just arrived too."
"Then let's go in."
"it is good."
A pretty waitress in uniform greeted us with a smile.
Charlotte showed her the small, exquisitely crafted gold card.
The waitress immediately put on a careful and attentive smile and led everyone through the hall into a large private room filled with luxury.
Mona felt that the service at Liuli Pavilion was very similar to that at Xinyue Pavilion.
Rumors have it that these two restaurants have been competing for years, and the saying "if you have it, I have it too" is probably true.
Charlotte handed over the menu from the table.
"Ms. Mona, let's order. What would you like to eat?"
"Let me see……"
"I recommend you try Liuliting's signature dishes, Yan Gang San Xian and dry pot cured pork, both of which taste very good."
"Is it?"
Upon hearing the words "cured meat," Mona's expression shifted slightly.
She couldn't help but think of the incredibly tempting aroma of cured meat she had smelled outside the small shop in the summer.
No, I can't think about it anymore, my mouth is watering again...
Mona quickly said, "Then let's order these two dishes."
"Liuli Pavilion mainly serves mountain delicacies, Teacher Mona, could you please order a couple more?"
"Then let's have another stir-fried wild mushroom...you guys can order more."
Mona pushed the menu back.
Charlotte smiled and handed the menu to the two interns, letting them each order a dish they liked.
Soon, the dishes were served.
Although the food was delicious and visually appealing, Mona wasn't as excited as she was when she ate at the New Moon Pavilion yesterday.
Because she always felt that the dish wasn't fragrant enough.
"Teacher Mona, come here!"
"Oh well."
Mona's first dish to try was the "dry pot cured pork".
It has a salty, savory, and oily taste upon first bite, and after careful chewing, there is a rich, smoky aftertaste.
good to eat.
But it's not tasty enough.
Although it tasted much better than the old lady's, it still couldn't satisfy Mona's craving for cured meat.
Ugh……
Isn't this supposed to be the most authentic Liyue cuisine? How come it's not as good as a roadside beverage shop?
Mona sighed silently to herself, feeling somewhat disappointed.
She looked up and noticed that Charlotte, who was beside her, had a faint look of disappointment on her face after taking a bite of cured meat.
Um? what happened?
Is Editor-in-Chief Xia really that picky about taste?
She maintained the same demeanor at Xinyuexuan yesterday, remaining very calm during the meal.
"Editor-in-Chief Xia."
"Ok?"
Don't you like cured meat?
"No, I quite like cured meat."
"Then why haven't you eaten much?"
"Oh... I just really love Mr. Xia's cured meat..."
"Mr. Xia?"
"He's the owner of the small shop in the summer."
"what?"
"Lady Ningguang and Mr. Xia are good friends. Sometimes she would take me to visit Mr. Xia's shop and we would stay for a meal together. To be honest, before I tasted Mr. Xia's cooking, I never knew that food could be made so delicious."
Charlotte's face showed a hint of reminiscence, and she smiled sheepishly.
"Ms. Mona may not understand what I'm saying, but after eating Mr. Xia's cooking, I really lost interest in other people's cooking, even the food made by the chefs of Xinyuexuan and Liuliting."
Mona paused for a moment.
She seemed to understand Charlotte.
After all, she had only smelled the aroma of the small shop in the summer a few times, and she already felt a little ungrateful.
If we actually get to eat the food cooked by that Mr. Xia, who knows...
Is this why Lady Ningguang favors him?

at night.
Because Senior Sister Gan Yu has already returned to Yuehai Pavilion.
So Shen He came over to keep him company again.
Having fully unlocked his emotions and expressions, Shen He naturally offers a unique experience.
The sound of the bells stopped.
Xia Zhi suddenly heard the system's voice in his mind.
"Due to the influence of [Lucky Husband], the host's luck value has been permanently increased by 0.01 points."
Xia Zhi was taken aback.
Is it really true that a woman who brings good fortune to her husband works this way?
"boss?"
"Shen He, let's do it again."
After half an hour.
"Due to the influence of [Lucky Husband], the host's luck value has been permanently increased by 0.01 points."
Then there is no more then.
To be honest, the bell and system sounds rang many more times.

"I bought another newspaper!"

"No, but there's a new astrology column."
"Oh?"
