Chapter 244 Breakfast
Chapter 244 Breakfast
"This is just an energy fruit. It can enhance the energy of alien races and even increase their chances of breaking through bottlenecks."
"However, this is a fake energy fruit. This thing is a new failed product tinkered with by one of our research institutes, and now only I and that group of researchers know about it. So Fei Bo definitely doesn't know, and it can be used to lure him, as he has been in a bottleneck period for a long time."
"Once the outer shell is broken, it will release energy fluctuations exactly like a real energy fruit. However, since it's fake, it will gradually dissipate after half an hour until it disappears. This is a sample they gave me; there's only one."
Originally, Melos didn't want to pay attention to Louis, but Lin Xiyue kept pushing him, as if he couldn't get away with not explaining himself clearly.
Finally, having no other choice, he opened the door again, stood in the doorway, and explained the cube to Louis in detail with a sour face.
"(⊙o⊙)...Um, Boss Mo, one last question. How do you break this thing? It looks so hard."
Louis played with the cube in his hand and squeezed it hard. It felt very hard and didn't seem like it could be broken easily.
"Just input the energy, and it will start to dissolve with just a little bit. Don't input it now, I don't have any spares here."
After speaking, Meros made a gesture as if he was about to close the door.
"Okay, okay. ヽ( ̄▽ ̄)? Boss Mo, Boss Lin, have a nice evening."
"Also, Boss Mo, everything you might need is in the bedside table, you know what I mean."
Louis thanked Meros for his explanation, and then, as he was leaving, he whispered something to Meros without letting Lin Xiyue hear it.
"Okay, you can go now. Don't come looking for me if it's not done properly."
Meros's eyes lit up, and then he hurriedly chased people away.
"Have you finished talking?"
While Meros and Louis were discussing the specific functions of the cube, Lin Xiyue got a little hungry and went to find something to eat.
She walked over, eating a banana, and asked Meros.
"Yes, honey, we're done talking. Are you hungry now?"
With a smile on his face, Moros approached Lin Xiyue and saw her eating fruit.
"Yeah, it's all your fault! <( ̄ ﹌  ̄)>"
Speaking of this, Lin Xiyue immediately thought of the good deeds that Moros had done.
"Okay, okay, it's all my fault. Here, I brought you some food. If it weren't for that brat Louis coming over to bother you, my darling would have finished eating already."
Meros quickly admitted his mistake and then immediately took out the food he had prepared beforehand from his own space.
A small basket of steamed buns, a bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean pork, and a plate of butter cookies shaped like little stars.
"Wow!"
With a gasp of surprise, Lin Xiyue's eyes lit up instantly, as if two dazzling stars were twinkling.
She gazed at the sumptuous breakfast before her with delight, and couldn't help but cheer. Then, she eagerly pulled up a chair, quickly sat down, and reached for the food with both hands.
She first stretched out her right hand and steadily picked up a steaming hot bun. With a gentle bite, the bun's skin broke open, and an enticing aroma wafted out.
Upon closer inspection, it turns out to be a steamed bun filled with shredded pork with garlic sauce!
The ingredients in the filling are clearly visible: crisp and tender wood ear mushroom strips, juicy and tender meat strips, brightly colored carrot strips, and green and red chili strips. They are intertwined to create a colorful culinary picture.
Lin Xiyue put the bun into her mouth and chewed it carefully.
In an instant, a myriad of wonderful flavors burst forth on the tongue—the saltiness was just right, the sourness whetted the appetite, the sweetness brought pleasure, the spiciness stimulated the taste buds, the aroma was irresistible, the umami was abundant, and the rich fragrance of scallions added a perfect finishing touch. All the flavors blended together perfectly, leaving a lingering aftertaste. This bun is simply a delicacy!
Before she could even swallow the bun in her mouth, Lin Xiyue's gaze was drawn to a bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean pork next to her.
She quickly picked up a spoon and carefully scooped up a spoonful.
Upon closer inspection, the porridge was perfectly cooked; every grain of rice had burst open and emitted a rich aroma.
She gently blew away the steam from the surface of the porridge, then slowly put the spoonful into her mouth.
The moment it enters your mouth, the rich aroma of rice spreads through your mouth like a warm current.
Then, the aroma of meat rises up, blending with the fragrance of rice. Finally, the unique and captivating flavor of the preserved egg slowly unfolds deep in the throat, adding a distinctive touch to the entire taste experience.
"Mmm, so delicious!"
Lin Xiyue ate heartily while muttering indistinctly.
She was already starving, and the delicious breakfast in front of her only increased her appetite. She wolfed it down, eating so fast that she didn't even have time to talk.
"Eat slowly, don't rush, all of this is yours, no one is going to take it from you."
Sitting quietly to the side, Moros watched Lin Xiyue eat, his eyes full of doting and concern. He occasionally offered gentle reminders.
However, Lin Xiyue was completely immersed in the world of food and had no time to care about anything else.
"Hey! There are cookies too?!"
After Lin Xiyue had almost finished eating, she noticed the little star-shaped cookies next to her.
These cookies are colorful, and each one is a cute little star.
Wow! It tastes like pineapple! (???)
Lin Xiyue picked up a small yellow star, took a bite, and said with some surprise.
"Yes, when I went to the meeting before, I tried a bite and found that you would like it, so I brought them all back for you."
"Meros said, with a hint of seeking praise," he said.
Wow! You're amazing! ☆( ̄▽ ̄)/$:*
Lin Xiyue also praised her enthusiastically.
"Then, what about my reward?"
Moros looked at Lin Xiyue expectantly, indicating that she should reward him.
"Well……"
"Here, have a reward. Hehehe. (*^▽^*)"
Lin Xiyue thought for a moment, and under Molos's expectant gaze, she handed him a small pink star.
“You know, honey, that’s not the reward I want.”
Meros looked at Lin Xiyue with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"Hmm...hehehe, this is pretty good! It's so delicious. (*^▽^*)"
Lin Xiyue subtly rubbed her waist, intending to play dumb and get away with it.
"Well--"
Meros didn't give her a chance to fool him. Without saying a word, he leaned down and kissed her.
She was the first to receive a kiss filled with the aroma of breakfast.
"A delicious breakfast, baby."
"Meros said meaningfully."
