The Guide of How to Be an Interstellar Tycoon

67-68

"Distinguished judges, I have to remind you to eat them before they get cold. They won't taste as good as now." Gu Bai had to remind them since they all indulged in their thoughts because he had one more dish to serve.

"Yeah, sure. With such beautiful names, the dishes will surely be delicious." As the only female judge among the five, Si Xiao couldn't help feeling sentimental and picked up from the nearest dish.

While thinking about the stories of these dishes, she put them in her mouth. The feelings strengthened the flavors and made it hard for her to stop eating.

Soon, they finished all four dishes.

"Xiaobai, you've made a total of five dishes. What's the last one?" Zhou Cegu looked at the two black things besides the tray and hesitated.

Everyone else's attention was focused on the mud as well. Even the fans couldn't help feeling nervous.

Although they trusted Gu Bai, they were still worried that he might embarrass himself this time.

"It's also a well-known dish, actually. People know it as beggers' chicken, but I prefer to call it gracefully, i.e., An Inseparable Couple of Birds. It originated from Bai Juyi's poem, which is called Song of Eternal Sorrow. In heaven, let us be two birds flying ever together, and on earth, two trees with branches interlocked together. Heaven and earth may not last forever, but this sorrow was eternal. That's what he said. It's about a story..."

[Oh, my god. Why would anyone write such romantic things? His explanation just drives me to love again.]

[I didn't expect that Xiaobai would know so much. I love his knowledgeable manners.]

[Xiaobai, I wish you can tell us more about the poems. They are so beautiful. Did you guys notice that the two poets were from the Tang Dynasty? I wonder what kind of era it was and how the time cultivated such great poets.]

[My major is history. You can trust me to say that the Tang Dynasty is full of talented poets and all of them are great. Unfortunately, we don't know much about their culture. They've more likely faded in history. What a pity.]

[Are you serious, man? Are you saying that Xiaobai is telling the truth? He didn't make up these stories?]

[You guys are so funny, Xiaobai's fans. Why do you think he is capable of writing such beautiful poems? You are flattering him!]

Not to mention the audience, even the judges, especially Si Xiao, almost shed tears for the poems, which startled Gu Bai.

Gu Bai tried to calm down, telling himself that people in the interstellar era were excited because they didn't know much about these histories.

As he comforted himself inwardly, he broke the mud outside the chickens. Immediately afterward, a strong sense of chicken was mixed with the refreshing scent of locus and spread around. All the present people, including the audience, were all shocked.

Removing the mud and uncovering the locus leaves, the smell became stronger, which overshine other dishes and spread in all their noses.

[It smells so good. We smelt nothing just now. Why is it so delicious within a few seconds? Xiaobai, did you cast a spell or something?]

[My tears are pouring out of my mouth. I can't wait to eat them!]

[My mom asked me why the screen was wet. It's because of Xiaobai's dishes! I can't help myself!]

[Guys, follow my advice and lower your sensitivities. Don't ask why. It's scary when you can't help yourself taking it over and eating it directly!]

[The name is beautiful, but the smell is better! I can't control myself! Even if Xiaobai lives on the M95 Planet, I want to go there. It won't be in vain as long as I can eat the dishes he makes!]
