When he saw the other person's face looking up, Seiya was stunned for a moment, because the other person was Minezaki, who had come to his house more than a week ago and asked Seiya and Soma to stop business.

Although only a week had passed, Minezaki now looked much more haggard than before.

If it weren't for the other party's still bottomless cleavage, Seiya wouldn't even recognize that she was the Da Lei lady who had the temperament of a queen before.

"What happened to you? How come you've become like this in just over a week?

Didn't I only take a small portion of the money you transferred to me as a token of appreciation and transfer the rest back to you?"

The bet between Seiya and Minezaki was that if Seiya won, Minezaki would have to pay Seiya an amount equivalent to the land transfer fee as the cost of the food.

If placed in the normal world, such an agreement would be quite unreasonable, but in this culinary world, such an agreement is even legally binding.

The reason is that in this world, it is not uncommon for a delicious custom-made dish to be priced sky-high.

Sometimes, even if you have money but want to invite graduates such as the "Ten Greatest Students of Totsuki" to cook for you, they may not give you that honor.

The reason why Seiya made such a bet with Minezaki was because the store was short of funds and he needed to buy ingredients to reopen the business.

And when Minezaki transferred a large amount of zeros into his account, Seiya transferred most of the money back afterwards.

Because he felt that although he did put some thought into his ordinary "Stir-fried Vegetarian Beef with Green Onions", the price was not that outrageous.

The 200,000 yen he accepted against his conscience was already a sky-high price. He really couldn't take the 20 million yen that Minezaki paid...

It was also because most of the funds were returned that Seiya didn't understand why Minezaki had become so haggard now.

It stands to reason that since she did a poor job this time, she would inevitably be blamed by the company or even fired.

But as a wealthy woman with a net worth of at least 20 million yen, even if Minezaki loses her job, she can still live a carefree life wherever she goes, right?

"No, all of it is gone. Because of what happened last time, not only was I fired from the company, but the company also put the blame on me for the failure of this development project and asked me to pay 10% of the compensation.

I went to my former boss for help, but he had already hired a new woman to take my place..."

In fact, Minezaki didn't say everything. That is, when she went to her former boss for help, the other party had hinted to her wildly that as long as she let him take advantage of her, he would come forward to help Minezaki solve all the problems, including the company's compensation issues.

Unfortunately, seeing his pot-bellied boss looking at his body with a lewd look on his face, Minezaki ultimately did not choose to compromise.

Because of this, Minezaki was not only fired by the company, but also had to pay a considerable sum of money as compensation for the losses caused to the company.

To put it simply, although Seiya did not take her money, the compensation that the company asked her to bear eventually drained her out of money.

It's not like Minezaki hadn't thought about appealing, but unfortunately, she was just a high-level employee and it was impossible for her to defeat the power of capital.

So in the end, not only did he lose all his savings over the years, he even had to sell his car and house.

Feeling devastated, Minezaki felt like she had no desire to live. She originally wanted to end her life, but at the last moment, she was inexplicably reminded of the dream dish she tasted a few days ago.

Even if she was going to die, she wanted to experience that unforgettable taste at least once more.

Upon hearing that Minezaki not only lost his original job but was also blamed by an unscrupulous company, Seiya showed a look of helplessness on his face.

To be honest, Minezaki did nothing wrong. They were just acting in the name of their boss. She was trying to find ways to make Seiya and Soma Yukihira close their stores for work.

Although her previous methods were somewhat despicable, she now paid the price for it.

As for Seiya and Soma Yukihira, they did nothing wrong either. They were just defending their own rights.

Even if Seiya had not made a bet with Minezaki, Minezaki, who had messed up, would still face harsh criticism from the unscrupulous company when he returned.

However, the other party's fate was more or less related to himself, so after seeing Minezaki with a haggard face, Seiya finally sighed and invited her into the store.

Minezaki, with lifeless eyes, entered the Wenren Restaurant without caring that it was still the low-class restaurant she had disliked a few days ago. She found a seat and sat down. Then she looked at Seiya and said, "I want to eat the 'Stir-fried Vegetarian Beef with Scallions' from a few days ago again."

After taking a look at the menu in the store, although the dish he had eaten that day was not on it, Minezaki still looked at Seiya with a determined look on his face and said.

Although she is now homeless, she has few assets left, so she can still afford to eat a dish of "Stir-fried Vegetarian Beef with Green Onions" that Seiya had charged her 200,000 yen for before.

Anyway, as long as she could eat that dish again, she would be completely free of worries, so Minezaki never thought about how she would live in the future.

After hearing what Minezaki said, Seiya didn't say much, but tied his scarf around his neck and walked into the kitchen again to start messing around.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Seiya brought a steaming dish to Minezaki.

"What do you mean? The dish I want is 'Stir-fried Vegetarian Beef with Scallions', not this!"

Do you think I'm too poor to eat your special dishes? I just want to taste that unforgettable taste one last time..."

When Minezaki saw that the dish Seiya served was not the "Stir-fried Vegetarian Beef with Green Onions" that he had been dreaming of, but a bowl of steaming porridge, he couldn't hold back his emotions and burst into tears.

Seeing the lady in front of him who was a little out of control, Seiya didn't argue with her, but said, "You haven't eaten well in a few days, right?

Although "Stir-fried Vegetarian Beef with Scallions" is made with vegetarian meat, it is still a bit greasy. I think it would be better for you to eat something lighter now.

Don't worry, although the taste of this bowl of "Century Egg and Lean Meat Porridge" is a bit simple, the taste should not disappoint you.

This is also something that is not sold in the store, so you can think of it as a custom dish like the “Stir-fried Vegetarian Beef with Scallions.”

The white porridge cooked in a clay pot is as pure and flawless as white jade. The minced meat, black preserved eggs, and green chopped green onions scattered in the porridge are like embellishments of a work of art, not only making the originally plain white porridge distinct in color, but also making it emit a refreshing fragrance that whets one's appetite.
