Chapter 298 Human Females Fleeing in the Beast World 26
No longer caring about anything else, Wang Ma retorted loudly, "I have lived in this house for many years and know the young master's dietary preferences like the back of my hand. These dishes are what the young master usually likes to eat. You are just a human and don't understand the tastes of us beastmen. What gives you the right to spout nonsense here!"
"Alright, Aunt Wang," Herren interrupted her, stopping her from continuing.
His eyes held a clear warning, but Wang Ma was clearly overwhelmed by emotions and didn't take Herren's warning to heart at all.
"Young Master, how can you continue to favor her? This is an insult to me, and she must apologize!"
Wang Ma said indignantly.
Helen is now in a bit of a dilemma. As mentioned before, Wang Ma watched him grow up, so she still has some influence over him. He can't completely disregard Wang Ma's feelings.
Shen Chumo saw his predicament and said directly, "Wang Ma, since you feel that I am insulting you, then how about this, I will cook a meal. If you think it tastes better than what you make, you will have to listen to me in this house from now on."
If you feel it's not as good as you did, I'll apologize and leave right away, okay?
Upon hearing Shen Chumo's words, Wang Ma was first taken aback, then sneered: "Hmph, you? A human thinks you can surpass me in cooking? You're overestimating yourself! Fine, I'll bet with you. I'll see what tricks you can come up with."
Wang Ma was full of confidence in her cooking skills, and in her opinion, Shen Chumo was bound to lose.
Herren frowned. "Chu Mo... you don't need to do this at all."
The main reason was that he had never seen Shen Chumo cook. Although Hu Le said that Shen Chumo taught him some things, He Lun was not clear about Shen Chumo's cooking skills.
Shen Chumo held Herren's hand reassuringly, "Aren, trust me."
Herren sighed softly, unable to say anything more. But even if Shen Chumo lost, he could simply let her live in his other house.
Thinking that there was nothing for Shen Chumo to lose, she agreed.
Shen Chumo turned and walked into the kitchen to start selecting ingredients.
She quickly planned out the dishes in her mind, deciding to make several dishes that combined the flavors of the human world with the preferences of the orcs.
She first selected a piece of tender pork, intending to make a modified version of braised pork. She secretly added the unique sauces and spices found in the space to remove the meat's fishy smell and add a different flavor.
Next, she selected several fresh vegetables, intending to make a refreshing and delicious vegetable salad, paired with a special sauce to neutralize the greasiness of the pork.
On the other side, Wang Ma stood with her arms crossed at the kitchen door, coldly watching Shen Chumo's busy figure, occasionally letting out a few disdainful snorts.
She firmly believed that Shen Chumo was wasting his efforts and would only lose even more miserably later.
After careful cooking, Shen Chumo's dishes were served one after another. The braised pork was a bright red color and had an enticing aroma that made one's mouth water; the vegetable salad was colorful and the sauce exuded an irresistible fragrance.
Shen Chumo placed the dishes on the dining table and said to Wang Ma, "Wang Ma, please enjoy."
Reluctantly, Wang Ma walked to the dining table, sat down, picked up her chopsticks, and first put a piece of braised pork into her mouth.
She initially wore a disdainful expression, but as she chewed, she paused slightly, and her expression gradually became more complicated.
The meat was tender and juicy, and the sauce was rich and flavorful, bringing out the deliciousness of the meat while cleverly removing any fishy smell. She had to admit that the taste was truly unique.
Then, she took another bite of the vegetable salad. The refreshing taste and unique sauce were a perfect match, and she couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
Heron couldn't resist taking a bite of the two dishes. The braised pork melted in his mouth, and the rich aroma instantly filled his palate. The unique seasoning made his eyes light up.
He couldn't help but exclaim, "Chu Mo, this is so delicious! I've never eaten such delicious beast meat before."
As he spoke, he picked up another large piece and put it in his mouth, eating with great relish.
Then I tried the vegetable salad; its refreshing taste instantly cut through the greasiness of the meat.
Herren nodded as he ate, "Did you make this sauce yourself? It tastes amazing, it goes perfectly with the vegetables." His eyes were full of surprise and admiration as he looked at Shen Chumo.
His eyes were full of surprise and admiration as he looked at Shen Chumo.
Watching He Lun wolf down his food, Wang Ma was still somewhat unconvinced, but the facts were undeniable, and she had to admit that Shen Chumo's cooking skills were indeed exceptional.
She frowned slightly, pondering what method Shen Chumo had used to turn these ordinary ingredients into such delicious dishes.
Helen swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Chu Mo, you must cook for me more often in the future. I feel like I'm becoming obsessed with your cooking."
His tone carried a hint of coquetry, like a child who had received a favorite candy.
When Wang Ma heard He Lun's words, she felt a pang of anxiety, worried that He Lun would become even more biased towards Shen Chu Mo from now on.
But she had to admit that today's meal had indeed given her a new understanding of Shen Chumo.
She hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Miss Shen, your cooking skills are indeed excellent, but don't be too proud of yourself. This was just a coincidence."
Shen Chumo sensed the sourness in Wang Ma's words, but she wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled and said, "Wang Ma, I know you are very experienced in cooking. We can learn from each other in the future. I still have a lot to ask you for advice."
Seeing Shen Chumo's sincere expression, Wang Ma's hostility lessened slightly, but her years of prejudice against humans couldn't be erased overnight.
She simply hummed softly and said nothing more.
Helen looked at Wang Ma and said seriously, "Wang Ma, you saw today how good Chu Mo's cooking is. Since you lost, don't forget your promise. You absolutely cannot be so rude to Chu Mo in this family again."
Otherwise... you should just go back to the old house.
Wang Ma's heart tightened; she certainly didn't want to be sent back to the old house.
She quickly lowered her head and whispered, "I understand, young master." Although she said that, she was still somewhat unwilling.
Shen Chumo knew that Wang Ma wouldn't truly submit to her, but that didn't matter. At least in the future, Wang Ma wouldn't be able to control her openly.
Seeing that Wang Ma had temporarily toned down her attitude, He Lun said to Shen Chumo, "Chumo, you've had a tiring day. Go back to your room and rest. I still have some things to tell Wang Ma."
Shen Chumo nodded. "Alright then, Alan, don't make things too difficult for Aunt Wang." After saying that, she turned and left the restaurant.
