"Boss, bring me ten bowls of egg fried rice first!"

If this were said in an ordinary small restaurant, the boss would probably be very happy, but in Bu Fang's shop, Bu Fang was extremely unhappy.

Bu Fang, who was about to enter the kitchen, stopped, turned around, and looked at Sun Qixiang, who was wearing a colorful robe, and said seriously, "Sir, in this small shop, each person is limited to one bowl of egg fried rice per day. You can order some stir-fried vegetables and dry noodles... or the enhanced version of egg fried rice."

Sun Qixiang was taken aback, seemingly not expecting to be refused. He looked at Bu Fang as if he were an idiot, while pointing at him with a paper fan and sneered, "Don't you know who I am?"

Who in the capital doesn't know Sun Qixiang, one of the three notorious playboys? A mere small restaurant owner actually dared to refuse him! It was sheer madness!

Bu Fang frowned, carefully examining Sun Qixiang. He had narrow eyes, a sharp nose, and a monkey-like face, which was ugly but distinctive... but he had never seen him before.

"I don't know you, but the rules of this shop are clear. If you don't eat, you can leave," Bu Fang said calmly.

"Wow! You've got some character. I love breaking rules the most! If you don't give me ten bowls of egg fried rice today, I'll smash your shop! A small hole-in-the-wall place like this dares to talk about rules with me?!" Sun Qixiang laughed. It was interesting to find someone in the capital who didn't recognize him.

Xiao Yanxu couldn't stand it anymore. She hadn't expected Sun Qixiang to follow her to this small shop. If the shop was destroyed, it would largely be her fault.

"Sun Qixiang, behave yourself! If you're here to eat, then eat properly. Do you want me to throw you out?!" Xiao Yanxu's ethereal voice carried a hint of coldness.

Xiao Xiaolong had been glaring at Sun Qixiang for a while.

Bu Fang, hearing Sun Qixiang's threat, remained expressionless, as if Sun Qixiang's threat was just hot air.

He rubbed his hands and glanced at Sun Qixiang indifferently, saying, "Smash my shop? I'm afraid you don't have the ability. One more thing, if you want to order, do it quickly. The menu is on the wall. If you keep nagging, you'll be permanently blacklisted."

Xiao Yanxu was stunned, and Xiao Xiaolong was also taken aback. They couldn't understand why Bu Fang wasn't afraid of Sun Qixiang's threat. Sun Qixiang had a lot of power in the capital, even the top restaurant "Fengxian Tower" wouldn't dare to provoke him. Where did Bu Fang get the nerve?

Sun Qixiang laughed in anger. A small restaurant in a back alley of the capital was so arrogant; he had learned something new today.

"Kid, you've got guts. The last person who talked to me like that is now feeding the fish in the city moat," Sun Qixiang sneered, turning to look at the menu. There were only four dishes listed.

He could ignore Bu Fang and smash the shop, but with Xiao Yanxu here, he didn't dare to act recklessly. So, he decided to see what this small shop could do.

"Ha, it's really a small restaurant. Only four dishes, and one is repeated... can you even cook egg fried rice in a fancy way?" Sun Qixiang glanced at the dish names, not even bothering to look at the prices, and sneered.

Prices? He, Sun Qixiang, wasn't short of money!

"What do you want to order?" Bu Fang asked expressionlessly.

"Give me one of each dish," Sun Qixiang sat at the table, curious to see what this small restaurant could cook that could attract the capital's top beauty.

Sun Qixiang looked around the small restaurant. It had to be said, the decor was unique and gave a very comfortable feeling.

"One of each dish? Fine, that's eleven yuan crystals and two hundred gold coins in total."

Bu Fang pulled the corners of his mouth and calmly stated the price.

Sun Qixiang, sitting on the chair with his legs crossed, stiffened when he heard the price, looking at Bu Fang as if he were an idiot.

"Do you think I'm a pig? Two bowls of egg fried rice, a plate of stir-fried vegetables, and a dish of dry noodles, and you want eleven yuan crystals and two hundred gold coins? You want to rip me off? You dare to rip off your Grandpa Sun?!"

Sun Qixiang almost shouted this, though he was known for his extravagance, he wasn't a fool.

"Are you blind? The prices are on the menu. If you don't want to order, get out!" Bu Fang's patience had run out. He didn't tolerate such behavior from customers. As a chef aiming to stand at the top of the food chain in a fantasy world, he had his own pride.

"Don't pretend to be rich if you don't have money."

Xiao Xiaolong almost burst out laughing at Sun Qixiang's shocked expression. When he first saw the prices, his reaction was almost identical. Seeing this expression on someone else's face gave him a sense of satisfaction.

"No money? What a joke! I can bury you in money! Stop talking nonsense! Bring the food first! I won't short you a coin!" Sun Qixiang glanced at Xiao Xiaolong disdainfully, fanning himself while his eyes darted around, calculating something.

Bu Fang didn't care. Since Sun Qixiang had ordered, he would cook. He wasn't afraid of troublemakers because the shop had been modified by the system, and causing trouble would have no good outcome.

"Please wait."

Bu Fang turned and entered the kitchen without another word.

"Yanxu, why would a beautiful lady like you come to this hole-in-the-wall place to eat such brain-dead egg fried rice?" While waiting for the food, Sun Qixiang, feeling bored, tried to chat with Xiao Yanxu, who was sitting gracefully on the side.

However, Xiao Yanxu remained like a statue, ignoring him.

Sun Qixiang, used to rejection, continued to look around the shop, his eyes full of disdain.

When he saw the prices on the menu again, a mocking look flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Xiaolong sat on the side, feeling a bit depressed, looking at Xiao Yanxu with a pout. All his yuan crystals had been taken by his sister, leaving him with only gold coins, so he ordered a dish of dry noodles.

Though it wasn't egg fried rice, if it was from this shop, it should be something special, after all... it was worth a hundred gold coins!

Everyone in the shop had their own thoughts.

Suddenly, a rich aroma wafted through the air, undulating like silk, gently caressing their faces.

Xiao Xiaolong was entranced by the scent. Oh! This smell, so captivating, it made him feel like he was reliving his lost youth!

Xiao Yanxu's eyes, like autumn water, showed a hint of surprise. It was really... so fragrant!

Sun Qixiang sniffed, his eyes lighting up. He muttered to himself, "This shop seems to have some skills! This aroma... incredible!"

Under the intense gaze of six pairs of eyes, Bu Fang walked out of the kitchen calmly.

"Here is your enhanced egg fried rice. Please enjoy," Bu Fang held a blue-and-white porcelain bowl, the rich aroma hovering above it, making it hard to see the dish clearly.

When the blue-and-white porcelain bowl was placed in front of Xiao Yanxu, the misty aroma rose straight up, like a concentrated aroma bomb bursting in front of her.

The aroma, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, instantly flooded Xiao Yanxu's nostrils, a gentle wave of air lifting the pink veil, revealing her beautiful face.

Gulp.

Xiao Yanxu's throat moved, a slight rumble coming from her stomach, making her face blush, a pink flush appearing on her skin.

This egg fried rice could make a fourth-rank battle spirit feel hungry... it was truly amazing!

When the mist above the egg fried rice dissipated, a golden glow emanated from the porcelain bowl, blindingly bright.

Sun Qixiang and Xiao Xiaolong were both shocked!

Xiao Yanxu, covering her red lips, let out a soft exclamation.
