Food Wars, my food not only glows!

　Especially Hojo Miyoko, at this moment she really had the idea of ​​dropping out of school, and was hesitant and conflicted. Was being with Shirobuchi not as good as being with Totsuki?

　"Can I come with you?"

　"No."

　After thinking for a moment, Hojo Miyoko mustered up her courage and asked, but was met with Shiro's unwavering rejection, which made her heart sink.

　"You should study at Totsuki for now. When you arrive, find a girl named Alice Nakiri and tell her that I asked you to come. Then you can stay by her side."

　She's my personal disciple, possessing top-tier strength; teaching you shouldn't be a problem for her.

　Considering that he would be developing his career in Totsuki for the next few years after the trip, Hakugen did not intend to take Hojo Miyoko with him.

　Of course, another reason is that she is still young, and having her around would be a real burden. Many things that could have been done by her are now being done because of her.

　If it's there, it can't be done.

　"You were peeking at me just now, weren't you! Hehehe, you've finally discovered my charm, haven't you? Look all you want, no need to sneak around!"

　Perhaps it was Bai Yuan's gaze that was too piercing, or perhaps it was because she had been paying attention to him all along, but Wang Wanqing felt the gaze falling on her and said excitedly.

　"I took a second look, and she has a pretty good figure."

　Bai Yuan wasn't embarrassed at all; instead, he praised her generously, which caught Wang Wanqing off guard, and her cheeks visibly turned red.

　"Thank you so much for the compliment."

　Wow, surprisingly innocent.

　Looking at the girl in front of him, Bai Yuan had this thought in his mind: compared to her, he felt that he was more experienced.

　"I have a pretty good figure too, look at mine!"

　Seeing the two interacting so enthusiastically, Kikuchi Sonoka became a little unhappy. Her cheeks flushed, she grabbed Shirai's hand and made her look over.

　"Yes, you can look at anything."

　Pulled along by the girl, Bai Yuan laughed. This was the life he wanted. Girls were vying for his attention, and he felt a subtle sense of satisfaction.

　"Hmm...look at me too!"

　Kakuzaki Taki was already slightly tipsy. Watching Bai Yuan interact with Wang Wanqing and Kikuchi Sonoka, he turned his face towards him with flushed cheeks.

　"You're living the life of a winner, aren't you?"

　Looking at Bai Yuan surrounded by girls, Li Wanwan couldn't help but complain, "This guy's life is just too easy!"

　He's an all-around culinary genius, handsome, and adored by many eligible women—he's practically a winner in life!

　"After all, I'm very good."

　"That's true. Well then, take a closer look at me, the excellent Teacher Bai Yuan~"

　Bai Yuan took a moment to reply to Li Wanwan's words, and then found himself in a chaotic situation, with the girls' continuous questions causing him both pain and pleasure.

　Inside the room, laughter and cheerful conversation filled the air.

　Knowing that Bai Yuan would be leaving tomorrow, everyone let loose and did things they would never have done before...

　Chapter 83 The person was in Far Moon, just got off the plane

　"Alice, after you arrive at Far Moon, remember to keep in touch with Brother Bai Yuan."

　He spent a year away from home, experiencing the temptations of the world. Coupled with his exceptional qualities, it's no wonder he attracted the attention of undesirable women.

　At a Danish airport.

　Leonora looked at Alice Nakiri, who had grown into a beautiful young woman, and patiently gave her some instructions.

　"I know! And we've already confessed our feelings to each other. Even if he really has other women outside, I'll still be number one in his heart!"

　Hearing Leonora's instructions, Alice Nakiri blushed slightly.

　More than a year has passed since Bai Yuan left.

　"I'm just worried about you. I watched you two grow up. You used to be so compatible. But now we only talk on the phone once a week!"

　Men are creatures who, if left to roam freely for too long, are bound to develop other ideas, so you must hold on tight!

　Leonora Nakiri said with considerable experience, "These two are the ones I've been idolizing since I was a child. Nothing can go wrong. They have to get together!"

　"Brother Bai Yuan is not that kind of person!"

　Alice Nakiri pouted and retorted. Having been with him since childhood, she knew Bai Yuan better than anyone what kind of person he was!

　Even if there are other women by his side, there will always be a place reserved for her!

　"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

　When you go to Totsuki this time, you need to get along well with Erina. Remember how you two didn't get along when you were little, and you even argued a lot.

　Time flies! You've grown so much in the blink of an eye. It's really hard to see you leave all of a sudden. If it weren't for the research we still need to do here, I would have gone to Japan with you!

　Although she wanted Alice to stay with her a little longer, Leonora Nakiri also knew that her child was getting older and needed to go out and learn new skills.

　So, despite her reluctance, she decided to send Alice Nakiri to Totsuki Academy as a transfer student to the third year of elementary school.

　According to Bai Yuan's initial idea, he would hone his culinary skills through constant competition.

　"That's because Erina said my cake was awful! I made it with so much care, and she only took one bite and threw it away!"

　Alice Nakiri was furious when she thought about how Erina Nakiri had looked at her with disdain and said her cake was awful! Even now, thinking about that incident from her childhood still makes her angry.

　“You’ve been completely transformed. Go and show Erina what you’ve got. Use your cooking to make her say ‘delicious’ herself!”

　"Absolutely! The first thing I'll do when I head to Totsuki is to challenge Erina to a food battle and crush her confidence! That'll be my revenge!"

　Excitement burned in Alice Nakiri's eyes. This was another thing she had been looking forward to for the past few years, and it shocked Erina Nakiri with her strength!

　Being told that the food was terrible was something she couldn't forget, and it even created a childhood trauma that made her not cook for a long time.

　"In that case, go for it! Whatever you do, Mom will support you."

　After six years of training by Bai Yuan and another year of refinement, your culinary skills have now stabilized at the Special Grade. Wait until the end of Totsuki...

　It will definitely give your grandfather a big surprise!

　Thinking of Alice Nakiri's progress over the past year, Leonora Nakiri smiled. In the year since Bai Yuan left, she seemed to have suddenly had an epiphany, integrating all the knowledge she had learned before, and now she can consistently produce dishes of the highest quality.

　One can imagine that when Alice Nakiri arrives at Totsuki Academy and demonstrates her strength, she will definitely bring a little shock to the students of Totsuki!

　"Speaking of which, why don't you take the top-level exam? With your skills, you're sure to pass if you do. Having a top-level chef certificate is very convenient in every way."

　As if she had thought of something, Leonora asked with some doubt, "Alice clearly has the strength of a Special Grade, so why doesn't she participate in the Special Grade assessment?"

　"I don't want the master chef armband from Denmark. I want to go to Guangzhou, China, like my master, take the master chef exam there, and get the dragon-shaped master chef armband!"

　Thinking back to when Bai Yuan possessed extraordinary strength, yet he didn't care about any empty fame, and stayed in Denmark peacefully for so many years.

　Alice Nakiri naturally wasn't in a hurry to take the special chef exam or compete for those so-called empty titles; she wanted to follow the same path as Bai Yuan!

　"I see."

　Upon hearing Alice Nakiri's words, Leonora Nakiri suddenly realized that everything made sense if Bai Yuan was involved.

　"Attention passengers traveling to Tokyo, Japan: Check-in for your flight XY4426 is now open. Please proceed to counter number 3. Thank you!"

　Just as Leonora Nakiri was about to say something more, an announcement came over the airport's loudspeaker: the time for farewell greetings was coming to an end, and it was time to board and leave.

　"It's getting late, so I'll be going now. I'll miss you, Mom."

　As they spoke, Alice Nakiri opened her arms and hugged Leonora Nakiri.

　The scene reminded her of how she felt when she said goodbye to Bai Yuan. Her mother must have felt the same way she did back then, very sad.

　At this moment, besides a faint sadness in her heart, she felt more excited, excited that she could break free from her previous monotonous life.

　As for why we went to Japan first?

　That's because the examination for top-level chefs in Guangzhou, China, is very difficult.

　So she decided to learn from one of her senior classmates from Totsuki University, who had taken the Guangzhou Special Grade Chef Examination with Bai Yuan.

　That senior's name is Kikuchi Sonoka, and she is currently the first seat of the Elite Ten!

　"Be careful on the road!"

　Watching Alice Nakiri gradually disappear into the distance and about to board the plane, Leonora Nakiri stood at a distance, waving and shouting loudly.

　Her feelings were equally complicated at that moment.

　·

　"Master, I'm here!"

　I arrived at my seat with my plane ticket, having bought a first-class ticket since I had the money.

　Alice Nakiri took out the photo of Shirabuchi that she always carried with her, looked at it affectionately, and gently stroked the boy's cheek in the photo with her fingers, her face flushed with an indescribable excitement.

　The day before she was to leave for Totsuki, she made a video call to Bai Yuan, telling him that she was going to Totsuki and asking him when he would come.

　She had only approached it with a try-it-out attitude, since she missed Bai Yuan terribly. Unexpectedly, he replied directly, "I'll be going to Far Moon in a while and will stay there with you for a period of time."

　That sentence made her so excited that she couldn't sleep all night!

　"This time I absolutely won't let you leave easily. Even if you cry or make a fuss, I won't let you get away! Alice is all grown up now, and I'll give you whatever you want!"

　As her fingers traced the photo downwards, Alice Nakiri murmured softly, her eyes filled with determination. Then she hugged the photo to her chest, as if the Shiro Awakening in the photo could embrace her.

　The plane slowly took off, carrying the young woman's longing for her lover and her yearning for a new life.

　Our goal: Totsuki Culinary Academy!

　Tokyo Airport, Japan.

　"When will Alice finally arrive? How long are we going to have to wait here! And why did Grandpa insist that I wait here?!"

　Looking at her watch repeatedly, a girl with cascading blonde hair said with dissatisfaction, "I've been waiting here for over an hour!"

　"Because the plane was delayed, there was a slight delay, but Miss Alice's plane will arrive in no more than half an hour."

　She had short, pinkish-purple hair, a blue-purple top, and a plaid pleated skirt. With a slightly tomboyish appearance, the girl spoke softly beside the blonde girl.

　"I had planned to let Hisako try my newly developed dish today, but now that the flight is delayed, all my plans are ruined!"

　Despite saying that, her eyes kept glancing at the exit gate, clearly not as indifferent as she claimed to be to her cousin whom she hadn't seen for many years.

　"Erina-sama's new cuisine!!?"

　Upon hearing Erina Nakiri's words, Hisako Shinoto showed an excited expression.

　A blush visibly rose on her cheeks, as if she were thinking of something.

　"You little glutton! Don't worry, even if it's a bit late, I'll still make it for you. I'd like to hear your opinion."

　"Erina-sama's cooking has been perfect from the very beginning, how could I possibly offer any advice!"

　"That's true. Then enjoy my special dish when the time comes!"

　Seeing Hisako Shirato's expectant face, Erina Nakiri smiled, then reached out and pinched her chin, gazing deeply into her eyes.

　"Lady Erina!"

　Hearing Erina Nakiri's words and looking at her exquisite and beautiful face, Hisako Shinoto's eyes became somewhat dazed.

　As the most talented genius girl in Totsuki Academy, Erina Nakiri's cooking skills are absolutely top-notch, and she is currently the strongest in Totsuki Junior High!

　"You two have such a good relationship! It's been a long time, Erina."

　I don't know when the plane landed. As soon as I came out of the exit, this was the scene that greeted me. These two are really bold to do this at the airport!

　"When...when did you get here?"

　Hearing the slightly familiar voice, Erina Nakiri was startled, and then she saw Alice Nakiri walking towards them not far away.

　In just a short while, the other party had arrived in front of them.

　"When you started being all lovey-dovey."

　Alice Nakiri answered truthfully. She had just stepped out of the boarding gate when she saw the two gazing at each other affectionately, looking quite effeminate.

　However, Erina Nakiri really hasn't changed at all. She looks exactly the same as when she was a child, just a little older.
