Akali herself probably didn't even realize why she could see her own face, but the fact that she didn't react was probably the best outcome.

Akali just kept her head down and didn't say anything. Lux and the others didn't find it strange, because Akali always acted like this.

Sona said with some confusion, "Queen Lucifer..."

"Huh? Is this how you sew the lace? Sona? What's wrong?"

Sona tilted her head and said, "Queen Lucifer, when are you going on your trip?"

"July 10th... um... even if you push it back 37 days, it'll be about right. A few days difference won't matter."

"Oh...I see..."

Yuuko Ichihara smiled and said, "Sona, judging from your expression, do you want to go out and play too?"

Sona blushed and was about to speak when she heard Lucifer casually say, "Come if you want, it's not a big deal. Hey? Yuuko, did you sew it wrong?"

“Lucy, you should trust my abilities. Even if you use the wrong magic, I can't possibly sew the wrong clothes.”

Lucifer said with a displeased look, "Get lost, you're the one who used the wrong magic! But I suddenly realized it's been quite a while since I've seen Shizuka and Chihiro."

"It's not like you see Ziyin and the others all the time. They're all working overtime like crazy. They're like iron-clad overtime workers. I really admire them."

Lucifer casually said, "It can't be that bad... Zhanzhan isn't the type to work overtime. Besides, isn't she just temporarily acting as the student council president? What's there to work overtime for?"

"Of course, because if Ziyin works overtime, she will definitely dump the files on Zhanzhan. And then, Zhanzhan says she wants to kill Ziyin every day, but in the end she still helps her, doesn't she? She's such a tsundere. Why are all my sisters tsundere?"

Eirin Yagokoro tentatively asked, "Yuko...have you forgotten that you're a tsundere too?"

"Huh? Me? Tsundere? Impossible, impossible. How could I be a tsundere? The word tsundere doesn't exist in Yuuko-neechan's dictionary."

Yukari Yakumo narrowed her eyes and said, "Yuuko-neechan, you really are a tsundere."

Yuuko Ichihara sighed and said, "Yukari, the one thing I don't want you to call me 'older sister' is that."

"Huh?! Why?! I'm only seventeen! What's wrong with calling me 'older sister'?"

“Sizzle.…”xn

Riven leaned closer to take a look and then said in confusion, "This maid outfit skirt is so long."

Lucifer casually replied, "Isn't mine this long?"

"But the path to justice is very short."

"She did it on purpose. When I had time, I threw away her headband, hair tie, and sunglasses. I'm really fed up with her every day."

Riven scratched her head and said, "It seems like Justice was prepared in advance, with many backups."

"Huh? This guy... Eh? Where are Haimeng and the others?"

"Hai Meng and the others went to sleep. Xiao Qiong is being watched by Pan De, so she's probably been sent back to sleep by now. Speaking of which... I wonder what Gu Leifia is doing..."

Lucifer asked, somewhat puzzled, "Huh? Glefia isn't with you?"

"No, Grayfia isn't a very playful person. I don't know what she was doing in her room just now... I thought Grayfia went downstairs to learn to cook with Shiraha."

Lucifer waved his hand and said, "Greefia hasn't been learning to cook for many days. At most, she'll learn to cook breakfast. Speaking of which, it's strange... What is Greefia doing? Is she taking her beauty sleep?"

Yuko Ichihara thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be that bad. Although Grayfia takes good care of her skin, there's no need for her to go to bed so early. There must be some secret."

Yukari Yakumo tilted her head and said, "Want to see what the secret is?"

Yuko Ichihara said irritably, "Give me a break. Hey? It seems like that kid will be coming again in a few days."

Lucifer paused for a moment and said, "Nanxiong? Uh... Shiraha is probably going to have another headache."

Eirin Yagokoro asked in confusion, "Why do you have a headache? Is it because that customer is troublesome?"

Kazami Yuuka said softly, "Kusuo... he always comes at the beginning of the month and then orders a coffee jelly."

"What kind of headache do you have?"

"Then he'd pack up thirty or even more servings of coffee jelly to take away, so Bai Yu always looked like he had a headache when she saw him at the beginning of each month—dozens of servings of coffee jelly..."

Thirty servings?! And maybe more? What is he planning to do? Eat them like food?!

Lucifer waved his hand and said, "He buys a month's worth at a time, that's why there's so much of him. That's why you definitely won't see him if you don't come at the beginning of the month. And it's almost the beginning of the month again, it's really outrageous..."

Before Riven could speak, she smelled a delicious aroma, which made Akali look up as well. It smelled wonderful. Before Soraka could say anything, she saw Bai Yu pushing a food cart out.

Akali's eyes twitched; she felt incredibly awkward around Bai Yu. Fortunately, Bai Yu said nothing. Standing before them, he said gently, "Sorry to keep you waiting. Here's your meal..."

One after another, exquisite dishes were placed on the table, and even Soraka was somewhat attracted. The aroma was wonderful, and the food was definitely not from their world, which filled her with curiosity.

Akali just stared at the table the whole time without looking at Bai Yu, but Bai Yu still said gently, "Then comes Akali's ramen... Because it's spicy, be careful not to choke or get it in your eyes when you eat it."

"Uh...okay, I got it. Wait...is this noodles?"

"Of course, what's wrong?"

Akali was stunned when she saw the ramen in front of her, which was so thin that she couldn't even see the noodles at a glance. There was char siu, fish cake, and many other toppings, with half an egg placed on the very edge. Akali was dumbfounded. Could ramen be this luxurious?

Lux's eyes lit up as she exclaimed, "Wow! How luxurious! You can't even see the face at a glance!"

Akali nodded blankly, and Bai Yu said gently, "These dishes contain grapefruit chili sauce, ghost pepper sauce, and regular hot sauce. There's also vinegar and pepper over there. If you think it's not spicy enough, you can add some yourself, but please be careful when you add them, as these are different in spiciness."

Akali nodded, her eyes glued to the full bowl of ramen in front of her. Bai Yu glanced at it before smiling and saying, "Nice eye! This is your juice, Miss Soraka; your red wine, Fiona; your sparkling water, Sona; and..."

"Lux and Akali's cola, with ice. Just call me anytime if you need anything."

"Cola?"

Akali stared in surprise at the dark, bubbling liquid in front of her, while Lux laughed and said, "Akali! This is delicious! Trust me!"

"Um... um..."

Bai Yu said gently, "Then please enjoy your meal..."

After Bai Yu finished speaking, he left. Lux was about to start eating when she saw Soraka clasp her hands together in a prayer-like gesture, close her eyes, and whisper, "Thank you, stars, for your blessings that allow us to enjoy such delicious food."

Lux's hand holding the chopsticks froze. Why was she suddenly so serious? Bai Yu was also taken aback. After Lucifer whispered something in Bai Yu's ear, Bai Yu smiled and shook his head, saying gently, "How devout... So you're treating this dish as dinner prepared by the person who guided the Lord of the Morning Star?"

Lucifer nodded somewhat helplessly. What did he mean by guiding the Lord of the Morning Star? But that sounded much more prestigious than being a henpecked husband. It was something he could consider using to attract new customers in the future.

Only after Soraka finished praying did the others dare to eat. When they saw Soraka and Akali holding chopsticks so naturally, the three of them were taken aback.

Soraka asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Sona shook her head and said, "It's nothing. We were just surprised that Lady Soraka and Miss Akali could use chopsticks. It took us several days to learn."

Akali said softly, "Ionia uses chopsticks... Lady Soraka has traveled all over Runeterra, so naturally she knows how to use them too."

Lux and the other two nodded in understanding. Lux suddenly seemed to remember something and turned to stare at Akali. Akali was also taken aback and asked in confusion, "What are you trying to say?"

"Hmm...you can take off your mask now!"

Akali's eyes twitched. Why did everyone want to see her face? Although she was beautiful, it felt strange! And Akali blushed when she thought about how she had been seen being narcissistic before.

However, both the food and the super luxurious ramen were too tempting, and she was indeed a little hungry. She had been guarding the place the whole time and hadn't eaten anything. Plus, she had been talking all afternoon, so she had only managed to keep herself from getting hungry along the way.

Akali slowly removed her mask, while Lux, the unlucky girl, looked on with anticipation. However, after the mask was removed, Lux was visibly disappointed because only her eyes were visible, which were hazy as if covered by a layer of smoke.

Seeing Lux's expression, Akali breathed a sigh of relief. Holding a spoon in one hand and chopsticks in the other, she began to stir the ramen in front of her. What she didn't know until she stirred it was that Akali's eyes lit up.

She had never seen such beautiful ramen. Not only did it look very springy, but more importantly, the aroma was also completely out, with the rich fragrance of broth, a hint of spiciness, and the aroma of the noodle soup.

Akali knew that the fact that her stomach wasn't growling yet was already a big favor to her, but if she kept looking like that, she really wouldn't be so rude as to growl out loud.

Perhaps because of the many similarities with Japan, Akali, who is a ninja, is just like a normal Japanese person. She first took a spoonful of soup, blew on it, and then drank it.

"call...."

Akali exhaled a breath of hot air and nodded, but still felt it wasn't spicy enough. She guessed that Bai Yu had underestimated her. Akali looked at the three kinds of chili peppers in front of her and tasted them all with her chopsticks.

Akali hesitated for a moment before choosing the ghost pepper sauce. This chili was really something else. After some deliberation, Akali still opted for this sauce.

However, she didn't put in too much, just a small portion. After stirring it and tasting it, Akali's eyes lit up immediately; this time it was delicious enough.

Akali picked up a mouthful of ramen with her chopsticks, blew on it, and then put it in her mouth. Akali is the kind of girl with a very small face and a very small mouth, so Akali chews food like Sona, almost like a hamster.

Even though it was just a single chopstickful of ramen, it made her cheeks bulge as she chewed. Akali's eyes lit up; the chewy noodles, the savory broth, and the spiciness of the chili made Akali feel like she had been eating fake noodles before.

Since she couldn't see her own face anyway, Akali didn't care much and just kept eating, one bite at a time, without any intention of stopping.

Lux and the others also enjoyed the meal very much, especially Soraka. Soraka had never eaten such delicious food before, and even now she couldn't stop eating.

Lucifer glanced at Soraka before turning to Bai Yu with a puzzled look and asked, "Bai Yu, do you think I should go and bring Jinx back a few days earlier?"

"There's no need. If those two policewomen aren't around, it'll be too difficult to catch Jinx. There's no danger. Besides, didn't you leave her some kind of magic?"

Lucifer nodded and said, "I left three: one is a concealment spell, one is an enhancement spell, and the other is the same spell as the one Nami used to use to protect her."

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Enhance magic? Enhance what?"

"What's wrong with your physical condition?"

"Are you planning to let Jinx go completely insane?"

"We can't let her life be full of regrets, anyway, she won't hurt people easily."

"Too..."

Chapter 354 A Feast for the Senses, Soraka's Request (Please Subscribe~)

This dinner was a rare treat for both Soraka and Akali. Whether it was the tender and spicy Mapo Tofu or the simple and elegant Longjing Shrimp, it felt like they had opened the door to a new world.

The meat dish Bai Yu chose for them wasn't anything fancy, but it has to be said that it was a dish that most children, no... most people, wouldn't dislike.

Cumin lamb, although it's called cumin lamb, is actually a meat dish that can be made with any kind of meat. Just like traditional Chinese food, you can tell how to make it just by hearing the name.

Stir-frying is undoubtedly the most common cooking method in Chinese cuisine, out of the twenty-eight methods of cooking. There is no other method, because many soups require stir-frying the ingredients before stewing.

This cumin lamb is made by stir-frying it like this. The method for making cumin lamb is very simple. You just need to put the ingredients into the pot in order and stir-fry them. It's that simple, and there are no special skills involved.

After a stir-fry, the chili powder, cumin powder, and lamb are fully combined. The aroma of the oil alone is enough to fill the air with the rich fragrance of the seasonings.

That's right, the aroma of cumin lamb comes from the seasoning. In this well-known dish, the dominant aroma doesn't come from the lamb itself, but from the seasoning.

Chili powder and cumin are the kind of spices that don't want to be outdone by anyone. No matter what seasoning they're paired with, these two will always steal the show. They're like saying, "I don't care how fragrant you are, you can't overpower my aroma." That's what makes them so unreasonable.

Lamb naturally has a slightly gamey smell, but after processing, that's already minimal. Now, thanks to these two unreasonable seasonings, plus the auxiliary onions, there's absolutely no gamey smell left, or rather, it's completely uncompetitive.

When this dish was served, the fragrant chunks of lamb laid on lettuce, garnished with onions and dried chili threads, and sprinkled with a touch of fragrant white sesame seeds, were truly eye-catching.

When many people see cumin lamb, their first thought is, "Is this lamb skewers without skewers?" But it's not. Just like maocai is not hot pot, and mala tang is not hot pot, these two are different.

Just by looking at one being grilled and the other stir-fried, you can tell they are completely different dishes. Cumin lamb is much more fragrant than lamb skewers, and it's also more convenient to eat with rice than lamb skewers.

The tender lamb, with its rich aroma, is so delicious that it's impossible not to eat it with rice. If it's not good, then it's a matter of skill. The lamb is tender and the seasonings are fresh and fragrant. This dish is characterized by its tender texture, spicy and savory flavor, and rich nutrition.

A bite of meat, a bite of rice, a sip of drink, and you're all refreshed. It's simply delightful to satisfy your taste buds, not to mention the addition of Longjing shrimp to balance things out and Mapo tofu to enhance the flavor.

Sweet and sour cherry meat is also one of the most beloved dishes among women. It has a sweet and sour taste with a hint of spiciness, tender meat, and every bite is filled with the sauce and meat juices coated in batter.

This bite was truly satisfying. Apart from the gentlemanly Longjing Shrimp, the rest of the dish were all such unreasonable and mischievous kids. Every dish of grass seemed to have two big words written on its head: "Perfect with rice."

Speaking of this dish, many places require soup, especially in Lux's world, where it's a meat broth. Bai Yu also chose the refreshing lime chicken soup.

This is the only dish that isn't Chinese food, but it goes together very well. It's appetizing, refreshing, and helps cut through any greasiness. Whether it's the deliciousness of the chicken soup or the subtle sourness, it's all refreshing. I feel like after drinking this soup, I could eat another bowl of rice.

Even Soraka could tell how successful the dish was just by eating two bowls of rice. Sona and Akali, on the other hand, were like hamsters, their cheeks never flattening.

After a long while, Soraka took a sip of her drink, sighed, and leaned back in her chair. She had never eaten so much. Soraka clasped her hands together in prayer and began to give thanks for the delicious food she had been given.

Akali's fair forehead was also covered in sweat, whether from the heat or the spiciness, it was hard to tell. But she was there to eat her fill, and as a ninja, she naturally expended a lot of energy, so her appetite was quite large.

The entire bowl of ramen was eaten up bite by bite, leaving not a single drop. Even the bean sprouts were completely gone. It's worth mentioning that, just as Bai Yu said, Akali really loves drinking cola.

This bubbly, dark drink had a refreshing, cool sensation after one sip, along with a unique flavor and texture, and a sweet taste, which made her instantly fall in love with it.

"belch...."

Akali burped after a long while, then immediately covered her mouth. She breathed a sigh of relief when she realized no one was paying attention. This was the best, most satisfying, and most filling dinner she had ever had in her life.

Just then, Bai Yu walked over with a pack of tissues and said, "Looks like you've eaten enough. Wipe your sweat."
