Chapter 1503 - 1501: Big Plate Chicken

Chapter 1503: Chapter 1501: Big Plate Chicken

In the evening, the dean came back to the mansion after work.

Usually, the dean lives at the orphanage. Chen Siyan has always wanted the dean to move in and live with her.

The dean is accustomed to life at the orphanage; his work and life are now inseparable, and he prefers living at the school to watch over the kids.

The dean has truly devoted himself to public welfare, dedicating everything to those children.

If anyone is considered the most selfless, Yang Chen would vote for the dean without hesitation.

Because the dean has never asked for anything in return, even when the kids who left the orphanage never came back to visit him; he doesn’t care at all.

"Dean!" Yang Chen saw the dean and got a bit excited.

Not seeing the dean for a few days made Yang Chen feel very excited. Because the dean’s hair had turned white, and his eyebrows also showed a trace of gray... the dean is really aging!

"Xiaochen! What was the phone call about this morning? What are Set and the others searching for in the academy? I asked them, but they wouldn’t tell me," the dean asked.

Yang Chen didn’t want to make the dean worry, "Nothing much, I just asked them to inspect the safety of the academy, testing them continuously to help them grow."

The dean thought about it but didn’t ask further.

"Dean!" Chen Siyan came downstairs. Seeing the dean, she immediately ran over excitedly, "What makes you decide to come today?"

The dean smiled and said, "Isn’t it because your brother came?"

"You favor boys over girls!" Chen Siyan pouted, somewhat angry.

"You little girl! You cling to me every day, even if I want to shake you off. Why should I come just to see you? Your brother seldom comes back." The dean said kindly.

"Hmph! Favoritism!" Chen Siyan turned her head, sitting on the sofa a bit sulky.

The dean shook his head with a smile helplessly and asked Yang Chen, "Did you visit Old Zhuo?"

"Not yet, I just got back, didn’t have the chance to go. Tomorrow I’ll go see Uncle Zhuo," Yang Chen replied.

"That’s good." The dean smiled and nodded.

Yang Chen let the dean sit down and went to prepare tea.

At this time, Ye Xin changed into loose, casual clothes and came out. Seeing the dean, she immediately exclaimed, "Dean! You came!"

"Xiaoxin! Come over and sit, let’s have tea together," the dean said with a smile.

The dean really liked Ye Xin, as Yang Chen is like a son he raised himself, and now his own "son" found such a beautiful and excellent wife; the dean is obviously happy.

Ye Xin came over, embarrassed, "Dean, we should have come to visit you, sorry to trouble you to come yourself."

"What’s the trouble!" The dean laughed and comforted, "This is also my home. Yanyan has always wanted me to move here. I don’t want to, as I’ve gotten used to living at the school. If anything happens to the kids, I feel at ease only if I can see it myself. So whether I come here or you come to my place, it’s all the same, don’t think too much. Also, I have another reason; I came to mooch a meal. Xiaochen’s cooking is really very tasty!"

"Haha!" Yang Chen came over with tea leaves, laughing heartily, "Dean, so you were craving the food!"

"That’s right." The dean smacked his lips, "Recently I’ve felt there’s no taste in my mouth, I want to try the taste of Spicy Chicken."

"Spicy Chicken, eh!" Yang Chen glanced at Chen Siyan, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

Back then, when she was a little glutton, Yang Chen took her across the university to find Spicy Chicken to eat. It was really tasty back then!

"Alright!" Yang Chen said with a smile, "Today I’ll make Spicy Chicken for everyone!"

Chen Siyan clapped happily, "I want Spicy Chicken! I haven’t had it in ages!"

"I guess I haven’t had it for a long time either," Ye Xin said with a smile.

Set and Soul Slayer seemed confused, "Spicy Chicken? I see there’s a lot of it here, what does it taste like?"

They hadn’t tasted the specialty of Flame Country, Spicy Chicken.

Yang Chen gave a mysterious smile, "I assure you once you taste it, you’ll never forget it!"

Yang Chen just remembered that during his time on Lijia Continent, food was overly federalized, so many of them had never tried Flame Country cuisine.

"Let’s have some tea first!" Yang Chen sat down to start making tea.

Once the tea was brewed, the room was immediately filled with a fragrant aroma.

Set held the teacup, smiling, "These tea leaves are really amazing. Just a few leaves can produce such a rich fragrance. And the taste is very unique; although somewhat strange, it feels comfortable to drink."

Yang Chen chuckled, "It’s good for health, drink more!"

Set and Soul Slayer didn’t hold back and drank several cups in a row.

They all understood the culture of Flame Country because Yang Chen had taught them a lot back then.

Although they knew what tea was, they rarely drank it, as they didn’t often encounter it on Lijia Continent.

After drinking tea for a while, Yang Chen got up to prepare a meal.

For Spicy Chicken, Yang Chen needed to carefully prepare the ingredients.

To make the chicken flavorful, it’s not just about stir-frying.

First, the chicken must be marinated for flavor, then slow-cooked to soften its texture before stir-frying on high heat to infuse the seasoning into the chicken.

Only then will it be a truly qualified Spicy Chicken.

Because Chen Siyan loves Spicy Chicken and once ate it in a difficult environment, Yang Chen has a deep impression of Spicy Chicken and has researched it extensively. So he has a unique formula for making it.

About an hour later, Yang Chen came out with a large pot of Spicy Chicken.

Everyone smelled the aroma and immediately gathered around.

"Smells so good!"

"Really fragrant!"

"Looks delicious!"

"So many chilies, looking forward to it!"

...

Everyone praised it endlessly.

Ye Xin and Chen Siyan had already picked up their chopsticks.

"I like eating sweet potato chunks!"

"I like eating potato chunks!"

The two reached at the same time.

Yang Chen’s expression was a bit awkward.

This is a plate of Spicy Chicken; the essence is in the chicken meat. Yet here, two people who love Spicy Chicken actually preferred the veggies in it, leaving Yang Chen feeling somewhat helpless.

After tasting it, the two gave a thumbs-up.

"Brother! How did you do it? Normally, sweet potatoes are only used in Dry Pot Chicken, and yours tastes even better!"

"And these potato chunks, all the flavor seeped in, very soft but not falling apart, just right! That seems hard to achieve!"

Yang Chen looked at the two, helpless, "Can’t you wait until everyone sits down before you eat? Also, the focus is on the chicken!"

The two stuck their tongues out, a bit embarrassed, and sat down.

Everyone took their seats, and Yang Chen indicated, "Let’s eat! Wang Ming, Set, Soul Slayer, don’t be shy. Taste my cooking."

Upon hearing this, everyone picked up their chopsticks.

After taking a bite, Wang Ming’s eyes widened in admiration, "Boss! You could open a restaurant! This flavor is awesome!"

Set and Soul Slayer’s eyes also widened simultaneously.
