Yun Han, aka OldHarold, wasn't the only one who was mesmerized by Mu Ning's cooking; there was also Sheng Huo, aka MyLifeMyIdea.
Compared to Yu Han, Sheng Huo belonged to the poorer side of the economy. 200 yuan was a huge amount for him. At least when his daily earnings exceeded no more than 100 yuan.
However, the intoxicating fragrance and the mouth-watering taste of scrambled egg with stir-fried tomato made him grit his teeth and order it.
He was in a particularly bad mood today. He failed the entrance exam to Imperial Academy while his twin brother passed it by bribing the examiner.
What was worse was... it was his parents who had 'lent' money to his brother. But when it comes to him... they conveniently stated, 'You are smart; you will crack it eventually.'
He didn't argue, even though he knew that the last seat, which could have been his, was snatched away by his own brother.
He just vowed to work harder... and yet his heart ached. Why were there so many biased parents in the world?
To drown his pain, he decided to indulge himself. If his parents can't dote on him, then he will!
Within 20 minutes, he received the notification of successful delivery and checked outside. Once tasting the food, though... Sheng Huo was stunned.
"Oh my god! This taste... which divine entity even made it?"
Once finished, he was about to throw the box away when he saw a note: "Thank you for ordering. Since you are one of the first customers, here is a VIP card. With this, you can order our food at a 50% discount."
When Sheng Huo saw the message, he was so touched that tears appeared in his eyes.
This was the first time in his life that someone had been so kind to him. This kindness... he will never forget!
With that, he took a photo of the card and posted it on his account with the caption, 'Ate the best food of my life! It's affordable and cheap!'
Soon, many of his friends communicated with him and asked about this mysterious restaurant.
In fact, it wasn't just Sheng Huo who had received the VIP, but also Yun Han and Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao, aka CutieLin, had ordered ingredients. She was a cooking major student and loved to explore cooking livestreams in the hopes of finding a genuine one.
The primary reason was that she was dissatisfied with the vegetables available in the market. Since they were grown using illicit injections to enhance flavors and their appearance, they feel weird after getting cooked.
When she watched Wargwen's account, she quickly spotted that the ingredients looked much fresher, and their fragrance didn't seem artificial at all.
So she gambled and ordered the ingredients for 100 yuan. At first, she regretted it.
The garlic spinach dish was worth only 200 yuan, while its ingredients were worth 100, meaning she was saving 100 yuan but at the expense of wasting 30 minutes plus the labor.
However, the chef inside her told her that it was worth it.
When she received the news of the successful delivery, she brought the package lying outside her door.
Impressed by the short delivery time, she checked the ingredients with a pounding heart.
She had ordered vegetables from various platforms and met with disappointment every single time, but this time her gut was telling her... she might not be disappointed.
Sure enough, the ingredients looked and smelled exactly the same as shown in the livestream. Following the video, she made the dish.
With a hammering heart when she tasted it, she almost burst out in tears. It was almost the same as the livestream! The ingredients were so f*cking good, and even the recipe was perfect!
Even though the taste was a bit different, due to her inexperience, tears started to stream down her face.
"Finally! Finally, a shop that can provide authentic, fresh vegetables!"
She quickly made a post on her account and checked the card given by the owner with gratitude.
Out of kindness, she even praised the quality of the ingredients in her school forum and internet forum.

The maturity period of vegetables in the game space was 7 days, meaning there were still 2 days left before Mu Ning could harvest them.
But Mu Ning was already looking forward to it.
With her knowledge about the Restaurant Tycoon game, she knew that the vegetables grown in the system space were much fresher and tastier.
Once harvested, they could be sold to fetch a higher price. They could also
What improved her mood was the 500 yuan. Though a small amount, it made her remember her first startup days.
With a bit of nostalgia, she searched her startup... only to find that it was acquired by one of the giant companies.
As if they had eyes on Mu Ning, because the next second Mu Ning received a message.
"Hello, Miss Mu Ning, this message is to remind you that within the next 20 days, you will have to pay 100,000 yuan as the first installment. Total debt: 1 billion yuan. If you delay any longer, we will have to sue you."
