Chapter 197

C197 – Too Delicious!

Without a word, Su Ming reached for a Glass Pearl Chicken and swiftly put it to rest. He set a pot of water to boil, methodically plucked the feathers, and removed the innards. Anyone who’s ever butchered a chicken knows this is usually the most tedious part. But, thanks to the System, this chicken was a breeze to clean. It was devoid of even the smallest down, including the thick calluses on its feet.

As Su Ming sliced open the belly, he discovered all the organs neatly encased in a thin membrane. With a tug, everything slid out, including the trachea. He marveled inwardly at the System’s efficiency, which must have been designed to let him savor the joys of farming and reaping the rewards. Otherwise, the System might as well have taken care of the gutting itself.

Growing up, Su Ming often assisted his parents with such tasks, making chicken butchery second nature to him. What might take others hours, he could accomplish in a mere twenty minutes—not due to his own speed, but the System’s prowess.

Su Ming chopped the chicken into pieces, washed them thoroughly, and submerged them in cold water. This time, he was craving the simple pleasure of authentic chicken soup. He lounged on the couch, phone in hand, as the soup simmered gently on a low flame.

Just as drowsiness began to overtake him, a System alert jolted him awake: “The chicken will reach peak flavor in five minutes!” Instantly alert, Su Ming was greeted by the rich aroma permeating the room. The scent was hearty yet not at all greasy, leaving him feeling refreshed and his stomach rumbling in anticipation.

Checking the time, he dashed to the kitchen, eyes fixed on the pot. As the five minutes elapsed, he promptly turned off the heat. Donning thick gloves, he carefully transferred the ceramic pot from the stove to the dining table. Lifting the lid, the room was engulfed in the savory scent.

My goodness! The soup’s fragrance was enhanced by a subtle sweetness, robust yet wonderfully light on the palate. Su Ming could no longer contain himself. Disregarding the heat of the pot, he grabbed a chicken leg with one hand, chopsticks in the other, and tore into it with gusto.

A large drumstick was yanked off with a forceful tug.

Su Ming took a bite and was instantly in heaven!

The chicken was incredibly tender and silky, exactly as the System had described—succulent and juicy.

Finishing the drumstick, Su Ming savored the lingering taste on his lips and teeth, an endless delight.

It was an indescribable pinnacle of flavor.

Perfection!

Su Ming feared he might never enjoy any other chicken again.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

He devoured the meal with gusto.

Before long, he had polished off over half the chicken and downed two bowls of chicken soup.

Reclining on the couch, Su Ming opened his mouth and let out a contented burp.

The chicken soup had a surprising hint of fruit sweetness.

The fruit’s sweetness didn’t clash with the soup; it was a seamless, perfect blend.

Truly, the ultimate taste sensation!

In that moment, Su Ming had an epiphany.

The Glass Pearl Chicken might share some similarities with the Body-stretching Pill.

But the differences between them were vast.

The Glass Pearl Chicken was simply too delectable.

“Congratulations, you’ve obtained the Glass Pearl Chicken cooking seasoning packet. This exclusive seasoning is designed to enhance the flavor of the Glass Pearl Chicken to its ultimate potential.”

Su Ming was astounded.

The System had actually provided him with these seasonings.

It looked like the chickens’ destiny to be eaten was inescapable.

Even without any added seasonings, the chicken dishes were already delectable. With the addition of the System’s exclusive seasoning packet, Su Ming could only imagine how much more delicious they would become.

He had already consumed one chicken and taken an egg, but why hadn’t the System prompted him about gaining experience?

Was the breeding zone different from the plantation area?

Ultimately, he chose not to dwell on it, trusting that the System wouldn’t deceive him.

Su Ming’s spirits were high.

As he was about to prepare another chicken, his phone abruptly rang.

Setting the knife aside, he went to the living room and inspected the caller ID.

It was the construction team leader.

It looked like his parents’ villa was finally ready.

“Mr. Su.”

The moment he answered, the construction boss greeted him warmly, “We’ve completed the construction of your parents’ villa.”

“How much do I owe you for your efforts?” Su Ming inquired.

“Mr. Su, it’s our duty,” the boss replied.

Su Ming responded calmly, “I intend to honor my promises.”

He remembered a previous warning from his superior never to contradict Mr. Su.

“Very well, Mr. Su, I’ll send the invoice to you shortly.”

“Fine,” Su Ming acknowledged with a nod.

After ending the call, he reflected on the completion of his parents’ villa. He decided it was the perfect time for a visit.

He could take some Glass Pearl Chickens for his parents to taste.

And as for the blueberries, they still needed plenty of time to mature, so there was no rush.

He began to gather his belongings, preparing to head home.
