Chapter 392 Greed
Perhaps because a new life is growing in her womb, Ruan Mianmian's appetite has recently undergone a strange change. She seems to have an endless craving for all kinds of delicious food, and she is especially greedy.
On that very day, a sudden thought came to mind, making Ruan Mianmian desperately want to taste a bowl of steaming hot and fragrant mala tang.
However, in this mysterious and ancient beast world, where can one find such a modern delicacy?
Sen, who was standing nearby, noticed that the little female was fidgeting and looking uncomfortable. Filled with concern and worry, he couldn't help but ask softly, "Ruan Ruan, what's wrong? Is something bothering you?"
Ruan Mianmian glanced at Sen with a mournful expression, then said with a hint of helplessness and grievance, "I really want to eat a kind of food that doesn't even exist in this world."
Upon hearing this, Sen was slightly taken aback, then fell into a brief silence. After a while, he slowly spoke, "Then... do you have any way to make it yourself? Or to create it using your abilities?"
After Sen got together with Ruan Mianmian, she often didn't hide the fact that Sen would take things that weren't available in the Beast World.
Especially after Sen reverted to his ancestral form, his energy genes were unstable, and Ruan Mianmian spent a lot of spirit stones to stabilize them. Not to mention how many good things she secretly fed him out of concern.
Therefore, Mori knew that his female could produce all things.
Just then, the system that had been lurking deep within Ruan Mianmian's mind suddenly spoke up: "Host, it's just a simple bowl of spicy hot pot, why are you so worried? Let me tell you, my system's shop has a dazzling array of all kinds of spicy hot pot brands. You can buy whatever you want to eat!"
Ruan Mianmian rolled her eyes inwardly upon hearing the system's words. She'd already spent nearly a million on shopping, and now her balance was so low. Her baby wasn't even born yet; who knew what expenses she'd face in the future? She didn't even dare buy what she wanted to eat!
The system heard Ruan Mianmian's thoughts and muttered to itself: This host is getting more and more stingy. How am I supposed to level up if I don't have purchasing power?
As her craving for mala tang grew stronger, Ruan Mianmian finally decided not to torture herself and bought herself two servings.
After she cooked the spicy hot pot, a fresh and fragrant aroma filled the surrounding area.
Sen curiously leaned closer to look at the spicy hot pot in the bowl. The colorful ingredients were mixed together and emitted a unique aroma.
“This looks very special,” Sen said.
Ruan Mianmian picked out a piece of luncheon meat and held it to Sen's mouth, "Try it, it's delicious."
Sen hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth and ate it, his eyes instantly lighting up. "This is really good."
Just then, the other orcs in the tribe smelled the aroma and gathered around. The little wolf cub Chen, drooling, said, "Chief, what is this? It smells so good."
Ruan Mianmian was in a dilemma; there were definitely not enough beastmen to go around.
The system suddenly spoke up: "Host, your chance has come. You can spend a small amount of money to buy the ingredients, and then I will give you the recipe for free. That way, you can enjoy all of them."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mianmian felt that eating alone didn't seem right. So she told everyone, "What I'm eating is called Mala Tang (spicy hot pot). After the hunting team returns tonight, everyone will eat this. Because of limited ingredients, I'll have to go out and find some more later. Please be patient, we'll be able to eat it tonight."
Seeing that his little female was still eating and not settling down, Sen said sternly, "Let's talk about it after the leader finishes eating. Can't you see she's pregnant? She has no manners at all!"
Just then, Miyue heard the noise and ran over. She could tell that Sen was unhappy, so she quickly grabbed Chen and ran away.
While running, he lectured Chen, saying, "As a male, you should cherish females, especially since she's the chief who's pregnant. The tribe has plenty of food and drink; you can't all covet what the chief has. You need to learn to be grateful! What's with a male being so greedy? Can't you fill your stomach with animal meat?"
When the other kids saw Chen being dragged away, they all ran off laughing and joking.
They didn't want to be captured by their female or other orcs, because orcs didn't have a strong concept of respecting elders and caring for the young; disobedient cubs were bound to be beaten.
Watching the little beastman run off into the distance, Ruan Mianmian smiled and quickly ate her spicy hot pot. After all, she had been craving it for a long time!
After finishing her meal, she stood up, looked at Sen, and said, "Let's go, let's take a walk outside and see what ingredients are available. Tonight, I've decided that everyone will be having mala tang!"
