The cook closed his eyes and took a deep breath, inhaling the soup aroma in the air. He had an intoxicated look on his face.
When Feng Jiu heard that, her lips curved and she quickly put the lid on the goblet. She took a lot of things. It was estimated that every teacher was getting the same things. Only a few items had only one thing. For those, she could not take all of them, but only half a portion.
Finally, after scooping a full ladle of spirit rice, she slipped away from the back.
"Mm? How come there's only one marinated trotter remained for the deputy headmaster?"
"How come the headmaster's spirit meat sauteed with matsutake mushroom is less than half? I remember there was a platter full of the dish."
The other cook laughed when he heard him. "Have you become forgetful? Nobody dares to enter here randomly. With both of us here, it's even more impossible to steal things in the kitchen."
