Chapter 886 Hot, hot, hot!

The tofu pudding slid down her tongue, and its delectable flavor instantly combined with the savory juices.

The fresh sides went great with tofu pudding. After she swallowed, the faint fragrance lingered in her mouth long after the mouthful of tofu pudding was already gone.

A smile curved her mouth, lighting her eyes.

The tofu pudding was so refreshing after the greasy steak.New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ

Unlike the steak, the taste of the tofu pudding was mild and delicate, making her feel cheerful and comfortable.

She found the bowl empty when she tried to scoop some more.

Christy gave a sad look. “It’s so good. Before I knew it, it’s already empty!”

Carla smiled. “I know, right?”

“This is the best thing you’ve ever recommended to me. No, the best I’ve ever eaten,” said Christy.

“But I’ve eaten too much. I’ll have to find a looser dress for the banquet tonight,” Christy said, touching her stomach.

Carla grinned. “That will be a small sacrifice considering that the banquet won’t offer anything better than what you have here.”

Christy nodded. “You’re right.”

“Your stinky tofus.”

Miya walked over to their table, holding a big tray, on which stood four covered plates. She put the food down in front of them.

Carla’s eyes brightened. “That’s what I’ve been waiting for!” She rubbed her hands together with excitement. “You really don’t want to try it?” she asked Christy. “You’ll regret it.”

Christy shook her head. “I have an important client to meet tonight. I can’t eat anything with a strong smell. Besides, if I keep on eating, no dress will be large enough to cover my belly.”

Carla didn’t press further. “All right. Suit yourself. But cover your nose. The smell may be too strong for you.”

Miya removed the covers from the plates one by one.

Disgusting smell shot up into the air like four volcanoes erupting.

“Ew!”

Covering their noses, Christy and Abraham jumped up from their chairs right away. Christy could feel her face turning red. She quickly took two steps back, and the air suddenly became pure and fresh again. She gasped for air, staring at the black food on the table in horror.

The smell had been indescribable, so strong that she had felt suffocated. However, it was gone as soon as she left the table area, just as if there was an invisible barrier around it. Thinking back on it, she found the odor unbearable, but strangely not disgusting.

She had no desire to sit back, though. She couldn’t stand it. She never wanted to smell that stink again, let alone eat that dish.

How could Carla put up with such a foul smell? And it seemed she liked it! Christy looked strangely at Carla and Harrison as they stared at their stinky tofus with greedy eyes.

“No! I can’t run away!”

Abraham managed to overcome his urge to run, even though the odor was unexpected and too much. He had prepared himself for it, but clearly he had underestimated its power.

Harrison and Carla were completely unaffected. Abraham watched as Carla put a piece of stinky tofu into her mouth with a blissful smile. He made himself look at the dish again. He was a foodie, and foodies would never miss out on a chance to try good food.

The black stinky tofu pieces were neatly placed on a long plate.Their centers were filled with condiments, and their surface was covered in rich brown sauce, as well as pieces of coriander, thereby creating a rather alluring sight to behold.

The sharp odor seemed to have faded a little. Abraham thought he found a pleasant smell in it, and it was becoming clearer and clearer.

It was so stinky that it was aromatic? A look of surprise flashed across Abraham’s face. After sitting himself down again, he looked at his two fellow customers stuffing themselves and brought a piece of stinky tofu into his mouth.

“Hot, hot, hot!”

Abraham’s eyes went round. As soon as he bit through the crispy outer layer, the hot and spicy juice inside immediately erupted out as if hot soup had been spilled from a pot in his mouth.

All he could think about at the moment was one word: hot.

Yet the hot sensation lasted only for a moment, and the spicy juice began to present its unparalleled deliciousness.

For a moment, Abraham wanted to spit it out. He opened his mouth, huffing and puffing. As the temperature went down, wonderful taste began to overwhelm his mouth.

The crispness told him it had been deep-fried. Its interior was only slightly firmer than tofu pudding, but it was so delicious and refreshing. The condiments gave extra flavor and texture to the dish.

The unpleasant odor was gone without a trace. Strong and wonderful tastes spread over his tongue.

Now he understood. It was so aromatic that it was stinky. Only real foodies were able to find that aroma through its stink.

The aroma after the stink. The perfect balance of crispness and softness in the hot juice. It was an experience he would never forget.

“The taste is out of this world! I have not one regret in life!”

Abraham swallowed the stinky tofu with a satisfied smile.

The sight made the mouths of the customers watching water. They were baffled by Abraham’s sudden change in attitude towards the stinky tofu.

Christy was the most shocked. After all, she had smelled that strong odor in person. She couldn’t be around that stinky tofu one more second, but such a highborn man as Abraham was able to stuff his face with it.

Abraham and Carla finished their stinky tofus almost at the same time. Then they both turned their eyes to the untouched one Christy had ordered.
