"I'm not quite sure about that," Qin Shanhai said as he casually picked up a stack of documents from the coffee table. It was the task assigned to him from higher up—to receive the little princess from the Taiji Nation.
Included in the documents were some basic details about the little princess, as well as her flight information.
Reading as he spoke, Qin Shanhai added, "She's a hidden class as well. It seems she changed classes only half a month ago and has already reached level 15. Her strength is quite formidable."
"With her performance, studying abroad in our Dragon Kingdom would mean every academy is open to her. I heard that all ten top academies have sent her invitation letters, but she hasn't decided yet which one she'll attend."
"As for why she came to our Jianghai City, it's even more puzzling. Even I can't figure out what business she could possibly have here."
"It seems…" Qin Shanhai furrowed his brow, "she's interested in something specific about Jianghai City. Otherwise, she should have gone to Dragon Capital, where both Jinghua Academy and Guodu Academy are located, right?"
At this point, Qin Shanhai set the documents down and chuckled. "Whatever. As long as the little princess of the Taiji Nation is here with a legitimate purpose, it's my job as the mayor of Jianghai City to treat her well."
Qin Qiu couldn't make sense of the little princess's intentions either, so he simply stopped trying.
...
The next morning.
At the breakfast table, Lu Fan looked at the spread of dishes with an expression of amused disbelief.
Han Ke had fully recovered. She now looked radiant, her beautiful face tinged with a healthy blush of excitement.
Seated at the table, she beamed at Lu Fan and said, "Come on, try it out. What do you think of your auntie's cooking?"
Lu Fan picked up his chopsticks and gave a wry smile. "Auntie, it's just breakfast. Did you really have to make such a feast?"
Han Ke, rarely showing this kind of cuteness, stuck out her tongue and said shyly, "I... I actually just wanted to see if there was any pattern to my Enchanting Chef skill. I got a little carried away and made a bit too much."
"But I did make some progress. This braised pork ribs and stewed hen are both dishes that permanently boost stats. Try a bite!"
As she spoke, Han Ke picked up a portion and placed it into Lu Fan's bowl.
Last night, Han Ke had already used her Enchanting Chef skill to make several dishes that granted stat boosts.
However, most of those dishes only lasted about two hours, and the stat bonuses were minimal—just one or two points at most.
Originally, Lu Fan had assumed that his auntie's cooking would be like any other buff potion: a temporary stat boost with a limited duration.
But later that night, after she made a basket of buns, something incredible happened.
Meat Bun (Enchanted Cuisine): After consumption, restores some HP and permanently increases Strength by 1 (cannot stack with repeated consumption).
A single meat bun that permanently boosts Strength by one point? That was no small deal.
A potion with even a minor, permanent stat boost like that would go for 100,000 to 200,000 yuan on the market!
In other words, Han Ke's single basket of buns had steamed up over a million yuan in value!
Han Ke was so thrilled that she jumped into Lu Fan's arms and wouldn't let go for ages before finally calming down.
Since then, it was like she had discovered a whole new world. She began experimenting with her signature dishes, hoping to find more foods that could permanently increase stats.
If she succeeded again, imagine the value—people would be fighting each other to buy them!
Seeing Han Ke so happy about her potential to earn big in the future, like an excited teenage girl, warmed Lu Fan's heart.
They weren't short on money, so if Auntie wanted to cook, she could buy all the ingredients she liked.
But preparing this much food so early in the morning was a bit much for Lu Fan to handle.
Looking over the eight dishes on the table, he noticed that all of them had minor stat boosts and lasted about two hours, while the braised pork ribs and stewed hen offered permanent increases to Stamina and Spirit, respectively.
Now that was something special.
Even though Lu Fan didn't have much of an appetite in the morning, his aunt's cooking was simply too good. The aroma was mouthwatering, and he couldn't resist—he picked up his bowl and started wolfing down the food.
Just then—
"Rooaarr!" A dragon's roar came from upstairs. Little Night, flapping her wings, shot down like a streak of black lightning and landed on the table. Without any hesitation, she began devouring the meat dishes, gobbling so quickly the bowls clattered noisily.
"Little Night! Slow down! You're getting food splattered everywhere!" Lu Fan tapped her on the head with his chopsticks. Little Night whimpered pitifully and then sat down properly, beginning to eat with delicate little bites—just like a well-mannered little princess.
It was strange, really. Little Night hadn't been all that fond of Han Ke's buns before, but ever since Han Ke changed classes to Enchanting Chef, the dishes she made had become Little Night's absolute favorites.
If it hadn't been for Little Night helping finish everything last night, Lu Fan and Han Ke definitely wouldn't have been able to eat it all.
Lu Fan figured it might be that Little Night simply didn't like regular human food—but enchanted dishes? That was a different story.
Now she wouldn't even touch raw meat. Everything had to be cooked by Han Ke first before she'd eat it.
