Crossing the Star Railway: The Beginning of the Starry Sky Twins

Chapter 261: Add a Meal

"It's out of the pot. It's out of the pot."

Xing put the dumplings in a bowl and called Ruan Mei, who was sitting in the tent, to come over and eat.

Ruan Mei stood up when she heard the shouting, and slowly walked to the table and sat down.

As soon as I sat down, Xing had already placed a bowl of steaming dumplings in front of me.

Xing didn’t make much, after all, neither Bronya nor Ruan Mei had big appetites.

There was only more in my bowl and Jizi's bowl.

"You're really thoughtful."

Jizi looked at the bowls of the others and saw that there were only ten dumplings in Bronya's bowl, while her own bowl was almost twice as many as Bronya's. She couldn't help but roll her eyes at Xing.

"I saw that you haven't eaten for a long time, so I gave you more. I have absolutely no other intention."

Hoshimi Himeko didn't appreciate it and explained with a pout.

"Haha, it's okay. If Sister Jizi can't finish her meal, I can help you eat it."

Bronya couldn't help but smile when she saw the two of them like this.

"Ahem, alright, Bronya, eat what's in your bowl first. If it's not enough, ask Sister for more."

Although Ji Zi said that, she hadn't eaten dumplings for a long time. If they tasted good, she might eat them all.

Himeko and Bronya each took a bite of the dumpling, and the anticipation in their eyes gradually turned into surprise.

"It's really delicious. If this were a test, I would give it 91 points."

Jizi nodded in praise as she tasted it in her mouth.

"The 9 points less is because the score was 6-folded. I understand."

Xing accepted Ji Zi's praise without hesitation and changed it to full marks.

"Hmm... I can give it 100 points."

Bronya swallowed the dumplings and said with a smile.

"Bronya, you're not afraid that this guy will become proud even if you give him such a high price."

"It's okay, I'm not afraid."

Seeing Bronya acting like a caring young wife, Jizi could not help but shrug helplessly.

It's so obvious what Bronya is doing, and I don't know how far she has come with the captain.

As the three were talking, only Ruan Mei quietly scooped out a dumpling with a spoon, looked at it carefully and then put it into her mouth.

As soon as I tasted it, I heard a voice next to my ear.

"How is it? Is it delicious?"

Ruan Mei chewed carefully for several seconds before slowly answering.

"Yeah, it's delicious."

Although she said so, Ruan Mei's expression remained indifferent, and it was impossible to tell whether she thought the food tasted good or not.

"You don't look like it."

Xing knew that Ruan Mei was like this, but she still raised her eyebrows and joked.

"I'm not good at showing my inner thoughts on my face, you know that."

Ruan Mei wiped her mouth gracefully and said to Xing.

Seeing Ruan Mei like this, Bronya couldn't help but feel that this genius had reached the ceiling in practicing the phrase "not showing one's emotions on one's face".

"You're not going to eat?"

Xing saw Ruan Mei eating just one and started wiping her mouth, and couldn't help but ask.

"Ah, no, it's just my personal habit."

Ruan Mei shook her head slightly, then put the handkerchief back.

"I thought you didn't want to eat anymore. When you eat at the table, you wipe your mouth after taking a bite. The chef will be very unhappy if he sees that. I thought you disliked the food."

Xing educated Ruan Mei.

Ruan Mei blinked, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

But after a long silence, Ruan Mei finally spoke.

"Sorry, I won't do that anymore... I haven't had a meal with other people for a long time, and I've forgotten some of my table manners."

"Eh? Ms. Ruan Mei, have you always eaten alone?"

Upon hearing this, Bronya couldn't help but feel sorry for Ruan Mei. Is this the legendary... having no friends?

"When I was little, I often ate with my parents. When I was older, I would eat with my grandmother... But those are all distant memories."

"Eh?"

When Bronya heard this, she wondered, "A long time ago?"

Doesn’t that mean Ruan Mei has no family now?

Bronya, who was once an orphan, now felt more sympathy for Ruan Mei.

"Do we... have to talk about such a heavy topic while eating? Xing, it's all your fault."

Ji Zi was listening on the side, and the dumplings no longer smelled good. She could not help but interrupt this inappropriate topic.

Xing smiled awkwardly and scratched his head.

"Eat, eat, stop talking. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

The cliffside was unusually quiet, with only the sound of chewing and the occasional slurping of soup.

"Hmph! Hmph!"

Suddenly, an abrupt sound interrupted the rare silence. A dimensional piggy bank came out of the woods, walked to the table curiously and looked up.

"Sniff--hmm!"

Dimension Piggy Bank sniffed and was sure that the smell on the table was the same one he had just smelled.

"What is this? What a strange pig."

When Bronya and Himeko heard the sound, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look. Their first impression of this dimensional piggy bank was, what kind of pig is this? It looks so weird?

"Huh? A Dimensional Piggy Bank?"

Ruan Mei was a little surprised, because this kind of creature's habit is to be afraid of other creatures, but this dimensional piggy bank would actually take the initiative to approach humans?

"Hey? You came just in time."

Xing was delighted when he saw a dimensional piggy bank suddenly appear.

And the dimensional piggy bank seemed to understand Xing's words. Hearing that it came just in time, it couldn't help but hum twice with a happy tone.

I guess he felt that he had arrived at mealtime and that he should give himself something to eat.

"I'll just grill you to add to the dish."

Xing stared at the Dimension Piggy Bank and smiled evilly.

"Humph!"

Upon hearing this, the Dimension Piggy Bank jumped half a meter high in fright, then took a few steps back vigilantly, but from time to time he still glanced at the dumplings in the bowl on the table.

However, after hesitating for a long time, this dimensional piggy bank suddenly turned around and dived into the woods.

"Ah, that little pig was scared away by you."

When Bronya saw that the Dimension Piggy Bank had slipped away, she couldn't help but say to Xing in a reproachful manner.

"It's okay, I'll be back soon."

Xing laughed. After all, since Zhang Zhang was here, that meant Topa must be nearby as well.

"How can you be so sure..."

Before Bronya could finish her words, she heard a sound coming from the woods.

rustling-

"Baibai, the person you said wanted to eat you is right here?"

"Hum-"

"Okay, I'll help you teach him a lesson."

As he spoke, Topa pushed aside the bushes and walked out, his eyes fixed on the tent under his feet.

But when his eyes turned to the front, Topa was stunned.

"Eh? Dear friends from Wumingke, I didn't expect to see you all here... and Ms. Ruan Mei!"

Topa was shocked. He didn't expect that he would meet Ruan Mei just by taking a walk.

It was a relief to see this genius who ruthlessly rejected even the request for business cooperation from his own boss Diamond himself.

"Eh? Miss Toppa?"

Bronya was stunned. She didn't expect to see Topa here.

"Um... the ones who just said they wanted to eat the bill... weren't they you guys?"

Topa smiled awkwardly. After all, he was just saying a second ago that he would teach the guy who bullied Zhang Zhang a lesson.

But now it seems that all the injustice that Zhang Zhang suffered was in vain.

So Zhang Zhang let out a dissatisfied hum.

"Little guy, you took it seriously just because I teased you."

Xing looked at the angry look on Accounting and said cheerfully.

Chuang Chuang became even more dissatisfied.

"Ms. Topa, would you like to have some food together..."

Bronya said this out of habit, but she regretted it the moment she finished speaking.

Because Xing only made so many dumplings, there were no extra ones. He couldn't let Topa eat what was left in his bowl, right?

"Are you eating... dumplings? I seem to have seen this kind of food on some planet before, but I have never tasted it. I'll be polite then."

Topa looked at the dumplings in the bowl and smiled.

It’s not that I want to eat, but mainly because Ruan Mei is also eating here, so I can stay at the table and chat with her for a few minutes while eating.

Otherwise it would be awkward to stand aside by myself.

"Forehead..."

Xing looked at Bronya helplessly. This girl was too straightforward and thought too much about inviting others first, but forgot about the dumplings.

But of course he couldn't let Bronya down, so he immediately stood up and prepared to make another one.

"Ms. Toppa, please sit down. I'll make you a fresh portion."

"Eh? Freshly made... The method of making this thing should be similar to that of making steamed buns, right? It should be very troublesome, so why not just forget it."

When Topa saw that Xing wanted to make it for him, he couldn't help but wave his hand, thinking that this was a bit too troublesome.

"It's not a problem. You want to eat too, right? I'll use some real effort and make it for you right away.

Xing said as she walked back to the table where she had been making dumplings.

"real Kong Fu?"

When Topa heard this word, he couldn't help but feel curious.

And Zhang Zhang really seemed to be craving for the dumplings, so he didn't refuse.

This time, Xing did not choose to knead the dough with his hands, but threw a bag of flour and a pile of solid clean water into the air.

After a long time of taking out the baseball bat, Xing looked at the ingredients in the air seriously.

A faint destructive force suddenly surged up around him and spread in all directions.

The power of destruction violently tore the outer packaging of the flour into pieces, and the flour inside also fell and was about to become a cloud of white smoke.

Xing Meng gripped the bat tightly, and the thunder shattered the solid clean water into the most primitive form of life. The violent wind from the bat formed a tornado that stirred the clean water into it and mixed it thoroughly with the flour, and it turned into a rudimentary dough in the air.

"Rules are meant to be broken!"

The next second, Xing swung the bat and started hitting the dough in the air quickly.

"!!!"

Topa was shocked. Is it necessary?

Not only Toppa, but Himeko and Bronya were also shocked. Is this how the power of destiny can be used?

The bat was moving very fast, and everyone could only see a faint black shadow whipping the dough in the air.

The dough changed its shape in the air like a strange slime until it became extremely smooth.

Snapped--

The dough was beaten for half a minute and finally fell on the chopping board, his life or death unknown.

But there was no moment of sadness for the dough, as its place was immediately replaced by a piece of dreamy pink tapir meat and a pile of green vegetables.

"This moment, the time of death."

The power of hunting surged, and as the greatsword in Xing's hand was pulled out from the void, countless sword lights and shadows began to carry out precise decomposition work on the nightmare tapir meat and vegetables.

At the same time, various seasonings are added and mixed thoroughly...

The dough on the side was not spared either, and eventually turned into pieces of evenly thin dumpling skins.

Wrap the dumplings simply and put them into the pot as you would cook dumplings, then cover the pot with a lid.

"Skyfire—unsheath!"

A not-too-big pillar of flame rose from the ground, blowing the pot in Jiang Xing's hand into the air.

Xing took this opportunity to symbolically wash his hands, and then dried them over the fire.

The flames subsided, and the pot, which had lost its impact force, fell down.

Xing took the handle steadily and opened the lid of the pot. Hot steam gushed out of the pot, and the aroma of dumplings wafted in.

Serve out two bowls, bring one in front of Topa and place the other in front of the account.

"Okay, the dumplings are hot from the pot, it's time to eat."

Xing waved and gestured to Topa.

"Oh...oh um...thank you."

Still a little confused, Topa nodded.

Topa, who was just shocked that Xing still had the power of hunting, looked at the dumplings in front of him and couldn't help but feel that he seemed to have focused on the wrong thing.

For a moment Topa's mind kept echoing.

Damn, how could someone use the power of three kinds of destiny to make a meal of dumplings?
