Regardless, Lin Xiao must have spent quite a bit on this dish, the labor cost alone would not be cheap.
However, deception is still deception!
Unforgivable.
Thinking this, she took a bite of the poached chicken.
"Hmm?!"
Li Shuxiao almost swallowed her own tongue.
Why was it so delicious?!
At this moment, she felt that all the food she had eaten in the past twenty years was wasted.
Those foods were merely to satisfy her hunger, to prevent her from feeling hungry. But now, with this one bite, she seemed to finally understand what the true essence of gourmet food was.
Poached chicken!
She had eaten poached chicken for so many years, and this was the first time she had encountered poached chicken that made her almost eat her tongue along with it!
She glanced at the other people at the table. Whether it was her sister, or her aunt and uncle, they all looked satisfied but not particularly shocked.
Xun'er and Luo Bing were also engrossed in their meals, with no hint of curiosity.
Could it be that the food they usually ate was of this caliber?
Impossible...
With that thought, she reached for the steamed fish and the lobster...
Impossible.
Li Shuxiao felt as if she were dreaming. After just two bites of the dishes, she felt as if she had entered heaven. The all-encompassing joy, every cell in her body, every inch of her skin, seemed to be cheering for the deliciousness she was tasting.
"So... delicious..."
This time, she finally couldn't hold back and uttered these words.
"How is it? My brother-in-law's cooking is quite good, isn't it?" Luo Qinghan said this with great pride. Lin Xiao's culinary skills were truly one of a kind. At least, she hadn't met anyone whose cooking was better than Lin Xiao's.
She had eaten at Michelin-starred restaurants and had been served by banquet chefs, but the same dishes, when prepared by others, always lacked something compared to Lin Xiao's.
She didn't understand why decades of culinary experience couldn't compare to Lin Xiao's skill.
Let alone her, even Lin Xiao himself didn't quite understand it.
He felt that as his cultivation increased, when he cooked, he could somehow sense the most appropriate way to cut the ingredients, the perfect cooking time, and he could control the temperature to within a single digit.
Therefore, for any dish, he could guarantee not only the most perfect flavor but also that the nutrients of the ingredients were at their peak.
Especially today, he felt as if he had grasped the rules of nature.
"Is this really brother-in-law's cooking?" Li Shuxiao couldn't help but ask. It was so outrageously delicious, why were her sister and the others not even slightly surprised?
"Before, I couldn't imagine it either, but over time, I got used to it. Without his cooking, Xun'er wouldn't even eat," Luo Qinghan sighed. "I'm worried that when Xun'er grows up, she'll still be pestering her dad to cook."
"It's not impossible," Lin Xiao chuckled. "Cooking for my darling Xun'er, I wouldn't get tired of it even for decades."
"What about me?" Luo Qinghan pouted, clearly thinking he liked Xun'er more than her.
"I'll never get tired of it in my life!"
As he spoke, Lin Xiao reached out and took her hand, his expression instantly becoming affectionate.
Smooth talker!
Seeing this, Li Shuxiao got goosebumps!
