"Done!" Dan Feng looked with satisfaction at the dishes he had carefully prepared, a strong sense of accomplishment surging in his heart.
He smiled, imagining the surprised expressions on everyone's faces when they tasted these delicacies, and his mood grew even more cheerful.
Time passed minute by minute as Dan Feng quietly waited for everyone's arrival.
Finally, a faint sound of keys came from the door, and he immediately realized that Roxy had returned.
Dan Feng stood up and quickly walked out of the dining room, his gaze heading straight toward the door.
Sure enough, the door slowly opened, and Roxy walked in, followed closely behind by the landlady, Mayibeia, and Galdaruf.
Dan Feng noticed that Galdaruf was holding a jar that looked like wine in his hand—presumably something the landlady had asked him to bring.
As soon as the landlady stepped into Dan Feng and Roxy's residence, she was captivated by the scene before her. It was a decorating style she had never seen before, completely different from the houses in Millishion.
The interior of Dan Feng's house had a unique charm. Compared to the clean and simple style common in Millishion, this place had many more warm and cozy elements.
"Welcome everyone to our new home! No need to rush into touring yet—come on, let's hurry and have dinner before the delicious dishes Dan Feng made get cold!" Roxy said with a full smile on her face, gently placing the fruits she was carrying on the ground nearby.
Hearing Roxy's words, everyone nodded in agreement.
After all, they had been fortunate enough to taste Dan Feng's personally cooked dishes once before, and the flavor was simply unforgettable, truly exceptional.
Moreover, Dan Feng's unique cooking methods made them look forward to this meal with great anticipation.
Led by Dan Feng and Roxy, everyone cheerfully entered the residence's dining room.
The moment they stepped into the dining room, a rich aroma of food rushed toward them.
This fragrance came from the interweaving of various different dishes. For a moment, all sorts of scents filled the air, constantly teasing their taste buds and instantly igniting their appetites.
Everyone sat down one by one according to their seats, while Dan Feng and Roxy took the head positions, looking toward the landlady and the others.
Once everyone was seated steadily, Dan Feng stood up and spoke in his calm voice: "Thank you so much, landlady and everyone, for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the housewarming banquet for me and Roxy. We're truly grateful!"
With that, he lightly waved his fingers, and a cluster of flames rose from his fingertips, accurately landing on the several candles placed in the center of the table.
In an instant, the candlelight flickered, and warm illumination lit up the entire dining room, adding a touch of cozy atmosphere to the banquet.
"Dan Feng, these look delicious just from the appearance—your skills are still as amazing as ever!" Mayibeia stared straight at the more than ten beautifully presented, aromatic, and flavorful dishes on the table, drooling so much that her mouth was practically watering.
Galdaruf, watching Mayibeia's greedy cat-like behavior from the side, couldn't help but remind her: "Mayibeia, you're pregnant now—it's better to eat more light foods."
However, Mayibeia didn't take Galdaruf's words in at all; her full attention was captured by the delicacies before her.
She coquettishly said to Galdaruf: "Mmm~ No way! It's so rare to get to eat Dan Feng's cooking—today I just want to eat my fill, okay~ Hubby~"
As she spoke, Mayibeia didn't forget to grab Galdaruf's arm with both hands, shaking it back and forth like a child, her tone full of playful whining.
Faced with Mayibeia acting so cute and spoiled, Galdaruf had no resistance at all.
He sighed helplessly and finally nodded, compromising: "Alright, but you can't eat too much, or it won't be good for your body or the baby!"
"Okay~" Seeing that Galdaruf had agreed, Mayibeia immediately beamed with joy and quickly responded.
Right after, she swiftly picked up the spoon Dan Feng had prepared for everyone and prepared to dig in heartily.
However, the utensils Dan Feng picked up were different from theirs. What Dan Feng held were chopsticks from his previous life—a type of utensil completely unseen in this world.
The sharp-eyed Roxy immediately noticed the two small items in Dan Feng's hand. Not knowing what they were, she promptly asked Dan Feng what they were.
The others, hearing Roxy's question, also turned their gazes toward the things in Dan Feng's hand.
"These are called chopsticks—eating utensils from my homeland. They're very convenient for picking up food," Dan Feng explained to everyone.
Even after learning they were utensils, the group still didn't understand how these two sticks could be used as such—surely they couldn't even drink soup with them?
Seeing this, Dan Feng steadily picked up a piece of meat with the chopsticks and slowly brought it to Roxy's mouth.
When Roxy saw that Dan Feng was actually feeding her a piece of meat in front of others, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks.
However, she didn't hesitate at all. She quickly opened her small mouth, took a bite, and firmly held the piece of meat between her lips from Dan Feng's chopsticks.
As Roxy chewed, a unique aroma of stir-fried meat quickly spread through her mouth.
This scent seemed meticulously blended from countless spices—rich yet mellow, leaving an endless aftertaste.
Roxy couldn't help but squint her eyes, her face showing an expression of utter satisfaction, exactly the same as when she ate sweets.
"Mmm~ Delicious!" Roxy couldn't help letting out an involuntary exclamation, drawing everyone's attention.
Seeing Roxy's intoxicated reaction, the others' appetites were also aroused. They eagerly scooped up a piece of the unknown stir-fried meat with their spoons and put it into their mouths.
The moment that delicious food touched their tongues, the same expression as Roxy's appeared on their faces—satisfaction and delight. In that instant, this dish was absolutely world-class! That was the charm of stir-frying!
"Whoa! So good! Hubby, quick—pour me a glass of wine. I want to eat and drink together!" Mayibeia excitedly shouted to Galdaruf.
"Mayibeia, you can't drink—that's what we agreed on before!" Galdaruf said with a serious expression.
"Oh~ Fine." Though Mayibeia felt a bit disappointed that she couldn't pair fine wine with these delicious dishes, she also knew deep down that these dishes alone were enough to satisfy her taste buds fully.
And so, everyone began to fully enjoy this lavish feast.
Their bowls were filled with fragrant mixed-grain rice, paired with those mouthwatering dishes—every bite left them intoxicated and unable to stop.
Not long after, the full Roxy leaned back in her chair and shyly said to Dan Feng: "Dan Feng, could you make this every day from now on? It's really, really delicious!"
"As long as Roxy likes it, I'll make it for you every day."
"Hehe~"
