“Song Lele, your name sounds so much like a girl’s, what’s up with that?”

Tang Feng joked half-heartedly.

However, Song Lele seemed annoyed, “It’s the name my parents gave me, what can I do about it?”

It was then that Tang Feng seriously listened to her voice.

It was completely different from how she sounded when they were voice-chatting online.

Online, Song Lele’s voice had a robust masculine quality, but in reality, it was more of a clean young man’s voice, although, there was something slightly unnatural when she spoke.

This slight unnaturalness immediately made Tang Feng’s mind tick.

Wow, she uses a voice changer online, that’s one thing, but in real life, she can even pull off a falsetto!

Impressive, girl!

Tang Feng’s eyes rolled as he decided to test the waters once more.

Before Song Lele could react, he grabbed one of her hands and began to examine it while clicking his tongue in admiration:

“You know, Ale, your skin is really nice, even better than those fresh-faced idols.”

“Look at these tender little hands, they’re just like a young lady’s.”

Song Lele’s expression stiffened.

Heavens have mercy, other than her dad, when had any other man ever held her hand!

Tang Feng’s sudden attack caused her face to flush red instantly, and with a jolt, she withdrew her hand.

“What are you doing, young master? I’ve said, I’m not comfortable with physical contact with people!”

“And what’s this ‘Ale’, can you not randomly nickname me?”

As she said these words, there seemed to be a hint of irritation on her face.

Seeing this, a sly flicker quickly passed through Tang Feng’s eyes as he playfully avoided the main issue, “I can’t keep calling you whiskers, can I?”

“Calling you Lele makes it sound like we’re getting all gay with each other.”

“The name ‘Ale’ suits you just right.”

Song Lele probably felt somewhat at a loss for words, her expression a little helpless.

After all, she was currently playing the part of a “real man.”

The mess she created, she had to see the play through even if she cried!

After a good while, she managed to squeeze out, “Forget it, forget it, call me whatever you want, whatever you like.”

“I’m hungry, shall we go eat first?”

Tang Feng was somewhat surprised.

She could endure all this?

Was this girl intending to keep up her masquerade as a man till the end?

The stubborn duck attitude of hers, cute as it may be…

He continued with the topic Song Lele had brought up, “Alright, what do you feel like eating?”

“I know there’s this new Dongbai Restaurant that has a decent environment and taste, why don’t we head there now?”

After getting Song Lele’s approval, Tang Feng took her along to the restaurant.

On the way, he didn’t tease her anymore, instead, he took the opportunity to study his own system.

After all, he had just acquired the system and ought to figure out what functions and limitations his sudden cheat had.

And in less than ten minutes on the road, Tang Feng indeed figured out quite a bit of the system’s functionality.

Scan Everything System, as the name implies, can scan all items and display their properties and uses in a datafied manner.

However, the current system is only at Lv1 and can only scan some of the most basic attributes.

For example, a person’s basic information like name, gender, physique, wealth, measurements, and all that, plus a bit of personal information.

According to the system’s description, as long as Tang Feng could own assets worth ten million, the system would be able to upgrade to the next level.

By then, not only would it be able to scan for more detailed information, but it would also possess some new functions.

Lv3 had higher requirements, needing Tang Feng’s assets to reach a hundred million.

As for the more outrageous Lv4, that would require Tang Feng to have a whopping one hundred billion in assets.

One hundred billion! Not one hundred yuan!

Tang Feng was shocked when he saw this number.

However, he was only slightly shocked for just a moment.

After all, now that the sky was clear and the rain had stopped, Tang Feng felt that he was capable again.

With the cheat by his side, he was that confident!

…

About ten minutes later, inside Dongbai Hotel.

As the host goes with the guest’s preferences, the task of ordering naturally fell upon Tang Feng’s shoulders.

“Sautéed Shredded Pork in Sweet Bean Sauce, ‘Di San Xian’, Guo Bao Rou, Braised Chicken with Mushrooms—let’s go with these four dishes.”

When the dishes were served, the rich aroma almost instantly wafted around them.

As soon as Song Lele tasted the first dish that was served, the Sautéed Shredded Pork in Sweet Bean Sauce, she couldn’t help but give a thumbs up.

“Not bad at all, Tang, the place you chose is great, and the taste is really good!”

Tang Feng said proudly, “Of course, when treating a good brother, how could I choose a place with bad taste? When it comes to finding delicious food, I’m an expert.”

“Plus, let me tell you, despite the simplicity of the names of these dishes I ordered, it’s quite difficult to make them well. The chef’s skills here are genuinely high.”

Song Lele was full of doubt, “What’s so difficult about that?”

“Take this Sautéed Shredded Pork, for example. Isn’t it just about frying the meat and then tossing it in some sauce?”

“Is that considered a high requirement?”

Tang Feng shook his head and said with a hint of mystery:

“That’s where you don’t understand. Even though the process for making Sautéed Shredded Pork looks simple, it involves quite a few tricks.”

“Just frying the meat takes a lot of care; you have to start with previously settled starchy water combined with ingredients that remove any gaminess, marinating the meat before frying, and then the heat control during frying is also hard to master—if it’s undercooked, it feels soggy and lacks any kind of texture.”

“Moreover, this restaurant’s seasoning is quite interesting, a bit different from the usual Dongbai Sautéed Shredded Pork sauce.”

“It must have been modified and innovated by the chef himself.”

However, Song Lele looked at him skeptically, “Come on, Tang, I’m not well-read but don’t fool me.”

“Why do I feel like you’re bragging?”

“It’s getting more ludicrous by the minute—can you even taste the chef’s innovation in the sauce?”

Tang Feng just shrugged his shoulders and didn’t argue.

He knew these weren’t things you could taste, but saw on the system scan results that others couldn’t see.

It not only stated the dish’s sauce had been innovated but even scanned out the exact recipe without missing a detail.

Just then, a waiter serving dishes chimed in with a thumbs up, “Sir, you really are a connoisseur.”

“Many of our hotel’s dishes have been modified by the head chef to better suit the local palate.”

“I didn’t expect you to be able to taste that.”

Tang Feng responded with a smile, modestly saying, “Oh, it’s nothing, I just have a bit of research into gourmet food, that’s all.”

With that, he casually raised his eyebrows at Song Lele.

Meanwhile, Song Lele stared at Tang Feng, obviously dumbfounded.

After gazing at Tang Feng for a good while, she finally gave him a convinced thumbs up.

Bro, you’re awesome!
