Chapter 998: Pretty Chef
Nikkawa Daichi's phone was ringing off the hook.
The crown prince Nikkawa Okazaka had brought his men to surround the hotel Li Xiang was staying in and ordered Chen Xiaobei to go over immediately!
Chen Xiaobei did not hesitate and stepped onto the Somersault Cloud and headed for the city.
To avoid being noticed, Chen Xiaobei put on the Nightstalker Outfit and made himself invisible.
As for the idiot Nikkawa Daichi, Chen Xiaobei had no remorse for him but asked Cang Jingu to finish him off and then destroy the body using the Body Dissolving Poison!
...
At Biyori Hotel.
On the eighteenth floor, Li Xiang's room was being closely monitored.
Nikkawa Okasaka and the thirty of his men and were hiding in the adjacent rooms, ready to capture Li Xiang.
"What the f*ck! Why isn't Nikkawa Daichi here yet?"
Nikkawa Okasaka was sitting on the sofa, restless. "I've been waiting for nearly two hours now! I'm bored to death!"
"Calm down, your highness!" The chubby guy on the side said, "I know Li Xiang's combat power. His True Nirvana cultivation is as powerful as our high-tier ninja! Waiting for Nikkawa Daichi to come is the sure-fire way to catch him!"
"You just keep saying that!" Nikkawa Okasaka scowled. "My wedding is near! There cannot be any mishaps! If Nikkawa Daichi don't show up and the criminal escapes, they will become a huge threat to us! How could I stay calm?!"
"I have just called Li Xiang and told him that I will think about letting him into the palace. We have him in our hands!" said the chubby guy who was, in fact, the royal chef who sold Li Xiang out. "Li Xiang ordered dinner just now, he's eating in there now!"
"Fuck! Don't talk about food! I'm so pissed! It's already dark outside and I still haven't eaten! I'm so hungry!" Nikkawa Okasaka scolded.
"What a coincidence!" The chubby royal chef grinned. "Is the Bluefin Prosperity Crane that I cooked your favorite? I saw the hotel buy a huge Bluefin Tuna when we came. They still have not gutted it yet!"
"Oh? Then what are you waiting for? Go prepare it for me!" Nikkawa Okasaka licked his lips and commanded, "Remember! You need to cut the fish and prepare the sauce for me personally!"
"Don't worry, your highness. I will personally prepare your food. I'll make sure of it. How could an ordinary cook qualify to serve you?" The chubby cook smiled smugly and left the room.
Rumble... Rumble...
The two bodyguards swallowed hungrily at the mention of Bluefin Prosperity Crane.
Seemingly, the royal chef's cooking skill must be very scrumptious and uniquely flavored.
...
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting, your highness!"
About ten minutes later, the chubby royal chef pushed a service cart into the room. He lifted the gold food cover and presented a well-made sashimi dish to Nikkawa Okasaka.
Bluefin Prosperity Crane.
Bluefin was referring to the bluefin tuna. This fish was also known as the Rolls Royce of fish and was recognized as the King of Sashimi—the best of sashimi!
Prosperity Crane, on the other hand, refers to the knife work and plating. The crimson red flesh of the tuna was sliced into thin slices like the wings of a cicada and arranged on a large platter to form the wings of a crane!
The fat chef had chosen to use the lowest part of the belly—the most expensive part of the entire fish, which consisted of only one-tenth of the fish.
The belly was marbled with think layers of juicy fats, that melted on your tongue. The marbling also added a lifelike characteristic to the crane.
This plate of sashimi was a work of art.
The mouths of both the bodyguards watered at the mere sight of it.
"Yum..."
Nikkawa Okasaka picked up a pair of chopsticks and picked up a slice of semi-translucent raw fish, dipped it into a mixture of wasabi and soy sauce and then place it into his mouth, savoring it.
The expression on his face was one of relish.
Then Nikkawa Okasaka let out a long, satisfied sigh. "Ahh! Master Akaihi may be number one when it comes to his sashimi knife skills, you are definitely a close second! Mmm... This is so good!"
Nikkawa Okasaka launched his chopsticks repeatedly at the fish at an expeditious pace, unable to stop.
The bodyguards could only stare miserably, swallowing their drool.
"Thank you so much for your kind compliment!"
The chubby royal chef was not mad at being called second but said arrogantly, "Master Akaihi is the God of Cookery in our country! I feel honor for being placed at the second place!"
"Unfortunately, that old man has a temper." Nikkawa Okasaka said as he ate. "No matter what I did to convince him, he refused to cook for my wedding! I only asked for him to cook for our table! He refused to even make a dish for me!"
The chubby royal chef chuckled. "That is Master Akaihi's principle: if anyone wishes to eat his cooking, they will need to give him a dish that meets his expectation in return! Or else he won't cook!"
"Stop talking about it! What a nuisance!" Nikkawa Okasaka's face darkened, irked.
Nikkawa Okasaka was going to inherit the throne! A cook refusing to cook for him was such a shame!
"Excuse me..." Just then, a young female chef walked in.
Even though she was wrapped in a chef jacket, a tall torque blanc on her head, she still looked very beautiful!
Under the torque, her dark long hair contrasted against her fair, marble neck and soft ears. Her features were delicate with fine smooth skin, and twinkling large eyes. The oversized jacket could not hide her tall frame and sexy curves. If she were to put on a different outfit, and some makeup, she would surely become an irresistibly beguiling creature!
"Is there a problem?" When Nikkawa Okasaka, who had been very unhappy, saw this gorgeous chef, he lit up with a sunny smile.
"Your chef used our ingredients but he did not pay... The head chef sent me here to ask if you are paying with card or cash..." She clasped her hands in front of her like a courteous lady.
"Little lady, why are you working in the kitchen with that beautiful face?" Nikkawa Okasaka peered at her, revealing his evil intent. "You look better than a model or a movie star. Do you want to come with me? I can become your sponsor and make you famous! You'll earn big money!"
He got up and then walked toward the beautiful chef, reached his rough palm and slapped her little ass!Previously translated as Hikari Okazaka
