Chapter 539 Elemental Culinary Artem
"Yes, it indeed is a bean cake."
Yuan Meng nodded as she looked at the small lotus flower carefully.
Though it looked almost similar to the ones which they had in the mall, Yuan Meng and Ning Wei both knew that it would be anything but similar to that.
And as they had thought it was indeed heavens apart.
The lotus-like bean cake looked beautiful making one think twice if they wanted to eat it or not.
It was indeed a great dilemma for the two ladies.
The cake looked so beautiful that the two didn't want to destroy it by eating them and nor did they want to keep it thinking that it would get spoiled if kept for more than a day.
"Sister Wei, what should we do, I don't have the heart to eat it."
Yuan Meng asked with a pained look on her face.
Though she was also excited to see what it was and was eager to eat it, she felt that it was just too beautiful to be eaten.
"What can I say, he made this for us to eat, so won't it be bad if we don't eat it, it would be like we are not respecting his hard work and time he might have spent in making these."
Ning Wei thought for a moment before speaking lightly with a gentle smile on her lips.
"Hmm, what you said is true as well."
Yuan Meng nodded and then picked up one of them and handed it to her.
"I can't let Qian'er's love and hard work go to waste."
She also took the other one and closed the box, it still had a few bean cakes in it but she thought that it was a good snack and they would have it while leaving work.
She brought the bean cake close to her lips and took a tiny portion with the help of her tongue.
The few men who were looking at how the two ladies ate the small delicacy were obviously gulping down hard.
They were envious, not of Mr Zheng who had lunch with the two beauties but of the bean cakes which had the luck to taste the tongue of the two beauties.
'If only it was me in the place of that cake!'
Some were already fantasizing but they knew that it was only their fantasy.
Ning Wei also copied Yuan Meng while she ate the bean cake.
She looked at Yuan Meng's face which was filled with delight with her eyes closed as she looked to be mesmerised by some beautiful sensation.
As soon as she tried to take a small piece of the cake into her mouth with her lips, Ning Wei tried to chew on it just like how she had tried the bean cake from the restaurant.
But she didn't feel anything in her mouth.
She tried to look around with the help of her tongue but didn't find any piece of the cake.
'Didn't I tell a bite of it?'
Ning Wei wondered as he glanced at the small bean cake which was still on the tip of her fingers, she was clearly able to see that a tiny portion of it was not there which confirmed that she had indeed eaten it.
'Where did it go?'
Just as she was wondering where was her tiny bite of bean cake, Ning Wei noticed that Yuan Meng didn't seem to be moving her jaw's in the slightest.
How come she is not moving her teeth.
It was common knowledge that when one ate anything they would use their teeth.
Even though it was a soft bean cake, Ning Wei knew that they would need to use their teeth albeit subconsciously.
But here, Yuan Meng seemed to have not been using her jaws at all.
She glanced at the leftover bean cake in her fingers with pursed lips.
'What is Sister Meng feeling after eating this?'
It was obvious that she had not felt anything after eating the cake and studying Yuan Meng's expression which was appeared to be delighted made Ning Wei feel that she was not using the correct method to eat the cake.
'Should I close my eyes as well?'
She wondered and closed her eyes while bringing her fingers near her lips.
But this time, she felt something different.
'Ahh, this is so refreshing!'
If not for the fear of dropping her bite Ning Wei would have already exclaimed aloud.
But this helped her not make herself embarrassed in front of so many of her colleagues.
As soon as she took another bite, she felt some sweet liquid at the tip of her tongue.
And only then did she understand why she was not able to taste or feel anything in her first bite.
'So that's how it was!'
It was indeed different, the cake would just melt into your mouth and you won't even know whether you have ever eaten it or not.
Before she was too immersed in the idea of chewing that she was not able to feel the change that she felt at the tip of her tongue.
And that was also why she didn't notice anything.
But as soon as Ning Wei closed her eyes, all her senses were closed and she was subconsciously concentrating just on eating, so she quickly found the difference.
'It was indeed true, the way to eat it is different.'
She wondered while relishing the sweet and refreshing feeling as the taste lingered in her mouth.
Slowly she felt energetic and a new profound feeling made her body feel excited and full of bliss.
This was indeed not any simple cake made by Ye Qian.
It was specially made with the help of the little sparrow's Phoenix Fire.
It was a special technique, that Ye Qian had learned in the Greater Heavens where one would be able to use different kinds of innate propertied of beasts to create delicacies.
It was called the Elemental Culinary Artem.
