A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

Chapter 1898: Anorexic Lady

“Do you know what elves have the most?” Irina asked Mag.

“Elves?”

“It’s plant and nature magic casters.” Irina smiled. “As long as we give them a plot of land, a handful of seeds, and a day’s time, they could make a whole forest.”

Mag blinked. He suddenly realized that his perspective was narrow.

After returning to the restaurant, Mag began his preparation work for the busy afternoon operations.

Mapo Tofu was destined to be the star for lunch hour today. This classic Sichuan cuisine found in Chengdu, China had a brilliant color and irresistible taste.

“Boss, what’s the relationship between the Mapo Tofu and the tofu pudding?” Yabemiya asked curiously as she watched Mag grind the tofu.

Mag thought for a while, and replied, “They’re probably… like a youthful lady and a middle-aged woman.”

“Then isn’t the Mapo Tofu a little inferior?”

“No, they have their own tastes and fans.” Mag shook his head with a smile. She was still too young to know that mature women were a whole category on their own.

In the restaurant, everyone was busy with the preparatory work, and the line outside the restaurant also began to grow longer.

Within the line was an eye-catching pair of father and daughter.

It was a big, bald man with tattoos all over and a scrawny young lady.

The young lady was so thin that even after wearing her cotton pants, she still appeared as though the wind could break her.

Her hands outside of her sleeves were almost just skin and bones. Her face was very pale, and her cheeks were sunken. Furthermore, her forehead appeared to protrude out even more because of the lack of meat on her face, and she looked very annoyed.

“I want to go home!” Georgina said with a frown. Her voice was weak and shrill.

“Georgina, it’s Father’s birthday today. Just have a meal with me. I heard that this restaurant is not bad. Look, there are so many people lining up,” Kenneth said with a smile. He had a gentle tone unbefitting of his bald head and tattooed body and the image they gave him.

“No… I don’t want to eat!” There was an obvious disgust on Georgina’s face. She turned and quickly walked away.

However, Kenneth held her small shoulders with a smile, and said, “Be good. Why don’t you just accompany me and take a seat inside? You haven’t sat down with me for a long time. Do it for me, even if it’s just a casual chat.”

Georgina looked at Kenneth impatiently with a frown for a very long while before she stopped struggling. However, she resolutely said, “I’ll make myself clear. I will not eat anything.”

“Alright. You just have to go in and take a seat with me. You can decide whether or not you want to eat.” Kenneth finally smiled brightly like a child who just got candy. As much as he was glad, there was a hint of sadness behind the smile.

He was also a reputable person with two short-distance trading groups and also a mine outside the city under him.

Many years ago, his wife passed away from an illness, leaving his underaged daughter behind.

He had been raising the child up alone all these years, and gave her the best of everything. He would even pick the stars and moon in the sky for her as long as she could grow up happily.

However, his precious little daughter met a scumbag outside, and got her heart utterly shattered. For a long time, she did not eat or drink, and now the healthy, cute, and extroverted young lady had become scrawny and skinny.

His heart was bleeding.

However, even if he broke that scumbag’s third leg, he could still not make her regain the passion for life.

Georgina’s greatest problem was the inability to eat normally.

She hated all foods, including those that she used to like.

The mention of eating would make her annoyed, and she would even start throwing up.

After consulting many doctors and magic casters, and after trying different methods, he could still only watch her grow thinner day after day.

A few days ago, he heard his friend say that the food in this restaurant was delicious, so he specially brought Georgina over with hopes that this restaurant would make her eat a little something.

Georgina pulled her hat a little lower, almost covering her eyes. She lowered her head, and looked just like a scrawny little chicken who wanted to block out the entire world.

Everyone looked away, as though they did not want to disturb this sensitive young lady.

“Young lady, Boss Mag’s culinary skills are really superb. As long as you try his dishes, there will be no way you can resist them.” Harrison, who was standing beside them, struck a conversation with Georgina.

Georgina turned subconsciously to look at the plump and kind-looking Harrison, and was stunned.

It was also Harrison’s first time seeing Georgina’s face. He suddenly pitied her when he saw how skinny she was.

Georgina quickly looked away, and lowered her head even more, as though she saw Harrison’s expression, and knew what he was thinking.

Kenneth glared at Harrison, and moved Georgina behind him to protect her.

Harrison realized that his actions might be seen as ill-mannered to a young lady. He recalled that pair of fearful eyes and her scrawny look, and could not help but sympathize with her.

Although the bald middle-aged man appeared big and strong, Harrison still looked at Georgina apologetically, and said, “I’m sorry, Miss, please allow me to apologize for my lack of manners just now. I hope you can forgive me.”

Kenneth was stunned. He sized up Harrison. Although this young chap might be a little fat, he looked like a kind person. After hesitating for a while, he chose to make way.

Georgina’s eyelashes, which were hidden under her hat, trembled. She did not expect Harrison to actually apologize to her, and was a little shocked. Recently, people who had seen her face would almost all back off, but this fat man did not.

“I am a regular at Mamy Restaurant. I’ve witnessed almost its entire journey from when it only had one dish to becoming this famous in Chaos City, or even the Norland Continent.” Harrison saw that Georgina did not seem repelled by him, so he smilingly asked, “Guess how long it took?”

For the past two years, Georgina had not followed any news related to food, and also had not heard of this restaurant. However, she knew that for a restaurant to become famous throughout the entire city, and even throughout the entire Norland Continent, it had surely taken many years to make it big.

“You would never be able to guess it. Only five months,” Harrison answered himself. Smiling, he continued, “Mamy Restaurant only spent five months to go from a restaurant no one knew about to the best restaurant in Chaos City. And its name even spread to the whole of the Norland Continent because of all the essays and articles written by foodies.”

“Five months?” Georgina looked up in shock at Harrison.
