Bu Fang was yawning as he opened up the entrance of the store. A burst of cold wind blew into the store and was mixed with the cold autumn rain. The rhythmic drizzle was like a curtain as it completely enveloped the entire sky.

Entering the kitchen, he took out the radishes to carry out his daily knife skill training. Then he cooked a few other practice dishes and carried one of practice dishes that was still piping hot to Blacky.

”Blacky, it's time to eat,” Bu Fang placed the dish within the store and called Blacky to come in. It was still raining outside and it would be bad to get wet.

As Blacky breathed in the fragrance, the lazy dog actually stood up and enchantingly strode into the store like a cat… Then it began to gobble down the food within the bowl.

Bu Fang remained expressionless as he thought, ”Why is a dog walking like a cat?”

Fatty Jin and his buddies were drenched as they entered the store while holding up umbrellas. They greeted Bu Fang with smiles on their faces and placed the oil-paper umbrellas at the entrance.

”Owner Bu, good morning. I'll have the same dishes as yesterday,” Fatty Jin sat down at a table and said toward Bu Fang as he patted his robe that was drenched in the rain. The other obese men ordered their dishes as well.

Bu Fang nodded and indifferently walked into the kitchen. After a while, a rich fragrance drifted out from it.

After sending off Fatty Jin and his buddies, Bu Fang was able to rest for a short while. It might be due to the rain, but there was fewer customers than usual.

”Smelly boss! Give me a serving of Fish Head Tofu Soup!”

A loud yell came from outside of the store. Before the person even appeared, her voice had already reached.

Ouyang Xiaoyi's face was filled with excitement as she ran into the store. Her trousers were slightly drenched from the rain, but she did not care in the slightest.

”Smelly boss, I've advanced! Hurry up and give me the Fish Head Tofu Soup!” Ouyang Xiaoyi's eyes were flashing with excitement as she looked at Bu Fang with a face filled with expectations.

Bu Fang was stunned for a moment, then carefully observed the girl. He discovered that there really was a faintly discernible true energy lingering on her skin, which was the manifestation of true energy outside of her body. However, she was unable to skillfully control it, which meant that she had just advanced.

”Oh, alright. Wait for it,” Bu Fang expressionlessly said, then entered the kitchen.

Ouyang Xiaoyi narrowed her eyes as a smile appeared on her adorable face. She was leaning on the window as she eagerly waited for the Fish Head Tofu Soup.

Bu Fang's speed was very fast. He was now extremely familiar with most of the dishes. Even though the cooking steps of the Fish Head Tofu Soup were troublesome, it was nothing for the current him.

The milky white fish soup was exuding a dense amount of hot air, while the flesh of the fish was delicious and tender, and the crystal-clear tofu was delicate and plump.

As Bu Fang placed the Fish Head Tofu Soup at the window, Ouyang Xiaoyi eagerly carried it away. The two of them were well-coordinated and their actions were smooth and natural.

Bu Fang was soon startled as he thought, ”Didn't her job end already?”

Glancing at Ouyang Xiaoyi who was happily drinking fish soup and eating fish, a faint smile appeared on Bu Fang's face.

Drinking a bowl of piping hot Fish Head Tofu Soup during a cold autumn rain was simply a comfortable thing to do.

At the entrance of the alleyway, several figures slowly made their way to the store. Their mood was stifling and heavy.

The Xiao family had brought the fading Xiao Yanyu over. However, none of the Xiao family members seemed to be hopeful and they had sorrowful expressions on their faces.

Xiao Meng was carrying his daughter, Xiao Yanyu, in his arms as he firmly walked toward Fang Fang's Little Store. His face was extremely grim. Since the imperial physicians had already stated that it was a hopeless situation, he could only entrust his hope to this store of unknown origins.

Since he was worried, he had the store investigated for a second time. Even though nothing was discovered, at the very least… he had an inexplicable confidence in the store.

Bu Fang remained expressionless as he watched the Xiao family file into the store and beckoned them to sit down.

Xiao Yanyu's beautiful face was whiter than paper and without a single trace of blood. It was obvious that her life force was depleting rapidly and her aura was extremely weak.

”You said… you can save my sister. I believe in you, that's why I waited until today!” Xiao Xiaolong's voice was slightly hoarse as he stared at Bu Fang and said.

Bu Fang nodded and calmly replied, ”I can definitely save her. However, I need a while to cook the medicinal cuisine. Wait here for a while.”
