Bu Fang clasped his hands behind his back and said that with boundless enthusiasm.

“Hmm? What? Open the door for what?”

The blond girl, Xiao Ai, was struck dumb—she did not seem to understand what Bu Fang had asked her to do. For a moment, the atmosphere was frozen.

Nethery pursed her lips. Then, she rose to her feet and walked toward the door. She was about to push open the door when Xiao Ai finally recovered and hurried over.

“Your Excellency… Let me do this!” Xiao Ai said hastily and pushed open the door.

With a creak, the door was opened. Golden light shone from inside the restaurant, attracting the attention of people.

Many pedestrians in District A were shocked by the scene. Most of them were confused. As residents of District A, they were very familiar with everything here, and they naturally knew what the restaurant was in the past.

Bu Fang glanced out the door with a thoughtful look in his eyes. Nethery returned to her chair calmly, while Xiao Ai was rubbing her palms nervously.

‘What should I do? Opening a restaurant in District A will definitely make everyone target us…’ the handmaid thought to herself. ‘Her Excellency Nethery will be exposed, and then Her Excellency Soul will send experts here to kill her… It’s over! This is all the chef’s fault! We shouldn’t have opened a restaurant in District A!’

Bu Fang, on the other hand, was calm. He had seen everything. “Hmm… Now that we have a restaurant, we need a name.” He stroked his chin thoughtfully.

What should he name the restaurant? Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly. He thought of a brilliant name.

“Let’s name it the Cooking God Little Kitchen,” he said.

Nethery paused, while Foxy, lying under the Path-Understanding Tree, rolled her eyes.

As for Xiao Ai, she stiffened and thought, ‘What kind of name is that? Did he give the restaurant this name to hasten its destruction? Everyone in Void City knows that Her Majesty hates chefs, yet he named it the Cooking God Little Kitchen? Are you really so impatient to get yourself killed?!’

Bu Fang was very satisfied with the name. The System seemed to be thinking as well. After a long time, it said, ‘The name of the restaurant has been confirmed.’

As soon as it said that, a stone tablet emerged outside the restaurant, cracking the ground as it grew taller and taller. The next moment, four characters appeared on it: Cooking God Little Restaurant.

Although there were only four characters, each of them was filled with a unique essence, captivating to look at. If one tried to comprehend them, they could feel the sharpness in them. Despite that, it was a strange name.

A group of people had already gathered outside the restaurant. They were the nobles of District A. Given their status, they had already seen everything, so they were very familiar with everything here. Now that a strange restaurant had emerged, they were naturally very excited and curious.

“Oh? A restaurant?!”

“Who’s the fellow behind this? Are they crazy? Opening a restaurant in District A?”

“Doesn’t this fellow know that the Queen of Curses hates chefs?!”

The nobles laughed derisively. They believed that the restaurant would not last long. What was the use of a restaurant? What was the use of dishes? At most, they could satisfy one’s appetite. Even if the dishes could slightly increase one’s cultivation base, they were nowhere near as good as divine pills.

This was a busy street, and the restaurant sat right opposite a pill-making workshop. How could the dishes served in this restaurant be as good as the divine pills produced by the workshop? Putting aside the Queen’s hatred for chefs, just the decision of opening the restaurant opposite a pill-making workshop was already unwise.

Many people had gathered in front of the restaurant. Of course, they were here for the show. Someone recognized that the restaurant was Nethery’s property. As the last Cursed Goddess, a lot of people had already given up all hope for Nethery, and now, they were even more disappointed.

How was a Cursed Goddess who hung out with a chef qualified to inherit the Queen of Curses’ will and become the master and ruler of Void City?

They believed that the restaurant would be destroyed soon, and Nethery would be killed by the experts sent by Soul!

…

Xiao Ai felt uncomfortable. After all, anyone would feel uncomfortable under the gaze of so many people. “We should leave, Your Excellency. If we stay here, they will look at us as if we are a joke! You are the potential successor of Void City!” she said.

Nethery glanced at Xiao Ai with an easy grace. She felt safer than ever in the restaurant. “Don’t worry, everything will be fine,” she comforted her handmaid.

Xiao Ai was frustrated when she saw how unambitious her Cursed Goddess had become. She turned to Bu Fang.

“Call me Owner Bu,” Bu Fang said before Xiao Ai could say anything to him.

Xiao Ai froze. Tears were about to flow out of her eyes.

“You will be a waiter in the restaurant for a while. Otherwise, Nethery will work as the waiter,” Bu Fang said. After that, he turned and walked toward the kitchen.

How could Xiao Ai allow Nethery to be a waiter in a restaurant? Reluctantly, she pressed Nethery back into her chair, gritted her teeth, and said, “Your Excellency, you just sit here. Let me do the work!” How she wished she could make Bu Fang bleed with a bite. ‘This chef is too much!’

She was, after all, a noble of District A, yet Bu Fang was ordering her around like a servant!

“Don’t worry, I’ll pay for your service… Delicious dishes will be your salary.” Bu Fang’s voice drifted out of the kitchen.

Xiao Ai rolled her eyes. “Your restaurant opens in District A… Do you think you will have customers? Keep dreaming!” She shook her head. She was not optimistic at all. Without customers, this restaurant would have no purpose of existence, and she, as a waiter, did not need to work.
