Chapter 14 Interstellar Food
"Xiaopang, I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"
When Jiang Wan woke up after a good night's sleep, it was already noon the next day. Hearing his stomach rumbling, he got up lazily and went downstairs to ask the robot butler for food.
For more than a month, she has been living in fear every day, and she hasn't slept so soundly in a long time.
"The admiral sent over a lot of fruit early in the morning. Wanwan, what would you like to eat?"
Xiaopang brought over a huge tray, which indeed contained a lot of fruits, but there were not many varieties. There were apples that Jiang Wan had eaten on the warship, pears, and... pink peaches?
Jiang Wan thought he was still sleepy, so he rubbed his eyes and looked again. Yes, it was a pink peach, without any red at all.
No, is this peach ripe?
and......
Jiang Wan looked at the small fruits on the big plate and was speechless for a moment.
"The Admiral specifically told you that you don't like drinking nutrient solution, so he sent these fruits over. They were all freshly picked from the Fruit Star. They are very fresh."
Xiaopang pushed the plate in his hand towards Jiang Wan as if he was presenting a treasure, and his words and deeds were meant to help his admiral master gain respect in front of Jiang Wan.
To be honest, Jiang Wan was quite touched.
No one had ever cared about her so much since she was a child. Her only relative trained her very strictly every day. If she failed to complete the task, she would be starved or whipped.
Even if she completed the task perfectly, all she got was "continue next time".
But these fruits can’t fill my stomach.
What's more, the fruits in her space were much better than these wilted, skinny and small fruits that looked as if they were malnourished. She had already gotten tired of eating them during the more than a month in the primeval forest. What she wanted to eat was meals, all kinds of delicious food.
"Xiaopang, besides these, is there anything else to eat, such as meals, pizza, or bread?"
There are many question marks on the little fat boy’s round head.
"Food? Pizza? Bread? Wanwan, what are you talking about? I have never heard of it."
"Never heard of it?" Jiang Wan was stunned. "Um, Xiaopang, do the people here eat anything else besides nutrient solution and fruit?"
"Eat." Xiaopang suddenly realized, "Wanwan, you are talking about other foods. Of course we have them, but the admiral said you might not like the taste of those foods, so he didn't let me prepare them."
She wouldn't like the taste of the food?
Jiang Wan was puzzled. After she met Yin Yi, she only ate an apple and drank a bottle of nutrient solution with a strange taste, and didn't eat anything else. Why was Yin Yi so sure that she would not like the taste of the food here?
Could it be that... the food here tastes the same as that nutrient solution?
No way?
Jiang Wan couldn't believe it. In this vast interstellar space with such advanced technology, there was no delicious food?
"Xiaopang, I don't really want to eat these fruits now. I want to eat something else. Is that okay?"
Jiang Wan discussed the matter with Xiaopang.
"of course can."
Xiaopang agreed readily, saying that the admiral had already instructed that Wanwan could have whatever she wanted.
"But I'm just a robot and I can't cook. I'll ask a nearby restaurant to deliver some for you."
Takeout? That's fine too.
"Okay, thank you, Fatty."
Jiang Wan thought the takeaway wouldn't be delivered so quickly, so she went back upstairs to wash up. Unexpectedly, when she came down after washing up, the takeaway had already been delivered.
So fast?
When I saw Xiaopang taking a beautifully packaged lunch box from another robot outside the door and giving the other party some star coins.
Jiang Wancai realized a serious problem.
The currency used by people in the interstellar world is star coins, and even though she had eight-digit deposits in her original world, she couldn't use it in this world.
In other words, she is now a penniless pauper.
Jiang Wan felt depressed when he thought of the bank card he had carefully stored in the space.
I used to hear people say that the greatest sorrow in life is that the money is gone but the person is still there. Some people also say that the person is gone but the money is still there.
However, she felt that she was the saddest person now. She was still alive and had the money, but she couldn't use it.
"Wanwan, the food is here. This is the signature dish of that restaurant. People who have eaten it on Starnet say it's delicious. Come over and try it."
Jiang Wan, who was immersed in sadness, put his sadness aside temporarily when he heard this. The world is big, but eating is the most important thing.
As for other things, you should worry about them after you have eaten your fill.
Jiang Wan looked at the beautifully packaged lunch box in Xiaopang's hand, and felt a surge of anticipation in his heart. As a foodie, he hadn't had any delicious food for more than a month. Jiang Wan didn't even dare to think about how he had managed to survive that month.
But when the lunch box was opened, the expression on Jiang Wan's face froze.
No, what the hell is this?
Are these restaurants now allowed to sell half-cooked food?
Jiang Wan looked at the piece of meat in the lunch box, the surface of which was already burnt black, but blood was still oozing out when it was cut, and fell into deep silence.
"Xiao Pang, what did you just say? This is the signature dish of that restaurant. Everyone who has eaten it says it's good."
Jiang Wan turned his head mechanically and looked at the robot next to him.
"Yeah, I searched it on Starnet specifically."
Xiao Pang, who was completely unaware of Jiang Wan's silence, was still taking credit for it.
"This restaurant has the best reviews I've found. It's said to have been ranked third in the Imperial Food Rankings."
Third place?
The result is a piece of meat that is burnt on the outside and raw on the inside?
"Wanwan, why don't you eat? Don't you like it? It's okay, I can help you order food from other places."
As he said that, Xiaopang was about to place an order with other restaurants, and Jiang Wan quickly held down his little round hand.
"No, no, no, that's not necessary, Xiaopang. As for me, I suddenly realized that I still prefer eating fruits. I'll just eat these fruits. No need to bother."
Although Jiang Wan is a foodie, he is also curious and looks for some niche delicacies. He has seen all kinds of strange shapes and strange tastes.
But she had never seen the one in front of her.
She usually even eats her steaks medium-rare or above, okay?
Let her eat raw meat?
She is not an orc who can transform at any time, so she'd better decline the offer.
"Oh, okay."
Xiaopang poured the piece of meat into the trash can next to him with a look of regret.
There's no way. It's just a robot and doesn't need to eat. There are only two people in the house who need to eat. The admiral never eats these foods. He only drinks nutrient solution and doesn't eat them every night, so they can only be thrown away.
