Fifty-Seven: Magic Ingredients Also Have Expiration Dates

The next day, Chen Ze got up especially early. Although he had fallen asleep in a daze the night before, he felt as though he hadn't slept enough.

Chen Ze scratched his head. Lafra wasn't in the bedroom, and had it not been for Lafra's fragrance still lingering, Chen Ze would have thought he was hallucinating.

Chen Ze went to the bathroom to freshen up briefly, then he headed down to the restaurant.

As soon as he went downstairs, Chen Ze saw a figure busily moving about in the kitchen. The lovely golden hair and height immediately gave away that it was Lafra.

Chen Ze suddenly felt a pang in his stomach; Lafra's cooking was only slightly better than Takeshi Goda's stew, and just barely at that.

"Dear, you're up~" Lafra turned around with a look of surprise, looking even more beautiful in an apron.

"Hmm... yeah, are you making breakfast?" Chen Ze tried to keep a straight face as he rubbed his belly, hoping it would hold up.
