章節 60: An Honor
"Wow, come chase me, Little White~~"
"Woof woof!"
"You can't catch me~~"
"Woof woof woof!"
In the yard, Yueyue and the little white dog were playing a game of chase.
Ren and Jada watched from the windowsill, smiling at the scene.
The day after deciding to keep Little White, Ren and Yueyue eagerly took the puppy to the vet for flea treatment, vaccinations, and a bath. They even set up a cozy little bed for the dog—a large basket with a soft cushion.
Yueyue had initially wanted Little White to sleep with her on the bed, but Ren and Jada quickly vetoed that idea.
No way were they risking the dog peeing on the bed.
"Actually, having a puppy to keep her company is pretty nice," Ren said as he watched Yueyue running around with Little White.
At least it kept her from constantly wanting to play with electronic devices or demanding to play "Magical Girl vs. Monsters" role-playing games.
Adults playing those games could feel a bit embarrassed.
"Yeah, as long as she doesn't lose interest after a few days," Jada sighed.
Children's interests were fickle. Today she might love the puppy, but she could forget about it in a week, leaving them with the responsibility.
"So we need to teach her how to take care of it properly," Ren said with a smile.
"Wow, Little White, you caught me!"
Little White kept licking Yueyue's leg, and she picked up the dog, rubbing its head with her small hands.
The puppy didn't resist, lifting its head and squinting happily, its tail wagging. It clearly enjoyed the attention from its little owner.
"Hee hee."
Yueyue's bright, clear eyes curved into crescent moons as she smiled, her interest in the obedient puppy growing stronger.
...
Time passed quietly.
In the next two weeks, new chapters of **Cooking Master Boy** kept coming out.
During this time, Xiao Dangjia encountered future protagonist Siro and even recreated the mysterious Guoba dish. The plot didn't become dull after the special chef test ended; it remained tight and maintained high quality, causing Picca Comics' sales to rise steadily. Their single-day sales went from over 100,000 to 210,000.
Unfortunately, it still didn't surpass Jia Rong Comics.
During this period, Jia Rong Comics released a new series by a second-tier star manga artist they had poached, which received a very positive response and boosted their sales further.
Ren wasn't too concerned about this.
His manga sales were on the right track, and there wasn't much to adjust.
Besides sales, the popularity of **Cooking Master Boy** was also rising in other areas.
For example, it started to gain attention among some food vloggers, who began recommending it to each other.
Just like in his previous life, some vloggers tried to recreate the dishes from the manga. Some of these dishes turned out surprisingly tasty, drawing in more food enthusiasts interested in the manga.
"Wow, this Rainbow Porridge is actually pretty good."
"Yeah, I tried making it myself. It's really good. Not only did I enjoy the food, but my internet speed has also improved a lot."
"Wait, eating food can upgrade your internet?"
"No, I just moved to a new place. The hospital Wi-Fi is really good."
"..."
"By the way, has anyone tried making that Guoba dish?"
"Nobody's going to make that giant iron ball thing..."
"But I really admire the Porter. To think of so many weird dishes, is he from England?"
Ren was flipping through videos, watching the growing number of food recreations, and couldn't help but feel delighted.
It was gratifying, a kind of indirect recognition of his hard work.
It made him feel like he was back in his original world. However, when he saw the last comment, he frowned.
This is just the beginning.
These are just appetizers.
When dishes like Golden Smiling Dumplings, Great Magic Panda Tofu, and Soul-Calming Buns appear, the world of dark cuisine will truly come to life.
Just as Ren was about to continue watching, something nudged his foot.
"What's wrong?"
It was Little White, wagging its tail and looking up at him. After a few seconds of eye contact, the puppy whimpered and lay down on his foot, making pitiful noises as if seeking attention.
"Hey, why not use this?" Suddenly, Jada appeared beside Ren, holding her phone. "Look, this app translates dog language. It can detect what the dog is saying."
"Really? You believe that stuff?"
Ren looked at Jada with a mixture of disdain and amusement, making her blush. "What's wrong with that?"
"Nothing, just that you're still a kid at heart..." Ren's voice trailed off.
"What's the matter?" Jada asked curiously.
"Jada, your foot."
"My foot? What about it?"
"Nothing, I'm just honored to have you step on me."
"Hmph." Jada huffed, but seeing Ren's expression, she couldn't help but smile as she lifted her foot off his.
Serves you right for calling me old indirectly!
"By the way... we're going to Huangcheng in a few days."
Recently, Xena had invited them to watch the dance in Huangcheng.
Ren planned to confess to Jada that day.
If it went well, he wouldn't just be a lazy fish but an...
An ambitious lazy fish!
"Yeah, the company's not too busy. It's a good time for a trip," Jada said with interest. "After reading your manga, I'm really curious about the Six Dance. Finally, I get to see it in person!"
But then she thought of something and looked at Little White, who was snuggling against Ren's leg. "What about Little White?"
"Oh, I've arranged for Claire to take care of him for two days."
