The dumplings are filled with pork and chives, and scallions are added for extra flavor. They are very juicy, and there is a thin layer of starch on the part of the dumpling that touches the pan. They are just right when they are slightly browned, and they also have a special soy sauce base flavor.

In Japan, pan-fried dumplings are made using a water-frying method, where a little soy sauce is added to the water to enhance the flavor.

"It tastes great!" Gu Ran said with a smile. "This cooking skill is good enough to be a bride!"

Erii, who was always expressionless, smiled, and with a hint of smugness. She wrote in her notebook, "I can also make Gomoku Fried Rice. Do you want to try some?"

"Okay." Gu Ran didn't want to spoil her mood, so she immediately went to the inner room and started chopping ingredients to prepare fried rice.

"You can really eat that much!" Yuan Zhisheng said, placing the grilled octopus leg in front of Gu Ran.

"I could eat a few more servings." Gu Ran wiped her mouth and ate another fried dumpling. "By the way, I heard that Japanese people don't like dumplings because they saw the horrific scene of a pile of corpses in a river after the nuclear explosion, and they stopped liking dumplings after that. Is that true?"

The air in the room suddenly went still.

Genji sighed: "Would you die if you stopped mocking Japanese people?"

He still remembered when they first met, Genjiro was justifying the Japanese underworld, which led to Gu Ran's sarcastic remarks. He'd gotten used to it by now.

Gu Ran pursed her lips and changed the subject, asking, "Where's Miss Ying?"

“A fishing boat has come into the harbor, so she went to buy some fresh ingredients.” Yuan Zhisheng glanced at the time. “She should be back soon.”

"Great! We'll have delicious seafood tonight!" Gu Ran picked up the sake bottle and poured himself a glass. "If you want to eat seafood, eat as much as you can now. In a few years, when nuclear wastewater is discharged into the sea, we won't be able to eat it anymore!"

"What nuclear wastewater?" the crow asked, chewing on a string of octopuses.

"The wastewater used for cooling after the Fukushima nuclear power plant leak... the nuclear facilities there haven't been fully cleaned up yet, and I don't know what will happen to the residents there," Gu Ran asked. "Speaking of which, wouldn't it be better to just adopt the Russian approach and use a hydrogen bomb to blow up the core, shortening its half-life?"

The crow was illiterate. He looked at the eldest crow and asked, "Is it alright?"

Yuan Zhisheng didn't shy away from discussing these topics. As a science student, he said, "Theoretically, it's possible, but politically it's not. A country that has been bombed twice with nuclear weapons cannot be bombed a third time."

Yasha then cooked a bowl of ramen and filled it with char siu. He took it outside, intending to eat it himself.

Seeing this, the crow reached out with its chopsticks, stole a large mouthful of char siu from the demon's bowl, and ate it in one bite.

So Gu Ran also took the opportunity to grab a large chopstickful, intending to frame the crow.

The crow stared wide-eyed at Gu Ran.

At this moment, the Yaksha came out, looked down and found that half of the char siu in the bowl was gone. He immediately strangled the crow.

"Damn it, the wish, it was Gu Ran who ate it, he got a share too!" the crow cawed.

"How could Gu Jun be as gluttonous as you? It must be you!" Yaksha punched Crow twice.

While they were playing around, the shop door was pushed open again, and this time a man entered. He looked somewhat like Genji and was none other than Genji's daughter.

Yuan Zhinv entered wearing a white coat and, seeing so many people in the store, exclaimed with a smile, "It's so lively today!"

"Second Young Master."

"Second son."

The crow and the yaksha greeted the young girl.

Gu Ran waved to him.

"Brother, I want a bowl of ramen too." Yuan Zhinu smiled at Yuan Zhisheng and sat down next to Gu Ran.

Gu Ran picked up a cup, placed it next to him, and poured him a cup of sake: "Are you wearing a white coat to cosplay as a doctor?"

“I am a doctor now, but a psychologist.” Yuan Zhinu took a sip of sake, then picked up a dumpling from Gu Ran’s plate with her chopsticks and ate it.

At that moment, the sound of an iron wok sizzling came from the kitchen. It must be Erii making delicious Gomoku fried rice. The clattering and clanging sound was like someone tearing the house apart.

"Is your sister's Five-Eyed Fried Rice reliable?" Gu Ran asked Yuan Zhinu.

Genji said, "Eri loves to cook, and she can learn almost any dish in no time."

With her talent and quick wit, cooking is a piece of cake for her; it's just something she does on a whim.

Chapter 620 Recent Developments of the Yuan Family

For powerful hybrids, everything they do is just a passing fancy; the higher the bloodline, the more composed they are.

As mentioned before, dragons are actually quite comfortable creatures in human society because they possess power and authority.

With power and authority, anything can be done with ease.

This is true for both humans and dragons.

A moment later, Erii came out with a plate of steaming fried rice and placed it in front of Gu Ran. She looked at Gu Ran expectantly, clearly eager for him to taste it.

"Let me try it." Gu Ran took a bite. The fried rice had a strong wok hei (wok aroma) and was even fried to a golden-yellow color. The flavors of the vegetables and rice blended very well.

"It's delicious, it's really delicious." Gu Ran ate a few more bites.

"I want to try some too!" The crow took a spoon, shoveled a few mouthfuls, and then praised it highly.

"If you want to eat, I can make a few more plates." Erii seemed to have become interested.

"I like barbecue, why don't you grill some more octopus? I also like grilled fish." Gu Ran finished the last skewer of grilled octopus.

So Erii started grilling various seafood products in the charcoal grill behind the counter, enjoying it immensely, just like a child who likes to help their parents with chores.

"By the way, how effective are my mother's pills?" Gu Ran asked Yuan Zhisheng, remembering this.

Yuan Zhisheng replied, "The pills are very effective. My aunt helped improve the formula several times, and the last pill she made was the most effective. It can suppress the dragon blood well without the need for serum injections."

"That's good." Gu Ran finished the sake in his glass and then took out a beer from the refrigerator.

Barbecue tastes best when paired with beer.

Yuan Zhinü's ramen was ready at this time, and he took it and began to eat it in large mouthfuls.

"Eat slowly," Yuan Zhisheng asked, noticing his expression. "Didn't you eat lunch?"

Yuan Zhinv said, "There are quite a lot of customers today. They started queuing up in the morning and didn't leave at noon, so I couldn't leave to go eat."

"Are they all female guests?" Gu Ran sniffed Yuan Zhinu. "Their perfumes smell a bit mixed!"

Yuan Zhinv smiled helplessly.

Just like Kazama Ruri back then, he is still the most attractive to girls.

Gu Ran continued jokingly, "Does every girl who comes up to you say that you're their biggest worry?"

"Stop talking. I'm already considering changing careers. All the customers are infatuated with girls all day long. I can't even get treatment for the customers who are actually sick," Yuan Zhinv sighed.

“I have a good idea,” Gu Ran said with a smile. “It can help you screen out the real patients.”

"What method?" Yuan Zhinu asked curiously.

Everyone else looked at Gu Ran, appearing quite interested.

"Crow just plopped down right here, scaring away all the customers who were about to come in," Gu Ran laughed. "If you put Crow as a security guard or doorman in your psychology clinic, he'll definitely scare away a lot of people!"

"Hahaha, that's true! Crows are ugly and can scare away a lot of people!" Yaksha mocked his brother crow without any restraint.

"Damn, that's not fair, is it? But does Second Young Master really have that many girls coming to his clinic? Then I'm really interested." Crow chuckled.

"You could tell those girls you're ugly, but very gentle," Gu Ran laughed. "See if they like you."

"You know what, the reason my mother married my father was because of his fleeting tenderness!" Crow took a sip of wine and laughed. "When I offer my tenderness, there will be women who appreciate it."

Yaksha continued to mock Crow from the side: "You, you'll definitely be a bachelor your whole life, at most you'll have a few illegitimate children."

"Actually, it's better not to get married. At least I can escape when my enemies come knocking on my door," the crow said.

At this moment, Genjiro sat by the charcoal stove, helping Erii grill the food while also drinking a couple of glasses of wine.

The noodle shop hasn't been this lively in a long time. It's so nice to have everyone gathered together and chatting.

At this moment, the shop door was pushed open again, and Sakura Yabuki entered, carrying a large styrofoam box in one hand. After entering, she glanced around and found the place crowded and lively.

Yasha quickly helped Sakura carry a styrofoam box, which was filled with fresh seafood.

“There are two more boxes outside,” Sakura said.

So Yaksha and Crow very sensibly got up, went outside to the van, and carried two large boxes of seafood inside.

“I bought a bluefin tuna and a few Ise lobsters.” Sakura walked to the workbench and took out a cutting board and knife for making sashimi. “I’ll make some sashimi for everyone.”

Sakura originally planned to buy some octopus and shrimp, but Genji called to say that Gu Ran and Crow had arrived, so she bought more tuna and lobster to entertain the guests.

Yuan Zhisheng took out all the food that had been grilled on the charcoal grill and said to Ying, "Cut a few pieces of tuna belly and grill them. Gu Ran doesn't like raw food."

"it is good."

Sakura took a kitchen knife and put a bluefin tuna weighing over 90 pounds in the sink to clean it. After cleaning it, she placed it on the cutting board.

Fish this big usually requires two people to cut it open, and opening its back is very troublesome, which is something most women can't do.

But Sakura was clearly no ordinary woman. She picked up a kitchen knife, and the sharp blade easily sliced ​​open the fish's back, dissecting all the flesh and bones with ease.

She cut the fish with great precision, and in no time, the fish was cut open. A moment later, a piece of tuna belly covered with snowflakes was cut out and placed on the charcoal grill.

Genjiro also took a knife and used his knife skills to cut fish on the charcoal stove.

His knife skills became more precise. He made more than ten cuts in the air, and the blade cut the fish meat perfectly without hitting the grill on the charcoal stove.

As expected of the master of Japanese swordsmanship, apart from Uesugi Kotsu, few people can match Genji in terms of swordsmanship skills.

This fish is indeed plump and delicious. After grilling it lightly over charcoal for a while, oil drips out from the belly and releases an enticing aroma.

Sakura continued to butcher the fish with a kitchen knife, slicing the fish meat into thick pieces.

Tuna sashimi is best enjoyed in thick slices for maximum flavor.

This fish weighs ninety pounds, which is probably too much for so many people to finish, so Sakura only cut it in half. She covered the other half with plastic wrap and then put it on an ice pack for preservation.

Soon, plates of sashimi were served and distributed to everyone.

Erii stopped grilling fish at this point, picked up a plate and started eating, drinking sake with everyone.

When everyone raised their glasses, she would also raise hers and clink glasses with them.

And so the atmosphere became lively, and everyone started chatting about all sorts of random things.

"By the way, when are you two planning to get married?" Gu Ran looked at Genjiro and Sakura Yabuki and noticed that both of them were wearing rings.

The crow and the yaksha both looked at the boss and Sakura.

Sakura blushed slightly, a rare occurrence for her, and drank her wine to the side, avoiding everyone's gaze.
