-----------------------

Chef Saiba had already started serving the dishes, but Julian still had not returned.

Maylene stood up.

"I’ll go take a look."

Julian just happened to walk out from the kitchen.

"Sorry. There were quite a lot of things that needed help. These dishes you ordered were all made from ingredients I helped prepare."

"Cassia, this Kalos-style meat ragout you ordered was made by me personally. I didn’t expect you to like dishes with this kind of flavour too. Hurry and taste how my cooking is."

Cynthia smiled and said, "I ate it once before, and the taste left a deep impression on me. I didn’t expect Chef Saiba’s menu to have this dish too."

Cynthia scooped up a spoonful. The sensation on entry was numbing, spicy, savoury, fragrant, and hot.

"Delicious!"

Julian smiled and served Cassia rice.

"A sauce like this has to be eaten with rice."

Indeed, the flavour immediately became richer and more layered.

Cynthia suddenly felt that, just like Chef Saiba and his wife, having a boyfriend like Julian who could make her signature cuisines from around the world every day seemed rather nice.

Aside from Cynthia, both Maylene and Caitlin felt the meal was too spicy.

"Tomorrow, we’re going on an outing. I heard a golden Magikarp appeared in the rivers of Verdant Cloud Mountain, so I specially bought fishing rods. Let’s see whose luck is better."

Caitlin’s eyes lit up.

"Fishing for golden Magikarp? That sounds interesting!"

Originally, she had thought the greatest amusement on this trip would be Cynthia and Julian’s love story.

She had not expected this outing to actually have real content.

It was not just ordinary sightseeing.

Because of Julian’s authentic Kalos dish, Cynthia ate an extra bowl of rice.

Julian had brought a stone down on his own foot.

After filling up on dinner, where would she have the appetite to eat ice cream?

Only Maylene rubbed her stomach.

Caitlin had the smallest appetite. After tasting one or two bites of each dish, she could not eat any more, and she watched in shock as Maylene swept away all the remaining food.

Caitlin was greatly puzzled.

"Don’t you feel stuffed after eating so much?"

Maylene shook her head.

"I’m not full yet, so how would I feel stuffed?"

Caitlin’s eyes widened.

"That huge bowl of rice was meant for a whole table. You ate three bowls by yourself, and you’re telling me you’re still not full?"

Maylene sighed.

"Ever since Julian taught me that extreme fist thing, I feel like I’ve become even better at eating."

Julian shook his head helplessly.

"Bajiquan! Seriously, your boxing is clearly so good, so why can’t you remember the name?"

Maylene smiled foolishly.

"I learned it by following Master Bear in the scroll. All that stuff you explained, I definitely remembered it, but after I sleep, I forget it again."

Caitlin’s eyes lit up.

"Can you let me see this Bajiquan you’re talking about?"

Julian nodded.

"When we get back to the Gym, I’ll demonstrate it for you."

Chef Saiba walked out of the kitchen carrying an insulated box.

"Take this back. Eat it tomorrow during your outing."

Maylene’s eyes shone.

"No need to wait until tomorrow. We can eat it now."

Julian picked up the box.

"We’ll talk when we get home."

Chef Saiba took out a large bag of pulled-pork buns and handed it to Maylene.

"I knew you weren’t full. This is for you. It’s what was left from the morning."

"Thank you, Uncle!"

Maylene grabbed the buns, which gave off a rich aroma, and stuffed it into her mouth.

Clearly, Caitlin could not eat much herself, but watching Maylene eat made her feel like her own appetite had improved quite a bit.

After driving back to Veilstone Gym, Julian put away the insulated box, and the four went to the training field.

Julian and Maylene entered the centre of the field and assumed Bajiquan stances.

Julian beckoned, and Maylene took the initiative to attack.

Although Julian had a dantian now and true qi circulating through his body, Maylene’s monstrous strength was still not easy for him to handle.

Caitlin kept clapping.

"Good!"

She secretly nudged Cynthia with her elbow.

"This friend of yours really is handsome. He can fight too. Does he make your heart flutter?"

Cynthia nudged her back with an elbow.

"Do you want to die?"

To say her heart had not been moved would a lie.

But calling it love still felt a little too soon.

After going through a set with Maylene, Julian felt his hands were slightly numb.

After learning Bajiquan, Maylene had shown signs of evolving into Single Strike Style Maylene.

She was progressing even faster than him, someone who had been Urshifu and possessed Kubfu’s dantian!

This girl Maylene was not especially outstanding at training Pokémon.

But her own martial arts talent truly deserved to be called prodigious.

"That’s enough."

Julian turned to Cynthia and Caitlin.

"Cassia, Kale, do you want to try Bajiquan’s breathing method? The breathing method can speed up digestion, so you won’t have to worry about gaining weight from eating too many desserts."

Caitlin nodded repeatedly.

"I want to learn! I want to learn! Maylene, you teach me. Sister, you go learn from Julian."

Caitlin gave Julian a look.

I’ve created the opportunity for you. Grasp it properly

Julian nodded and stepped forward to explain the breathing method to Cassia.

Following Julian’s guidance, Cynthia tried following the breathing pattern and indeed felt a warm current flowing through her body.

Her stomach, which had been filled to the brim, felt far lighter.

A thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

After exercising, the ice cream Julian had carefully made finally had its use.

Julian took the exquisitely shaped ice cream out from the freezer.

"Hurry and try it. This is the secret recipe I learned from Uncle Saiba."

Cynthia did not know whether to laugh or cry.

So enthusiastically promoting the breathing method had actually been for the sake of letting her eat ice cream.

Indeed, after practising the breathing method, Cynthia felt no guilt about eating ice cream again.

With one spoonful, the colourful ice cream looked extremely beautiful.

When she placed it in her mouth, a complex and layered flavour spread through her mouth.

"This is the first time I’ve eaten this kind of ice cream. Eating ice cream like this means I’ll never have to struggle over which flavour to choose again."

Julian smiled and said, "Since you like it, I’ll make more for you."

Cynthia asked, "You spent that long in the kitchen just to make this ice cream?"

Julian nodded.

"Yes."

After tasting it, Caitlin smiled and said, "It really is delicious. Julian, are you willing to make ice cream for my sister for the rest of your life?"

Julian answered impatiently, "Of course I’m willing!"

"Kale!"

Cynthia turned her head.

"Julian, don’t mind her. She just likes talking nonsense."

Julian revealed a faint smile, but his eyes dimmed slightly.

"It’s fine."

Noticing Julian’s expression, Cynthia’s heart tightened too.

Cynthia hurriedly pulled Caitlin.

"It’s getting late. We should go back to the hotel."

Julian followed.

"I’ll take you."

The three of them walked all the way to the hotel entrance, silent the whole way.

Caitlin knew that she had stoked the fire a little too much just now and hoped this relationship would not burn.

Cynthia took a deep breath and told Caitlin to go in first.

Caitlin immediately obediently entered the hotel.

Cynthia looked at Julian.

"The ice cream was delicious. Are you willing to make it for me again in the future?"

Julian could barely hide his excitement.

"I’m willing!"

Cynthia smiled.

"All right. You should go back too."

After Cynthia entered the hotel, Julian happily pumped his fists nonstop.

He knew it. Kale’s appearance would definitely push his relationship with Cassia further.

For a reserved girl like Cassia to say what she had just said, what it represented was obvious enough!

Julian walked with wind beneath his feet, unable to hide the joy in his heart. (A/N: Finally! My man Julian!)
