The next morning, Mag woke up early as usual to prepare the ingredients for the day. He woke Amy up at 7am, and helped her put on her little magician robes. She had a lesson with Urien today.

Amy chewed on some chicken as she asked, “Father, is our restaurant going to return to the food competition rankings board today?”

“Well... I’m not sure of that myself. It’s rather unlikely, though.” Mag shook his head. He had missed his opportunity to bring up the issue with Michael the day before, and he couldn’t be bothered to make a trip to the city lord’s castle. Perhaps Warren would suddenly rediscover his conscience after tasting his food and reinstate Mamy Restaurant today.

Of course, Mag wasn’t very optimistic about that. He had ascended to a very high position in his past life, and from that vantage point, he had seen many things. He knew that in Warren’s position, there were many things that were already outside of his control. The power of wealth was fuelling the Catering Association, but it had also wrested control from his hands.

It could be said that without a powerful third party’s interference, whether Mamy Restaurant was reinstated onto the rankings board or not would be decided by the Chamber of Commerce.

Mag didn’t even have to think to know the decision that the Chamber of Commerce would arrive at. From Goodenia to Devoe, then to all of the restaurants that were crushed by Mamy Restaurant on the rankings board, none of them wanted to see Mamy Restaurant rise again. Unless the president of the Chamber of Commerce suddenly lost his mind, there was no way that Mamy Restaurant would be reinstated onto the rankings board.

“They’re such bad people! I’m so angry!” Amy grumbled as she chewed on a large mouthful of rice. “I’m so angry that I want to have another bowl of rice!”

“If you still want to have tofu pudding later, then you can only have one bowl of rice. You can’t eat too much in the morning.” Mag couldn’t help but burst into laughter at the sight of Amy’s adorable expression, but he still turned down her request.

“Alright... Then I want to have two bowls of tofu pudding: one sweet and one savory.” After a brief period of disappointment, Amy quickly extended two fingers. She contemplated momentarily before her eyes lit up, and she said, “By the way, Father, wouldn’t it be super delicious if you poured the soup for spicy grilled fish onto tofu pudding?”

“Spicy tofu pudding?” Mag raised his eyebrows, and appraised Amy with a hint of surprise on his face. Children really did have the best imagination.

In his past life, Mag had tasted spicy tofu pudding in Sichuan, but he still preferred savory tofu pudding. Furthermore, the system had only given him two tofu pudding flavor options. Even though there were empty slots reserved for other flavors, no recipe had been given to him for those slots, and he was wary of doing too much experimentation on his own.

“Exactly! I really want to taste that spicy tofu pudding; I think it would definitely be very delicious!” Amy nodded her little head with an expectant look in her eyes.

“Alright, I’ll look into it when I find some time.” Mag nodded with a smile. His little foodie daughter was getting more and more difficult to satisfy. She was already learning to think outside the box and invent her own dishes.

“I’m sure Father will be able to make a super delicious spicy tofu pudding, just like the super delicious rainbow fish.” Amy nodded with elation as she ate, and she began to tell Mag about the interesting things that had happened at school.

After finishing her breakfast, Amy asked, “Father, I’ve already told Daphne and Ignatsu that they can come over this weekend. Can you cook your delicious grilled fish for them?”

“Of course. What about Little Jessica?” Mag nodded as he reminded Amy about the clever little loli from the last time.

“I haven’t seen Jessica in quite a few days. Her mother ate Father’s braised chicken already, so she’s definitely all better now. If she could help her mother at home, then she wouldn’t have to come out to beg anymore.” Amy shook her head with a hint of disappointment at not being able to see her friend, but it was quite apparent that she was still quite happy for Jessica.

“Then let’s go to their house, and invite them to our restaurant with your other friends,” Mag suggested with a smile. He could tell that Amy really missed Jessica, and he was also a little concerned about the two, so he decided that it would be best to pay them a visit.

“That’s a great idea! Father is the best!” Amy nodded with a joyful expression.

Mag patted Amy’s little head with a smile. His mood would always be lifted by the sight of her smile.

Not long after that, Yabemiya and Sally also arrived at the restaurant. Mag had a rough idea of what had happened as soon as he saw Yabemiya’s gloomy expression. Everything was good about her aside from her inability to hide her emotions. He only had to look at her face to be able to read her like an open book.

“Boss, our Mamy Restaurant didn’t make it onto the rankings board again, but don’t be sad; I’m sure the Catering Association will provide us with an explanation.” Yabemiya was offering words of consolation to Mag, but tears began to well up in her eyes as she spoke, and she appeared to be the one that had to be consoled.

Mag was feeling a little dejected, but he was quite amused at the sight of her pitiable display. He had never seen someone console others in such a unique manner. He hurriedly said, “I’m fine, Miya. You shouldn’t be too sad, either. It doesn’t matter if we make it onto the rankings board or not; we have so many customers already anyway, so it makes no difference.”

“But... But we worked so hard, and gave out so many tickets. All of our customers gave us five-star ratings, and everyone voted so diligently. How could they just remove us from the rankings with no explanation? That’s so unfair.” Miya pouted as tears swam in her eyes. She had witnessed Mamy Restaurant’s steady rise up the rankings board, and was very emotionally invested. As such, the removal of their restaurant from the rankings dealt her a heavy blow.

“Don’t be said, Big Sister Miya. When I become powerful, I’ll place our restaurant at the highest position on the rankings board.” Amy latched onto Yabemiya’s finger with her little hand as a gesture of consolation.

Yabemiya nodded, and she seemed to have also realized that she had let her emotions get the better of herself. Mag should have been the most distraught one, but he was being forced to console her. With that in mind, she hurriedly wiped away her tears, and took a deep breath to calm herself down.

“Do we still keep casting votes today, then?” Sally was also in a foul mood, but she was a lot calmer than Yabemiya was.

“No need. If this is what the rankings board has become, then I don’t even want our restaurant to be on it.” Mag shook his head with a hint of mockery on his face. There was no point in striving for a rank in such a fraudulent food competition.

A young woman in a black dress stood before Jeffree Moreton with a resolute expression on her face, and announced, “Grandfather, I want to become heir to the Moreton Family.”
