Chapter 160 (1/2)

160. The secret to thrive

”…the portion is too big…” (Mitsuha)

The portion of the porridge is large.

Probably, Rudina, who couldn't eat to her full stomach when she was in the orphanage, thought that everyone wanted to eat this much. Indeed, in the Venn diagram in the menu, there's a part where the [Large Portion], [Low Priced], and [Healthy] parts are overlapping.

…tte, no, the porridge itself may be relatively healthy, but I wonder if it still healthy if the portion is this large…

Anyway, let's grab the spoon and have a taste of it. Un, it tasted better than expected… and it doesn't seem that much money is spent on material costs. In this case, it can certainly be offered at a low price. You thought it well, nice Rudina!

Well, I guess she uses the recipes that she learned from the orphanage and added a few more ingredients, maybe…

After enjoyed the meal, then I pay normally.

”it was delicious. looks like you're working hard!” (Mitsuha)

It seemed that Silua's cheeks were slightly twitching when I said that while receiving the change.

Then, surprised voices were heard from the customers' tables.

”Oh, Silua is smiling! Awesome, this is the second time I see!” (Customer A)

”It's the first for me… tte, you did well to recognize that it's her smile…” (Customer B)

How surprising!

The fact that her cramping cheeks are her smile, the fact that the customers know it, and the fact that Silua rarely smiles, everything!

I thought I was her being nervous because she's in front of her employer, to think that it was her usual…

When I turned my head, I saw Rudina behind the counter. She finished cooking at the back, next is the turn to cook at the counter area.

Rudina smiled at me and gently bowed. Un, she's properly showing hospitality…

”Amazing! Rudina is heartfully smiling, not the forced one!!” (Customer C)

Eeeeeh!? Rudina's usual smile was acting!? And how in the world that customer know about this!?

…well, whatever, let's take the positive side that [she has fans]. Wait, don't tell me, he's a stalker?

Alright, let's withdraw!
