A winner in life at Tōtsuki academy

Chapter 3: CHAPTER 3: Teasing Inui



Damian continued talking to Inui, and Inui also became very excited talking.

"Kouhai, how many years have you been studying cooking? Tōtsuki is a very strict school, they don't care about your background or wealth."

"I've been studying for about ten years..."

"Oh! That's cool! I believe you will have absolutely no problems with the transfer exam. I hope you can live to do the dorm training."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because I can become a judge, but don't worry, Kouhai, if you find me, I'll relax the difficulty a little!"

Damian smiled and said, "I don't think it's necessary. If I agree, you'll look down on me, senpai."

"Wow, you're surprisingly manly! I'll tell you that! I'll have your back in the future!"

Damian was stunned for a moment and then said warmly, "Okay, then thank you, senpai."

"It's okay, oh, I forgot..."

Damian was stunned for a moment, and before he could speak, he saw Inui take out a notebook from a small bag next to her, open the tabletop, lower her head, and write something down.

Damian naturally had no interest in spying on other people's privacy, so he lowered his head and continued to watch his movie. Thanks to Inui, the phone saved a lot of power, and it was estimated that the power bank would not be used.

The first hour was very peaceful, and after a long while, Damian heard a voice whispering next to him.

"Um... If I remove the dried rosemary, it won't have that feeling, but how can I add the lily bud..."

Damian was stunned for a moment, and after struggling for a while, he said softly, "Senpai, are you studying any recipes?"

"Yes, I am modifying a new recipe. During this period, I thought of several new dishes. I thought of modifying a French recipe."

"What is it?"

"'Takoyaki', have you ever eaten this? She's..."

Damian nodded and said, "Not only have I already eaten it, I've also prepared it a few times."

"Eh?! So you're amazing."

Damian said suspiciously, "You said Lily Root before. Are you planning to add Lily Root to the recipe?"

"Uh...yeah."

Inui was also a little strange but said it anyway. Damian thought for a while and then said softly, "Senpai, if you don't mind, can you tell me where you plan to use the lily root?"

"I plan to add it to the squid, so I don't know how to combine it to make it more amazing... Kouhai, do you have any solutions?"

After Inui asked, she regretted it. If she didn't know, how could her kouhai know?

Inui was about to speak when Damian said in a warm voice, "Well, Senpai, you can divide the lily root into two parts, the juice and the lily root puree."

"Two parts? Quickly speak!"

"Lily root juice can be used as a sauce base, this can help improve the flavor."

"So with the lily root puree, you can add it to shrimp or crab meat, pork, etc."

"Add that... Wow! Junior! You belong! You're too good! That's a genius idea!"

Damian said warmly, "Not only that, but the base of the sauce is Orris root juice, so let's say you can add a little more."

"Add what?"

"For example... Lemongrass is a good choice. If you have to say... It's also good to add a little coconut milk, but in that case, it's best served with a grapefruit chili, which can make the diners choose themselves."

Inui looked at Damian with shining eyes, this Kouhai is very smart!

"Kouhai! You're very good! You're very imaginative and creative! Here, look at this recipe."

Damian froze for a moment and said, "Senpai, private recipes are considered personal privacy, I..."

"Hey! Alright, let's talk about it, let's consider this recipe to be studied together!"

"Okay... sorry."

Damian is not a hypocrite, the two started talking about the recipe. Damian also talks about some improvement guidance from time to time.

Inui is becoming more and more amazed by Damian's knowledge.

"Kouhai... Are you going to become a student or a teacher? Your cooking skills are very good!"

"It's okay, I just asked about a little more thoughtful cooking."

Inui puffed out his cheeks, looked at Damian resentfully, and said, "Disobedient Kouhais will be punished!"

"Um?"

"Humph! But your cooking skills are absolutely good. Seriously, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to adapt to Tōtsuki's difficulty! I was worrying for nothing!"

Damian said warmly, "Thank you, for your concern, Senpai."

"It's okay, you'll be popular in Tōtsuki!"

"Really? This gives me peace of mind."

"Are you nervous? Don't worry, with your skills and such a pretty appearance, you will be very popular, if you were in the same class as me when I studied at Totsuki, I would go after you!"

Damian was stunned for a moment, seeing the playfulness in Inui's eyes and knowing he was planning to play a prank, she probably wanted to see how nervous he would get.

But Damian naturally wouldn't panic. In general, most men who can blush and still be Tsundere are male protagonists from those damn Rom-Coms, and they're still pretty incompetent.

[A/N: I stopped watching Rom-Coms, most of them have a horrible ending, like, if the author doesn't intend for the protagonist to be with more than one girl why the hell does he make 4, 5 or 6 girls fall in love with the protagonist? An example, despite not being a Rom-Com is Sword Art Online, every season one or two more girls are falling in love with Kirito.]

Damian twitched the corner of his mouth and said softly, "Senpai, it's not too late for you to chase me."

"Eh?!"

Inui was completely stunned. She didn't even know what to say!

"This... this... Kouhai I already graduated a long time ago."

"I remember... But as long as there is love, age is not a problem."

"Eh?!"

Inui looked at Damian with a flushed face. After thinking for a while, she immediately said, "You have to go to school, and I have to take care of a restaurant! Isn't this the same as a long-distance relationship?"

"As long as there is affection at a distance, it's not a problem, and won't it all be in Tokyo?"

"This... this... that... this... um... hum! I'm talking about you and me, I might be able to chase you, but no, so learn kouhai, if you like me, you must chase me!"

Inui breathed a sigh of relief. Then he would be safe, but in the next moment, he heard Damian say in a playful voice, "Eh? So everything is okay?"

"Huh?! You... you... you..."
