Chapter 71 Tia
Putting all this aside, Xu Qing really wanted to eat black-bone chicken.

At present, the person who has the best chance and the most ability to successfully raise black-bone chickens is no one other than Ku Rou.

Xu Qing nodded and said, "Okay, I agree to this. But it's useless just for me to agree. The key still lies with Ku Rou."

Master Luo Tian said, "Don't worry, I will convince Ku Rou. Let's go and see him together. This kid must be scratching his head anxiously, not knowing what to do."

Just as Master Luo Tian expected, Ku Rou returned to the room in a daze, sat down on the stool, and stared at the window for a long time.

The energy and spirit that had been supporting him in his heart suddenly disappeared, and even his soul drifted away in a trance, leaving only a shell.

Should I obey Elder Shen and follow his command?

Or rebel against the Guangdong Chefs Association and pursue your own ideals?

Kurou's heart seemed to be pulled back and forth by two forces, and every beat was accompanied by a tearing pain.

In fact, Elder Shen is a very good person. He appreciates his abilities and hopes to provide him with a better platform so that he can climb higher and give full play to his abilities and shine more brightly.

Moreover, Elder Shen is the elder of the Guangdong Chefs Association. The Guangdong Chefs Association can be said to be a local tyrant among the chefs in Guangdong. Any chef who dares to disobey the Guangdong Chefs Association will not have a good end.

After he follows Elder Shen, he will surely enjoy endless wealth and glory, and power and fame will be within his reach.

This is a great thing that many people would love to have.

In the eyes of others, Ku Rou was too ungrateful to reject Elder Shen's kindness.

Ku Rou himself thought so too, so he could only keep delaying and did not dare to actually say no.

He was afraid that Elder Shen would be angry and punish him.

He was also afraid of embarrassing Elder Shen, who had been supporting him with good intentions and caring about him wholeheartedly, but he did not appreciate it at all.

This is really ungrateful.

Kurou sighed inwardly.

On the other side, however, is the black-bone chicken. Thinking of this legendary spiritual bird, Kurou's blood began to boil, encouraging him and urging him to embark on the journey as soon as possible to uncover the mysterious veil of this spiritual bird.

Kurou was excited at the thought of being able to raise the legendary spirit bird with his own hands, at the thought of being able to make this legendary spirit into a dish, to bring out all the deliciousness hidden in its flesh and blood, to let it come alive in people's mouths, and to let its name and its taste be passed down in the world for thousands of generations.

There was nothing else in the world that could attract him and entangle him like the black-bone chicken. This legendary spirit bird seemed to have descended from the void, swallowing up his entire body and soul, leaving no room for anything else in his heart except it.

On one side are power, fame and wealth, on the other side are one's own passion, soul and life. The importance of the two is clear at a glance.

However, Ku Rou is worried about her younger sister Tia. If she follows Elder Shen, her sister Tia will not have to suffer with him in the future and can live a happy and carefree life.

His sister is his only remaining relative. This weight is heavier than his life, and even his ideals have to give way to her.

Kurou sighed deeply, the balance in her heart gradually tipping over.

Suddenly, a pair of soft and warm hands covered his head, and Kurou was awakened from his deep thoughts, and saw the worried look on the face of his young sister in front of him.

"Brother, are you feeling unwell? You look so bad."

Ku Rou rubbed her face and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm in good health!"

As he said this, he picked up his sister and spun her around in circles, making her giggle.

"Look, I can go one more circle! One more circle!"

After circling four or five times, Ku Rou finally put her sister down. Looking at the happy smile on her sister's face, Ku Rou's heart also became extremely soft.

This is a rare treasure in his life. Kurou finally made up his mind and said softly: "Tia, when I make a lot of money, we can live in a big house and buy you a lot of beautiful clothes. The piece of floral cloth you liked before will definitely look great if it is made into clothes."

Tia nodded obediently.

Tia, who lost her parents and brother at a young age, is extremely sensitive.

She was keenly aware that although Kurou was saying something happy, the expression on his face was not happy.

It can’t be said that he was unhappy, he was just different from the brother she usually knew.

My brother always shines brightly whenever he talks about cooking or black-bone chicken, but now his light seems to dim, as if covered with a layer of dust.

Tia subconsciously reached out and patted him on the head, trying to wipe the dust off his body.

Kurou asked curiously, "What's wrong, Tia?"

Tia asked, "Brother, are you unhappy?"

These words made Kurou's heart tremble suddenly, and he subconsciously lowered his head, not wanting Tia to see his expression at the moment.

He said subconsciously: "Of course I am happy. Why would I be unhappy? When I think about living in a big house with Tia in the future..."

Tia suddenly said loudly: "I don't want a big house! I want my brother to be happy."

Ku Rou suddenly stopped talking. A hot current surged in his heart, blocking his throat tightly, and his eyes became blurred.

Kurou said hoarsely: "But I hope Tia can live well..."

"I'm fine now, and I'm happy every day! I don't need a big house or new clothes. As long as we are together, as long as I see you happy, I'm happy! If living in a big house makes you unhappy, I won't be happy either! Wherever you want to go, I'll go there!"

For Kurou, Tia is his only relative and his rare treasure in the world.

To Tia, the same is true for Kurou, who is her irreplaceable treasure.

Tia's words caused the dam built in Kurou's heart to collapse. The blocked emotions instantly surged out like a tide, and turned into tears, which kept falling.

Kurou lowered his head deeply, not wanting Tia to see the tears welling up in his eyes. He tried to keep his tone calm and said, "But, we will have a hard time..."

"It's ok."

"They will live frugally, live in cramped rooms, and ..."

"It's ok."

As Tia kept saying "It's okay", Kurou could no longer speak and only tears kept flowing.

The suppressed beliefs in his heart gradually became clear.

Master Luo Tian's question echoed in my ears again.

Are you determined to fight against the Guangdong Chefs Association?

As long as he is with Tia, as long as Tia supports him, he has nothing to fear!
Xu Qing and Master Luo Tian stood outside the door and watched this heartwarming scene, knowing that Ku Rou's mind was firm.

Xu Qing smiled and said, "It seems that there is no need for the master to come forward."

Master Luo Tian sighed: "He has a good sister!"

"Yeah, the best sister in the world."
