FULL NOVELXO Chapter 148 - I No Longer Doubt the System
This item was different from the Body-stretching Pill; the latter came with instructions, while this had none whatsoever.
Su Ming paused, blinking thoughtfully, before deciding not to dwell on it any longer.
He swung his sickle, harvesting a large swath of fennel, then carried it over to a nearby faucet for a thorough rinse.
In the kitchen, he blanched the fennel in boiling water, chopped it into bite-sized pieces, and wrung out the excess moisture.
Next, he found a piece of pork in the kitchen.
Everything was ready, but then Su Ming froze.
He was out of dumpling wrappers!
With no other choice, Su Ming headed to the garage and drove off to the market.
Today, Su Ming was behind the wheel of a Hennessy Venom GT.
This wasn't just any sports car; it was a globally limited edition worth over a hundred million, with only ten in existence.
The engine's roar was music to the ears, a far cry from mere noise.
The car's hefty price tag was common knowledge, prompting countless onlookers to turn their heads. It stood alone, with no other vehicles in sight.
If they knew Su Ming was driving this car just to buy dumpling wrappers, they'd be gobsmacked.
Even the designer of the Hennessy Venom GT probably never envisioned such a scenario.
But for Su Ming, it was of no consequence.
The car was his to use as he pleased.
Still, Su Ming was law-abiding; he wouldn't use the car for hauling goods.
He parked at the market entrance, an old hand at vegetable shopping.
The vendor quickly packed his purchase, announcing, “That'll be 58 yuan.”
Su Ming paid with his phone and left the market, goods in hand.
The vendor's eyes then caught a glimpse of a vehicle.
Upon closer inspection, a wild sports car was parked not too far off.
“Hennessy Venom GT!”
The young owner, in his thirties and a car enthusiast, couldn't resist the urge to snap a photo. With only ten of these cars worldwide and seemingly none yet in China, it was a rare opportunity.
It wasn't that people in China couldn't afford it; rather, hefty tariffs made importation a challenge, and the international demand was simply overwhelming.
Just as the boss was about to join the young man for a photo, he realized the guy had slipped into the car and started the engine.
The boss was left speechless.
“You're joking, right? You're a billionaire and you're haggling over prices at the farmers' market?”
But Su Ming was oblivious to the commotion.
He vanished in the blink of an eye.
Back at home, Su Ming expertly prepared a pot of dumplings.
He dropped them into boiling water.
There are many techniques for cooking dumplings, but Su Ming's go-to method was the one his mother always used.
Once the dumplings bobbed to the surface, they were about 80% done.
He then added a splash of cold water and waited for the boil to return. After the second boil, he added another splash of cold water and waited for a third boil. After that, the dumplings were perfectly cooked.
The cold water trick not only lowered the temperature, causing the dumpling skins to contract and become delightfully chewy, but it also left the filling untouched.
Su Ming was eager to feel the effects of the dumplings on his body.
The dumplings were ready in no time. Su Ming scooped out a bowlful and whipped up some garlic sauce.
He hastily popped a dumpling into his mouth.
After swallowing, he was perplexed. Aside from the scalding heat, he felt nothing.
He blinked and tried another.
Still nothing.
One more try!
Eventually, Su Ming polished off the entire bowl. His belly was full, yet he felt no different.
What was going on?
Could the System have glitched this time?
Then, Su Ming froze.
A fiery warmth surged in his stomach, spreading to his lower abdomen and beyond.
Su Ming was astounded!
The System was functioning perfectly!
And the effect? It was something countless men could only dream of!
If a man were standing in the middle of the street,
and a crowd claimed he wasn't handsome,
I'd be that man and take it in stride because, truthfully, I'm not handsome.
If they labeled him poor,
I'd be that man and shrug it off. Sure, I'm poor now, but I can make money with my own two hands.
But if they said your lovemaking lasted only a brief moment…
I assure you, any man would either seethe with rage or flee in sheer embarrassment.
The Barbarian King's ultimate move lasts at least 6 seconds, and you're done in 3?
Who could stand for that?
The Body-stretching Pill works wonders for healing and fortifying muscles and bones.
Its effects might be straightforward, but they're the stuff of countless men's dreams.
With such a marvel, you'd be an unstoppable force in the realm of romance!
Su Ming couldn't help but burst into laughter.
From that moment on, Su Ming could never doubt the System again—it was the most formidable force in the world!
How could anything from the System be anything less than stellar?
Absolutely out of the question!
And Su Ming believed that even if you didn't wrap fennel into dumplings but simply ate it fresh from the earth, its potency wouldn't diminish. contemporary romance
If he mastered the art of extraction and condensed the fennel into a single pill…
Enough said.
Should word of fennel's benefits get out, he'd likely have crowds flocking to his doorstep.
