Chapter 159: A Bad Woman
"Boss, this thing looks interesting. Tell me, what you're looking forward to doing with this machine?" Marvin asked. The control console leaning on the wall was on pause because he stopped working with it while talking with Zhang Qin Feng.
"This is a food processor. The primary purpose of this machine is to work on the protein mixture before shaping them according to the mold. What I want you to do is maintain the antiquity but upgrade everything else."
"If this machine can make a gelatine cake with one flavor, then upgrade it until it can create cakes from one to five different flavors. If it could work with protein paste to create something with the texture of meat, then make it until it can produce a steak from the same paste." Zhang Qin Feng speaks out all his outrageous demands to Marvin.
It was not because he's trying to make it difficult for Marvin but because he's confident that Marvin can deliver his request.
"Boss… What is a steak? Is that something like that luncheon meat?" he asked.
Hearing his innocent question made Zhang Qin Feng had the urge to laugh at him. But when he remembered this post-apocalypse no longer had any surviving animals, Zhang Qin Feng realized that he was the fool right here.
"Yes. When there's a chance, I'll get some for everyone to have a taste. They're extraordinary in both flavor and texture." Zhang Qin Feng smiled. He did not realize that Liam caught wind of what he said.
"Boss, may I interrupt?" Liam asked with his head peeked through the gap.
"Ah, you're here? Come in. This machine seems to found someone that capable of using it efficiently." Zhang Qin Feng waved his hand at Liam to get him inside the workshop.
"I… I don't think I know how to operate this machinery, boss." Liam said. He took a quick look at the interface but found it too complicated.
"That's why I have Marvin here adjusting and remodeling it. By simplifying it, this machine is a food processor. I want you to come up with a plant protein capable of competing in terms of the texture and flavor of the meat."
"As for the samples, you'll have them by the next day morning." Zhang Qin Feng said.
"Ohh…" the two nodded as they look at the machinery. Zhang Qin Feng has such high hope for it.
"What do you think about the food I gave you earlier? If I gave you the same ingredient to work with, are you confident of replicating and making the same thing out using the kitchen equipment we have?" Zhang Qin Feng asked.
"The flavor might be complicated for me to replicate in a single try, but the texture and everything else is possible," Liam confidently answered.
"Good. Then I'll start bringing in more raw ingredients next time. I'll be relying on you to keep track of the food we're eating, how to make them, creating new food, and etcetera. Do you think you can do it?" Zhang Qin Feng asked.
"Yes, Boss. Please have confidence in me. As long it's food, I'm confident I can deliver." Liam answered.
"Very well. You'll be responsible because most of us can't cook anyway. Introduce yourself to Satella when you're back. Just let her know what task I entrusted to you." Zhang Qin Feng said.
Looking at the time on his smartphone, it was about time he had to return to the modern world to fulfill what he promised with Jun Minji.
Without further ado, Zhang Qin Feng went straight to the penthouse and instructed Stein to initiates the process to return to the modern world.
The curtain of light blinded his sight as it returned to the hotel's room. It took ten or so seconds for the smartphone to connect to this world's communication signal. A few notifications quickly pop up on his screen when the device is ready to use.
*Ding!*

'Look's like the few hours I was gone were quite busy. Maybe it will get worst when I have more on my plate.' Zhang Qin Feng changed back into a suit before leaving the hotel room.
The lobby seems to be crowded with people as they're gathering around someone. Trying to think if that was who he thinks it is, Zhang Qin Feng forced his way through the group of people until he was at the frontmost position.
"You! Bad guy! Why are you only here now?" Jun Minji was about to have tears rolling down her cheek. What happened made Zhang Qin Feng feeling confused as it was supposed to be a regular date between them.
Holding her wrist and pulling her closer to his side, Zhang Qin Feng grabbed one of the caps that belonged to a Jun Minji fan and forced their way out from the "human wall." The two struggled for a while, but by the time they finally out from the crazy fans of Jun Minji, Zhang Qin Feng carried her like a princess and made their escape.
"Ahh! My skirt!" Jun Minji was shouting as she worried she would get exposed if Zhang Qin Feng were to carry her and run like this. She then realized it was for naught because the running speed of Zhang Qin Feng was ridiculous.
"Wow… You really can run, huh?" Jun Minji was hugging Zhang Qin Feng's neck with both arms.
"Huh - Huh… Not as good as you in getting people's attention. How can it turn out to be like that? What happened in the lobby? And where are your guards?" Zhang Qin Feng asked. He's puzzled because to someone as influential as her; it was impossible to see her around without her guards.
"I… I sneaked out of my filming studio. I think they're still thinking that I'm sleeping in the changing room." Jun Minji answered with a naughty expression.
"Oh my… I pity those guys." Zhang Qin Feng shook his head.
"Why?" Jun Minji tightened her arm around Zhang Qin Feng's neck.
"They'll lose the job once what happened earlier went into the social media. You're a bad woman, Jun Minji." Zhang Qin Feng said to her.
