The implication was that some people ignore the compatibility of foods and indulge in eating whatever they find delicious.
Khloe, known for being a picky eater, almost couldn't help but curse, "You!"
Ariana smirked and stopped mocking any further, but gave a way out, saying, "In fact, it's also the fault of the Golden Cook for not meeting the requirements and ignoring these food incompatibilities. This shows how inadequate their ability really is."
Aster intervened, "Although that's the case, the 'Golden Cook' is one of the best in the country... Besides, the food on the table is already prepared. Are we supposed to throw it away and make everyone wait again?"
“Rip!”
At that moment, the Old Mr. Stone, pointedly tore up the project proposal in his hands and threw it on the floor, scoffing, "Thinking you're clever and young yet insolent, not knowing how to respect your elders!"
Old Mr. Stone's rejection of Ariana's suggestions made some people in the room chuckle. However, Ariana, on the other hand, remained composed.
She smirked and said, "Grandpa, I'm not playing any clever games. Moreover, to improve everyone's meals, I have prepared this."
As she spoke, she said to the maid at the door, "Let them in!"
The whole family was confused by Ariana's actions. Then, they saw chefs from Imperial Delights, each holding an exquisite dish, filing in, while the servants removed the previously prepared food from the table.
Aster was shocked by the sight, "Is this Imperial Delights?"
Lambert furrowed his brows, "Imperial Delights doesn't seem to do outside catering service."
Imperial Delights was a renowned chain restaurant. Rumor has it that the owner of Imperial Delights was the imperial cook of the last emperor. Since the restaurant was opened, Imperial Delights's cuisine has been highly praised by all.
The only regret was that Imperial Delights was always bustling with customers. Reservations had to be made at least half a month in advance. It doesn't matter if you were a high-ranking official or a wealthy person, everyone was treated equally. Therefore, dining there wasn't an impromptu decision.
The fact that Ariana was able to get Imperial Delights on board was something even Lambert hadn't anticipated.
She faced everyone's surprise with a calm expression and spoke lightly, "All these dishes are carefully prepared, they were once part of the imperial diet with undoubted nutritional value."
Jolene picked up her chopsticks and took a bite of the seafood. She was amazed by the delicious taste and said "It's no wonder Imperial Delights is the best. I usually don't like seafood with its fishy smell, but unexpectedly, Imperial Delights made it so tasty."
Ariana smiled, "If Mom likes it, we can have Imperial Delights deliver it daily."
"It's easier said than done. It's already difficult for Imperial Delights to deliver once, you want them to deliver every day?" Aster couldn't help but scoff at her words.
Ariana said in an amused tone, "Aunt, if I can't make it happen, naturally, I wouldn't have said it."
At this time, Old Mr. Stone, gripping his cane, suddenly slammed it on the ground.
"Enough, enough of this arguing! It's just annoying to listen!"
He then stood and ascended the stairs, leaving everyone stunned.
Seeing Old Mr. Stone storming off because of Ariana, everyone felt happy, yet Ariana remained calm.
It wasn't surprising for Old Mr. Stone to be angry and storm off after she publicly challenged his authority.
"Dad..."
Jolene saw Old Mr. Stone in such a state and was a bit worried.
