Chapter 353: 0353 Could it be that Ellen did it for her_1

Melissa Chan glanced at Lucy Wood with a meaningful look.

Lucy Wood felt offended. "What are you looking at? I can’t do it!"

Righteously indignant!

Melissa Chan was actually quite interested in this robot, and since Ellen Young was from a different world, one she wasn’t part of, she naturally engaged in more conversation with Lucy Wood, who had brought her along.

Now, as Ellen was busy in the kitchen, Melissa, being a guest and not knowing about these things, obviously didn’t go to cause trouble and was instead chatting with Lucy Wood outside. She expressed some wonder, "Do you usually ask Ellen about her work as an academician?"

Lucy Wood: "Not really, that touches upon my areas of ignorance. The process would also severely insult my IQ, and I prefer not to humiliate myself."

It was because among the netizens’ light-hearted talk, she had learned how to self-deprecate.

As soon as she said this, the barrage of comments confirmed it: [233333333333333333][Lucy, we’re all the same, don’t be scared, we’re here with you!]

Indeed, Melissa was so amused by this declaration that she couldn’t stop laughing, then uncontrollably said, "Lucy, I really admire your sister so much."

Lucy Wood’s eyes revealed complicated emotions, "Who doesn’t admire her?"

Who doesn’t envy and covet that?

Even she herself would sometimes lament, if only she could have been given a bit, just a bit more of the surplus IQ that Ellen had!

Then she wouldn’t have had such a miserable time in the Wood Family!

The barrage of comments were also filled with lament.

[To be honest, if the country hadn’t acknowledged it, I would never believe that Ellen, at such a young age, could be so incredibly accomplished.]

[High IQ is understandable, and even getting into Hadton for advanced studies at age nine isn’t something to shock the world, but her achievements are just too impressive. A lot of geniuses start out ahead of the whole world, and most fade into obscurity afterwards.]

[Sometimes being a genius isn’t as easy as we imagine, because many geniuses face various hardships, pressure, personality issues, and many fall into extremes of knowledge. Ellen is exceptionally rare indeed.]

[A bunch of IQ sub-100 people in the barrage talking about the pressures of genius.]

[The guy calling my IQ sub-100 in the barrage, remember this: I feel deeply personally attacked, I’m going straight to court to sue you.]

Melissa Chan was discussing Ellen with Lucy Wood, while the person at the center of their conversation was entirely focused on the braised duck in the pot.

When making braised duck, of course one needs to add beer. This was a dish that Ellen’s grandfather had made when she was younger, but he hardly ever made it and wouldn’t let Ellen eat it.

Claiming it contained beer, even though it was clearly just a dish, Ellen felt she could eat it, but she had gotten drunk from just a bit of Ruffy Smith’s champagne last time...

This time it was just beer in the dish.

Ellen thought it would be no issue.

As for why she was making braised duck, it was because Lucy had recently praised someone else’s braised duck in a program, calling it delicious. Ellen decided to make it today after remembering this.

The light fragrance of beer intertwined with the rich aroma of duck meat.

The delectable scent wafted out of the kitchen, reaching the noses of the two conversing outside. Melissa’s eyes lit up as she sniffed, "Braised duck with beer, huh!"

Lucy immediately asked, "Have you had it before?"

Melissa nodded, "Mhm, I had it once before in Imperial City. It left an impression. There aren’t many dishes that include alcohol."

Lucy also reflected, "I just had braised duck recently, and I thought it was pretty good."

Could it be Ellen was making it for her?
