nSudden Change

nTan Ming explained the steps she had thought of in detail.

nZhou Yan’s bacon and snails were relatively normal among the combinations, so the two of them could stir-fry them directly with a few side dishes.

nOn the other hand, Wang Li planned to directly combine the chicken and squid into a griddle and use heavy flavors to cover up the two ingredients that did not match. In order to create her diligent reputation, Tan Si suggested helping to cut vegetables, an extremely rare sight.

nTan Si had never cooked before, so Wang Li did not dare to let her cut the vegetables. She was afraid that it would cause an accident, so she found an excuse and said, “You don’t know how big a piece I want to cut. I’ll do it myself. You can just wash these vegetables.”

nSeeing this, Tan Si took a large basin and threw the chicken, squid, and vegetables into the basin to wash them.

nSeeing this, Wang Li hurriedly took another basin and moved the vegetables over. She instructed softly, “If you wash the vegetables and meat together, it will be stained with animal fat. It’s not good to wash this way.”

nEveryone figured out what to do and began to get busy. The live-stream was also very lively.

n“Yo, Tan Si is secretly looking at her phone at night?! Why is she being so diligent today?”

n“Hehe, the key is that she can’t even pretend to be diligent. She might as well maintain her princess persona. She still had to be taught how to wash vegetables.”

n“Previous commenter, are you so free that you feel uncomfortable if you don’t find something to say? Whether Si Si tries to do some work or not, you still have something to say. Do you know how to do things the moment you were born?! Your mother doesn’t need to teach you, right?!”

n“I think you guys are still angry from embarrassment after being exposed. I didn’t say that anyone was born to do things. But Tan Si is 23 years old, not 3 years old. Isn’t she like a giant baby who doesn’t know anything?”

n“In comparison, I like our An’an even more. She’s capable and straightforward. She’s not as pretentious and hypocritical as some people!”

n“Of course. My little sister is really beautiful and kind. She hasn’t even cooked her own dishes and she’s already teaching others. She’s so meticulous that she’s just short of doing it herself!”

n“No matter what, our Si Si’s attitude at least shows that although she doesn’t know how to do some things, she’s willing to learn!”

n…

nCooking was a skill. Even though Bai Ling and Yuan Jing had recipes, they needed experience to know how to season food and the heat and timing of cooking. Bai Ling and Tan Ming shared the same pot and had taken advantage of Tan Ming’s cooking skills, as Tan Ming helped to monitor her cooking.

nYuan Jing did not receive such good treatment. Although Tan Ming had given her the recipe, she still remembered that Yuan Jing wanted to ride on her third brother’s popularity. She really did not like her. Therefore, Tan Ming rejected the other party’s request for her help in the kitchen on the grounds that she was too busy.

nHalf an hour later, everyone’s dishes were successfully served.

nWang Li had not cooked for many years. The host and his wife were always busy with work and relied on their helper. The dishes that everyone made could only be said to be ordinary home-cooked dishes. It was not difficult to eat them. Bai Ling relied on Tan Ming’s crucial help to cook the dish. Coupled with the stimulation from fried oil and spices, the taste was not bad.

nThe taste of Yuan Jing’s dish was very complicated. The cold dish emphasized was supposed to be sour and spicy to serve as an appetizer, but this cold egg shrimp was unappetizing and also made the stomach turn sour.

nTan Ming, a 26-year-old veteran with 20 years of experience in the kitchen, managed to get first place with her lotus root dish that looked, smelled, and tasted good.

nSi Cheng saw from afar that Tan Ming was picking up a tree branch for Jiang Huai to eat. From his angle, the two of them were smiling sweetly when they looked at each other. Si Cheng was so angry that he stood up and wanted to rush over.

nNing Gang hugged Si Cheng, who had stood up, and shouted anxiously, “Calm down! Calm down! It’s a live broadcast over there. You represent the Si family. The investors are all looking at you, the person-in-charge! Take a deep breath and maintain a steady image!”

nThe final time limit for the secret mission was until noon today. Tan Si knew that she could not complete her mission, so she gave up and stopped struggling. On the other hand, Yuan Jing thought that she had successfully completed her mission by getting Zhou Yan and his wife to shout the slogan yesterday. The atmosphere during lunch was very harmonious.

nAfter lunch, the guests began their lunch break. They all returned to their tents to take an afternoon nap. The camera only captured a row of tents, and the live broadcast room fell silent. The fans took this time to eat and do other things.

nAs usual, Tan Ming secretly ran to pump her milk. Just as she reached the logistics area, a hand suddenly covered her mouth and pulled her into a small forest at the side. She was so frightened that she immediately struggled violently. Si Cheng knew her strength and immediately let go and said, “It’s me.”
