Lu Ziqiu only realized what he had missed in hindsight. He quickly turned around.
What met his eyes was Wen Zhi's forced smile. "Ziqiu, if we don't start cooking, we won't be able to have lunch on time."
Wen Zhi's soft tone and caring words successfully stirred up a hint of guilt in Lu Ziqiu's heart. He scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Sorry, Sister Zhi. I was just looking at what the other guests were making for lunch and learning from them."
Lu Ziqiu looked a bit unnatural. These excuses might fool the audience, but they couldn't deceive Wen Zhi.
She knew all too well about Lu Ziqiu's little gestures when he lied.
Wen Zhi almost gritted her silver teeth. She glanced at Wen Yin, who was helping Shao Yinan tie his apron not far away. She was so angry that she wished she could rush over and bite him to death!
This little bitch not only seduced Shao Yinan, but now she had even stolen Lu Ziqiu away!
Anger swept through her body in an instant, but Wen Zhi managed to suppress it forcefully.
This was a live broadcast. She mustn't be stupid!
"Okay, then let's start right away!"
Lu Ziqiu replied, "Okay, Sister Zhi."
[Has anyone noticed that the way the younger brother addresses Wen Zhi has changed? He added the word 'sister'!]
[Is he trying to clarify something? I clearly remember that the younger brother had a crush on Wen Zhi when he first came. Why did he suddenly start chasing Wen Yin?]
[Right! What's so charming about Wen Yin? She only has looks and nothing else!]
[Does this good-for-nothing vase like Wen Yin even deserve it?]
[She must have used some underhanded means. You know what I mean!]
[Tsk tsk tsk. I didn't expect the entertainment industry to be so complicated!]
Wen Zhi's fans were even happier when they saw this. They frantically splashed dirt and smeared Wen Yin.
They didn't care what Wen Yin had done wrong. They just subconsciously thought that Wen Yin should be a foil to Wen Zhi!
They even thought that all this was Wen Yin's deserved punishment!
[Help! Why is everyone scolding Wen Yin? Wen Yin has been working hard and participating in the show. What did she do wrong?]
[I'm speechless. Please be merciful, you trolls upstairs. Shouldn't we be talking about Lu Ziqiu now?]
[He changed his heart after just two episodes. Isn't he a big scumbag?]
[Right. I don't understand why they're scolding Wen Yin. Is it Wen Yin's fault that she's liked?]
[Wen Zhi's fans, stop causing trouble here! Yin has done nothing wrong!]
[Agreed! Let's take a look at this philandering Casanova Lu Ziqiu first!]
Lu Ziqiu and Wen Yin, who were seriously researching cooking, had no idea that the fans of several parties in the live chat had already started arguing because of Lu Ziqiu's attitude towards her.
In the kitchen, on the surface, it was calm and the atmosphere was harmonious, but underneath, there were hidden undercurrents. If one wasn't careful, this mine would explode.
Shao Yinan wasn't very good at cooking, so Wen Yin took on the major responsibility alone. Shao Yinan stood beside her, carefully passing various ingredients and seasonings.
[I have to say, Shao Yinan really looks like a big dog!]
[So cute! I want to rua him!]
[Wen Yin: I'm going to kiss this cute dog to death!]
[The one upstairs is right!]
Xiang Zhou beside them clumsily imitated Wen Yin. Although the dishes he cooked didn't look good, they were at least edible.
Naturally, he was reluctant to let Li Xiangwei get contaminated by the fumes. As soon as she finished washing the vegetables, Xiang Zhou found an excuse to send her out of the kitchen.
On the sofa outside the kitchen, Li Xiangwei's eyes fell on Xiang Zhou's busy and clumsy back from time to time. A hint of a smile unconsciously appeared in her eyes.
A few seconds later, as if she had noticed something wrong, Li Xiangwei coughed twice and resumed her usual cold and aloof appearance.
[What did I just see? 'Xiang Zhou' is giving out sugar! Right? Right?]
[I didn't expect that some people seem to be cold and elegant on the surface, but actually have a small tsundere heart!]
[I won't say who's cuteness button has been poked!]
[Xiangwei: You might as well just announce my ID number!]
[I'm so into it! Today's live broadcast is really full of sweetness!]
After a busy period, the guests finally finished making lunch. Although the dishes of some groups didn't look very good.
The nine guests sat down according to their groups, and in front of them were the fruits of their labor for the whole noon.
The food in front of Xiao Mo and Qian Shuzhi, the bottom feeders, was in a terrible state.
Because Xiao Mo accidentally used soy sauce instead of light soy sauce when cooking, the dishes on the plate were now pitch-black.
Wen Zhi and Lu Ziqiu weren't much better.
They were both young masters and ladies who had never done any housework. They almost blew up the kitchen during their first time cooking!
The dishes they made were even more unpalatable. Wen Zhi stopped eating after just two bites. Her eyes uncontrollably fell on one side again.
Wen Yin and Shao Yinan were sitting side by side, and there were a total of four dishes in front of them!
Among them, the oil-braised prawns in front of Wen Yin were exuding a tempting fragrance, making Wen Zhi swallow her saliva frequently.
Her eyes became even more venomous.
She couldn't have lunch, so why could this little bitch Wen Yin have a full meal?!
When Wen Zhi looked at Wen Yin for God knows how many times, Wen Yin finally raised her head. Wen Zhi's gaze unexpectedly met Wen Yin's.
She even swallowed her saliva uncontrollably.
[I don't understand. Why does Wen Zhi keep swallowing her saliva at Wen Yin?]
[Hahaha. Is the one upstairs really that stupid or just pretending?]
[How mean! Saying that about Wen Zhi. Although I'm enjoying it! [Dog face]]
"Teacher Wen's cooking skills seem really good. I wonder if I'll have the chance to taste them."
The smell of the oil-braised prawns was so tempting that Wen Zhi's mind went blank for a moment, and she blurted out uncontrollably.
The moment she said it, Wen Zhi wished she could slap herself.
She had actually compromised to this little bitch Wen Yin!
Wen Yin raised her eyebrows, a look of surprise flashing through her eyes. She seemed unable to believe what she had heard.
A few seconds later, her cold voice slowly came, like the just-melted snow on a glacier, with a hint of coldness.
"Teacher Wen is being polite. This is the rule set by the program team. I'm sure Teacher Wen doesn't want to break it, right?"
Wen Zhi's face turned ashen. Her eyes still involuntarily fell on the plate of prawns. To make matters worse, there was a peeled prawn in Wen Yin's bowl.
Shao Yinan's voice came, "Yeah, it's just the game rule. We have no choice but to follow it."
He emphasized the words 'have no choice but', and his hands didn't stop moving.
Wen Yin followed the prawn with her eyes. The man's long and fair hands were extremely dexterous at this moment, peeling the prawn shell completely off.
The white prawn meat was revealed. The next second, the prawn appeared in her bowl.
"I owe this lunch to Yin. All I can do is peel prawns for her as a thank-you." Shao Yinan's peach blossom eyes were filled with a smile when he looked at her, making his expression extremely affectionate.
His thin lips parted slightly, and the lazy ending of his voice rose slightly, with a hint of seduction.
"Yin, give me some face, okay?"
