An hour and a half passed.
Li An’an started to make taro soup. However, she planned to make this dish with crab roe and boiled soup, so that it would bring out the best flavor. She mashed the taro in a small bowl and slowly added salt to improve the taste.
After adding the salt, she scooped a small amount to taste. Suddenly, she frowned! An icy expression flashed across her face as she hurriedly checked her salt jar. The top layer was indeed salt, but there was sugar below that! Using a spoon, she dug to the bottom of the jar. It was a mixture of salt and sugar throughout!
Anger flashed in her eyes. To think that someone would play such tricks.
Zhang Yingmeng saw Li An’an’s frown. “What’s wrong with Ugly Mommy? Is the taste not what you expected? Does that mean this dish is ruined? Are you intending to admit defeat?”
Zhang Yingmeng walked to Li An’an’s side and smiled as she looked at the taro. Who would eat this?! She would consider what Miss Ji was doing to be culinary arts.
“I’m requesting a new jar of salt!”
Zhang Yingmeng was surprised. “Don’t tell me you’re blaming the salt for your lack of cooking skills. I’m sorry, I’ve already spelled out the rules. All the things you’ve selected cannot be changed. In other words, there are only these things. If you don’t want them, we will consider your participation void, no matter what the reason is!”
“I can’t change it even if there’s something wrong with it?”
“Yes, that’s the rule, but you should take Miss Ji as a good example. She follows the rules very closely!”
Ji Yin raised her head. She had already completed two dishes, and they were both fragrant. Li An’an was still making the first dish. It seemed like… Haha, it seemed like she had finally discovered the problem!
Unfortunately, it was too late. The program was already halfway through filming. Even if she made a scene, others would only say that she was guilty and making excuses! She had already made it clear, she would never lose to such an ugly woman!
Ji Yin said, “Ugly Mommy, although it’s a competition and the rules are such, if you want some of my ingredients, I’m still willing to give them to you. Isn’t there a saying that friendship comes first and competition comes second? My family’s tradition is to be humble and kind!”
It had to be said that Ji Yin was very good at pretending. Even if Li An’an did not see the live comments, she could tell from the reactions of the audience that Ji Yin’s words were very convincing.
If she accepted the woman’s ingredients, she’d be thoroughly shamed!
“That’s not necessary. We’ll leave any talking till after the competition!” She threw out the taro that was in the bowl and started cooking again. Fortunately, there were still taros left!
Ji Yin laughed. After the competition? Haha, there was no chance. Because the loser would have no chance to defend herself.
In the conference room.
Chu Yichen was in a meeting, but he kept staring at his phone. The higher-ups looked at each other.
They had already said everything they needed to say. The CEO had been silent for a long time. Was he agreeing to this project or not?
Li Cheng did not dare to hurry him.
The CEO was watching Li An’an’s challenge, he didn’t have the guts to interrupt. He didn’t know what had happened either. The CEO’s lips curled up slightly, and his expression, which initially looked happy, had turned ice-cold in the blink of an eye.
He was willing to bet that there must have been a problem with the competition. Li An’an might have been tricked. Otherwise, the CEO would not have reacted this way.
However, even so, it was a live broadcast and the CEO could not do anything.
So he whispered,
“CEO, why don’t we finish the meeting first?”
Chu Yichen looked up from his phone and stood up. “Meeting adjourned!” His tall figure made its way to the door and quickly disappeared.
The higher-ups looked at each other. What was wrong with the CEO?! He rarely acted like this.
Li Cheng stood up to deal with the aftermath.”l’ll inform everyone of the
outcome this afternoon!”
The competition should end at noon, so the CEO should have time to give them an answer in the afternoon! They could only wait!
