After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!

Chapter 487 - 474: Let Them Argue!

Su Yu’s voice came through the pleated window, and the young chef standing at the door immediately asked, "Can I provide help directly?"Su Yu nodded, "Yes."

Su Yu’s thought was that the chef could give verbal guidance while the guest did the work, and the result would at least be satisfactory to some extent.

So he didn’t take it too seriously, because his assistant had informed him that Group B had completed their task and was on their way over.

"I’ll go down and have a look."

Su Yu left the private room and went downstairs, just as Group B’s car arrived.

Six people got off the car, Zhao Lan and Jingjing looking utterly exhausted.

"Congratulations on completing the task. Now, Group B members, please proceed to the next phase, where you will turn the seafood you collected into finished dishes. The final products of both teams will be submitted to the judges for scoring. The team with the highest score will win today, and the winning contestants can choose the task for tomorrow first."

The members of Group B laughed as soon as they heard they had to personally handle the food.

Because Xiaoxiao’s family is from a coastal area, he is well-versed in handling seafood.

Liu Ren took the food they collected and went into the private room Su Yu had reserved, where they began cooking with the private chef.

Xiao Hu and Wang Li caught sea urchins, and the private chef suggested making sashimi and then a pot of sea urchin porridge. Despite Xiao Hu’s carefree demeanor, he was efficient with kitchen chores and almost completed everything without needing Wang Li’s help.

Zhao Lan and Jingjing, on the other hand, both had gentle dispositions and were leisurely enjoying the kitchen, which made the live stream viewers anxious.

[Am I the only one feeling anxious watching this? If I were there, I’d kick both of them out of the kitchen. Can you believe how nerve-wracking this is?]

[It’s just cooking, what’s the hurry? Can Jingjing cut the fish into bigger pieces? Is she afraid of hurting the fish?]

[Oh dear, I can’t bear to watch this. I’m going over to Qin Yun’s stream. The fans there are more fun and pleasant to listen to; everyone is so talented.]

[No one asked you to be here!!]

[Exactly, Qin Yun’s fans are so annoying.]

[To the commenter above, I’m not even a fan of Qin Yun’s - I just find the atmosphere in that stream better. Don’t generalize, okay? We’re all fans here, what makes you so high and mighty?]

A bizarre argument broke out in Zhao Lan and Jingjing’s live stream, sparked by a trivial matter, but as more people got involved, it escalated.

They originally had a modest following because of their gentle demeanor, but after the argument, their live stream audience doubled.

"Zhao Lan’s live stream has erupted into an argument because a fan mentioned Qin Yun."

Su Yu’s assistant, monitoring the various live streams, immediately caught on and reported to Su Yu.

Su Yu glanced at the traffic and waved it off, "Ignore it, let them argue."

This level of argument is hardly a concern; a little moderation later will suffice, plus Zhao Lan and Jingjing aren’t petty, so nothing serious will come of it.

Su Yu’s attention shifted entirely to the two kitchens, watching as both groups worked hard for tomorrow’s advantage.

Xiaoxiao truly lived up to his reputation. Despite being late in the morning and receiving a challenging task card, he still managed to get fresh salmon, and was now preparing sushi.

Wearing a black apron, he embodied the perfect atmosphere.

With a long thin knife in hand, his focused fish-slicing was a breathtaking sight.

Xiaoxiao’s fans were screaming in the live stream, especially since this was his first time cooking on a variety show, and fans were spreading the word. Soon, Xiaoxiao’s live stream became very popular.

The overall progress of Group B was impressive, and Xiaoxiao even roasted a saury given by the fishermen.

The roasted aroma was so appetizing it made viewers salivate through the screen, and everyone believed Group B would perfectly complete the task this time, even Su Yu worried for Group A. However, when he turned back to their kitchen, he was disheartened.

Group B’s private chef was instructing three partners simultaneously.

Meanwhile, Group A’s private chef only focused on Qin Yun, helping chop scallions and chili, and serving her tea and water.

The attentiveness was like an ancient staff member.

However, in front of the other three stood young chefs whose hats, though not as tall as the private chef’s, were all attractive.

The young chef with Li Ning said, "Yes, make cuts on the surface, marinate the fish a little, plate it, then drizzle on soy sauce for steamed fish, and start steaming once the pot is heated up, yes, cover the lid."

The young chef taught Li Ning how to steam fish, treating it like delicate artwork, making Li Ning so nervous he followed every instruction to the letter, not daring to act without guidance.

Seizing a moment when the private chef wasn’t looking, Li Ning asked softly, "Are you always this serious about cooking?"

The young chef quickly glanced at the private chef by Qin Yun, shook his head, "Not always, but the master specifically asked us to guide you in cooking, so we must be serious."

Li Ning understood instantly, "Turns out we’re basking in Sister Yun’s glory."

Pei Yan shook his head, because CS Restaurant was owned by the Tang Family, providing Qin Yun with much support in terms of manpower and ingredients.

"Is it done?"

Qin Yun approached, eyeing the freshly baked cheese prawns next to Pei Yan, almost drooling.

Pei Yan gently pushed her head away, "Not yet."

Pei Yan picked up some nearby seasoning and twisted it over the cheese on the prawns several times.

"How about now?" Qin Yun asked again.

The cameraman immediately zoomed in on the interaction between the two.

Qin Yun’s camera-ready face appeared flawlessly on screen.

Pei Yan furrowed his brows slightly, but calmly said, "It’s ready."

He pushed the prawns in Qin Yun’s direction, intentionally taking a step to almost block most of the cameraman’s view, and said, "Why don’t you try it first? If it’s not good, we’ll make another batch."

Qin Yun’s eyes lit up, "I guarantee I’ll complete the task."

With Pei Yan partially shielding her, Qin Yun quickly devoured a plate of cheese prawns.

The speed amazed even Bai Ziyu beside her.

She ate quickly yet gracefully, exuding an endearing elegance, which was both contradictory and charming.

Pei Yan asked casually, "How does it taste?"
