Ch.186 Cook-off (2)

The recording of the documentary started the moment they got off the plane. Contrasting Li Murou’s culinary skills, Lin Yueqi’s baguette looked a bit “plain.”

There were some staff drinking the thick bread soup and looking in Lin Yueqi’s direction. They exclaimed in low voices, “She’s trying to copy Li Murou isn’t she? Women just love to compete with one another. She won’t even let her boyfriend eat some proper food. Is he not going to break up with her?”

There were some staff members that imagined themselves as Lu Ting. If their girlfriend refused to let him eat Li Murou’s delicious food but rather baked baguette, then they’d be furious for sure.

The other staff leaned against the tree and cupped the bowl. They also agreed, “I finally know why Mr. Lu didn’t marry her. She’s so hard to handle. This really…she’s immature isn’t she? Thinking carefully about this now, they understood. It was normal for women to be jealous of other women. Otherwise, one wouldn’t mimic someone else’s idiosyncrasies but make a fool of themselves.

The staff members huddled together to drink the thick bread soup and all nodded in unison, agreeing.

Even Zhou Qing sitting by the bonfire couldn’t take this anymore. He said, “Sister Qin, don’t you think this is a bit inappropriate? Everyone’s been in the car for an entire day. We’re all tired and hungry. We finally get something to eat and you won’t even let Brother Ting eat…”

While spinning the skewer around, Lin Yueqi said confusedly, “Since when didn’t I let him eat thick bread soup? He’s the one that thinks it tastes bad and refuses. Old Lu, am I right?”

Lu Ting furrowed his brows and nodded. “I might have a different taste from you guys but the food looks black and unappealing. It also has a strong fishy smell. I really can’t eat this.”

Hearing this, Zhou Qing and Huang Hai sitting at the bonfire were speechless.

Mr. Lu was probably henpecked. He was scared to this degree. How was this thick bread soup disgusting? How did it look black? It was clearly sparkling gold.

The two companions stopped talking.

When the two got up to bring the bowls to the kitchen, they started discussing in low voices.

Huang Hai said, “Zhou Qing, I think that Mr. Lu is too tragic. That’s why I said that if you’re going to get married, you have to marry a virtuous woman. If you want to find a girlfriend, find a gentle and fitting one. Look. Mr. Lu was the grandson of a top millionaire but look at the point he’s forced to…He couldn’t even tell the truth or eat Murou’s delicious food. I’m really curious. What will happen to him if he drinks it?”

Zhou Qing snorted. “What else could happen? She won’t let him in bed at night and he’d be forced to kneel on the washboard.”

Not only did they tease Lu Ting like this, the other staff members also did so.

Li Murou found out that Lin Yueqi didn’t let Lu Ting eat her food and instead, she went to bake a baguette for Lu Ting. This was enough to prove that Lin Yueqi was jealous of her. Standing from a man’s perspective, he might be able to hold on for a while but could he do so for life? No matter how generous the man was, he would be unable to tolerate how unreasonable his girlfriend is. Lu Ting might not say anything now but sooner or later, the two would get into a fight.

Thinking of this, Li Murou couldn’t help but feel a bit proud.

At this time, Lin Yueqi brought the baked bread to Lu Ting. She touched the surface and immediately pulled her hands back. She touched her earlobes and exclaimed, “Ow, it’s so hot.”

She puffed her cheeks and blew at the baked bread. She reached over after it became a bit cooler. She delivered half of it to the man and exclaimed, “Taste this. It should taste pretty good after dipping it in honey. The honey here is original so it should be nice. When I was young, I went up the mountains to chase away the cow herds. Sometimes I can’t make it back home in the afternoon so I would start a fire in the mountain to roast steamed buns and sweet potatoes. They taste crisp and delicious. Chubby bun also likes to eat roasted steamed buns and sweet potatoes too. But this is the first time trying out this method. Try it.”
