Chapter 916: Chapter 388: Loaded with Fancy Words—Are You Aiming for Grad School? Store Review Streamers Are Swarming! [Seeking Subscriptions]

So delicious.

Chen Yan tasted a couple of bites and then said:

"Wu Kexin just asked me to find content for the live stream, so in that case, let’s have her do a live stream here this afternoon. Just for this delicious dessert, it’s worth some advertising."

If it was made from other ingredients, Chen Yan wouldn’t think of advertising it, but since it’s made from kelp, the cost must be low.

Low cost means high profit.

What are we waiting for?

Let’s go all out with the promotion!

This afternoon, not only let Wu Kexin come for the live stream, but also let Yue Liyue join in on the fun. People from Lingnan love to add kelp to their desserts, so this one should suit their taste.

Lin Xu didn’t mind these arrangements:

"Sure, no problem."

His senior brother was also coming this afternoon, so they could collaborate a bit, which would help boost his brother’s followers and eventually he can explore his own Fishing Platform.

This would also be a good chance to inform the audience about the dishes and some etiquette at the Fishing Platform.

Everyone thought it was so delicious that while eating, they started to look forward to the Crystal Sugar Ginger Juice Jade Custard.

The brown sugar one was so tasty, surely the crystal sugar one wouldn’t be too far off, right?

Seeing everyone enjoying themselves, Lin Xu remembered there was still a Perfect Level dish he hadn’t drawn yet, so he picked up Dundun and did a little draw.

"Congratulations to the host for winning the Perfect Level traditional Hebei dish—Xianghe Meat Pie."

What?

Xianghe Meat Pie?

Isn’t this the meat pie we often bought from the alley behind the school?

With a thin crust and a lot of filling, the thin skin is packed with thick meat. I never expected to draw this dish, so when I’m not busy these days, I definitely have to make it once to relive the joy of eating a big meat pie.

The way to make this pie is actually a bit similar to the Zhuang Mo in the area bordering Central Plains and Shandong.

But Zhuang Mo is larger and has more filling, each one is as big as a car wheel, and cutting off a slice is enough to fill you up.

Compared to Zhuang Mo, Xianghe Meat Pie seems like a mini version.

Soon, it was noon.

Everyone gathered in the super large private room, somewhat lost in the sight of the table full of delicious dishes.

The food was abundant and aromatic, leading Chen Yan to tease:

"Professor Cui, you should have a cross-cup drink with President Yan."

Her instigation led others to join in, especially Geng Lele, who was under great academic pressure, even patted the table to egg them on.

In front of his own people, Cui Qingyuan wasn’t too shy. He held Yan Lin’s hand, and the two of them stood up to have a cross-cup drink.

As they downed their drinks, everyone applauded.

This childhood sweetheart couple deserves to be together forever.

"Linlin, try this Silver Shrimp Soup made by Boss Lin. It’s a dish countless researchers of ancient culture have been longing for, and it even appeared in ’The Plum in the Golden Vase.’ Who would have thought Boss Lin could recreate it?"

"How does it taste?"

"It’s so delicious that words can’t describe it."

Yan Lin tasted it and indeed found it delicious.

"Little Lin’s skills are truly exceptional. I used to sympathize with people in Beijing every time I visited, thinking it must be tough living in such a food-poor place, but now... I should feel sorry for the people of Shanghai."

Both the braised fish on the table and the Leisha Yuan served before the meal amazed her.

Who would have thought a young man from the Central Plains could make more authentic Shanghai cuisine in Beijing than in Shanghai itself?

It’s truly beyond imagination.

Every dish on the table was almost a masterpiece.

Even the simplest side dish could become a specialty in an ordinary restaurant.

Such a restaurant is destined to be successful.

Although the couple marveled at Lin Xu’s skills, they found it quite normal. After all, everyone has different talents, like how certain professors easily excel in artificial intelligence, while his childhood sweetheart effortlessly amassed assets worth billions.

Talent is something you can’t see or touch, but it definitely exists.

Near the end of the meal, the waiter brought over Crystal Sugar Ginger Juice Jade Custard, also served in small white porcelain bowls.

"Wow, this is delicious too. I just thought my mouth felt greasy, but one bite of this cool dessert and it’s really refreshing."

"I thought the brown sugar ginger juice would far surpass the crystal sugar ginger juice, but it turns out they’re on par."

"A small bowl after a meal is indeed refreshing."

"The more I eat, the more incredible it seems—kelp can actually be prepared like this."

"It feels like it was a waste to cook it with pork ribs before."

"..."

After the meal, Yan Lin took a car to deal with matters at the branch office, while Cui Qingyuan headed back to school with the delighted Geng Lele to continue teaching.

"Godfather, aren’t you and my godmother going to take a honeymoon? Go on a vacation for three to five years, how great would that be."

"No need. We don’t need those things because every second we’re together is a honeymoon."

"Tsk tsk tsk, you’re actually flaunting your affection at me."

"Lele, study hard. I plan for you to get your master’s degree within two years, don’t let your godfather down."

"Why?"

"I’m somewhat of an expert in the field of artificial intelligence. Many rules and theories were written by me, and I don’t want my goddaughter to be mediocre."

Geng Lele: ?????

Who are you looking down on?

Believe it or not, I’ll build a little robot cat that can climb trees and scratch within a year... Hey, Dundun is always playing by itself and seems lonely, so I’ll just make it a little buddy!

The Demon Sect leader has puppet protection, and though we’re Meow Meow Sect, the Holy Master’s status can’t be lacking either.

Hmm, it’s a happy decision!

Around five in the afternoon, Gou Junguo, the front desk manager of the Yanjing Hotel, drove to Lin Ji’s Food and told the accompanying cameraman and on-site director:

"Remember, we’re here to pick a fight today. Yanjing Hotel’s online reputation is plummeting, so we have to do something about the other side’s fame too."

The director, a young man with glasses:

"Why not go to the Fishing Platform then?"

Gou Junguo replied in a disgruntled tone:

"Why go to the Fishing Platform? There’s a state visit from foreign guests there now. If I pick a fight, who do you think will end up picking a fight with whom? Let’s go check out Lin Ji first. Give Xie Baomin a heads-up on how he bullied our Yanjing Hotel. We’ll do the same to him. Consider yourselves warned!"

With their strategy finalized, the three of them got out of the car with their filming equipment, as if heading off to a battlefield.

However, as soon as they entered, they... they bumped into Xie Baomin, who was filming the opener:

"As requested by the fearless online community, I’m here to visit my junior’s shop. The shop has introduced some new dishes that I haven’t tried yet, so I’ll take the time today to evaluate them and nitpick. Old Xie pays a visit, no mercy, GO!"

Before he could finish, he noticed Gou Junguo holding filming equipment as well:

"Hey? Little Gou Guo, what brings you here? Fancy a surprise attack too?"

Just as Gou Junguo was about to speak, Wu Kexin’s voice sounded not far off:

"Hi everyone, it’s your old friend Xinxin. I was just worrying about live stream content, and the boss said Lin Ji has some new desserts that are particularly friendly to women, so I’m here to check it out and promote it. Today, we’ll explore the old shop with new insights to see what new products Boss Lin has introduced recently... Eh? Chef Xie?"

Xie Baomin smiled and asked Wu Kexin:

"Xinxin, are you here to live stream again?"

"Yes, Chef Xie, what brings you here? Recording a store visit? Perfect timing, let’s do it together. My fans have a lot of questions for you."

Gou Junguo: "..."

Chief Ye, come in Chief Ye, I feel like I’m surrounded here!
