Hearing Shen Qian’s description, the living room fell silent at once.

After a while, Zhou Tianhao finally spoke up, frowning.

“So… Mr. Jiang Guangchen is deliberately making it hard for you?

“is the assessment for a Second-Level Food Recommender this challenging?” Zhou Tianhao couldn’t help but feel disheartened, having not attempted any Second-Level Food Recommender’s assessment. He felt bleak about the journey ahead.

“It does sound a bit excessive,” Qin Lang added, shaking his head from the side.

In his dislike for sweetness, he was told to incorporate sweetness to create a

dish that he would find satisfying.

This was rather abstract.

“Of course, it’s possible that the assessor has a hidden intention.” Qin Lang noted, after thinking of a possibility.

“A hidden intention…” Shen Qian pondered on this for a while before shaking

her head in despair, “I can’t think of one.

“You mentioned earlier that Mr. Jiang Guangchen doesn’t like sweet things.

What flavours does he like?” Qin Lang suddenly asked.

“He likes spicy food,” Shen Qian responded without hesitation, having obviously done her research. “Mr. Jiang Guangchen prefers food with a spicy kick.”

“Likes spicy?” Qin Lang scratched his chin thoughtfully.

He tried to put himself in Shen Qian’s shoes, and imagine enduring Mr. Jiang Guangchen’s trial.

If he were facing a similar challenge, what kind of delicious food would he present?

Given his preference for spice, the safest approach would be to combine the sweet taste he dislikes with the spicy flavour he enjoys.

Sweet and spicy flavours…?

Several ideas quickly came to Qin Lang’s mind.

He believed that if he were to undergo the assessment, he would likely pass. “Perhaps you could try combining sweet and spicy flavours?” Zhou Tianhao casually suggested, then laughed helplessly, “Can these two flavours really be combined together?”

“This is too difficult.” Shen Qian looked troubled as she ruffled her hair, “Sweetness and spiciness are two conflicting flavours’.”

Qin Lang glanced at Shen Qian, about to say something, but then decided against it.

It was Shen Qian who was going through the assessment.

Hence, he should not interfere excessively.

If Shen Qian couldn’t figure out a solution, he could provide some guidance then.

“Hang in there, there are still seven days left.” Qin Lang patted Shen Qian on the shoulder encouragingly, “Try a few more times and you’ll eventually see results.”

“Yeah! You too, defeat that guy named Yu Kun!” Shen Qian said earnestly, raising her fist.

Zhou Tianhao folded his arms and smiled as he watched their exchange. While he had nothing urgent to do at the moment, seeing these two youngsters working hard made him feel he should also be serious about improving himself.

Three days later, in the morning:

“Qin Lang! Today is the day for your debut in the Youth Training Competition, what are you dawdling around for!” Shen Qian rushed into the hotel kitchen and added, frowning cutely, “Still messing around with your mustard?”

“Let me check it.” Qin Lang opened a covered pot in the kitchen.

He had removed the mustard that had been drying for three days with the help of the two little ones last night, then blanched it in boiling water for a minute and left it in this pot.

After fermenting overnight, the mustard had turned from green to yellowish. “Can you help me by hanging this fermented mustard out to dry some more? After that, we can hit the road.”

“You sure are composed.” Shen Qian shook her head helplessly, and called out Zhou Tianhao, who was ready to leave at the doorway, to help.

Once they’d finished drying the mustard, the three of them arrived together at the Lanqiu Arena, the competition venue for the Lanqiu City Youth Training Competition.

“I heard that the Lanqiu Arena has a unique design, and it certainly does.” Standing outside the arena, Shen Qian tiptoed among the crowd, marveling at the giant spherical building before her.

The Lanqiu Arena looked like a sphere from the outside, with the top half made of translucent single-sided special glass, adorned with giant flowers, and a star-like platform in between the top and bottom halves.

“I’ll enter through the contestant passage first.” Qin Lang took a quick photo and hustled the two little ones towards a less crowded passage.

“Let’s go queue up in the audience line.” Zhou Tianhao chuckled. “Alright, your lady here has squeezed out a whole day from her busy schedule to watch Qin Lang’s match. This friendship is really moving.” Shen Qian put her hands on her hips, speaking somewhat arrogantly.

“Are you sure it’s not because you still can’t figure out a dish to handle Mr. Jiang’s assessment, so you’re taking a breather by coming out here?”

“Brother Zhou, don’t kick someone when they’re down.”

“Hahahaha-”

“Qin Lang, over here!”

As soon as Qin Lang set foot in the contestant preparation area, Bear Battle’s enthusiastic voice sounded.

He patted the empty seat next to him, where the Lv Family Sisters were sitting, “Come, I’ve saved you a seat.”

“Alright.” Seeing his enthusiasm, Qin Lang laughed and quickly walked over. Before he could make his way over, a figure suddenly stood up in front of him.

“Are you Qin Lang?”

“Yu Kun! What is it you want?” Bear Battle shouted, signalling Qin Lang of the person’s identity.

Qin Lang paused and studied the boy in front of him, noticing he looked older and taller by a head’s length.

With an air of arrogance on his serene face, not once did he make direct eye contact while speaking.

Such a proud boy, is this Yu Kun?

As Qin Lang was studying Yu Kun, two figures nearby stood up. Standing on either side of Yu Kun and barely half a step back, they seemed to be led by Yu Kun. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

“Exactly, I am Qin Lang.” After finishing his observation, Qin Lang nodded, “What’s up?”

“You must know Gong Xiao, right? He’s my uncle.” Yu Kun answered with an unaffected face.

So this was their relationship?

Qin Lang had a flash of realization in his eyes, and the previous poor attitude of Gong Xiao suddenly made sense.

But why was Yu Kun mentioning this now? Was he planning to pick a fight with him?

“And so?” In a split second, Qin Lang responded nonchalantly.

“As a staff member of the Association, my uncle’s attitude was indeed inappropriate, I apologize on his behalf,” Yu Kun continued his speech.

Huh?

Qin Lang was stunned.

This was not quite what he was expecting.

Apparently, this guy, Yu Kun, knew right from wrong and was sensible.

“It’s okay, I’ve lodged a complaint against him. He’s received due punishment and there’s no need for you to apologize,” Qin Lang capitulated.

“Hmm, so be it. Now let’s discuss another matter,” Yu Kun continued, lowering his gaze slightly for the first time to meet Qin Lang’s eye.

His towering height carried a natural sense of pressurization, and his personality brought another layer of pressure. Presently his words turned as they did, a flash of sharpness akin to a blade manifested in his eyes.

“I heard, you are interested in the championship?”
