The head chef was naturally Ling Sheng. Team Redâs people only knew how to eat. Even washing vegetables could destroy them. There was no need to expect them to help.
Ling Sheng was displeased that she had failed to get the old hen. She was planning to feed her father cornbread at night and make him healthy so that he would not eat chicken.
However, he was dumbfounded the moment he entered the courtyard.
Damn!
All the good things in the house had been moved out, and the table was full of raw materials, including bee pupas, half a pot of lively little anchovies, half-dried river shrimp, two precious swamp eels, fresh free-range chicken legs, and grasshoppers who had been starved for two days that were ready to be fried tomorrow, as well as conches that had been dehydrated.
Shi Lingyu took a small portion of wild honey out of the house and put it in a bowl. She walked nervously over to Huo Ci and said, âSenior Huo, we went up the mountain to find this. Itâs very sweet. Try it.â
âThank you.â Huo Ci took it with a gentle smile. Upon seeing the food placed in half of the courtyard, his interest was piqued. âYour living conditions are not bad. Looks like Iâm blessed today.â
Hadnât she said she wanted to experience life?
Wasnât the purpose of this show to make them suffer?
Why was this yard full of game meat?
âSheng Sheng caught all these.â Mo Ningâs smile was very polite. She walked over to explain and gave him a thumbs-up. âBest Actor, this is really your artist. Sheâs great.â
Huo Ci gave Ling Sheng a fake smile. âYouâre that impressive?â
Ling Sheng smiled, her eyes crinkling slightly. She was a little shy. âDirector Mo was too generous with her praise. Everyone deserves credit. Iâm just taking the lead. These things were caught by me and my friends. Weâll be happy if you eat them, Senior.â
What was that look of his?
It seemed like he didnât agree that she should lead such a good life.
He would only be happy if he saw her eating pickles and drinking cold water!
Huo Ci smiled gently. âIâm looking forward to it. I havenât eaten this kind of food in a long time.â
Shi Lingyu tried her best to control the excitement in her heart, but she did not dare look him in the eye. âDonât worry, Senior Huo. Sheng Shengâs dishes are delicious. I promise theyâre no worse than a chefâs cooking.â
Huo Ci nodded and looked at her. âThank you for the honey. Itâs very sweet.â
Of course, he knew about the bratâs culinary skills. Even though his mother had been cooking her entire life, she had yet to reach her standards.
âItâs good that you like it, Senior,â Shi Lingyu answered loudly, feeling flattered. Then, she realized that she had overreacted. She hurriedly turned around, pretending not to mind. âIâll wash the vegetables.â
Huo Ci took a look at Ling Sheng.
Fine!
He had underestimated her.
She was basically well-versed in everything!
âSenior Huo, take a break or ask Little Ye to take you out for a walk. The scenery here is not bad.â Ling Sheng smiled.
She knew that he had kicked her down to seek revenge. Look at his disappointed expression. What kind of father was this?
âThatâs too troublesome!â Huo Ci was very polite.
âItâs not troublesome. Anyway, he has to take Little Gray out every day,â Ling Sheng replied casually.
The moment she finished speaking, the guests and production crew were stunned. However, they held back their laughter.
Mo Ning was stunned. She lowered her head and thought, Itâs none of my business. I donât know anything. Why is this girl so bold? Why didnât she take a look at the person in front of her? How dare she joke?
The key was that she was speaking in all seriousness, and her expression was solemn. If one did not know how ugly she was deep down, one would definitely not expect her to do this on purpose.
