Jiang Xingyi also looked toward the phone. “Deng Bochao? Why is he calling you?”
Jiang Yu: “He probably wants to come over to our side.”
“Come over to our side?”
Jiang Xingyi frowned.
He was not a person who was easy to approach. His impression of Deng Bochao right now was.
He had no impression of him.
So, when he heard that he wanted to come over, he felt a sense of rejection.
But on second thought, if Deng Bochao really wanted to come over, they would not be able to reject him so easily.
It was true that they had the most dishes here, so it was understandable that Deng Bochao and the others wanted to come over. But as a man, if Deng Bochao could not get them with his own abilities and wanted to freeload off of them, Jiang Xingyi would not be too happy about it.
Jiang Yu had already picked up the phone.
“Yes, Jiang Yu here.”
“Yes.”
After a long silence
‘There was another “yes.”
A question mark slowly appeared above Jiang Xingyi’s head.
The call was still going and Jiang Yu’s reaction… What was going on?
From his point of view, he obviously did not know what Deng Bochao had said, but from the audience’s god-like point of view, they could see it clearly.
They could see Deng Bochao say, “Xinning and I don’t know how to cook. Sigh, we don’t know how we will survive until noon.”
Jiang Yu: “Oh.”
She was cold and indifferent, giving no reaction.
Deng Bochao: “We want to cook a dish. Other than knowing to put the oil first, we don’t know the order in which to put other things. If we burn down the kitchen, we’ll be guilty of a big crime…”
Jiang Yu patiently listened to him. After he finished speaking, she replied with an ” all right.”
The audience: ???
Was this not a little too cold?
[Deng Bochao has made it so obvious, but Jiang Yu hasn’t said anything. She’s doing this on purpose, right? She’s doing this on purpose, isn’t she? She’s making things very awkward for Deng Bochao. If she doesn’t want Deng Bochao to come over, she could just reject him. Why does she have to resort to
cold violence?]
Uiang Yu actually wants Deng Bochao to back off. It isn’t appropriate for her to say it out loud and respond so coldly though. However, doesn’t she know how hurtful it would be? They are all guests and there are many more episodes to record together. Why does she have to make it so awkward?)
(Exactly. It’s just a few dishes. Do you have to be so calculative? You’re too stingy!]
[I didn’t know that there were so many saints online. Why don’t you say that Deng Bochao’s shy? If he wanted something, he would just say it out loud. Why does he keep going around the bush? Doesn’t he look petty?]
After Deng Bochao said a long string of things, he was a little angry when he saw that Jiang Yu had not reacted as expected. When he heard Yao Xinning say “forget it” in a low voice, he felt even more embarrassed. Finally, he asked straightforwardly, “Can we come over and share a table with you guys?”
Jiang Yu suddenly understood and said, “So that’s what you want. Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Deng Bochao: “..”
He felt like he had been tricked.
Deng Bochao took a deep breath and patiently asked again, “Can we?”
Jiang Yu: “Then, what are you going to provide for us?”
Deng Bochao almost could not breathe.
What else was there to provide?
This little girl was too shrewd, wasn’t she?
Did she know that this was a recording of a show?
Did she know that this image would be very disadvantageous to her?
But Jiang Yu clearly did not care about this.
In her opinion, Deng Bochao and Yao Xinning were just passers-by and did not belong in the category of her friends, so they naturally would not receive any preferential treatment from her.
She could help, but why would she need to help for no reason?
In particular, she did not like the other party’s high profile. It was as if it was a common occurrence for them to ask for help.
She could not help but think that if it was Ji Churan, she would probably chase after her and say that she wanted to repay her. Chen Miaoyi and even Miss Qin were the same. Why could the others not learn this principle?
Jiang Yu thought coldly, ‘Ah, I suddenly miss the dishes that Churan cooks.’
She sighed.
Jiang Xingyi acutely thought that she was in a bad mood because of her phone call with Deng Bochao. He reached out to take the phone. “Don’t talk to him. I’ll talk to him.”
Jiang Yu shook her head. “There’s no need.”
She then looked at the other end of the phone and asked, “Have you thought about it?”
Deng Bochao thought for a while before replying, “No.”
How could he have thought of it in such a short period of time?!
It was impossible for him to suddenly fulfill such an extremely high request, so he could not do it either.
Jiang Yu said, “Then you’ll owe me for now. Come over.”
After hanging up, Jiang Yu said something to Jiang Xingyi, but Jiang Xingyi was not surprised.
In any case, he would unconditionally support Jiang Yu’s decision. He was even willing to eat less himself and not starve his little sister.
Jiang Yu shook her finger. “Don’t worry. No one will go hungry. I just might need your help.”
Jiang Xingyi pointed at himself. “Me?”
Jiang Yu nodded. “Yes.”
Jiang Xingyi was at a loss. When the program team heard their conversation, they suddenly panicked.
‘What was this little girl thinking again?!
‘When Deng Bochao and Yao Xinning came over, they saw five dishes on the table.
The two of them: ???
Didn’t they only get three dishes? Why were there five dishes here?
Moreover, each dish looked beautiful, fragrant, and tasty. It was hard to tell which dish was cooked by Jiang Yu and the others. It felt like they had blended into the local dishes.
‘Were Jiang Yu and the others so good at cooking?
The two of them looked at Jiang Yu in surprise and even ignored Jiang Xingyi.
Jiang Xingyi: … Wait, am I invisible? Can’t I have been the one who cooked these dishes?
It was not surprising that Deng Bochao and Yao Xinning did not think of Jiang Xingyi at all. After all, who would think that a young and famous singer would be so good at cooking?
Jiang Yu shrugged, meaning that she did not cook it.
The two of them looked at the program team at the same time, meaning that the program team was cheating!
Why had the three dishes that they had agreed on become five dishes?!
Why had they given Jiang Yu and the others special treatment?!
‘Why was it so unfair?!
‘Wait… No wonder Jiang Yu agreed to let them come over. Could it be that the program team was going easy on them?
The program team’s expression was a little complicated.
The director cleared his throat and said, “We didn’t do this. They…”
Although he did not want to admit it, Jiang Yu, the bug on the program team, was once again trying to exploit a loophole.
The program team only said that the game could get the dishes. Otherwise, they would have to cook the dishes themselves. But, they did not say that the local villagers could not take the initiative to provide the dishes!
‘When Jiang Yu saw that the young girl in the kitchen kept looking in their direction, she guessed that she must be a fan of Jiang Xingyi.. Just as she was about to ask Jiang Xingyi to provide an autograph in exchange for a dish, she did not expect… The young girl stammered
