Chapter 584 - 584 Arrogant to the Bones
584 Arrogant to the Bones
“A few…” He Yuanyuan said.
“Are you trying to suffocate the boss?”
“Suffocate?”
“Of course.” He Yuanyuan said.
“Think about it. It will take at least a year from pregnancy to childbirth. If you want to give birth to a few children, the amount of private time he will have can be counted on two hands. I can’t even stand it as a woman, let alone a man like him.”
“Let’s change the subject. Let’s not talk about this anymore.”
“You’re already an adult. Why do you keep spouting such nonsense?”
“This is something we all have to go through. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about.”
“It’s still not something to be discussed.”
He Yuanyuan rolled her eyes. It was really hard for her boss to meet a woman like her senior sister.
“Miss He, you guys can go out and wait. Mr. Lin and I will bring the fried rice out later. We need you guys to test it,” Deng Wenlin said.
“Got it, Master Deng.”
Ji Qingyan and He Yuanyuan sat down at the table. Coincidentally, they had not eaten lunch yet, so they were looking forward to it.
He Yuanyuan even took out two bottles of mineral water as if she was at home.
“Senior Sister, I think we should play a trick,” He Yuanyuan whispered.
“What do you mean?”
“You should remember what the boss’s egg-fried rice looks like, right?”
“Yes, I always eat it.”
“That’s great. I remember what it looks like too.” He Yuanyuan said.
“When the egg fried rice is served later, no matter how delicious Master Deng’s cooking is, we’ll say that the boss’ is more delicious. No matter what, we have to protect the boss’s image.”
“That’s not a good idea.”
“What’s wrong with that?” He Yuanyuan said.
“Although the two of you haven’t registered your marriage yet, your relationship has already been confirmed. When you’re outside, no matter what, you have to protect his identity and give him enough face. This is what a woman should do.”
“That’s true, but you don’t know Lin Yi.”
“He’s actually a person who looks low-key on the outside, but is proud inside. If we cheat to help him defeat Master Deng, he won’t be happy either.”
“So, should we just be honest?”
Ji Qingyan ran her fingers through her hair. “That’s right. Let’s just tell the truth. There’s no need to overthink so much.”
“Alright, I’ll do as you say.”
Just as the two of them finished speaking, Deng Wenlin walked out with two plates of egg-fried rice.
One plate was golden yellow, while the other plate carried a light fragrance of the cooking sauce. They gave off completely different visual feelings.
As for Ji Qingyan and He Yuanyuan, they were immediately able to determine who had made which serving of egg-fried rice.
The golden egg fried rice must have been made by Lin Yi.
This was exactly the same as the egg-fried rice he had made in the past, except that there were a little more ingredients.
The other one was from Deng Wenlin.
“These dishes were made by the two of us. Try both of them and see which tastes better.”
Because they had eaten Lin Yi’s cooking before, the two of them knew what it tasted like, so they planned to try Deng Wenlin’s cooking first.
He Yuanyuan took a spoon and tasted it. Just as she put it in her mouth, her eyes could not help but widen.
“Oh my god, Senior Sister, quickly try it. This plate of egg-fried rice is super delicious. It’s much better than the boss’s.”
Because she still remembered the taste of Lin Yi’s cooking and the fact that Ji Qingyan had asked her to tell the truth, He Yuanyuan did not hide anything.
Her taste buds and intuition told her that Deng Wenlin’s egg-fried rice was much better than Lin Yi’s.
It could even be to be on a whole other level and could not even be compared.
This was the difference between the system rewards.
Lin Yi’s cooking skills were all obtained from the sage’s wisdom. His level was only comparable to that of chefs from ordinary restaurants.
Compared to ordinary housewives, their standards were naturally higher.
However, there a big difference when compared to a state banquet master like Deng Wenlin.
It was natural for He Yuanyuan to give such an evaluation.
“Are you exaggerating?”
Even though He Yuanyuan had told her the truth, Ji Qingyan felt that she had gone overboard.
It was just a plate of egg-fried rice. No matter how delicious it was, it was impossible for it to taste that good.
“Senior Sister, I’m not fooling you. You’ll know after you try it.”
Ji Qingyan refused to believe it, so she picked up the spoon and had a taste.
Just like He Yuanyuan, the moment she put it in her mouth, she could taste the difference in the dish.
The taste was richer and the texture was more unique.
Rather than egg-fried rice, it was more like a whole other dish. It’s texture greatly exceeded what was conventionally possible for egg-fried rice.
Ji Qingyan frowned slightly. It did taste much better than Lin Yi’s cooking.
Ji Qingyan gave Lin Yi a disheartened look.
“It really does taste a little better than yours.”
Deng Wenlin looked at Lin Yi with a smile. This outcome was as he had expected.
The difference in skill between the two of them was not negligible. Thus, the dishes they made would naturally be very different.
He would not give them a chance to be biased.
“Mr. Lin, actually, you’re good at cooking. At the very least, when I was your age, I hadn’t reached this level yet. However, with my current level, my cooking is better than yours, so I advise you to change the price. The price of 189 yuan is indeed too high. Although there are many expensive ingredients inside, I think it’s more appropriate to price it at 88 or 98 yuan. I hope you can accept my suggestion.”
“The competition hasn’t ended yet. Why are you jumping to conclusions?”
Lin Yi pursed his lips. ‘As an antagonist, you really didn’t miss a single chance to mock me.’
“Didn’t your two friends already say that the egg-fried riceI made is better than yours? Are you objecting to this result?”
“They have indeed eaten my cooking before, but that’s from before. This plate of egg-fried rice is different from before, so the taste will naturally be different.”
“Boss…”
He Yuanyuan said softly, “Your egg-fried rice might have some expensive ingredients in it, but this won’t affect the taste. Let’s not insist. With Master Deng’s standard, there’s no shame in losing to him.”
He Yuanyuan’s words made sense.
Generally speaking, shredded meat fried rice and egg-fried rice were basically no different in taste. If the shredded meat was picked out, it would be the same as a plate of egg fried rice.
As a foodie, He Yuanyuan had a lot of experience in this subject.
“Don’t be in a rush to comment. Taste it first.”
He Yuanyuan pursed her lips and thought to herself,
“You really won’t turn back until you hit a concrete wall.”
Still, at the end of the day, he was her boss. He Yuanyuan gave him face and put a spoonful of rice into her mouth.
It was at this moment that He Yuanyuan felt that the entire world had lit up.
