The Spirit of Gourmet

Chapter 453 Tang Yu's Friend

"Whoo~"

Looking at the Tianzhou Hotel not far away, Cao Dongdong let out a soft sigh of relief, then turned to Qin Lang and the other two, "We've finally arrived."

"This hotel has a great location!" Zhao Qian said with delight, looking at the beach not far from the hotel. "It's right by the sea!"

"Hmph~" Cao Dongdong nodded smugly, "That goes without saying. With the scale of Tianzhou Hotel, the hotels in each city are located in the best locations. Taking a stroll on the beach in the evening must feel wonderful."

"Oh, right!" Cao Dongdong turned to Qin Lang with a warm smile on his face. "Qin Lang, I wasn't full just now."

"How about you show off your skills later?"

"You rascal." Qin Lang shook his head, both amused and exasperated.

They didn't eat much at Hai Ba Wang restaurant before the sudden disturbance occurred, and by the time they returned to their private room, the food had already gone cold.

No matter how delicious a dish is, it won't taste as good when it gets cold, let alone seafood that is made with fresh ingredients.

Disappointed, the group left without even having filled their stomachs.

"Now that you mention it, I'm a little hungry too." Qin Lang looked at Danbao and Lala, who were both agreeing. "Come to my room later."

"I'll just make something edible."

"Great!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Qian and Cao Dongdong immediately showed excited expressions, and even Tang Yu was very interested.

Although it had been a long time since they last met, if she remembered correctly, Qin Lang's cooking skills were excellent, at least much better than hers.

"Huh?" As they approached the hotel, Zhao Qian suddenly spotted a suspicious figure at the entrance. She couldn't help but tug at Qin Lang and whisper, "Why is that guy acting so furtively?"

"Could it be that the rare animal hunting team followed us?"

In the past, they had encountered the two members of the rare animal hunting team in every city they visited, and they had long realized that the other party was after the three of them.

Last time in Lanqiu City, due to a series of unexpected events, Qin Lang and the others forgot about the two members of the hunting team who had already fainted. By the time they returned to capture them, the two had already escaped.

So now when Zhao Qian sees those sneaky guys, she thinks they might be the two members of the treasure hunting team.

"It doesn't seem like it." Qin Lang frowned and examined the object.

The other person's figure was clearly female, but she was much taller than Lomi. She was wearing a baseball cap and her face was completely covered by sunglasses and a mask, which didn't seem like the style of the rare animal hunting team...

While Qin Lang was still pondering, he saw Tang Yu quietly approach the other person from behind and then slap him on the butt.

"ah!!!"

With a scream full of girlish charm, the woman who had been hiding jumped up on the spot. After seeing Tang Yu behind her, she immediately let out a complaining shout and went over to grab Tang Yu's hand.

"Is she Tang Yu's friend?" Qin Lang looked enlightened.

"Huh?" Zhao Qian couldn't help but secretly cover her mouth, then secretly put it down, thinking that Tang Yu probably hadn't heard her.

"I feel like you're pretty cunning too," Cao Dongdong couldn't help but tease, earning him a roll of the eyes from Zhao Qian.

On the other side, after exchanging a few words with the woman, Tang Yu pulled her towards Qin Lang and the other two, saying, "Let me introduce you. This is my friend from this area, named Fang Yifei."

"Hello~"

Fang Yifei took off her mask and greeted Qin Lang and the other two with a smile, "You're all probably younger than me, so just call me Sister Yifei."

"Hello, Sister Yifei~" The three of them spoke one after another, and then Zhao Qian couldn't help but ask, "Sister Yifei, why are you dressed like this at the hotel entrance?"

"Sigh~" Fang Yifei sighed deeply, "I asked Ayu in advance which hotel she wanted to stay at, planning to surprise her with a surprise visit."

"Who knew, I got a fright from this guy." As she spoke, Fang Yifei glanced at Tang Yu, the resentment in her eyes palpable even through her sunglasses. "As for why she's dressed like this..."

"Because I'm afraid of being recognized and causing unnecessary trouble." Fang Yifei sighed as she said this. "Maybe this is the trouble of being in the spotlight. Every time I'm recognized on the street, I'm surrounded by enthusiastic fans who ask for autographs and photos."

"Under the spotlight?" Zhao Qian's eyes widened. "Sister Yifei, are you a celebrity?"

“That’s right!” Fang Yifei nodded emphatically, then looked around and carefully took off her sunglasses.

Upon seeing Fang Yifei's complete face, Qin Lang and the other two immediately felt a sense of familiarity, with Cao Dongdong being the first to exclaim in surprise.

"I remembered!"

“We saw Sister Yifei's picture on the billboards we came across when we were on the sightseeing train!”

Upon hearing Cao Dongdong's words, Qin Lang and Zhao Qian also showed expressions of realization. It seemed that Fang Yifei in front of them was indeed a celebrity.

"Well, these are nothing to mention." Fang Yifei waved her hand.

"There are a lot of people, why don't we go up first and talk about it later?"
-
"Hmm~ delicious!"

Fang Yifei put a spoonful of fried rice into her mouth, feeling the aroma of eggs and the saltiness of rice bursting in her mouth and nose. Her pupils widened in shock, and she stuffed the rice into her mouth without regard for her eating manners, as if she hadn't eaten for days.

"Yifei, you weren't this greedy before!" Tang Yu, who was standing next to Qin Lang, couldn't help but ask while marveling at how amazing Qin Lang's cooking skills were. "What happened?"

"Sigh!" Fang Yifei sighed suddenly. "Don't even mention it. Being a celebrity requires maintaining a certain figure, and there are strict limits on how much you can eat at each meal."

"It's been so long since I've eaten like this...burp~" Fang Yifei let out a loud burp, slumped lazily in her chair, and gave Qin Lang a thumbs up.

"Qin Lang's cooking skills are amazing! This is absolutely the most delicious food I've ever eaten!"

"If you like it, Sister Yifei, eat more," Qin Lang said with a smile, then couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Speaking of which, Sister Tang Yu is a chef specializing in spirit food, and Sister Yi Fei is a celebrity. They don't live very close to each other, so how did you two meet?"

Upon hearing this question, Zhao Qian and Cao Dongdong both perked up their ears.

They were equally curious.

"We met at a battle of spirit chefs," Tang Yu said slowly as he finished the last mouthful of pork rib soup in his bowl.

"I see." Qin Lang nodded in realization. "So it was a battle of spirit chefs... huh?"

"A battle of spirit chefs?!"

Qin Lang and the other two looked at Fang Yifei, who was leaning back lazily, and asked, "Sister Yifei, you're a celebrity, and you're also a spirit chef?"

"Of course." Fang Yifei chuckled.

"Strictly speaking, I stepped onto the stage by chance after my match with Tang Yu, and my identity as a Spirit Chef has provided me with a lot of convenience in this regard!"

As she spoke, Fang Yifei excitedly picked up her phone, found something, and handed it to Qin Lang and the other two.

"Come, come, look!"
