Thousands of people disliked them, but after being reborn and correcting their mistakes, they regret

"Can."

"I'll stick with the same dish, I refuse to believe I'll lose!"

A tense atmosphere permeated the space between Ji Feng and Ji Yuzhi, thick with the smell of gunpowder.

"Why is the new guest targeting Ji Yuzhi right from the start?"

"Look at Ji Yuzhi's arrogant attitude, you just don't like him."

Ji Yuzhi first picked up a mushroom, savored it carefully, and then confidently declared, "This mushroom is roasted, and it's sprinkled with cumin and salt!"

Ji Feng also picked up a mushroom, tasted it, and said, "I can also tell that this dish is roasted. It not only contains cumin powder and salt, but also chili powder."

Ji Yuzhi: ! You actually mentioned one more seasoning than I did.

Ji Feng glanced at Ji Yuzhi with disdain before quickly looking away.

However, Ji Yuzhi still discovered that this newcomer dared to provoke him again and again!

After listening to their comments, the resident who was scoring said to them, "You two are both right. Since this gentleman mentioned the roasting method and the addition of cumin powder and salt first, even though the other gentleman mentioned chili powder, this round is still a draw."

After listening, Ji Yuzhi raised his chin and looked at Ji Feng, as if to say: Little brat! So what if you said more than me? It's still a draw!

Ji Feng gritted his teeth. If he had known the rules were like this, he would have spoken up first. The production team actually let that idiot Ji Yuzhi tie with him. Anyone could tell at a glance that the mushroom was roasted and sprinkled with cumin powder, while the chili powder was sprinkled on the other side. It was only slightly spicy and you had to taste it carefully to taste it. Was the tie a sign that they suspected he used Ji Yuzhi's answer?

Ji Feng asked calmly, "So what do we do now? Choose another dish?"

The judge shook his head: "No, you didn't tell us the most essential and core method of making this dish. Whoever tells us first wins. Here's a hint: what ingredients were used to roast these mushrooms?"

Ji Yuzhi was completely baffled. What materials should be used for baking? It's just baking in a pot, either with gas or electricity.

No, since he said that, it definitely wasn't roasted in a pot, it should be roasted on a grill. He was asking about the materials used to start the fire.

Ji Yuzhi was unusually clever, but Ji Feng was even smarter and spoke first: "Use grass."

This is a vast grassland, and there's hardly any timber in sight; all Ji Feng can think of is grass.

Ji Yuzhi mocked mercilessly: "What do you mean by 'using grass'? Do you have any common sense? Grass burns in seconds!"

Don't ask Ji Yuzhi how she knows this, because in the last episode, when Ji Yuzhi used the oven, she was too lazy to chop firewood, so she pulled up some dry grass from the chicken coop to start a fire, and it burned down in just a few seconds.

"You!" Ji Feng's expression darkened. He never expected to be humiliated time and time again by this idiot in front of him.

Lin Ke watched the show from the sidelines, secretly hoping the two would fight.

Remembering that Xu Fan was still nearby and he needed to maintain his facade, Ji Feng took a deep breath and gave a gentle smile: "I admit I lack common sense. I'll try it again."

As he spoke, he picked up another piece of mushroom and put it in his mouth. Seeing this, Ji Yuzhi objected and also picked up a few pieces of mushroom and stuffed them into his mouth: "You've already eaten several pieces! That's not fair!"

Ji Feng was also a little angry, and his pretense could no longer be hidden: "How am I supposed to know what it was made of if I don't eat it!"

And so, the two of them fought over it and ended up eating the whole plate of roasted mushrooms, leaving the two children no chance to even have a taste.

As Ji Yuzhi tasted them, he noticed that in addition to the natural flavor of mushrooms, the roasted mushrooms also had a fresh grassy aroma. Could it be, as the newcomer had said, that they were indeed roasted with grass?

But when he said he roasted it with grass, the grader didn't say he was right, so that's not the real answer. It shouldn't be grass; it should be...

"Leaves!"

Ji Yu slammed his hand on the table, almost jumping up, his face full of excitement.

He thought he was incredibly smart.

Ji Feng was almost laughing in anger, and sneered from the side, "Someone else is talking even more ridiculously than me. Where are there any trees here? And where would you get any leaves?"

"Tch! You're just jealous that I gave the correct answer. Can't you just bring some leaves from somewhere else?"

The scorer stopped the argument, shaking his head: "You're both wrong."

"It's definitely just grass and leaves; I can taste the grass in it!"

"I can taste it too."

The two temporarily put aside their fight, both curious about what this mysterious material was.

The evaluator grinned wickedly: "Why can you taste the grass? That's because... these roasted mushrooms are cooked using dried cow dung as fuel. Some of the grass wasn't digested before being excreted by the roaster, so of course it will taste like grass..."

"Yue!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Ji Feng couldn't help but run to the side and dry heave.

He actually ate half a plate of mushrooms roasted with cow dung! That's practically the same as him eating shit!

That's disgusting! When did he ever eat shit?!

Ji Yuzhi scoffed at his gagging: "Look at you, using cow dung as fuel, you haven't even touched the excrement, is it really that big of a deal?"

The evaluator replied with a smile, "Of course, because this roasted mushroom dish is made by roasting mushrooms directly on burning dry cow dung, giving it a unique and refreshing flavor."

"What did you say?! Yue!!!" Ji Yuzhi's pupils shrank suddenly, and he ran to the opposite side of Ji Feng and began to gag.

He really ate shit! Cow shit! And so much of it! It's all Ji Feng's fault. He was only supposed to eat one piece, but he insisted on taking it!

The two of them stood on opposite sides, vomiting so badly they were oblivious to the world around them.

With someone laughing beside her and the topic of feces being discussed during the meal, Lin Ke, who was eating, had lost her appetite.

Lin Ke was speechless: "Are there any dishes on the table made with cow dung or other animal excrement?"

The grader shook his head: "No more, no more, just that one..."

Pei Yin patted his chest, thankfully he hadn't eaten mushrooms. With so much meat, of course he wouldn't eat vegetarian food.

Xu Fan looked thoughtfully at the plate of roasted mushrooms with only a few scraps left. He learned something new: cow dung could be used to roast things, and it even had a fresh grassy aroma, although he didn't get a chance to taste it.

"Hahahaha! The production team is still as sarcastic as ever!"

"It's because they all wanted to choose the simplest dish."

"Damn it, I can't stand it anymore! It's made of cow dung, I can't even stand hearing about it..."

"My hometown is there. Not only can we roast mushrooms, but also potatoes, chives...it smells amazing! And the dried cow dung is so clean!"

"Stop, stop, stop! Baozi, don't say anymore! I've lived in the countryside too. Before cow dung dries, it's runny and smelly!"

"Netizens get really into it and lose themselves when they talk about poop and pee."

"Did you even consider that I'm still eating?"

"Fanfan, what's with that regretful look on your face?"

The two vomited for a while before they came to their senses. Ji Yuzhi vomited on Xu Fan's side. Xu Fan saw that he looked exhausted and pale, as if he could barely stand. She felt sorry for him, so she poured him a glass of water in a disposable cup and handed it to him.

Ji Yuzhi stared in shock at the water in front of him, then turned his head and saw that Xu Fan had handed it to him. He quickly took it with both hands, as if holding a precious treasure.

"Thank you, Xu Fan, you're so kind..." Ji Yuzhi was deeply moved; Fanfan had actually poured him water!

Xu Fan replied calmly, "You're welcome."

Ji Yuzhi quickly brought the cup to his lips and took a small sip.

Mmm! Even the plain water that Fanfan pours out tastes sweet!

Lin Ke's lips twitched. Looking at Ji Yuzhi's infatuated, smitten expression, she impatiently whispered, "Get lost! Stop being so self-absorbed. Even a thirsty dog ​​would get water from Xu Fan!"

Ji Yuzhi was furious after hearing Lin Ke's words and was about to explode when she suddenly remembered something. Her eyes darted around, and she pouted, putting on a pitiful look as she looked at Xu Fan: "Xu Fan, look at him..."

Xu Fan was looking down at a dish on her plate, carefully considering its ingredients, and didn't hear Ji Yuzhi's voice at all.

Ji Yuzhi felt a little embarrassed. Xu Fan ignored him, so he took the glass of water and left.

Ji Yuzhi returned to his seat, and Ji Feng, having finished vomiting, also returned to his seat, his gaze filled with undisguised mockery.

Ji Yuzhi rolled his eyes. So what if Xu Fan ignored him? Xu Fan didn't mean it; he just didn't hear. After all, Xu Fan poured water for him!

Ji Yuzhi picked up the glass of water and sipped it slowly, glancing at Ji Feng after each sip.

Ji Feng: I should have known he threw up at Xu Fan's place! That way Xu Fan could have gotten him some water!

Pei Yin, caught between the two: ...

Could you ask him to move to another seat? One person was sucking on something like a dog, making disgusting noises, while another person glared at him with hatred and anger. Although it wasn't directed at him, he could still sense it. He just wanted to eat properly! Eat more meat; if he didn't eat now, who knew if he'd have any left for the next three days!

Gu Linyuan, who had finally managed to steal a moment of leisure from his busy schedule, was devastated.

Earlier, another senior of Xu Fan came. He was busy with work at the time and could only listen to what the new guest was saying. He seemed to be very familiar with Xu Fan and even asked Xu Fan to take good care of him on the show. Xu Fan also said hello to the senior!

He sensed a sense of crisis. Through his observation, Xu Fan ignored the burly man named Ji Yuzhi, but treated the woman named Lin Ke very well, extremely well! Lin Ke even hugged him and touched his face, and he smiled and did not resist. Therefore, he believed that his only rival in love was Lin Ke.

Judging from the new guests' attitude towards Xu Fan and Xu Fan's answers, he feels that he has gained another competitor.

But he can't leave! Grandpa won't tell him Xu Fan's address either, and he's even blocked him! It seems he'll have to go to Grandpa's house when he has time. If Grandpa won't tell him, he'll have to find him himself.

Fu Qingci was watching the show the whole time, leaving all the work to his assistant. The assistant's hands were practically sparking from operating the computer. He wouldn't have worked there if President Fu hadn't promised to give him a raise!

But Mr. Fu is so strange. Although he was wearing Bluetooth headphones and we couldn't hear what he was looking at, he was so unpredictable, sometimes smiling so gently and sometimes furious. It was really terrifying!

Fu Qingci was initially in a good mood and mocked Ji Yuzhi and Ji Feng for eating mushrooms roasted with cow dung, but now he's in a bad mood.

It wasn't because Xu Fan poured water for Ji Yuzhi. He knew his Fanfan was kind; he was just pouring water for someone who wasn't feeling well, and he wasn't jealous. What angered him was that Ji Yuzhi looked at Xu Fan with that kind of gaze and a sly smile because Xu Fan poured him water. He wondered what Ji Yuzhi was imagining. Did he think that Xu Fan poured him water because he liked him?

That Ji Feng isn't a good person either. Fanfan is afraid of him, but he keeps trying to get close to her!

Neither of them gave the correct answer, but the outcome was still undecided, so the production team asked them to choose another dish.

Ji Yuzhi carefully selected the dishes. Although the production team had said that there were no other dishes related to feces on the table except for the roasted mushrooms, the shadow of the roasted mushrooms was deeply imprinted in his mind, and he felt that he would not want to eat roasted food for a while.

So he chose a seemingly ordinary noodle dish. Although it looked rather plain, he discovered something special after tasting it. It was sticky and gooey, as if it had mashed potatoes added.

He confidently described his method, and the evaluator gave him 70 points. Although he did add mashed potatoes, he didn't mention many of the seasonings, spices, and a few side dishes.

Ji Yuzhi was initially very dissatisfied, but when he heard that there were still so many materials he hadn't discovered, he accepted it.

Ji Feng also dared not choose any barbecue food. He randomly picked a bowl that looked like meat. After taking a bite, he said it was stewed mutton, but it was actually stewed mutton offal. Many ingredients were not mentioned, but he did mention some of the seasonings and side dishes that were added. The scorer reluctantly gave him 60 points.

After the scoring, Ji Feng sat silently in his seat. He knew without a doubt that Ji Yuzhi was mocking him again.

"My goodness, I never expected that Ji Yuzhi would win in the end."

"Why is he treating the new guest like that? It's practically bullying him."

"? I'm not a fan of Ji Yuzhi. Wasn't it Ji Feng who tried to take the food from him first?"

"Last time he knew nothing about cooking, but this time he actually knows so many ingredients and spices. It seems he's put in a lot of effort when he got back."

"He can only eat, not cook. I think he'll still make something as awful as dog shit."

Next was Pei Yin, who was smarter and chose to drink.

Actually, this was a loophole they exploited. The production team only said to choose from the table, not that you couldn't choose drinks.

It was a glass of white liquid, like milk, but it tasted a bit like alcohol.

Pei Yin took a sip and said, "This is mare's milk wine. It's made by fermenting fresh mare's milk with yeast and then filtering it."

The scorer was shocked, not expecting him to be so accurate, and immediately gave him 85 points.

Why was Pei Yin able to speak so accurately? Because on the surface he was a glamorous idol, but in his previous group, he was under a lot of pressure due to various opinions, and sometimes he would drown his sorrows in alcohol. He had tasted mare's milk wine before.

"Isn't he an idol? Can idols drink alcohol?"

"No, more importantly, he knows how it's made; he's probably drunk quite a lot of it..."

"Idols are people too, adults, of course they can drink, and the alcohol content is definitely very low, why are we so strict with them?"

"Anyway, the image of him as an obedient person in my mind has been shattered."

Pei Yin only realized after he finished speaking that he, as an idol, had actually been drinking on the show! And the details he gave just now clearly indicated that he had drunk quite a bit.

It's all his fault for being too focused on scoring and forgetting about this. But it's good that way; the personality he presents to the audience is completely different from his real personality. He's had enough of always being a good boy, so he can just go back and get scolded by his manager.

Lin Ke chose a mutton bun. He hadn't cooked since he went back last time, nor did he have the time to cook. He didn't usually think about the ingredients and cooking methods when he ate. However, Xu Fan had told him how to make noodles before, so at least he explained how to make the bun dough and the ingredients for the filling. He could only taste that there was salt in the seasoning, so he barely got a score of 65.

Lin Ke felt that the score was acceptable, since there were people who scored lower than him anyway.

Finally, it was Xu Fan's turn, and he chose a soup.

The soup is milky white, and you can't tell anything from its appearance alone.

But after tasting a few bites, Xu Fan accurately identified the ingredients: oxtail, chicken leg, fish maw, sea cucumber, and mushrooms. He also described the added seasonings and the cooking time.

The evaluator nodded in satisfaction and gave Xu Fan a score of 95.

Fu Chun and Lin Ke were both happy for him, as he ranked first in the score.

Fu Chun: "Xu Fan, you're awesome! We get to choose our house first again!"

Lin Ke: "How come you're so amazing, Xu Fan? If I don't like the place, I'll have to come stay at your place!"

Xu Fan smiled and replied, "Okay."

The comments were all positive.

"Fanfan's sense of taste is so sensitive!"

"If only I had the ability to crack the recipe with just one bite, I could just steal the secret formula."

"But you don't have it, while Fanfan does."

Everyone was happy for him, but Xu Fan himself couldn't be happy and felt depressed.

He had never eaten sea cucumbers or oxtails before because he didn't have the money and couldn't bear to buy them. He could cook them, but he definitely wouldn't be able to taste the difference.

Moreover, many of the ingredients in that pot of soup had already been stewed into mush, so you couldn't tell them from the soup.

Xu Fan was able to tell the difference because after he started working at Fu Qingci's company, Fu Qingci always fed him delicious food, food he had never eaten before, including seafood such as sea cucumber. She would patiently explain to him what it was and what its effects were...

That's why he was able to taste the ingredients in the soup. The soup had a very light flavor. Xu Fan took a sip and felt that Brother Fu would definitely like it. He drank a lot of it during the meal, thinking about how to make it so that he could stew it for Brother Fu when he got back.

Is this what it feels like to like someone?

Even when he's not around, I'll think of him because of all sorts of things around me.
