A Top-Tier Life Begins with Sarcastic Phrases

Chapter 91 Which tastes better, green beans or pork knuckle?

The live stream room immediately became lively.

The number of online users and real-time popularity are both soaring, which is exactly what Wang Hailong wanted to see.

[It's here! It's here! The final episode of season one! Finally, we've reached my favorite part!]

[Gu Yun interviews Chef Huang: A tale of grudges and rivalries!]

I've been seeing so many videos of Gu Yun acting lately that I almost forgot he's a stand-up comedian.

[Chef Huang: Shaoxing wine connects to the brain, green beans replace thinking, let's begin the lesson!]

The director really knows how to keep people in suspense by scheduling these two for the final interview.

"Okay, let's begin the interview. We'll start with three questions."

Gu Yun pulled out a small notebook containing the interview questions the production team wanted him to answer: "First question, Teacher Huang, did you take on any endorsement deals for Shaoxing wine?"

Chef Huang touched the tip of his nose, a bad feeling creeping over him: "Why do you say that?"

Gu Yun: "Recently, Teacher Huang's video of stewing pork knuckle with Shaoxing wine has become very popular online. He stewed the pork knuckle with two catties of Shaoxing wine, and netizens are wondering if you've died from the effects of Shaoxing wine."

[Master of Rants +1]

Before the interview, Chef Huang was mentally prepared, but he still managed to get right to the point and start talking big!

I've already stopped trying to portray myself as a chef, why are you still chasing after me?

No, no.

Huang Xiaochu took a sip of tea to calm himself down: "I just figured it out on my own, researching it when I had nothing else to do."

"Oh, that's perfect, that's our second question."

Gu Yun waved the notebook in his hand: "Both dishes you researched, stir-fried green beans and braised pork knuckle in Shaoxing wine, which do you think tastes better?"

[Critical Hit! Master of Rants +2]

"————They're all delicious, they're all alright."

Chef Huang touched his nose; the mere mention of green beans made his stomach churn—it had become muscle memory for him.

"Which one tastes better?"

Chef Huang scratched his head:

Which one tastes better?

How would he know that?

He makes these bizarre dishes for other people to eat.

He himself is not He Ling, who has pica.

The last time he ate green beans, it was purely because He Ling tricked him; otherwise, he would never have touched those things even if you beat him to death.

"I think the program team's question is also wrong."

Seeing that Chef Huang was silent, Gu Yun said, "How would Teacher Huang know? Teacher Huang doesn't eat it. You'd have to ask the deceased."

[Critical Hit! Master of Rants +2]

"————" Chef Huang's face twitched, and after a long pause, he managed to stammer out, "This tea is good, Xiao Gu, how about you————"

Want something to drink?

He thought Gu Yun was trying to help him out of a tight spot, but this kid is being incredibly affectionate with him again!

It was the last episode, and Gu Yun didn't intend to go all out. He just asked the third question casually, since he had already achieved enough for the show's entertainment value.

Gu Yun took a sip of tea and said, "This tea is indeed very delicious, Professor Huang. Do you know anything about tea?"

"I wouldn't say I understand, but I've grasped some of the nuances."

This hit Huang Xiaochu right where it hurt, and he couldn't stop smiling. He brought the tea over just to show off and create a persona!

Seeing that Huang Xiaochu's mouth was filled with a strong fatherly flavor, Gu Yun immediately stopped!

But it was too late!

"As the old saying goes, tea is like life, and life is like tea; all the truths are contained in tea."

Chef Huang got excited, crossed his legs, and darted around with his eyes: "This tea is bitter at first sip, but it has a sweet aftertaste, which is the essence of 'bitterness before sweetness.'"

"You know the Sage of Tea, right? This Sage of Tea, Lu Yu, he—"

Ber, who asked you?

Gu Yun is numb. How can he dodge a zero-frame attack?

[I can't take it anymore, let me catch my breath, I'm dying of laughter.]

[Chef Huang: I love cooking, but I don't have pica!]

[Chef Huang may not know which dish is best, but Chef He certainly does.]

[He Ling: Speak up for me!]

Whether braised pork hock in Shaoxing wine is delicious or not is another matter, but Chef Huang seizes every opportunity to lecture us, and here we go again!

Gu Yun wanted to refute, but then he thought that his interview was over and he could leave.

Huang Xiaochu has really had a tough time lately, so let him ramble on here by himself.

Gu Yun got up and left.

"Hey, Gu, where are you going?"

Huang Xiaochu shouted, "If you leave, where am I supposed to show off?"

"Teacher Huang, I'm going to the restroom, you can continue your lecture."

Gu made an excuse to urinate and left.

But Huang Xiaochu has finally rediscovered his old style and doesn't want to stop!

Suddenly, he looked at the staff member who was watching the recording camera and smiled kindly: "Hey, this young man looks so energetic, what year were you born?"

Photographer: "Born in '93."

"Oh, born in '93, that's still a child. I've been able to give birth to you. Look at your white hair, life must have been tough for you."

Chef Huang took a sip of tea and sighed, "Life is tough for everyone. We come into this world naked and we leave naked. You should relax more and not be so obsessed with money."

The photographer was as helpless as a child, unsure whether to leave or stay.

"I could give birth to you? Holy crap, that's an outrageous statement!"

[Photographer: Teacher Gu, please come back soon.]

[Photographer: Teacher Huang, please shut up, don't force me to kneel down and beg you.]

Don't be obsessed with money. You're so rich, of course you don't care.

Why does everyone want to be a dad no matter where they go? I can't stand it!

"Hey, Xiao Gu, are you done with your interview?"

In the hotel lobby, He Ling and the others who were chatting looked at Gu Yun who suddenly walked in.

"Ah, yes, the interview is over."

Gu Yun sat down next to Tian Xiwei, eating a late-night snack while listening to Wang Hailong explain the entire filming process for tomorrow.

He Ling asked curiously, "What about Teacher Huang?"

"Oh, Teacher Huang~"

Gu Yun took a bite of the apple, crunchy and satisfying: "They were discussing life with the photographer, but I couldn't join in, so I came back first."

"Teacher Huang, you're really making things difficult for that photographer. Liangliang, go and call him over."

Jia Naliang got up to call Chef Huang.

"Brother Liang, promise me you'll come back for a late-night snack, okay?" Gu Yun said.

Jia Naliang waved his hand: "Calling someone won't take much effort."

Half an hour later, it was almost bedtime, and Kanara still hadn't returned.

When Gu Yun walked into the courtyard, he saw that Chef Huang was still talking, while Jia Naliang's eyes were lifeless and he was completely numb, like a walking corpse.

The comments section was filled with laughter.

[Only then did Jia Naliang remember the fear of being dominated by Chef Huang.]

[They may appear to still be here, but they've actually been gone for a while.]

[I'm so frustrated by Chef Huang!]

[Back in the day, my brother Liang always sang with a smile on his face during the New Year's Eve gala, but now he's been completely exhausted by Chef Huang.]

Upon seeing Gu Yun, Jia Naliang almost burst into tears: "Little Gu, why did you take so long to come!"

Gu Yun was helpless: "The director won't allow it."

It was precisely because the previous segment was so entertaining that Wang Hailong didn't allow anyone to interrupt.

There was no other way; to boost the show's popularity, they had to make things difficult for Kanara.
