A Top-Tier Life Begins with Sarcastic Phrases

[Haha, "This dish has power," Gu Yun is killing me with laughter.]

[Gu Yun: Liang-ge, are you just naturally quiet?]

[Yanara: Shut up, swallow it!]

[The way Jia Naliang's eyes went from initial confusion to utter despair almost made me laugh so hard I turned into a folding screen.]

[So that's what "crab-racing" means? Gu Yun's words are absolutely deadly!]

[Help! Am I the only one who's smitten by Gu Yun's looks? Oh my god, his profile picture is absolutely stunning!]

……

The live stream was very popular, but Wang Hailong had a headache.

Originally, this welcome banquet was meant to clear Chef Huang's name, but it only made things worse.

"Gu Yun's mouth is truly poisoned."

Wang Hailong said with a wry smile, "Huang Xiaochu's biggest opponent on his road to redemption is Gu Yun's mouth."

The assistant chuckled, "Then how about we intervene a bit from the sidelines? Get Mr. Gu to tone it down?"

"No need," Wang Hailong shook his head. "The more we interfere, the more netizens will think there's a problem. Let nature take its course."

Seeing that Chef Huang's face had darkened, Jia Naliang closed his eyes, swallowed the egg in his mouth, and gave a thumbs-up with both hands:

"This dish is delicious, the aftertaste is unforgettable!"

Gu Yun: "Yeah, eat as much as you like. All the crab meat is yours, Liang-ge."

[King of Jokes +1]

Jia Naliang's face turned green instantly: "Well... everyone should try it. This dish is delicious, I can't enjoy it all by myself."

No one ignored him.

Just now, Jia Naliang looked so pathetic after taking a single bite of food. Who would want to suffer like that?

"Try it all. Everyone's taste is different. Some people like salty food, while others like it less salty. Some people may find the same dish delicious, while others may find it just okay."

Chef Huang personally stepped down to recommend the dishes, his gaze automatically bypassing Gu Yun and locking onto Tian Xiwei next to him: "Come on, everyone, try them. Saint Cloth, Mai Mai, Yang Zi, and Xiao Tian."

Several people were named, so it wouldn't be right not to give Chef Huang face.

Everyone was very supportive, picking up a small piece of egg and feeding it to them.

"How is it?" Chef Huang asked expectantly.

"Mmm...delicious!"

Tian Xiwei chewed and swallowed. Her eyebrows twitched together as she took the first bite, and she held her breath to barely swallow it.

Once Chef Huang looked away, Tian Xiwei quickly drank several gulps of water, stuck out her pink tongue, and whispered in Gu Yun's ear, "It tastes awful!!"

Gu Yun: "Do you still think netizens are just making jokes?"

Foodie Tian Xi pouted and muttered softly, "I was so excited when I came here, sigh..."

Huang Shengyi's expression changed slightly, but he managed to swallow it and even said it was delicious.

Merlin was speechless. He took a big gulp of coconut chicken soup and just nodded.

Yang Zi put down his chopsticks and calmly took a few sips of tea: "Delicious food!"

Gu Yun glanced at it and found that Yang Zi's acting skills were actually the best, even better than Huang Shengyi, who had been nominated for Best Newcomer at the Hundred Flowers Awards for his role in "Kung Fu".

Jia Naliang glanced at the "crab" whose height had hardly changed, and breathed a sigh of relief, finally relieved that he wouldn't have to suffer anymore.

Unexpectedly, a voice drifted from the other side of the table: "Brother Liang, you said you'd finish Teacher Huang's crab-like dishes. It's time for you to keep your promise."

[Critical Hit! King of Jokes +2!]

Jia Naliang turned his head and met Gu Yun's innocent gaze. His CPU was practically smoking, and his tongue was swirling in his mouth, unsure of what to say.

silence.

silence.

silence.

(Non-still image)

The chat exploded!

[Note: This is not a still image!]

[Ya Nara: Speak up, you shut-up! Speak up!]

[Nara: I've never felt this awkward, not even when I sang with Ruka at a New Year's Eve party back then.]

[I have to admit, Gu Yun's words are incredibly powerful, capable of silencing the cheerful Nara!]

[Another game-winning shot! Oh my god, I really want to see Gu Yun film an episode of (Departure 2). His pairing with Shen Teng would be hilarious!]

……

Chef Huang was already dissatisfied with Huang Shengyi and the others' "performance," and seeing Jia Nara's expression only made him feel worse.

"What's going on today? Did someone put a mute drug in this dish?"

Chef Huang didn't believe the dish was that bad, so he picked up his chopsticks and took a bite himself.

嚼，

吞，

After putting down his chopsticks, Chef Huang touched the tip of his nose:

"Hmm, it tastes alright. It's probably because these are free-range eggs; they're a bit fishy, ​​so the flavor isn't quite right. Liangliang, you shouldn't eat it."

Jia Naliang felt reborn, but before he could even rejoice, Chef Huang had already placed a piece of green bean into his bowl:

"Come on, try this stir-fried green beans with pork. These green beans are tender, and to keep them fresh, I cooked them last."

Jia Naliang reluctantly picked up a green bean and put it in his mouth. He couldn't possibly make the same mistake twice in a row, could he?

Chef Huang: "How is it?"

Jia Naliang only chewed one bite, then swallowed it all, soup and all. The taste wasn't strange, but his stomach cramped a little.

"Mmm, delicious! The green beans are so tender and juicy, they're absolutely fantastic!"

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Zi, Huang Shengyi, and Mailin all picked up their chopsticks. With Jia Naliang having cleared the way, the three of them ate with peace of mind: "The taste is indeed quite good."

Chef Huang only stewed one Wenchang chicken for the coconut chicken, which was quickly devoured by the seven people, leaving everyone feeling quite hungry.

He Ling didn't move. He had already become stressed about green beans after the incident at the Mushroom House, and for some reason, he felt that Jia Naliang's words sounded familiar.

Chef Huang called out to Tian Xiwei, "Xiao Tian, ​​why don't you all try some?"

Tian Xiwei wanted to try some, but this sweet, food-loving girl only ate a little bit and wasn't full yet, but Gu Yun stopped her:

"Um, I seem to remember that eating very young green beans can cause problems, right?"

Gu Yun's words caused the four people across from him, who were happily eating, to tremble and stop what they were doing.

He Ling: "It's okay. It's only a problem if the green beans are too old. I have experience with that."

Yang Zi, Jia Naliang, Mai Lin, and Huang Shengyi continued their pleasant meal, with Mai Lin not forgetting to give Gu Yun a sidelong glance:

"If you don't want to eat, can you please not bother us? Have some manners."

Gu Yun didn't say anything more. Xiao Tian hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't touch the green beans. She felt that what Gu Yun said seemed to make sense.

Chef Huang was very satisfied and got up again to cut Jia Nailiang a piece of mutton: "Come on, Liangliang, try this roast meat again. The whole roasted lamb is so delicious!"

"Mmm, the grilled meat smells delicious." Jia Naliang chewed for a while. "It's so chewy!"

"Isn't it delicious? Everyone should order some. This meat with a bit of sinew is the best part."

Chef Huang continued cutting, giving everyone a piece of mutton, except for Gu Yun: "Little Gu, you're a child with strength, do it yourself."

Gu Yun glanced at Jia Naliang, who was still chewing on the piece of meat, and his cheeks started to ache. He waved his hand and said, "I'll pass. I don't have good teeth and I can't eat rubber bands."

[Perfect critical hit! King of jokes +4!]
