"The hospital?" Su Ze took a few seconds to react and said, "Is it the certificate you need to get a replacement health certificate?"

“Hmm.” Erina Nakiri nodded. “A blood test or something, it’s very simple.”

“Okay.” Su Ze thought for a moment and realized that only his own identity was suitable for accompanying Erina Nakiri to the hospital.

The scene of the preliminary round.

I handled the follow-up matters.

Erina Nakiri asked her grandfather, Senzaemon Nakiri, to help take care of Arisawa and Rina, and then went with Suze to the best hospital in the area.

However, the other organizer of this Food Soul Competition is facing a dilemma.

Yes.

The Food Soul Competition is not organized by a single entity.

In the early days, the Nakiri family dominated the entire Food Soul Tournament, but the Nakiri family bore the entire financial burden of each tournament.

Organizing competitions alone would be a losing proposition for the entire business.

For two consecutive years, the Nakiri family suffered losses, but with such a large and wealthy family, they didn't care about losing money. Nakiri Senzaemon wasn't in it for the sake of making money.

The third year.

Some people want to join this Food Soul Competition.

At first, the Food Soul Competition had a lukewarm reputation outside the industry, but it had a certain reputation within the culinary world, so no one was willing to cooperate. However, after being held for two consecutive years, its reputation outside the industry gradually grew, and it became a culinary competition of considerable scale in Japan.

People from TV stations wanted to join.

Senzaemon Nakiri initially disagreed, but the other party's terms were quite good. They not only covered all the funding for the entire competition, but also helped promote the dishes and chefs who prepared them.

Go promote the food.

This is a very good virtuous cycle.

Some chefs cook very well, but their fame never really rises. They are only known in a very small circle. These chefs are usually unknown underground chefs.

Senzaemon Nakiri's evaluation of a dish can quickly enhance a chef's reputation, but this also takes time to develop.

It's about starting with the chef's own culinary circle and gradually spreading to the entire food industry, letting food lovers and food enthusiasts know that such a person exists.

But none of these can achieve the same speed as a phenomenal viral marketing tool.

They received promotion from the television station.

Even ordinary people who don't understand or like food will know that there is such a chef.

Within the entire culinary world, only the reputation of "God's Tongue" can still achieve this level of promotion. However, Erina Nakiri has been retired for so long that the reputation of "God's Tongue" has long become a legend.

Television stations play a particularly important role in promoting chefs.

Senzaemon Nakiri is an idealistic and ambitious person. He hopes to discover some talented people who have been buried, and he also hopes that everyone who has an attitude towards cooking and can do things seriously can fill their stomachs with the skill of cooking.

then.

The third year of the Food Soul Competition.

They announced a partnership with the local television station.

The top four this year.

With the strong promotion of the TV station, they were known as the Four Heavenly Kings of Food Souls. They went from being unknown to becoming well-known figures in the culinary world. In a short period of time, except for the one who won the championship and directly obtained the certificate of a special chef, the other three also obtained the certificate of a special chef in just a few months.

For a time, its restaurants were unparalleled in popularity.

The Nakiri family holds such a prestigious position in the culinary world.

His attitude towards life and dealing with others is inseparable from that of the old man, Senzaemon Nakiri.

but.

This put the TV station in an awkward position.

The live broadcast was over, and the recorded content needed to be edited into a food program. However, the topic of this episode didn't generate as much buzz as expected before the competition.

What were the hype tactics used before the match?

The return of the Tongue of God.

They're using Erina Nakiri as a gimmick.

However, the content of the show cannot revolve around the judges; it should focus more on the contestants, which is the main theme of the show.

The problem is that everyone's performance was suppressed in this episode.

Erina Nakiri's aura is unmatched; no one could pass her test, which makes the quality of this season's contestants seem quite ordinary. And to make matters worse, this season's contestants don't generate much buzz either.

then.

This led to a situation where the guest overshadowed the host.

The contestants, who were initially intended to be the main focus of the auditions, were not as prominent as the judges who played a supporting role.

The most arrogant thing is.

Erina Nakiri is not the only one who has 'stole the show'.

Her husband, Nakiri Sawa, also frantically tries to steal the spotlight.

This left the TV station that was helping to promote the food dumbfounded.

A perfectly good food talent show, a competitive program that makes contestants famous.

Why are all the main shots of the judges showing off their affection?

Who was this genius photographer who took this picture?

How do you edit this?

......

Chapter 43 Preparing for a Third Child?

Juntendo Hospital, Tokyo.

Hospital corridor.

"It's been a long time, you two." He Shanhua greeted the two people she met.

The two people who were called to stop froze in place.

We met a stranger at the hospital, but she seemed to know us very well.

"Is this your third pregnancy?" He Shanhua said with a smile. "In this era of low birth rates, couples like you are rare."

Su Ze and Erina Nakiri both inwardly coughed up blood.

People made fun of things they had never experienced before.

Could it be the doctor who treated me when I gave birth at the hospital before?

Out of the corner of her eye, Erina Nakiri noticed the work badge hanging on Hana Tsuruyama's chest and said with composure, "Dr. Tsuruyama, I'm here for a routine health check."

"Oh, oh, oh, you already have a third child, are you preparing for a third?" He Shanhua said with a sudden realization. If it is to prepare for a third child, then it is indeed necessary to have a physical examination in advance.

A mother's health has a direct impact on her child.

Erina Nakiri's elegance is already out of control. What's wrong with doctors these days?

You guys have a problem.

Why is your mind full of strange thoughts?

"Dr. Heshan, we've taken very good precautions. A third pregnancy is out of the question. Raising two children is already quite a burden. This checkup is to obtain a health certificate as proof of eligibility," Su Ze calmly stepped forward to defuse the awkward situation.

There are some things that Erina Nakiri finds difficult to talk about; they are rather awkward topics.

Let him bear the pain.

"Oh, is that so?" He Shanhua nodded and said, "I'm sorry, I thought you were preparing for your third child. Well, I have something to do, so I'll be going now."

Erina Nakiri and Suze both breathed a sigh of relief.

They escaped another disaster.

The two of them first went to have their blood drawn and went through all the required items and indicators for the health certificate.

The results of the blood test depend on what was drawn from the blood.

Some results are available immediately, while others take several days. For example, blood glucose results are available immediately, blood routine and blood gas analysis results are available in about ten minutes, myocardial enzyme results are available in about half an hour, and blood culture results are generally available in three to five days. Therefore, the time it takes for different items to get results varies.

Erina Nakiri conducted a more thorough examination.

It will take another day to get the results.

"Is it time to go home?" Su Ze asked, stretching after a busy day.

He's so tired.

First, he accompanied Erina Nakiri to events, and then he accompanied her to the hospital.

"If there's nothing else, we should be going home," Erina Nakiri nodded and said.

"By the way, which light novels have you been reading? I think there's a big problem with them." Su Ze brought up the previous matter. "Don't take light novels too seriously."

"Didn't you recommend this light novel?" Erina Nakiri asked, frowning. Su Ze had recommended it to her, then told her not to take it seriously.

"You can use the lovey-dovey scenes from light novels, but don't copy the character settings," Su Ze said with a headache.

"Why?" Erina Nakiri asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Light novels and romance novels are all written to pander to otaku, do you understand pandering to otaku?" Su Ze emphasized his choice of words: "Do you know who writes light novels? They are written by male authors."

"And novels written by male authors are often pandering to otaku in order to cater to the market. In the light novels you read, aren't all the female protagonists exceptionally kind to the male protagonist?"

"I admit I envy the male protagonists in light novels. They can be aloof and still be pursued by countless girls. But when it comes to feelings, they are interdependent. If you are good to me, I will definitely be good to you in return."

“Imitating the behavior of the female protagonist in light novels is actually a disadvantage for you.” Su Ze is a straightforward person, and he could have easily kept these things to himself.

“We generally refer to these inexplicable acts of developing feelings for someone and then actively offering themselves to them as ‘giving away freebies,’” Su Ze said thoughtfully.

"Don't imitate the women in those light novels," Su Ze warned.

Erina Nakiri always felt that Su Zeyan was implying something.

Soon, an angry symbol shaped like a '#' appeared next to her head.

"You mean I'm giving it away for free?" Erina Nakiri had already figured it out.

"Otherwise what? Why else would you be so nice to me for no reason? You must have been reading too many light novels. I was quite flattered this afternoon," Su Ze said strangely.

Erina was so nice to him today.

The real Erina should be someone who curses a few times when nothing's wrong and throws a couple of punches when things get heated, right?

"My kindness to you is just a pretense of a loving couple!" Erina Nakiri offered her classic reason. "Besides, you just said that if I'm kind to you, you have to be kind to me too."

“Then where is your proof?” Erina Nakiri found the loophole in Su Ze’s statement and said directly, “You haven’t proven this yet.”

“Our apparent marital relationship has always been something I’ve been working hard to maintain.” Erina Nakiri stared at Su Ze with her bright eyes, her tone questioning.

"Well... the main problem is that you'll laugh if I say it." Su Ze hasn't been completely idle these past few days. Ever since he learned about the curse of the God Tongue, he's been secretly watching cooking shows every night and even studying cooking techniques in secret.

The problem is, his wife, Erina Nakiri, is at the top of the industry. If she finds out that he's learning to cook, he'll definitely be ridiculed and laughed at.

At least, when you have even a little bit of skill.

It would be better to bring this up again.

"Tch, you didn't do anything and just made up an excuse, did you?" Erina Nakiri said, shrugging.

"Why do you have to argue with me?" Su Ze said, rubbing his forehead slightly. "Well, I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you. These days, I've been learning how to cook, but it's been incredibly difficult to even get started. I have absolutely no idea how those famous chefs manage to make their dishes both beautiful and delicious."

Learn to cook?

Erina Nakiri suddenly froze.

"Aren't you an e-sports player? Why are you suddenly learning to cook?" Erina Nakiri asked curiously.

"Why ask so many questions? Aren't you annoying?" Su Ze rolled his eyes. "Just think of it as wishful thinking on my part, a dream of satisfying the desires of the God's Tongue."

"You can laugh if you want."

"Anyway, I've been laughed at before."

The curse of the God Tongue is truly worrying.
