Chapter 885: Chapter 885: Shameless!
Zhuang Mingyan couldn’t say anything.
She didn’t understand!
She just felt that Ye Fei was putting her in a difficult spot.
"I think you should go back and think about it yourself." Zhuang Mingyan said, "Do you need someone to tell you everything before you can understand?"
After speaking, Zhuang Mingyan didn’t want to give Ye Fei a chance to speak, and forcefully said, "Next!"
Ye Fei also wasn’t planning to continue confronting Zhuang Mingyan.
Instead, Luo Jialin was not willing to let Zhuang Mingyan off so easily.
She said to Zhuang Mingyan, "I also want to know where you think this dish falls short."
Zhuang Mingyan lifted her head in annoyance.
This Luo Jialin, is she never going to stop!
Zhuang Mingyan took a deep breath, "Okay, since you want me to say it, I’ll say it."
"This soup’s texture is too thick, not refreshing enough," Zhuang Mingyan said. "I remember just now, Yu Yingyan’s beef soup was praised by the chefs for being light and refreshing, not affecting the appetite and taste for upcoming dishes."
"But Ye Fei’s soup, its texture is a bit thick, and the flavor a bit too rich," Zhuang Mingyan said. "Wouldn’t that negatively impact the tasting of subsequent dishes? So I think Ye Fei’s soup is not as good as the judges say."
Guo Wenbo shook his head, and Ye Huasong said, "Regarding the points Miss Zhuang made, Ye Fei, what do you say?"
Ye Fei then replied, "This soup was only tried by the judges; the audience hasn’t tasted it. So whether it’s what I say or what Miss Zhuang says, the audience probably can’t judge well."
"However, I must say, this soup falls under the category of thick soups, but it isn’t overly so. Its texture is similar to milk tea; if it were too light, it couldn’t hold the mashed potatoes, which would sink." Ye Fei explained.
"The soup’s texture is slightly thicker, so I used the natural sweet and sour flavor of tomatoes to whet the appetite," Ye Fei explained, "I only added a small amount of crushed black pepper and parsley to the mashed potatoes, without heavy seasoning."
"It won’t overshadow the flavors of subsequent dishes," Ye Fei explained.
"What, are you suggesting that the audience should try your soup too?" Zhuang Mingyan sneered, "None of the contestants here have done that, so why should you be an exception?"
"Ye Fei, how can you have the nerve to say that?" Zhuang Mingyan sneered, "Why should you get special treatment? Is it because you’re different? Because your identity is special, you can receive preferential treatment here?"
"I’m quite curious, since the competition started, how many special treatments you have received." Zhuang Mingyan sarcastically remarked.
After speaking, Zhuang Mingyan shook her head again, "Forget it, talking about this now is pointless."
"But Ye Fei, I’ll just tell you, no matter how you’ve managed special treatment before, how the judges have assessed you—at my end, don’t expect any special treatment." Zhuang Mingyan said coldly.
"I won’t open special privileges for you just because of your relationship with the CEO of Changping Group," Zhuang Mingyan said.
Li Xiaoyun was boiling with anger below the stage.
"What special treatment has Ye Fei received!" Li Xiaoyun was almost ready to curse.
She suddenly turned her head and asked the little guy, "Kid, did you bring a megaphone?"
"I did!" The little guy nodded.
He was already too upset to eat because of Zhuang Mingyan’s words.
Now with empty hands, he directly took his backpack and pulled out a megaphone.
Zhao Dingli: "..."
Why did this little guy bring such a thing to watch the competition?
Zhao Dingli couldn’t help but wonder whether he should ask or not.
Before he could ask, he saw Li Xiaoyun take the megaphone and suddenly stand up.
She turned on the megaphone and shouted towards the stage, "Zhuang Mingyan, you were forced into the International Cooking Competition as a judge, criticizing a group of professional chefs, and still have the nerve to say Ye Fei is getting special treatment?"
"The one really getting special treatment is you, shameless!" Li Xiaoyun finished shouting, feeling relieved throughout her body.
Pleasantly letting out a breath, she sat back down.
She had long wanted to curse Zhuang Mingyan!
Shameless!
Even when Zhao Gushen is already married, Zhuang Mingyan is still thinking about him.
Although she couldn’t shout this out just now, having cursed her as shameless, Li Xiaoyun was already satisfied.
Zhuang Mingyan’s expression changed violently, going pale and flushed intermittently.
Initially, the audience was a bit dumbfounded by Zhuang Mingyan’s words, almost led astray by her.
Now after hearing Li Xiaoyun’s words, they all came to their senses.
Yeah.
Zhuang Mingyan doesn’t know anything, yet she criticizes a group of professional chefs.
Why should an ignorant person like her be a judge?
Isn’t it because she was forced in?
Ye Fei indeed has a relationship with Zhao Gushen as his wife.
But Ye Fei hasn’t received any special treatment for it, at least not that anyone has seen.
However, today, Zhuang Mingyan was forced in and behaving arrogantly, which everyone saw.
After Li Xiaoyun sat down, she still felt unsatisfied.
So she picked up the megaphone again and said, "You don’t know anything, making nonsense comments, and yet you don’t allow the contestant to let the audience say something fair?"
"Now I know, letting the audience say something fair is considered getting special treatment!" The megaphone volume was already loud, and Li Xiaoyun was shouting at the top of her lungs, making her voice extremely clear.
Li Xiaoyun was sitting right below the stage, very close.
So, she wasn’t worried the people on the stage couldn’t hear.
Li Xiaoyun feared the audience might not hear.
What she shouted was precisely to let the audience know who was making trouble.
Zhuang Mingyan said with a dark face, "Where is security? Someone is disturbing the order here, please escort the one disturbing the competition order out!"
The security didn’t know Li Xiaoyun, and the scene was getting a bit ugly.
This isn’t what a final competition is supposed to be like; it’s becoming a farce.
The security at the competition venue started coming over.
But seeing it’s an audience in the VIP seating, they were a bit hesitant.
It’s not about giving any preferential treatment to the VIP audience, allowing any disturbance.
But it’s because these tickets are all reserved by the Zhao Family.
The area where Li Xiaoyun is seated is the Zhao Family section.
It’s not open for public sale, all saved for the Zhao Family.
The rest of the VIP areas are open for public sale.
At this time, the rest of the areas were all filled with people.
Only the Zhao Family’s side had many empty seats, besides the Zhao Family members, the rest were empty.
And Li Xiaoyun, the only one not from the Zhao Family, was sitting there.
This made the security wonder how come?
They had no choice but to go forward and politely say, "This lady..."
"I don’t think what she said was wrong at all." Zhao Dingli spoke first.
Security couldn’t possibly not recognize Zhao Dingli, quickly calling out, "Mr. Zhao."
"Don’t worry, on our end, we absolutely won’t disrupt the competition order." Zhao Dingli said.
