After being reborn in a parallel world, Qin Yi came to Rainbow City. She bound a Food Blind Box Stall System. At first, it was just random draws for time and location tasks, but later, even the foo...
Yu Niannian coaxed her grandfather to eat, saying, "After you finish this bowl of rice, I'll call Sister Haoyun and ask her where she went."
Upon hearing his granddaughter's words, Grandpa Yu ate two meals in three.
She wolfed down the bowl of rice in front of her, then immediately wiped her mouth clean and looked obediently at her granddaughter: "Okay, now call and ask!"
Yu Niannian shook her head helplessly. Grandpa is old but his stomach is still young.
She took out her phone and dialed Qin Yi's number.
...
After a long wait, the message "The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later" appears.
I've tried calling several times and it's always the same notification sound.
Yu Niannian looked at her phone and said, "Maybe the signal is bad on Sister Good Luck's end. Let's try again tomorrow."
"Alright," Grandpa Yu checked the time, "I have to go to my room for the live broadcast. Let's talk about finding Boss Qin tomorrow!"
------------------
Host Aowu: "Welcome everyone to the Rainbow City Food Tour live broadcast room. Yesterday, due to some unexpected circumstances, the live broadcast was interrupted. Today, our reporters have been waiting for a long time. Let's switch the camera to the scene."
Food critic Wang Dazui: "Wow, I heard the owner has only been setting up his stall for twenty minutes and there are already so many people here? Investigator, please rotate the camera so we can see the surrounding environment."
Although the reporters were silent throughout the live broadcast, ambient sounds from the scene were occasionally captured.
"Hey! Boss, here's the situation. Overtime is out of the question. As long as you're willing to work hard, there's no end to the hardship. I can overcome any difficulty. What? Knowing there's a tiger in the mountain, yet still heading towards Busan? That won't do. Knowing there's a tiger in the mountain, we have to back down immediately. The signal is bad up here. Hello, hello, I can't hear you. I'm hanging up."
Fei Hua hung up the phone and let out a long sigh: "Reject workplace PUA, start from the first time leading a group. Ah, it's my turn? Boss, give me two bowls of Lei Cha, one iced and one hot, and pack all the condiments, with extra corn kernels and fried rice."
[This guy's got personality, I like him. He just said he bought a bowl of something? Lei tea? What kind of new variety of tea is that?]
[It's almost the reporters' turn to order! Quick, let's see what delicious food it is!]
Hao Yun: "Boss, I'd like an iced Lei Cha, a Lei Cha side dish, and a box of Qingyun Tea Pastries."
The live streamers will not film anyone's face; they will only focus on the food itself, in order to protect everyone's privacy.
Zhuang Qing: "It'll be 60 yuan in total. Please wait a moment, sister. We need you to make a special kind of Lei Cha (pounded tea)."
Qin Yi quietly hummed in agreement and immediately began preparing the food for the customer.
Food critic Mr. Yu: "This dish is actually called Lei Cha. I've drunk brewed tea, eaten stir-fried tea, and fried tea, but I've never seen Lei Cha made by pounding. It's a pity that the Lei Cha sold by the owner is only a semi-finished product, so I can't see the production process. I'm really curious."
Food critic Wang Dazui: "Look how abundant the ingredients are in this bowl of Lei Cha! At first glance, the bowl is piled high with various diced vegetables such as kale, bok choy, snow peas, preserved radish, and green beans, and served with a bowl of green tea soup. What a novel way to eat this! Is it a dessert or a main course?"
The host, Aowu, said: "I saw on the price list that iced Lei Cha is sweet, hot Lei Cha is savory, the rose Lei Cha in the flavored Lei Cha is sweet, and the side dish Lei Cha is savory. This Lei Cha can be sweet or savory, and there are many ways to eat it."
[What is this thing? It tastes like something I can't even imagine!]
Where can I buy it? I really want to try it!
[Lei Cha (擂茶), it has successfully caught my attention. Production team, you have one minute, I need to know its address.]
The host, Aowu, glanced at the comments in the live stream without changing his expression: "The address will be announced after the live stream ends. To avoid affecting the smooth running of the live stream, it will be kept secret for now."
[Hey reporter, quick, let's find a place to eat!]
Hao Yun quickly looked around, but there were only people everywhere in the bluestone square, not even a single bench.
He decided to do what the kids did yesterday: find a secluded step, sit down, place his phone on the ground with a stand, and position it facing the food he was holding, ready to start eating.
Yesterday, the children were happily kicking a small soccer ball in the square. Today, Saturday, A-Gui's sister is off work and is queuing up to buy them Lei Cha (a type of tea).
Food critic Grandpa Yu said, "This bowl of Lei Cha looks bright green, so it must be made from freshly ground tea leaves. You can almost feel the freshness of the tender mountain leaves even through the screen."
Hao Yun poured the toppings onto the Lei Cha (pounded tea), with fried rice and peas floating on the green tea soup.
He picked up the straw and took a big sip, but because there was too much base, it got blocked after just one sip. So he lifted the straw again and blew hard outwards.
puff.
[Oops! How did someone spray me in the face through the screen?]
Are those yellowish things in front of the camera corn kernels?
[Hey, can we use a different spoon before showing off?]
Hao Yun felt very unlucky and quickly wiped the lens clean with a tissue. This time, he didn't even dare to pick up a spoon and just drank directly from the bowl.
Food critic Uncle Yu: "Judging from the way the reporter slurped it down like a whale, this bowl of Lei Cha is very easy to drink. The base is rich in ingredients, including not only corn kernels, peas, and fried rice, but also..."
"Chen Nuonuo, catch!" Agui kicked hard in the direction of Chen Nuonuo from the square.
Shen Nuonuo tried to catch the ball but missed. The ball bounced on the ground and then lunged forward again.
The little boy was anxious and ran desperately towards where the soccer ball bounced, his eyes fixed on the ball.
Bang!
The ball suddenly slammed into Hao Yun, who was sitting on the steps of the square, and the paper bowl in his hand was instantly sent flying by the ball.
Hao Yun paused for a second, his hands empty. It didn't matter; he had bought a bowl of Lei Cha (a type of tea).
As he turned around to pick up the bowl of Lei Cha (a type of tea) that was placed next to him, he felt a strong gust of wind blow towards him.
"Ball!"
The little boy's eyes were fixed on the trajectory of the soccer ball, completely oblivious to what was beneath his feet.
The soccer ball bounced toward an adult, and Shen Nuonuo quickly ran to retrieve it.
"Ouch! A trap!"
Shen Nuonuo felt herself stepping on something soft and slippery, causing her to lose her balance and fall forward.
Hao Yun had just reached for the bowl of Lei Cha (a type of tea) next to him when a tiny foot stepped on his little finger.
The little foot not only stepped on his little finger, but also on the bowl of pounded vegetables next to him.
This is a double kill! Hao Yun's feelings are complicated at this moment.
This isn't over yet.
Because the side dishes in the bowl were moist and glistening with oil, Chen Nuonuo slipped and tumbled forward!
"Ahhh!" the little boy cried out for help.
Although Hao Yun was furious, she couldn't bear to watch the child fall face down.
He used the arm that wasn't stepped on to reach out and scoop up the small body.
Shen Nuonuo used inertia to spin around quickly, her feet making a circle in the air.
Then it accurately kicked the live-streaming phone that was placed on the stand on the ground.
Don't come any closer!
【Whoosh~ I'm off!】
Viewers in the live stream even added voiceovers.
[Yeah, as expected, the screen went black. This time it's not that the boss ran away, it's that the field researcher is going to be laid off!]
I think this researcher did a really good job! He saved a child before the connection was lost; there were steps all around, and if the child had fallen face-first, it would have been a terrible fall.
Hao Yunren was saved, but he just stared blankly as his phone flew through the air in a parabolic arc before finally landing in the middle of the square.
