Chapter 42: Untitled
After Song Beichen and the others finished their blind date, they wanted to wait outside the competition venue and watch Mo Qingyan's competition.
Unfortunately, there are too many people participating in the competition.
Therefore, the enclosed area is naturally large.
They were outside and couldn't see Mo Qingyan at all.
Moreover, they were accompanied by their blind date, and it was not convenient to make them stand in the hot sun for two or three hours.
So, I could only go back to the place where the blind date took place, holding my phone, and watching Mo Qingyan’s live broadcast.
Occasionally, I would chat with my blind date out of politeness.
However, when I saw the cold noodles made by Mo Qingyan, I almost couldn't help but drool.
Like Qi Na, she only knew that what Mo Qingyan cooked was delicious, but she had never actually eaten it, and still couldn't imagine what that cold skin was like.
Watching the live broadcast, I can still bear it.
But Song Beichen and the other two had eaten the cold noodles made by Mo Qingyan, and knew how delicious they were.
As soon as I saw the cold noodles made by Mo Qingyan, I started to swallow my saliva.
If it weren't for the willpower of the adults supporting them, they would probably have drooled.
Originally, they saw that there were still so many cold noodles left at Mo Qingyan's place, and thought that they could have another meal of cold noodles after the game.
Unexpectedly, Gao Moqi and the other two bought up all the cold noodles.
Song Beichen and the other two almost popped their eyes out of their heads.
Seeing that the competition was finally over, they immediately took their blind dates and headed straight to the competition venue.
A group of young handsome men and beautiful women came over, followed by a group of cameramen, which was quite eye-catching.
Seeing that only Mo Qingyan and Butler Wang were there, Song Beichen asked Mo Qingyan, "Brother Mo, where is your blind date? Isn't she here?"
Song Beichen's words reminded Mo Qingyan.
"Oh, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten. He should still be in the cafe. I'll go look for him in the cafe."
Although neither Mo Qingyan nor the other party had any intention of going on a blind date, in name, they were still blind date partners. It was a bit too unfair to leave someone in a cafe for two or three hours.
Mo Qingyan was just about to turn around and go to the coffee shop to look for someone, but Fang Wei had already rushed out in a hurry.
After Mo Qingyan left, he set up Yin Yiyi's live broadcast room directly in the coffee shop and watched Yin Yiyi's blind date live throughout the whole process.
When he saw that the person Yin Yiyi was dating was indeed a girl, he felt relieved.
Even though same-sex marriage is now legal.
However, Yin Yiyi had said before that she only liked the opposite sex.
Therefore, the probability of a successful blind date with a girl is almost zero.
Fang Wei naturally felt relieved.
And Yin Yiyi really had no intention of developing any relationship with the female guest on the blind date.
The two of them watched Mo Qingyan's live broadcast the whole time while discussing the various delicious dishes made by Mo Qingyan.
Seeing that Mo Qingyan's competition was over, Yin Yiyi took the blind date arranged by the program team and rushed to the main entrance of Guangyuan Square to meet Mo Qingyan.
Fang Wei also rushed over immediately.
After Fang Wei rushed over, he walked straight past Mo Qingyan, his blind date, and went straight to Yin Yiyi.
He introduced himself: "Hello, Yiyi. I am Fang Wei from Kyoto. I came here for you this time."
Looking at Yin Yiyi's familiar pretty face, Fang Wei was very excited.
Finally, I saw her again.
"No, what's going on?" Song Beichen asked Mo Qingyan in confusion, "Brother Mo, isn't that your blind date?"
Mo Qingyan shrugged and said, "He is my blind date, but as you can see, he likes Yin Yiyi."
"This kid is incredible. He actually followed me all the way from Kyoto to here."
Mo Qingyan could see Fang Wei's passionate love for Yin Yiyi from his eyes.
This Fang Wei seems to really like Yin Yiyi.
Moreover, judging from the affectionate way he addressed Yin Yiyi, he and Yin Yiyi seemed to be familiar with each other. ”
As expected, after hearing Fang Wei's self-introduction, Yin Yiyi looked him up and down in surprise, "Fang Wei? Are you the little fat boy from the Fang family, Fang Wei?"
"It's me, it's me. Yiyi, long time no see."
Fang Wei was very happy to see that Yin Yiyi still remembered him.
"You've changed so much. You've become thinner, more handsome, and taller. I almost didn't recognize you. Didn't you go abroad? How come you're in City B?"
Yin Yiyi remembered that Fang Wei went abroad five years ago.
Before going abroad, Fang Wei was still a little fat boy.
At that time, this little fat boy was still a little kid!
"Yes, I went abroad, and now I'm back after graduation. Yiyi, I came here especially for you."
Fang Wei did not hide the love for Yin Yiyi in his eyes at all.
Unfortunately, Yin Yiyi is a straight-forward woman.
She couldn't see any love at all.
In her opinion, Fang Wei is still the little kid who used to follow her around.
She slapped Fang Wei's arm hard, glared at him, and said, "What Yiyi? After being away for a few years, you've become so disrespectful. Call me Sister Yiyi."
Then, Yin Yiyi stood on tiptoe, just like when she was a child. He reached out his hand, put it around his neck, and pushed him down.
Then he said to Mo Qingyan, "Brother Mo, can I bring one more person to your place for a meal? This is the younger brother of my former neighbor next door."
Mo Qingyan looked at being held under Yin Yiyi's armpits, not daring to move or resist, and even looked like she was enjoying the situation. She said meaningfully, "Sure, but you have to pay for one more person's food expenses. After all, your brother Mo is very poor now and can't afford to support so many people."
"Of course you have to! Brother Mo, I will pay three times the food expenses for you." It was the first time that Yin Yiyi heard Mo Qingyan say the word "food expenses".
Mo Qingyan wanted to charge her for food, what did that mean?
This means that as long as she pays the food expenses, she can go to Mo Qingyan's house for meals at any time in the future.
"No need, Yiyi. I can pay for the food myself. You don't have to spend any money." Fang Wei felt embarrassed when he heard that Yin Yiyi had to help him pay for the food.
"Give it yourself?" Yin Yiyi glanced down at him, "You are just a kid, how much money do you have? And I've already told you that it's rude to call me Sister Yiyi."
As she spoke, Yin Yiyi patted Fang Wei's head. Fang Wei did not resist. Instead, he looked like he was enjoying this intimacy.
Mo Qingyan really wanted to tell Yin Yiyi that the little brat you are talking about is not only rich. He is also very rich. In order to meet someone for a blind date, he directly booked out the entire coffee shop. The manager of the cafe was even asked to greet us personally at the door.
Unfortunately, I met the wrong blind date.
Mo Qingyan originally thought that Fang Wei was a fan of Yin Yiyi, but she didn't expect that he was someone she knew.
But, since Fang Wei knows Yin Yiyi, how come he doesn’t have her contact information?
You have to ask him to get it.
Unable to figure it out, Mo Qingyan simply stopped thinking about it.
After all, he is not the kind of gossipy person.
After Mo Qingyan, Song Beichen and others left, Gao Moqi also returned to Xu Yi's house with the packed cold noodles.
He was greeted by Xu Yi's warm welcome at the gate.
Xu Yi couldn't wait to take the packaged cold noodles from Gao Moqi.
He smiled and said, "Mo Qi, I have known you for so many years. This time you acted like a human being the most. You even learned how to pack food. That's great, very great. You must continue this good habit of packing food after eating, okay?"
However, Gao Moqi held the bag of the take-away box tightly, staring at Xu Yi calmly, and repeated what he had just said, "Like a human being?"
"Oh, I was just joking." Xu Yi quickly explained: "You know, you couldn't say more than three sentences that day. If you didn't know, you would think it was a real-life statue."
"You don't know, when you were rating Brother Mo's food, I was afraid you would vomit. Luckily you didn't. You even gave Brother Mo a high praise. But that's also because our Brother Mo's cold noodles are delicious and his cooking skills are great. He deserves it."
Is this cold noodle made by Brother Mo?
Gao Moqi loosened his grip on the bag and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Did Mo Qingyan make those three-fresh dumplings?"
Xu Yi had only told him before that the three-fresh dumplings were made by a rich second-generation man named Mo Ge.
But he didn't say the full name.
Therefore, Gao Moqi had no idea that Mo Qingyan was that Brother Mo.
"Yes, Mo Qingyan is Brother Mo. Swoosh, this cold noodle smells so good!" Xu Yi opened the lid of the takeaway box, sniffed it hard, and then couldn't wait to eat it.
"Wow, this cold noodle is so delicious. It's comparable to the three-fresh dumplings!"
“How can this be so delicious?”
Xu Yi couldn't stop eating.
Seeing that he finished one box and immediately reached for the second box, Gao Moqi snatched the box away.
Said to Xu Yi: "This is mine."
"Haven't you already eaten?" Xu Yi widened his eyes.
However, Gao Moqi ignored him, picked up the chopsticks, opened the lid of the takeaway box, and started eating gracefully.
This was in stark contrast to Xu Yi's voracious eating just now.
"Mo Qi, let me have one more bite, just one bite."
"No."
"Well, one will do, right?"
"No."
"Will you say anything other than no?"
"no……"
…………
Song Beichen and their blind date formed a team and returned to Mo Qingyan's house.
The purpose is very clear, which is to run to Mo Qingyan's place and have lunch.
I have to say, although it's just a formality, the blind date candidates found by Director Feng are all quite reliable.
These blind date guests are all people from the entertainment industry.
Although they are not big stars, they are all famous to some extent.
Moreover, they all have a good reputation both inside and outside the circle.
He is rich, good-looking, and polite, or at least he maintains politeness on the surface.
Seeing Mo Qingyan busying around, they all ran over to help.
When they ate the cold noodles, they all exclaimed in surprise.
“This cold noodle is so delicious.”
“I’ve never eaten anything so delicious.”
"What's going on? It's so simple to make, why is it so delicious?"
“It’s delicious. It’s absolutely delicious.”
These celebrities are not the kind of people who have never eaten good food.
On the contrary, after becoming celebrity artists, they have eaten a lot of delicious food.
However, good things do not necessarily mean they taste good.
Before, all the delicacies they ate from land and sea were not as good as this bowl of cold noodles.
Originally, they just wanted to make some money by appearing on variety shows, and gain some exposure and traffic.
After all, you can make more money by appearing on variety shows than by filming TV series or movies.
The money comes quickly and the work is easy.
Dating shows like this have a pretty high exposure rate.
Recently, the traffic of "Another Life" is so good that many people are jealous.
Many celebrity artists want to be on the show to increase their exposure and traffic.
Of course, increasing exposure and traffic is only one of the reasons. More importantly, the regular male and female guests of this show are all real rich second-generations.
If you can really be with those rich second-generations, it would be like entering a wealthy family.
Marrying into a wealthy family is the dream of many celebrities and artists.
A wealthy family, in many cases, means capital.
From being a puppet of capital to becoming capital itself, that is a leap of class.
If they hadn't been chosen in advance and the contract hadn't been signed, it probably wouldn't be their turn yet!
However, after actually going on a blind date, you will find out. These second-generation rich people never thought about blind dates at all, they are just going through the motions.
How can you survive in the entertainment industry without a keen eye?
The rich second-generations have all said they don’t want to date anymore, so it’s not easy for them to move forward.
It's not good to make others dislike you.
Anyway, we're only staying for two days, so just take it as a chance to relax and have fun.
These blind date guests were so discerning that they greatly reduced the trouble for Song Beichen and his team.
I didn't expect that I would be able to eat such delicious food just for the sake of formality.
This was a complete surprise.
Fang Wei had been abroad for several years, and his taste buds had been poisoned by the food he ate there, to the point that they were about to have problems.
I couldn't help but eat three bowls of this delicious food that whetted my appetite.
This cold noodle is unexpectedly delicious!
Fang Wei almost didn't stop eating.
My stomach is full.
Yin Yiyi, who was sitting opposite him, also ate three bowls.
"Ah, this cold noodle is really more delicious the more I eat it. I can't stop eating it."
Yin Yiyi put down her chopsticks and burped.
Then, he said to Mo Qingyan who was sitting at the top, "Brother Mo, otherwise, you should just obey me. Without you, I will do this in the future!"
Unexpectedly, Yin Yiyi's joke made Fang Wei feel like he was struck by lightning.
He looked at Mo Qingyan in disbelief.
Yiyi actually likes him?
Mo Qingyan glanced at Yin Yiyi calmly and said, "Yin Yiyi, you are too stingy. Do you think you don't have to pay for food if you win me over? You're dreaming. Three times the food allowance, not a penny less. Everyone listen."
At first, Mo Qingyan was helpless when she heard Yin Yiyi and the others say this.
This happened a few times and I got used to it.
Naturally, I learned how to deal with them.
"I'm serious, Brother Mo, will you consider it?" Yin Yiyi still didn't give up and made a final attempt.
"I'm serious too." Mo Qingyan pointed at the camera and said, "Not a penny less for the food allowance! Everyone in the live studio has heard it."
The audience in the live broadcast room echoed the sentiment.
"Yes, we all heard it. Yin Yiyi said she would give Brother Mo three times the food allowance."
"I don't know who it was, but she started shouting about wanting to lose weight as soon as she entered the show. In the end, she was the one who shouted the loudest and ate the most."
"Given Yin Yiyi's appetite, three times the food allowance is too little. Brother Mo needs to charge five times to make a profit, right? (dog head)"
…
After speaking to Yin Yiyi, Mo Qingyan said to Song Beichen and the others with a stern face: "You too. Don't think you can eat for free by finding those lame excuses. My cooking is expensive, you have to pay for it."
Mo Qingyan glanced at Fang Wei, saw his expression of disbelief, and finally relaxed. I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Yin Yiyi is so straightforward. Even though Fang Wei has followed her here, she still lets him be with her in front of him.
Wouldn't that make him hate you?
He doesn't want to be such a victim.
"Yes, yes, pay, you have to pay." Song Beichen immediately understood what Mo Qingyan meant, and quickly stood up and shouted: "Brother Mo, don't worry, I will transfer the meal money to you immediately. I'm not as stingy as Yin Yiyi."
As he said that, Song Beichen transferred the money to Mo Qingyan.
"Don't worry, Brother Mo, the money for the meal must be paid for." Tao Zui also took out his mobile phone to transfer money to Mo Qingyan.
"And me." Qi Na also took out her mobile phone and transferred money to Mo Qingyan. "Don't worry, brother Mo, I'm not as stingy as Yiyi."
Qi Na knew that Mo Qingyan’s cooking was delicious, but she didn’t expect it to be so delicious.
She, who usually only eats half a bowl of rice, actually ate three full bowls of cold noodles.
He eats as much as grown men like Song Beichen.
Before, she always thought she had a small appetite.
Now it seems that she didn't have a small appetite, she just didn't eat delicious food.
"Hey, hey, you guys are too mean, aren't you? It's as if I really can't afford Brother Mo's food expenses." Yin Yiyi knew that Mo Qingyan was trying to save face. This food allowance is also used to shut everyone up.
Alas, think about it, it’s such a pity that I can’t be with Brother Mo.
"Sister Yiyi, let me help you give it to you." Fang Wei felt relieved when he heard Mo Qingyan reject Yin Yiyi.
It turned out that Sister Yiyi didn’t like Mo Qingyan, but liked the food Mo Qingyan cooked.
As long as you don’t like Mo Qingyan, it’s fine.
"What are you giving? Do you have a friend named Gamo? Besides, you are just a kid, how much money do you have?"
As she spoke, Yin Yiyi picked up her phone and transferred money to Mo Qingyan.
They have quite a good understanding with each other.
One person transferred 10,000 yuan to Mo Qingyan.
If they gave too many, they were afraid that Mo Qingyan would not accept them. If they gave too few, they would feel that they were not worthy of Mo Qingyan's cooking skills.
Seeing Song Beichen and others transferring money, the blind date guests also took out their mobile phones.
"Then let's go too."
"Um, Brother Mo, how much is this meal?"
"You don't need to." Mo Qingyan waved her hand and said generously: "How much can you eat? They can eat much more than you."
Originally, Mo Qingyan had no intention of charging them for food or anything like that.
The so-called food expenses are just a joke.
Of course, it was also to shut up Yin Yiyi and the others, so that they wouldn't talk nonsense and covet him again.
After eating cold noodles at noon, everyone sat in the living room and chatted.
In the evening, the program team arranged a romantic candlelight dinner for each blind date guest in a five-star restaurant.
However, this romantic candlelight dinner turned directly into a complaining session.
Because the food in this restaurant looks exquisite, but the taste is far worse than what Mo Qingyan makes.
In the end, everyone just ate a few bites reluctantly and finished the meal.
Then, they went back to Mo Qingyan's place and had another meal of cold noodles, and only then were they satisfied.
After the live broadcast ended, Song Beichen and others went back to the villa arranged by the program team.
Originally, according to the arrangement of the program team, everyone needed to go back to the villa to gather.
However, Mo Qingyan still has a game tomorrow.
In order to avoid being in a hurry, Mo Qingyan did not go to the villa.
After Taozui returned to the villa arranged by the program team, he immediately went into his room and reported the progress of Mingyue Group in the group.
Today, Mingyue Group's stock price hit the daily limit again.
If this continues, Mingyue Group’s market value will soon double.
The stock price of Eurasia Company also rose significantly because of this cooperation.
From the perspective of the stock market, the cooperation between the two companies can be considered a win-win situation.
But now is not the time to close the net.
This fish needs to be allowed to grow longer so that its meat will become plump and delicious.
Tao Zui: "By the way, Brother Mo, there is one more thing. Bei Xiyue and Zhang Tianhao are getting engaged. The Bei family is planning to hold an engagement party for them next Sunday."
got engaged?
Mo Qingyan didn't expect that Bei Ming would actually let Bei Xiyue get engaged to Zhang Tianhao.
It seems that Bei Ming doesn't treat his niece Bei Xiyue very well.
He just didn't believe that someone like Bei Ming wouldn't know Zhang Tianhao's background.
He knew very well that Zhang Tianhao was unreliable, yet he still agreed to let Bei Xiyue and Zhang Tianhao get engaged, and he was only nice to Bei Xiyue on the surface.
Thinking about the shares of Mingyue Group held by Bei Xiyue, Mo Qingyan suddenly understood why Bei Ming did this.
Suddenly, Mo Qingyan discovered that Bei Xiyue had actually sent her a message.
When he opened it, he found that Bei Xiyue had actually sent him an invitation to an engagement party.
Bei Xiyue clearly knew that he was Zhang Tianhao's ex-boyfriend, but she still sent him an invitation letter. This was clearly a provocation!
She really thought she had snatched a treasure back.
Well, since she invited him, he must give her a big gift.
Mo Qingyan immediately went to the group and sent a message.
Mo Qingyan: "Bei Xiyue just sent me an invitation. Since they have invited me, even if I don't go, I still want to give them a big gift. What do you think, how about giving this big gift on the day of their engagement?"
Yin Yiyi: "Is Bei Xiyue crazy? She was engaged, but she actually sent an invitation to provoke Brother Mo. She is really stupid."
Song Beichen: "If Bei Xiyue hadn't been stupid, would she have chosen Zhang Tianhao, that gigolo? Don't worry, Brother Mo, on their engagement day, we will definitely give them a gift that they will never forget in their lifetime."
Tao Zui: "Brother Mo, leave this matter to me. I will definitely deliver the gifts to them on time."
The three of them have already expressed their opinions, and Mo Qingyan is no longer paying attention to it.
The next day, Mo Qingyan, accompanied by Song Beichen and others, went to the main entrance of Guangyuan Square to start the promotion match, the first game.
This time, no ingredients or equipment are needed.
The organizer will provide all ingredients for the qualifying rounds and finals, as well as all kitchen utensils and equipment for cooking.
Out of one thousand contestants, only thirty made it to the qualifying round.
The positions in the promotion matches are arranged according to the scores in the knockout rounds.
Mo Qingyan was in the first position, and on his right was Zhou Ningren.
Standing behind Zhou Ningren was a strange face.
Li Zhenmin is in fourth position.
This time, Li Bo did not come. For the qualifying round, no one except the chef himself was allowed to come in.
This means that when the qualifying round begins, the participating chefs will no longer have helpers.
The participating chefs need to do all the small tasks, such as washing and cutting vegetables, by themselves.
The qualifying round is where the real test of your cooking skills begins.
Mo Qingyan came neither early nor late.
Just after I talked a few words with Li Zhenmin, Zhou Ningren came.
This time, only one contestant could enter the venue, so when Zhou Ningren entered, there was not as much noise as yesterday.
Only Mo Qingyan's cameraman could follow Mo Qingyan in.
When Zhou Ningren saw that there was a special cameraman following Mo Qingyan, he became even more certain that Mo Qingyan had taken the back door.
Otherwise, why would he be the only one with a separate cameraman following him?
The other cameramen at the scene took a quick glance at all the contestants.
Humph, he hates people who use backdoors to get first place the most.
When Zhou Ningren walked to his seat, Mo Qingyan was about to nod and say hello to him.
Zhou Ningren snorted at him coldly, "Don't think you're great just because you got first place through the back door and entered the promotion match. I don't know how you bribed Gao Moqi, but this is a promotion match. No matter how stupid Gao Moqi is, he won't let someone like you win the game. Just wait to be eliminated."
"What do you mean by backdoor? Can't I have won the first place by relying on my own strength?" Mo Qingyan really didn't know why Zhou Ningren thought that he won the first place by relying on the backdoor.
Moreover, they had never met before yesterday, so why would he be so hostile?
Could it be because what I cook tastes better than his? I defeated him and took first place in the knockout round, so why is he so hostile?
If this is true, then Zhou Ningren is too narrow-minded and too self-righteous.
"You won first place by your own strength? You?"
Zhou Ningren said with disdain: "You, a bunch of idiot chefs who are not even qualified to participate in the state banquet chef competition, can cook better than me? What are you daydreaming about?"
In Zhou Ningren's mind, only state-banquet-level chefs are qualified to be his rivals.
He didn't even take seriously a chef like Mo Qingyan who wasn't even qualified to participate in the state banquet chef competition.
In his opinion, he and those shabby chefs like Mo Qingyan were not on the same level at all.
A shabby chef like Mo Qingyan could never be his opponent.
However, his words were not just an attack on Mo Qingyan, but were a direct attack on all the other contestants present.
In addition, he spoke without any scruples and even amplified his voice, so almost all the participating chefs could hear him.
Suddenly, everyone's faces turned ugly.
