This young man who seems to be unsociable is named Cui Luoheng. He is a member of the hurdles team of the track and field group of the S Province Sports Team and is also a troublemaker in the team.
Cui Luoheng was selected to the provincial team from the sports school in S Province just two years ago. In the words of the provincial team's hurdles coach - this kid has good talent, but his face looks like someone owes him eight million every day.
In fact, Cui Luoheng was also annoyed. Others thought that his face was full of rebellion, but he felt that if someone did not eat well every day and had to train intensively, that person’s complexion would definitely not be very good.
Of course, except Cui Luoheng himself, no one else in the team knew that this kid's sour face was actually because he felt he was not having enough food.
He sounds pretentious when talking about this issue, but he has had difficulty in getting food since he was a child. Fortunately, his family is quite wealthy. He doesn't like to eat, so his family members find ways to prepare food for him. All kinds of fine food are fed into his mouth, which made him grow to 186 cm when he was 16. Now he is 20 years old and has grown to 1.91 meters tall. In the hurdle event, he is not afraid of height at all.
However, the time he had to eat well only lasted until he was discovered by his first coach and entered the sports school.
His family was well-off, and his father did not expect him, who had been so ambitious since childhood, to achieve much in academic subjects. But after some persuasion from the coach who discovered him, with words like "winning glory for the country and bringing honor to the family," his family decided to let him practice sports.
In addition, his family, from his grandfather to his father, are all sports fans. In short, he was thrown into a sports school at a young age, and from then on he lived a vicious cycle of "the food is not delicious and I don't want to eat - the training is huge and I have to eat - I want to go home and eat something good but the coach won't let me - I force myself to eat and I feel unhappy."
After so many years, he has developed the ability to eat all kinds of food he hates without batting an eyelid. After all, training requires a lot of physical energy. As an athlete, if he cannot ensure the intake of various nutrients, there may not be too many problems in the short term, but in the long run, it will inevitably affect an athlete's personal condition and performance.
However, learning to eat food you don’t like and feeling unhappy after eating it are not contradictory at all.
Cui Luoheng has not had a good meal since he started training, and until now, he just has a sour face every day.
Cui Luoheng felt that he had a very good temper. There was no one in the entire S Province Sports Team with a better temper than him!
However, the fragrance coming from the third floor of the cafeteria today seemed to be telling Cui Luoheng that his days of not being able to eat well might soon be over?
When Cui Luoheng walked into the restaurant on the third floor, he could see that there was an exceptionally long line at one window, and the saliva-watering aroma in the cafeteria on the third floor also came from this window.
After seeing that the window number was 3, Cui Luoheng immediately took out his meal card and swiped it at the meal pick-up station. The athletes who dine on the third floor all have their own exclusive menus every day. After swiping the card at the meal pick-up station, they will know which window they need to go to to pick up their meals.
Coincidentally, among the three vegetarian dishes, one meat dish and one soup in Cui Luoheng's meal tonight, one vegetarian dish, one meat dish and one soup were all taken from this window No. 3.
Seeing this, Cui Luoheng showed a slightly satisfied look on his face, and walked towards window number 3 with the food tray.
When Cui Luoheng walked to the end of the line at window No. 3, Qiu Wen had just picked up his meal from window No. 3. Among his side dishes today, the tomato and egg soup and the braised beef were picked up at window No. 3. However, there was no stir-fried eggplant with sauce on his menu today, but there was another dish of stir-fried asparagus - he was doing endurance training recently, and eating asparagus can supplement oligosaccharides, which is exactly what he needs for training.
Although he had already received the one meat and one soup dish made by Su Bai, Qiu Wen was also tempted by the stir-fried eggplant with soy sauce. However, the record on the menu had already been clearly written, so he could only hold the braised beef and tomato and egg soup with a resentful look on his face and go to another window to get his own complete meal.
Cui Luoheng was not so conflicted. He had a share of all three dishes at window No. 3. With a satisfied look on his face, Cui Luoheng held the plate, walked around and got his dinner and the side fruits. Then he found a seat at random, sat down, picked up the chopsticks, and started eating.
The dishes in front of him were actually made with common ingredients and cooking methods in the restaurant on the third floor of the provincial team. Just like this braised beef, chef Sun Xiangdong had made it countless times. But in the past, Cui Luoheng just forced it down for the sake of training. How could it be like what he saw today?
The presentation of the dish looked ordinary, but the beef was of just the right color and covered with a layer of boiled broth, making the color look particularly beautiful. Before being handed to him, the beef had just been scooped out of the stew pot and was still steaming. Cui Luoheng stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a piece of beef, and put it into his mouth. In an instant, a wonderful taste exploded in his mouth.
The long-lost feeling of enjoying delicious food made him close his eyes comfortably.
Cui Luoheng chewed the beef in his mouth, and the wonderful feeling continued to spread in his mouth. The beef itself had just the right amount of toughness, and chewing it a few more times made the original aroma more memorable.
There was still some soup at the bottom of the bowl of braised beef. After taking a bite of the beef, Cui Luoheng picked up the spoon without hesitation, scooped out the soup in the bowl, and poured it on his rice, making the already hot, white and glutinous rice even more fragrant and delicious.
After taking a bite of the braised beef, Cui Luoheng stretched out his chopsticks to the stir-fried eggplant with soy sauce - eggplant is a good thing, and it is also a common dish in athletes' nutritional meals. However, the fat content in athletes' diets must be strictly controlled. In addition, the food will be as light as possible. To make the stir-fried eggplant with soy sauce, it must be low in oil and light in taste, so the final product often seems a bit bland in taste.
But today’s eggplant does not look greasy as if too much oil was added, and the sauce does not seem to have too much, but the feeling it gives people is that it looks delicious.
Cui Luoheng didn’t know if it was his illusion, but he was indeed quite interested in this eggplant. After picking up the eggplant and putting it into his mouth with chopsticks, he felt even more satisfied.
This eggplant dish is not greasy at all. It is soft and sticky when you bite it. The soup absorbed by the eggplant will come out. The soup carries the aroma of eggplant and you can swallow it down in one gulp.
Tsk, perfect.
After taking these two bites, Cui Luoheng's face was filled with satisfaction.
Not to mention that after taking a sip of the refreshing tomato and egg soup, the delicious food quickly aroused his appetite - this pleasure of eating delicious food made Cui Luoheng's stinky face, which was always called "others owed him eight million", ease a lot.
A mouthful of white rice topped with braised soup, a mouthful of beef, another mouthful of white rice, and another mouthful of stir-fried eggplant... While eating these, Cui Luoheng maintained a happy mood and did not forget the other dishes on the plate. There were a few delicious dishes to start with, and some ordinary food from time to time. Although it was not so perfect, it was already the best meal Cui Luoheng had had in all these years.
By the way, who was the chef who made these dishes that those people mentioned at first?
The name Xiaobai appeared in Cui Luoheng's mind.
Su Bai.
Cui Luoheng knew Su Bai, but the two were not in the same training group. Neither Su Bai nor he was the type to enthusiastically make friends everywhere, so they were just acquaintances.
Su Bai's name has been discussed more frequently in the provincial team these past two days, because Su Bai appeared on the list of retired players on the provincial team's bulletin board the day before - there are not many players of Su Bai's age who choose to retire, and he did not suffer any serious injuries, but he chose to retire just like that. This matter caused a lot of discussion in the team.
But I didn’t expect that the protagonist of this discussion would become one of the chefs in the restaurant on the third floor, and have such outstanding skills.
Thinking of this, Cui Luoheng immediately put an angel halo on the name Su Bai in his heart, and added a string of favorability.
Who cares why he retired? Anyone who cooks such delicious food must be a good person!
Maybe we could consider getting to know each other some other day?
Cui Luoheng ate his meal with an expressionless face while thinking aimlessly in his mind.
In the restaurant on the third floor, except for Cui Luoheng who still seemed calm while eating, the rest of the contestants, both male and female, held the food on their plates that was fortunate enough to be ordered from window number 3, and shed tears of excitement.
"Oh my god, this is the best braised beef/sautéed eggplant/tomato and egg soup I've ever had in my life!"
In the restaurant, there were not many lucky people like Cui Luoheng who could collect all three dishes from Su Bai at once, but most people had one or two dishes ordered from window No. 3.
At this moment, everyone was eating the side dishes they got from window No. 3 and became excited. The restaurant was suddenly bustling with activity.
"Oh! How can the braised beef be so delicious? Give me 10 bowls of rice with it. I can do it!"
"You wish. After you eat 10 bowls of rice, Lao Zhang will hang you up and beat you! You're just eating nonsense!"
"I saw the name card of the chef in charge at window 3. These dishes were all made by Su Bai! A true man never shows his true colors. Su Xiaobai's dishes are so delicious. I can't accept this. Why didn't I ask him to cook a few meals for us?"
Most of the athletes in the restaurant on the third floor knew Su Bai, whether they were familiar with him or not was another matter.
No one expected that Su Xiaobai, who looked cold, actually had such skills in cooking.
Everyone who ate these dishes cherished them very much. After eating a few big bites, they saw that there were not many side dishes cooked by Su Bai left, so they started to chew them slowly in small bites.
Some people are unlucky with their meals and miss even one dish. They can only look around to see if there are any acquaintances who want to try a dish. Then, enjoying the aroma in the restaurant, they imagine the wonderful feeling of being able to enjoy a feast of these delicious dishes.
Among the dining crowd, after Qiu Wen took his first bite of the braised beef, he began to miss the stir-fried eggplant with soybean sauce that he didn't get. He felt sad as he thought about it. Then, as he listened to everyone around him praising Su Bai's cooking skills, he felt proud in his heart - he was the first person to taste Su Xiaobai's bone soup noodles. Oh, I wonder if he can trick himself into having another bowl of bone soup noodles tonight?
In the kitchen, Su Bai has also taken a break. In the kitchens on each floor of the third floor, the chefs would leave some food for themselves as their lunch.
At this moment, Sun Xiangdong was already holding his bowl of white rice, eating with great relish along with the dishes made by Su Bai.
Sun Xiangdong is not an athlete, so he certainly doesn't have to worry about the nutritional ratio of these nutritional meals. He only cares about which dish tastes good. So he is much happier than the athletes in the restaurant outside.
While eating, Sun Xiangdong became even more satisfied with Su Bai and felt that letting Su Bai join the kitchen was a very good decision.
If Su Bai could hear the notification sound of the favorability value at this moment, he would have been drowned out by all the crazy favorability value +1 sounds.
After this evening meal, Su Bai had completed his target mission. He had obtained 20 primary associated users. Among them, Qiu Wen and Sun Xiangdong, who ranked first and second, had eaten two meals from him, so their experience points as primary associated users had both become 2/20. It is very likely that after their experience points are full, they will become his intermediate associated users.
In addition, the 'validity period of associated users' for both of them was also extended by one day.
While eating, Su Bai looked at the system interface in his mind and flipped through the information of his 20 related users, especially the information about the project potential value.
Yesterday he was quite shocked when he saw that Qiu Wen's potential values for the 100-meter sprint and 200-meter sprint were only 3.9 and 4.2. You know, Qiu Wen is already a player with good results in the provincial team. In competitions such as the National Track and Field Grand Prix, Qiu Wen can compete for the top three in the 100 meters. Even in major competitions such as the National Championships, he is a seeded player who can compete for the top five.
On the contrary, in the 200-meter race, although Qiu Wen's results are also good, at present, his 200-meter results are still not as good as those in the 100-meter sprint.
However, in terms of potential values in these two events, Qiu Wen's 200 meters is slightly higher than that in 100 meters... and even after being slightly higher, Qiu Wen's potential values in these two events seem to be far from passing.
Su Bai originally didn't know whether this problem was caused by the sand sculpture system's too strict evaluation criteria or for some other reason, so he had been waiting for new related users to appear.
At this moment, after he glanced at all the related users one by one, he finally confirmed that this stupid system was an extremely harsh system and there was no hope for it.
Among the 18 associated users he collected today, one is a gold medalist in the women's hammer throw. About 70% to 80% of her daily training is handled by the national team. She just happened to return to the provincial team recently to prepare for an event to be held in S city soon.
Women's hammer throw is a strong event in China. If the leader of the provincial team can possess top strength in the country, then her strength is also enough to compete for Olympic medals worldwide.
So how does this big sister rate her potential in the project?
With her ability, her potential score in the project was only 8.2 points.
When Su Bai saw this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart - I really don't know if this stupid system will consider there to be gods with a score of 9 or above. Gods with that kind of potential are probably at the level of being able to break world records, right?
The thoughts in his mind were in a mess for a moment, and then Su Bai quickly put these thoughts behind him and took another look at the potential values of all related users.
Then I saw two numbers that seemed extremely high under the strict evaluation of the sand sculpture system.
One is the well-known talented athlete in the team, Wang Shen, whose potential value in the current event, high jump, is as high as 7.3 points.
The other is Cui Luoheng, a well-known troublemaker in the team. His potential value in the current event, the 110-meter hurdles, is even slightly higher than Wang Shen's, reaching 7.5 points.
