Volume 1 Chapter 83 Poison Testing
It took a long time before the group of people finally persuaded Lin Muyun.
Zhu Sheng had to heat up his beloved meal in the microwave, otherwise Gu Chiye would only have to eat cold rice and cold dishes.
Director Kong saw that it was almost done, so he called everyone over again and announced that the charity meal would continue.
At this time, Zhu Sheng and Gu Chiye were the only ones who did not give each other charity meals. Fortunately, Bai Xuan had prepared the cake before, otherwise, the two of them would be starving.
After all, no one expected that this couple would be so dramatic.
Zhu Sheng didn't hesitate. She took the initiative to serve the love meal to Gu Chiye. While removing the cover, she introduced the dish to the camera.
“This is how an old scavenger taught me to make. It may not look very pretty and is a bit dangerous to make, but to me it is a rare delicacy.
After Mr. Gu and I got married, we rarely had the chance to sit down and eat together, let alone cook for each other. I don’t know his taste very well, so I can only cook according to my preferences.”
These were Zhu Sheng's true words. The original owner had hardly ever lived with Gu Chiye, so naturally there was no record of what Gu Chiye liked to eat in her diary.
Zhu Sheng was too lazy to guess. It was just a meal. If it didn’t suit his taste, he could just eat it all.
After removing the cover, what we saw was a plate of black stir-fried vegetables. It was difficult to tell what it was just by looking at its appearance.
At least, it doesn't look appetizing.
Director Kong frowned and asked, "Zhu Sheng, what is this?"
Zhu Sheng stirred it with chopsticks, allowing the audience to see some of the materials, and then answered calmly.
“This is a type of boletus, commonly known as the green boletus. If you break it open with your hands, the inside will turn indigo blue.
Although it is poisonous, it is delicious as a food ingredient. Would you like to try it?"
The onlookers' faces turned pale after hearing this. They looked at the dish with fear, their heads shaking like wave drums, and they waved their hands to refuse.
As the saying goes, red umbrella, white pole, lie on the board together after eating.
The green mushroom is a dangerous wild mushroom. It tastes good, but it usually has to be cooked in a regular restaurant. If it is not cooked properly, it can cause poisoning.
In the mildest case, one might see a villain in an illusion, and in the worst case, one might report directly to King Yan's Palace.
Seeing the frightened looks of the others, Zhu Sheng added further explanation.
"Don't worry, I added a lot of oil and stir-fried it repeatedly to ensure that the shrimp is fully cooked."
Everyone then understood why the dish was so dark; it turned out that too much oil was used and it was fried for too long.
The audience in the live broadcast room were amazed when they saw Zhu Sheng bring out a plate of stir-fried green onions.
【Thanks to Zhu Sheng for coming up with the idea of using Jian Shou Qing as a love affair, this is truly a matter of love and hate, a matter of life and death.】
[Sister Zhu's love is really not something that ordinary people can afford. If you love me, then eat poisonous mushrooms with me. Only if you have the ability to survive, you are worthy of spending your life with me. ]
[You guys are making a fuss out of nothing. Don't slander Jianshouqing like that. This dish is fine as long as it's cooked. Besides, it's made for Mr. Gu, so he must have put a lot of care into it.]
[However, the dish that Sister Zhu cooked was very black, and it was obvious that she didn't cook much. It made people wonder whether the dishes she cooked were really edible.
I wonder if Zhu Sheng has turned his love for Mr. Gu into hatred now, otherwise how could he make a dish with such a high risk factor. 】
[I am now only worried about whether the program team has enough doctors. If someone is really poisoned, can they get him to the hospital as soon as possible? Or just in case, they can just move the food tasting site to the door of the hospital emergency room...]
Even though Zhu Sheng repeatedly shouted at the scene and made various assurances that there was no problem, no one dared to step forward and give it a try.
Everyone looked embarrassed and refused.
Nonsense! No matter how delicious it is, no one is willing to risk their life for it.
Director Kong was also worried that if such a dish poisoned the entire program team, it would be a real loss.
In order to ensure the smooth recording of the program, Director Kong quickly persuaded Zhu Sheng to stop selling the poisonous mushrooms.
"Zhu Sheng, the charity meal is not meant to be prepared for the staff. Why don't you ask Mr. Gu if he wants to eat it first?"
“That’s right.”
Seeing other people avoiding it, Zhu Sheng probably realized that this dish was not very popular, and he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
Before the end of the world, this was her rare specialty.
The green lily is a poisonous mushroom that grows in the forest. Zombies generally disdain to eat it, but animals can easily be poisoned if they eat it.
Only a small number of scavengers among humans know how to pick, process and cook.
During a rescue operation in the mountains, Zhu Sheng accidentally stumbled into a small village hidden in a valley. After saving a surviving family, a scavenger taught her how to cook this dish.
Fortunately, the food ingredient of Jianshouqing is not difficult to find in the wild. From then on, Zhu Sheng would pick some every time he went on a mission in the wild.
When food was scarce, she would make this stir-fried dish and share it with her comrades who were traveling with her.
Every time it is served, everyone will rush to eat it and praise it highly, and the whole plate will be snatched up in a short while.
She has made this dish countless times and is very familiar with the heat, seasoning, and raw and cooked ingredients. However, she did not expect to be treated coldly in this show.
Zhu Sheng had no choice but to give up the promotion and honestly put the dish in front of Mr. Gu.
If this cold-blooded president also refuses, then she will have to have it all to herself.
As if he could see Zhu Sheng's disappointment, Gu Chiye raised his eyes, picked up the chopsticks without hesitation, picked up a piece of green onion, and planned to put it into his mouth.
Seeing Gu Chiye so rashly testing the poison on himself, Lin Muyun suddenly became a little anxious.
Gu Chiye didn't drink the porridge she made just now, which was a slap in her face.
Now that she ate a potentially poisonous dish without hesitation, she felt even more embarrassed.
Lin Muyun, who was so angry, decided to take the opportunity to vent his anger, so he pushed Gu Chiye down, snatched the chopsticks from his hand, and said indignantly.
"Brother Chi Ye, Zhu Sheng is not a professional chef and cannot guarantee the safety of this dish.
You've been so tired lately, you must be very weak. If something happens after you eat it, no one in the Gu family will be able to make decisions.
Besides, didn't you always dislike Zhu Sheng? She had a fight with you and committed suicide during the divorce, and she has been causing you trouble for unclear reasons ever since.
Now she has brought out a dish like this, I don’t know if it’s poisonous or not. As the saying goes, one should be on guard against others. I think it’s better not to eat it…”
These words became increasingly irritating to Zhu Sheng, who was standing nearby.
It's okay to doubt her cooking ability, but it's too much to speculate that she has the intention to harm others.
Before Lin Muyun could perform the entire process in front of Gu Chiye, Zhu Sheng retorted with a cold face.
"Wait, Ms. Lin, you made it sound like I was resentful and deliberately poisoned Gu Chiye?
This is a serious crime. If I pretend I didn’t hear it now, I won’t be able to explain it later.”
