After Gu Xinghe rushed back after taking the wine from the cellar.
The scene before him undoubtedly showed that the people in front of him were happily preparing dinner for the evening.
Moreover, because of the presence of professionals like Eiffel.
Even if there were people like Sylph who weren't very good at cooking among the five, it wouldn't have come to the point of "blowing up the kitchen."
However, even with professional guidance, the line between clean and messy in the kitchen is still very clear.
For example, Sylph, who was initially "forced" into the game, was actually extremely confident in herself and determined to take first place.
Just like the apron that Gu Xinghe had seen earlier, which was covered in stains.
The kitchen counter in front of her was the dirtiest and messiest one.
Seeing this, Gu Xinghe felt that his premonition had once again proven accurate.
Although he had not yet tasted Sylph's cooking, he had a premonition of her culinary skills at that time.
"Are you back already?"
At this moment, as if sensing Gu Xinghe's gaze that had been watching her from behind, Sylph turned around and spoke to him.
"So, are you planning to take a shower first, or eat first, or perhaps..."
However, after sensing Gu Xinghe's gaze, Sylph said these words at the same time.
She also stepped forward, blocking Gu Xinghe's view of her messy kitchen counter.
At this moment, a faint blush spread across Sylph's cheeks.
It's unclear whether it was because Gu Xinghe saw her obviously terrible cooking skills.
It was because she was forced to say those words when she tried to distract Gu Xinghe.
At this moment, Sylph's words were clearly intended to distract Gu Xinghe from her messy kitchen counter.
However, Gu Xinghe directly interrupted Sylph's unfinished words.
"I'm going to watch your confident cooking process first, after all, I'm really looking forward to Lady Sylph's 'feast'."
Gu Xinghe returned Sylph's original words to her.
Upon hearing this, Sylph's blush deepened even further.
However, looking at Sylph's plate of brown, unidentified objects that were half solid and half liquid...
Gu Xinghe realized that he couldn't even tell what kind of food it was.
Moreover, because of its dark brown color, Gu Xinghe even wondered if it was a traditional Chinese medicine.
"Is this a semi-finished product that hasn't been completed yet? Or is it a finished product?"
"Of course it's the finished product. Can't you tell what it is?"
Seeing Sylph's current enthusiasm, Gu Xinghe, not wanting to dampen her spirits, could only resort to cheating—
"This is... coffee jelly?"
Even though he had already deduced the correct answer from the other person's thoughts, Gu Xinghe still asked with some uncertainty.
"That's right! So you're saying there's nothing wrong with what I did!"
No, this is an absolutely huge problem!
Thinking this, Gu Xinghe didn't even need to be "chased" away; he had already left the kitchen quite consciously.
He was afraid that Sylph's next words would be to ask him to try the food first.
Although I haven't had a chance to see the dishes made by others yet.
But Gu Xinghe didn't have to wait long before he received the real answer—
It didn't make the girls compete like in a real cooking competition.
After they presented their dishes, they could only watch the judges taste them.
After finally managing to prepare the food, the girls naturally wanted to share and enjoy it with the people they liked.
So at this point, after cooking was finished, all five of them took out the food they had prepared.
Mia made creamy soup, Teresa made garlic bread, Chris made fish stew in tomato sauce, and Eiffel made a pot of seafood rice.
And, Sylph's coffee jelly.
This coffee jelly is a significant improvement over the one Gu Xinghe saw before.
But for some reason, the coffee jelly that Sylph served was still somewhat misshapen.
If a normal jelly should be shaped like a frustum.
Now, this jelly made by Sylph is shaped like a puddle of melted brown slime.
Yes, it was a puddle. Although it had barely solidified, the jelly in front of me could only be described as a puddle.
Seeing that the jelly looked a bit off, Gu Xinghe and the others decided to try the cream soup first, following the normal order of the meal.
The cream soup tasted perfectly normal, except it was a little sweet.
But if you remember that the creator was Mia...
Could it be because he saw that he added a "lethal dose" of sugar when he was making strawberry jam in the city park and nothing happened to him?
So now Mia is imitating him back then and adding a lot of sweetness, right?
It's okay, it's not a big problem.
Gu Xinghe found the slightly salty garlic bread made by Teresa to be just right when paired with the cream soup.
After that, Gu Xinghe and the others began to taste the tomato-braised fish that Chris had made, and it tasted quite good.
Perhaps, as he had just seen, Chris's cooking skills were clearly influenced by Eiffel's guidance.
No, it should be said that the people in the kitchen were all instructed by Eiffel.
It was obvious that, apart from Sylph, the others present were all aware of their own culinary skills.
Therefore, while eating the thick soup, bread, and stewed fish, everyone was actually a little apprehensive.
However, upon seeing the seafood paella that Eiffel had prepared as the main dish, the group began to relax.
A delightful aroma wafts towards you; the seafood rice is filled with carefully prepared fresh shrimp, squid, shellfish, and other seafood.
After serving the food to the group, Eiffel did not stop.
She then began peeling the shrimp shells off Gu Xinghe.
The scene before her eyes clearly reminded Chris of something she had done before.
"Eiffel, bribing the referee like that is not acceptable."
So, Chris then began to use a cooking competition as a pretext to stop Eiffel's actions.
"But I was just fulfilling my duties as a maid."
Eiffel's eyes were clear, and she seemed puzzled by Chris's "accusation".
They didn't feel that there was anything wrong with their behavior.
Under that gaze, even Chris, who initially thought she was in the right, felt that she was corrupting an innocent girl.
But for Eiffel now, such a description doesn't seem inappropriate.
