Not to mention the female celebrities, the netizens watching the live stream were also incredibly curious:
"Is there something delicious next to this big tree? I don't see it."
"Yeah, I looked for ages and couldn't find anything edible, let alone delicious!"
"Could it be that the delicious food Director Xu was talking about is inside this big tree? Otherwise, I really can't think of any other place."
"I can't wait to see what food they found, and whether they'll be able to eat their fill..."
...
"Well, I think things might be different from what everyone imagines. Ahem, let's see!"
"Wow, sure enough, the food that Director Xu was talking about was actually inside this big tree."
"Wait, something's not right right now. What good food could be inside a big tree, unless..."
"Holy crap! This is edible? That's terrifying!"
It turned out that they were surrounded by onlookers.
Our General Manager Xu used the small knife in his hand to begin operating on the fallen tree.
Large chunks of wood were dug out, revealing a light brown internal structure.
Meanwhile, sharp-eyed netizens have already spotted the winding traces inside the tree.
The next moment, a plump, white worm was picked out by our boss Xu with a twig.
This big bug is probably ten centimeters long and as thick as a little finger. It's constantly wriggling and looks very energetic.
Seeing this, netizens were naturally quite frightened.
But the most impactful presence was undoubtedly the four female celebrities present.
Dilraba was the first to scream, followed by her younger cousin Yang Mi and Liu Yifei. Finally, even Boss Yang couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:
"Xu Lu, what are you doing? Throw it away right now! This bug is terrifying!"
"Brother Xu is so mean! He deliberately used bugs to scare us. He's really wicked. Let's ignore him!"
My younger cousin, Yang Mi, hid behind Boss Yang and kept shouting.
Reba also came to her senses and loudly denounced:
"Xu Lu, are you trying to get yourself killed? Is this worm in your hand the delicious food you're talking about?"
"Mr. Xu, please throw away the bug quickly! You've scared everyone!"
Even Liu Yifei, unusually, offered some advice this time.
Seeing the four big stars' performance, Xu Lu was speechless, but he still put the bug back where it was and said:
"Alright, alright, I was just demonstrating for you, I'm not actually letting you eat it."
Besides, when food is scarce, these insects are incredibly nutritious!
"Who's talking about nutrition? This...who would dare eat this stuff? It's disgusting!"
Dilraba replied irritably, not believing Xu Lu was telling the truth at all.
The others nodded in agreement, clearly showing that they agreed with Dilraba's opinion.
Xu Lu smiled and said:
"That's because you haven't tried it yet. Once you've eaten it, you'll find that this thing... is truly disgusting, hahaha!"
Everyone was speechless.
You know it's disgusting, yet you deliberately create this to disgust us. That's utterly disgusting!
They had initially thought Xu Lu was going to make a turn for the better, but while a turn did occur, it wasn't in the direction they had imagined.
The viewers in the live stream were also quite surprised by this scene:
"Holy crap, I never expected Director Xu to have such a mischievous side. I was really disgusted by him just now."
"Yes, who would have thought that the delicacy he was talking about was actually a big worm picked from inside a tree!"
"Luckily I wasn't there, otherwise I might have screamed even louder than the goddess..."
"Who says it isn't? Such a big worm is scary to look at, not to mention that Director Xu actually said he wanted to eat it."
...
"I originally thought Director Xu had really discovered something delicious, but now I realize that I've been tricked by him."
"This guy fooled everyone, everyone was eagerly waiting to see the delicious food."
What they found was a large, wriggling worm; the contrast was too great.
"Ahem, let me say something to Director Xu. Actually, these big insects are indeed edible and highly nutritious."
Besides, haven't you ever tried deep-fried or grilled insects and spiders? They're really delicious!
"Damn, that guy upstairs must be from Nanyun or Gangxi!"
...
Just as netizens started discussing whether insects were edible, Xu Lu continued:
"Of course, I mean it's disgusting to eat raw, but it tastes much better if you grill it."
"The chicken-like crunchiness perfectly describes the texture of these worms after they've been roasted until charred. Raise your hand if you want to try it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an awkward silence, because nobody wanted to try this kind of weird stuff.
Even if it's disgusting, the four girls present would not eat insects.
Xu Lu chuckled dryly and said:
"Ahem, since no one dares to try, let's move on to the next location!"
"Brother Xu, it's okay if we don't try it. You can try it yourself. We won't stop you!"
My quirky little cousin, Yang Mi, suddenly spoke up.
This immediately started a lively discussion among everyone, and Dilraba joined in the fun, saying:
"That's right, didn't you say the chicken flavor is crunchy? We'll wait for you here, and you can grill one right here and have it."
"That's right, Mr. Xu, if you say it's delicious, then let us try one first and see, and then we'll decide whether to eat it or not!"
Liu Yifei has already spoken up.
