In the kitchen, Zhou Yiyang and Tang Yue looked at each other, and then saw a hint of panic in each other's eyes.
Then they turned their heads at the same time and looked at Su Yin.
"What are you looking at me for?" Su Yin had already started washing her hands, ready to help. "Wait, you're not expecting me to do it, are you?"
"You're a good eater, aren't you?" Zhou Yiyang raised his eyebrows. "People who know how to eat are usually pretty good at cooking."
However, these words made no sense to Su Yin. She shook her head almost immediately after hearing them and said, "I really have no talent for cooking. Brother Yang, I remember you were a good cook!"
At this time, Zhou Yiyang touched his nose and said reluctantly, "My cooking skills are really average. I'm not lying to you. It's mainly because I haven't cooked for a long time, so my cooking skills have declined significantly."
At this time, Wang Xingrui and Lin Xuaner took a chair and sat at the door, just watching the three of them discuss, as if they were judges on a recording show.
"Are they really okay?" Lin Xuan'er watched their discussion and suddenly felt a surge of sympathy. They needed to eat later, and if the food was truly unpalatable, she would be the one who would be hurt.
"Look," Wang Xingrui said calmly, "Doesn't Brother Yang trust us this way every time we practice singing?"
Lin Xuan'er chuckled and whispered in Wang Xingrui's ear, "You're using your power to take personal revenge. I'll go and complain to you later!"
After hearing Zhou Yiyang's words, Tang Yue was like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw and refused to let go: "Brother Yang, then you can be the head chef! Xiao Xiaosu and I will assist you!"
Zhou Yiyang wasn't stupid. If he really agreed, he'd be exhausted. "Well, I'll make two more dishes, but you all have to show off your cooking skills. We're all here, so just treat it like a game."
"Okay!" Su Yin agreed, and then her eyes rolled, as if she had thought of something interesting. "I just saw an interesting recipe a while ago, so I'll give it a try!"
Tang Yue had no choice but to agree. She mobilized the connections she had accumulated in the entertainment industry over the past three years and asked for help directly on her WeChat Moments:
[Team-building cooking competition, help! Can someone give me a simple yet stylish recipe?]
The first person to reply to Tang Yue was her father. Apparently, this martial arts gym owner, who was in good physical condition, was checking his phone intensively every day.
"Baby, let's make braised pork ribs! This is a famous dish in Northeast China!"
"Dad!" Tang Yue replied quickly: "I forgot to mention that I'm in America now, and there don't seem to be any big bones in the refrigerator! But there is a lot of beef!"
At this time, the other party directly called her via video. When she picked up the phone, she found that it was her mother looking at her: "Beef, it's very simple, just make dumplings!"
Tang Yue burst out laughing. Oh, what about her? She knows how to make dumplings! That's a talent that runs in her blood!
There is also a meat grinder in the kitchen, so it is easy to make meat filling.
So Tang's mother directly sent the proportions of the filling to Tang Yue.
If Tang Yue chose to seek external help, then Su Yin chose to trust her intuition.
The dish she wanted to make was actually not difficult, it was boiled pork slices.
The only trouble was that the recipe prescribed the appropriate amounts of various seasonings, leaving Su Yin to figure out the right proportions on her own.
But Su Yin is quite confident in herself, after all, she has always had good luck.
Zhou Yiyang watched as both of them began to cook in an orderly manner, and he suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
He thought about it and decided to make a famous Sichuan dish first, which is also a home-cooked dish that Sichuan people have been eating since childhood - twice-cooked pork.
I have to say that it is really convenient for the owner of this villa to be from China. There are many kinds of seasonings in the refrigerator, including common ones in China and many spices from India.
There was pork, but the quality seemed average, mostly white pork. To be honest, Zhou Yiyang preferred black pork, which tasted more fragrant.
When Wang Xingrui and Lin Xuaner found that the three of them started cooking in an orderly manner, they both showed surprise in their eyes.
"They are quite adaptable!" Lin Xuan'er had just joked with Wang Xingrui, saying that they wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer!
"Indeed," Wang Xingrui nodded beside her. "So they all know how to cook, but they just lack the opportunity to show it off."
Originally, they were ready to stop them before they blew up the kitchen.
But now, they just need to wait quietly and they will get a sumptuous dinner.
An hour later, three people delivered five dishes to the table.
Zhou Yiyang then added two very simple dishes, one was pickled mustard greens and minced meat, and the other was scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
It can be said to be quite homely. Except for Su Yin's boiled pork slices which is considered a main dish, the others on the table are what everyone usually eats.
Compared to what they had eaten outside these days, the food seemed a little less fancy, but everyone seemed to have a full appetite.
"It smells really good!" Wang Xingrui ran over, took a deep breath, and immediately showed excitement on her face: "You guys are amazing!"
However, Tang Yue didn't fall for it at all. She said calmly, "Ruirui, no matter how much you praise us, there's still a huge gap between us and you."
"Come and try it!" Zhou Yiyang said with anticipation. He really wanted to hear what they thought of his cooking skills. "Be sure to be fair and just. Don't consider my identity."
Everyone nodded and stretched out their chopsticks to try the twice-cooked pork first.
Zhou Yiyang stared at them intently and even forgot to eat.
Fortunately, they tasted it quickly, looked at Zhou Yiyang, and said with a smile: "It's delicious!"
Su Yin put down her chopsticks and wiped the corners of her mouth, looking like a gourmet: "The quality of the meat is a little off, but it tastes really good. Brother Yang, you're amazing!"
Zhou Yiyang then began to eat with peace of mind: "It's okay, just showing off a little bit. Let's go for a walk around the neighborhood after dinner!"
"Where are we going?" Lin Xuan'er asked curiously. "Are we going to the houses where movies have been filmed? That would be interesting."
"That's great," Tang Yue immediately raised her hand. "We can recreate classic scenes in those places. I'm sure they'll get a lot of positive reviews once we post them!"
"It's all right." Zhou Yiyang said gently, "Cherish these few days. At the end of the year, all the celebrities in the circle, big and small, will be busy."
The four of them understood, after all, the next step was the time for all the major evening parties to compete with each other.
