156:
Ji Qingzhou didn't have such a strong desire to win. Rather than worrying about winning or losing, he wanted to have a good rest for a while. After all, he had cooked eight dishes and he was indeed a little tired.
After everyone had eaten their fill, the host reminded everyone that there was still such a thing as voting, "Let's start with Jingxing."
Lian Jingxing walked behind him. The staff had already prepared paper and pen. Lian Jingxing wrote Liu Zixin's name, folded it and put it in the ballot box. With his demonstration, others also walked over and wrote the chef's name and put it in the ballot box.
The host was the last one to write. After he finished writing and put it into the ballot box, he shook it and started counting the votes.
Ji Qingzhou and Liu Zixin were both a little nervous at this time. They listened to the host opening the paper and reading the names, one by one, and their hearts were slowly tightened.
"Liu Zixin, Ji Qingzhou." The host read out the names on the last two pieces of paper.
The staff member in charge of recording handed him the whiteboard. He couldn't help but laugh when he saw it, and pointed the whiteboard towards the camera: "Ji Qingzhou got 1 vote, Liu Zixin got 11 votes. It seems that Ji Qingzhou is the winner this time."
Ji Qingzhou and Chu Cheng laughed instantly and looked at each other. Yu Anyi also shouted "Yeah", and the other people on their team breathed a sigh of relief. But Liu Zixin's people were disappointed. Liu Zitong felt a little uncomfortable. She unconsciously looked at her brother. Liu Zixin comforted her, "Victory and defeat are common in the military."
"But," the host suddenly said, "the extra vote for Qingzhou was cast by me. What does this mean? It means that the players of both teams actually voted for their own chefs. Because in this competition, the players of both teams and the chefs have already become a whole. You picked the dishes to cook, and you helped the chef to cook the rice. It is not easy to cook eight dishes. You saw his hard work and felt that he was the best chef, so you voted for him. This is the best affirmation for the chef who has been busy all morning. This is the charm of a team."
"Everyone comes to this variety show, so we are a team. This variety show is like cooking. You are the best chefs, and we are the ones who help you cook. I hope that in the end, we can make dishes that satisfy everyone like today."
He suddenly spoke so emotionally that the guests present were actually moved for a moment. They thought about what had happened from the recording to the present and lamented their experiences over the past two years.
Liu Zitong was the fastest to pull himself out of the sentimental atmosphere and asked him loudly, "Then why did you vote for Ji Qingzhou instead of my brother?"
"That's very simple," the host said with a smile, "because I don't participate in any of your teamwork. I just eat purely by feeling, and my taste tends to lean more towards him."
Hearing this, Liu Zitong turned around and comforted his brother, "It's okay, brother. Maybe you'll win if you change the host. It's just one vote anyway."
The host pretended to be surprised, "You what?"
"I'd like to apply to change the host. My brother is good at spicy food, so let's change him to someone who can eat spicy food!" Liu Zitong raised his hand.
"Ji Qingzhou is also good at spicy dishes. If someone else comes, he might still win." Yu Anyi said unwillingly.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, and the competition that had been lively for the whole morning finally came to an end.
In the afternoon, everyone helped the villagers to dry fruits, make jam, and played a game. Then they finished the recording and went home to rest.
Chu Cheng thought there would be a bonfire party or something like that in the evening, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't get any notification. "So we won't record it in the evening?"
"That should be it." Ji Qingzhou said, "It's so late, we should have started recording a long time ago. Besides, I remember when the host asked us to come back, he didn't say anything like meeting us in the evening."
Chu Cheng couldn't believe it. He had saved his stomach for a midnight snack. What should he do now?
Ji Qingzhou saw that he looked melancholy and asked, "What's wrong with you? Do you want to participate?"
"I want to have a midnight snack." Chu Cheng said truthfully, "I thought there would be midnight snacks since there was a bonfire party, but I didn't expect there wouldn't be any."
"No wonder you didn't let me cook at night. Two boxes of instant noodles are enough for us."
"I just feel sorry for you," Chu Cheng said, "You must be so tired. I cooked eight dishes this morning."
He felt tired when he thought of the scenes in the morning, "I couldn't bear to let you cook eight dishes at home."
The two of them had already turned off the camera and took off the microphone, and the cameraman was not there, so there was no need to be cautious when talking.
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that he had been starving himself because of this. Hearing this, he prepared to get out of bed and cook for him, "Wait, I'll go fry the leftover rice from yesterday for you."
"No, no, no." Chu Cheng quickly pulled him back, "Don't bother with that late at night. I'm not that hungry."
"fine."
"Really not necessary," Chu Cheng stopped him, "Go to sleep, you won't be hungry when you sleep."
"You really don't want to eat?" Ji Qingzhou looked at him.
Chu Cheng nodded, "It's too late, stop struggling and go to sleep."
Seeing that he insisted, Ji Qingzhou had no choice but to go wash up with him and prepare for bed. However, not long after lying down, he heard a "gurgling" sound from Chu Cheng's stomach.
Ji Qingzhou looked up at Chu Cheng.
Chu Cheng was calm and said, "What are you looking at me for?"
"Did you hear any noise?"
"I didn't. Was there any sound?" Chu Cheng refused to admit it.
