The little girl clearly used psychological manipulation on him, but he was powerless to refute it.
The judges must have been bribed by this young lady.
She owns two shops at such a young age, and Luo Yi treats her with utmost respect.
No matter what, I can't win today. He has the talent of a chef and has reached this level in just three years.
But what good is talent?
No matter how hard you try, you'll always be poor and never be able to climb the social ladder.
He was about to leave, looking utterly dejected.
How could Xiaoxi let him leave? Xiaoxi wanted to make him lose convincingly.
Xiao Xi snapped her fingers at Chen Xu's retreating figure.
Chen Xu's feet suddenly felt like they were filled with lead, and he stopped right in front of Ye Zhongnan's control panel.
Ye Zhongnan casually ladled out a bowl of stew from an iron pot and handed it to him.
Then Chen Xu uncontrollably took the bowl of food. Seeing that the colors and patterns in the bowl were almost perfect, he couldn't resist the temptation and picked up a piece of food.
Suddenly the whole world fell silent.
Just then, it was time for the contestants to sample the food freely, and all the chefs present gathered around Ye Zhongnan's iron pot stew.
Everyone who ate Ye Zhongnan's iron pot stew was completely won over.
They all thought Chen Xu was a stubborn, unyielding rock.
He usually has a cold and arrogant demeanor, and he thinks too highly of himself. As a chef, this is precisely the biggest taboo when learning a craft.
They suddenly noticed that Chen Xu's eyes turned red as he ate.
Ye Zhongnan looked at Chen Xu and suddenly smiled gently.
"I tasted your Tai'an fish, and its color, aroma, and flavor were all excellent. If I really had to find fault with it, it would be that you were too impatient and the cooking time was a little lacking."
Chen Xu suddenly burst into tears. Five years ago, someone had said the same thing to him.
They say he's always impatient for quick success and instant benefits, and they really hope he can change that.
Unfortunately, the person who said those words is no longer with us.
Chen Xu suddenly knelt down in front of Ye Zhongnan with a thud.
"Mr. Ye, I was wrong, I was terribly wrong, can you forgive me?"
Ye Zhongnan was startled, and thought that his sister had done something to make this person change so much.
Xiaoxi shook her head at her brother; she had only asked the man to stay and try her second brother's cooking.
If he's not allowed to experience what a master chef's skills are like, he'll resent his second brother for the rest of his life. That's just too pointless.
Xiaoxi never expected Chen Xu's reaction to be so intense.
"This was just an easy game, there's no need to worry so much about winning or losing. I don't blame you, so there's no question of forgiveness."
Ye Zhongnan helped Chen Xu up, and Chen Xu stood there blankly.
He no longer cares about the competition venue, but naturally someone will clean it up.
The awards ceremony was about to begin.
The judges just announced Ye Zhongnan as the champion, and later they finally got to taste Chen Xu's Tai'an fish.
The taste was also good, and besides, he was the champion of the previous year, so they would give him some recognition as usual.
Therefore, Chen Xu came in second place.
Another hardworking chef suddenly emerged as a dark horse and won third place.
As the awards ceremony began, the third-place winner went on stage first. Overwhelmed with joy, the third-place winner tripped and fell as he stepped onto the stage.
The atmosphere immediately became lively.
Chen Xu accepted the second-place trophy with shame and dejection.
Ye Zhongnan, the first-place winner, went on stage to receive his award and gave an acceptance speech.
"I owe my success to my younger sister, Xiaoxi, so I want to give my Chef God trophy to her!"
Everyone present was moved by Ye Zhongnan; he truly deserves to be called a master chef.
