That is, let Group A prepare 100 small cakes for them to boost their sales.

But when teammate Zhang Yang made this suggestion, Lin Xue refused without even thinking about it.

Lin Xue is the most proud and leisurely apprentice of the famous chef Wu Hui, and she has her own pride and aloofness.

so.

When it comes to food, based on her own strength, she has strong enough confidence in her cooking skills.

The restaurant in my group has been open for five days and the operation is already on track. Their restaurant does not have a good location or high traffic like the restaurant in Group B.

But over the past few days, she has relied on her outstanding abilities to both retain customers and attract new ones. The restaurant they run will continue to do better and better.

She didn't need Sheng Yuan's cake, there was no need, and to be honest, she didn't... think much of it.

The real thoughts in one's heart will naturally not be expressed out loud.

Lin Xue smiled and said politely, "Everyone has worked hard, go to bed early."

According to the normal process, once the settlement process is over, today's live broadcast will almost end. After she finished speaking, she turned around and called her teammate Zhang Yang, preparing to go upstairs to the conference room to discuss the new menu.

Seeing this, Zheng Baiqing and Qun Jie from Group B also stood up.

In the gap of getting up.

Zheng Baiqing raised her eyes and secretly glanced at Sheng Yuan who was sitting on the sofa at the edge.

It was hard to describe the meaning of that look, it seemed... pity, but also more like, laughing at a joke.

It's really hard for Group A to have ended up in this situation.

Zheng Baiqing heard that they even gave away the last of their 'ingredients', the flour and yeast, for free today.

Although Zheng Baiqing was reluctant to admit it, many customers today came for the small cakes made by Sheng Yuan.

I took advantage of the little cake, but I couldn't help feeling jealous.

Zheng Baiqing noticed that when Lin Xue said she would give up the task of formulating the punishment, Sheng Yuan looked indifferent and didn't even frown.

A calm look as if he could handle the task with or without punishment.

Zheng Baiqing curled her lips. I really don’t know where she got the calmness from.

Before Zheng Baiqing could look away.

Suddenly, a staff member ran in from the door of the first floor of the small western-style building and shouted, "Sheng Yuan, someone is looking for you outside."

“Here I come.”

Facing everyone's curious gazes, Sheng Yuan stood up from the sofa, followed by Shi Yan. The two of them walked towards the door and walked down the stairs.

The director was very cautious. He stared at the door for two seconds, narrowed his eyes, and told a staff member, "Go and have a look."

The staff immediately followed.

Less than a minute passed.

He ran in, his face still full of surprise: "...Director, someone is here to deliver food to Group A."

As soon as these words were spoken, the voice fell.

The whole hall was silent for a moment.

Everyone's attention was diverted.

Lin Xue, Zhang Yang, Zheng Baiqing and other four people who had just stepped onto the stairs also stopped what they were doing.

He turned his head in disbelief, wondering if he had heard it wrong.

Deliver food to Group A? ! ! !

Almost without saying a word, everyone walked towards the door tacitly and impatiently. -The small western-style building where the guests lived.

A medium-sized three-wheeled truck was parked outside the courtyard.

A man in work clothes jumped off the three-wheeled truck: "My last name is Sheng, Miss Sheng, right?"

Sheng Yuan hummed.

The man smiled and said, "The goods are all here. Please take a look first. Take a look at these, okay?"

Just then everyone arrived at the door, following the man's line of sight, everyone's eyes fell on the back of the three-wheeled truck.

I saw that the back of the truck was filled with all kinds of packaged fresh vegetables, rice, and meat.

"Very good, thank you." Sheng Yuan thanked the man.

Then, he took out his phone and clicked on a location: "These things are going to be delivered to you here, right?"

The director hurried over, seized the opportunity, and immediately stepped forward. With his sharp eyes, he accurately captured the man's mobile phone screen.

His eyes widened.

The location displayed is exactly——

The house numbers of Group A restaurants.

These ingredients are to be delivered here.

Sheng Yuan replied to the man: "Yes, that's right."

The man took back his phone: "Okay."

Sheng Yuan immediately handed over another key and said, "Happy cooperation."

The man got on the tricycle and nodded enthusiastically: "It's a pleasure to work with you."

The tricycle started and sped away, leaving behind exhaust gas.

Sheng Yuan looked up at Shi Yan and said, "Shi Yan, let's go back."

Shi Yan nodded slightly and responded in a low voice: "Yeah."

The two of them acted as if no one was around, completely ignoring the gazes from all around them, and headed back to the small western-style building.

"etc--"

The director turned around and blocked the two men's way.

"Guests in Group A, don't you have anything to say?"

Sheng Yuan paused and asked in confusion: "Say? What?"

The director raised his hand and pointed in the direction where the tricycle disappeared: "Those things, those ingredients, where did you get them from?"

"You guys don't have any money, so you're not going to buy it?"

He didn't even wait for Sheng Yuan to speak.

The director narrowed his eyes and speculated based on his own subjective consciousness: "Could it be that when you were setting up the small cakes, you secretly collected money from tourists? And then bought those things?"

"What you are doing is against the program rules and is not allowed."

Not far from the main entrance.

There were four other pairs of eyes also staring at this side.

It was the four guests from groups B and C. When they saw the three-wheeled truck delivering the food, their faces were filled with surprise and questions.

I don’t know where Group A got all these ingredients from.

Then when they heard the director say this, they actually thought the same way and couldn't help but agree with what the director said.

Could it be that——

Group A actually did this little trick.

Otherwise, how could they have managed to find themselves in such a dire situation on their own?

Then, Sheng Yuan sneered, "Director, you were sitting in the monitoring room today, weren't you staring at our live studio all day?"

"You should know better than anyone here whether we have received any money or not."

"How do you know I've been watching it all day--" the director added subconsciously, but after quickly reacting, he suddenly stopped talking.

He was extremely shocked that his past was exposed by Sheng Yuan.

She installed surveillance cameras in the program group’s monitoring room???

Sheng Yuan did not answer the director.

He turned his head, looked around, and then stopped: "You, come here."

“Okay, okay—”

The photographer from Group A came running over happily.
