Yan Muhuai's words put an end to the conversation. Jiang Li lost his temper and threw the peeled ingredients into the basket, not planning to help anymore.
Fortunately, Yan Muhuai already knew what to do. The three vegetables had to be blanched before being mixed with cold salad, while the lettuce and radish could be mixed directly.
However, he didn't know how to control the degree of blanching, so he turned the heat to the highest setting and almost boiled the potatoes, taro and yam into a paste.
The two of them were busy with their own things and no one spoke, and the atmosphere was very awkward for a while.
Some people in the barrage were gloating, some scolded Yan Muhuai for not knowing how to chat, and some were fascinated by the way Jiang Li cooked.
But the director felt that this was not going to work, so he took the initiative to cue Yan Muhuai.
"Mu Huai, can you use the skill you gained from finding the mission cards yesterday to predict the outcome of the four groups completing their missions outside?" the director asked, holding a loudspeaker.
Yan Muhuai’s five cold dishes were ready. Although they didn’t look very appetizing, his mission was accomplished.
Then he stood by the stove, watching Jiang Li cook while answering the director's questions.
"Is this a new task assigned to me by the director? They get points for completing tasks. If you give me points, I can answer you." Yan Muhuai didn't want to be taken advantage of for free.
The director was speechless. He wanted to increase Yan Muhuai's popularity, but Yan Muhuai refused to accept the offer and even bargained with him!
He saw that in Yan Muhuai's live broadcast room, some people wanted to hear Yan Muhuai's predictions, while some people opposed him giving Yan Muhuai special treatment, which put him in a dilemma for a while.
After thinking for a moment, he directly pulled out Yan Muhuai's partner Jiang Li to block the knife.
"Jiang Li also wants to know, so just think of it as answering his questions. What you said just now offended others, so shouldn't you do something to make up for it?" The director shamelessly performed PUA on Yan Muhuai.
Yan Muhuai didn't buy it and was about to refuse when the director said to Jiang Li, "Jiang Li, you want to know too, right?"
Jiang Li is different from Yan Muhuai. He cares about his reputation and popularity. He was able to appear on this variety show because he made a deal with Yan Xunyi against his will, so he does not have the ability to disobey the director.
"Yes, I want to know too." Even though he was in a terrible mood and just wanted to cook seriously and not care about anything else, he still said what the director said.
Fortunately, cooking can help him calm down his irritable heart. As for the game between the director and Yan Muhuai, he cannot participate. He just acts as a messenger in the middle. It is up to Yan Muhuai himself to make the decision.
"Since Jiang Li wants to know, I'll just make a random guess!" Yan Muhuai gave an answer that surprised Jiang Li.
Jiang Li didn't think he had such a great deal of face, but Yan Muhuai just wanted to give it to him.
Thirty-five was also a little curious, "Master Host, do you care so much about Jiang Li?"
Yan Muhuai scolded him mercilessly, "Are you a pig? If I don't build a good relationship with him, how can I let him take me to see his mother who should have been dead but is still alive?"
Thirty-five quickly reacted, "Yeah! Those are merit points!"
Yan Muhuai also didn't expect that he, a ghost lord who could call the wind and rain in the other world, would actually try to please others for a few merit points after traveling back.
"Host, I can broadcast the live broadcast images of the other four groups and the barrage of comments in their live broadcast rooms for you in your mind. Do you want to see it?" Thirty-five wanted to help Yan Muhuai judge the rankings of the other four groups more accurately.
But it was also a little worried that Yan Muhuai would get angry when he saw the sporadic comments cursing him in other live broadcast rooms.
"No need." Yan Muhuai answered simply.
You don't need to watch the live broadcast in person to make a judgment on this matter.
He simply told the director: "You need to first tell me the tasks assigned to each group."
The director was a little surprised. "So you don't know what the mission is? Then why did you let Jin Yu choose mission number three? Did you know that mission is the farthest from Shaoyaoju?"
Long distances mean tasks take longer to complete.
When fans of Jin Yu and Zi Yan heard Yan Muhuai talking about this with the director, they couldn't help but rush to Yan Muhuai's live broadcast room and started to criticize him again, thinking that he had harmed Jin Yu.
Because the program team had stipulated in advance that students could not take taxis to complete the tasks, and could only ask for help from passers-by.
Jin Yu and her friends were originally quite lucky. As soon as they went out, they met an uncle riding a tricycle. The uncle was very enthusiastic and agreed to take them to their destination. However, halfway through the journey, the uncle's tricycle broke down. Now, not only did Jin Yu and Zi Yan lose their means of transportation, they also had to help the uncle push the tricycle.
Now the two of them haven't even reached the mission location, but they are almost exhausted to death on the road from pushing the cart.
In contrast, the other three groups, Yan Xunyi and Qin Shulang, who set out last, have already arrived at their destination and are ready to complete their mission.
"Has anyone completed the task now?" Yan Muhuai asked instead of answering.
The director was about to answer when he suddenly felt Yan Muhuai was trying to trick him and stopped himself. "Didn't I ask you to make a prediction? Why are you asking me?"
"Since no one has completed the mission, how do you know that the mission farthest away is necessarily the worst? Maybe they will turn a disaster into a blessing?" Yan Muhuai answered nonchalantly while watching Jiang Li cook seriously.
Seeing how seriously he was watching, the cameraman gave a close-up of Jiang Li cooking, perfectly presenting Jiang Li's heroic figure to the audience, which drew a burst of praise from the audience in the barrage.
"Mu Huai, you're being too cryptic. I'll tell you their mission instructions, so just tell me the results!" The director was completely eager to watch the fun and not mind making things worse. "Today's mission cards only have one sentence and one coordinate. They need to find the specific clues themselves to complete the mission. The four sentences are: find a bouquet of flowers, find a tree, find a dish, and find a person."
The third task that Jin Yu drew was to find a tree, Yan Xunyi and Qin Shulang drew to find a bouquet of flowers, Qiu Yiming's group drew to find a dish, and finally Cen Jing's group drew to find a person.
"These tasks sound so complicated. Fortunately, we don't have to go out." After Jiang Li stewed the meat he had just fried, he couldn't help but sigh after hearing what the director said.
But he didn't have to go through the scorching sun to complete the mission, all thanks to Yan Muhuai's brilliant plan. He should be grateful.
"It's okay for me." Yan Muhuai is a native of Huaicheng. As soon as he heard these prompts, he knew what the task assigned by the program team was.
The director urged, "So, Mu Huai, do you have an answer?"
He saw that netizens were opening the market in the barrage. After looking at the task progress of each group, they ranked them in the following order: Qiu Yiming's group first, Cen Jing's group second, Yan Xunyi's group third, and Jin Yu's group fourth.
But the result Yan Muhuai said was different. He said: "Jin Yu's group is first, Qiu Yiming's group is second, Yan Xunyi's group is third, and Cen Jing's group is fourth."
"So Mu Huai still insists that Jin Yu and her team return first?" The director laughed. "But the information I've received is that they still don't know what their mission is, while Qiu Yiming and his team are almost done."
Yan Muhuai nodded and said, "Yes, I insist. Qiu Yiming's dish is not that easy to make, and the person Cen Jing and the others are looking for is not that easy to find either."
