"Alas! If it weren't for Mengyun's desire to eat the stewed goose, I'd have traded this tomato and egg scrambled eggs for it, no matter what." Seeing that the others were already getting restless, Xia Tian immediately added fuel to the fire. Not only did his words reveal a deep reluctance to part with the dish, but his chopsticks weren't idle either, as he took another bite and began to eat.
Seeing that Xia Tian was speaking sincerely, they couldn't hold back their curiosity and picked up the chopsticks in front of them.
He Yunting, who had just tasted Qiu Mengyun's cooking, was undoubtedly the most curious of the group. She couldn't understand how someone's cooking skills could be so inconsistent, with such huge discrepancies.
He Yunting picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of egg into her mouth without any hesitation.
Seeing her pick up her chopsticks first, the others paused in unison and looked at her expectantly, wanting to hear He Yunting's honest evaluation of the dish.
As soon as He Yunting put the egg in her mouth, she knew she had been tricked. This was not some rare delicacy at all, it was clearly a dark dish even more disgusting than the previous smashed cucumber.
But this time she did not spit out the egg in her mouth immediately. She was very upset after being deceived twice in a row.
I felt even more embarrassed and annoyed that I couldn't control my curiosity and was the first to pick up the food.
So she immediately decided that such a "superb delicacy" could not be enjoyed by herself alone. Since Xia Tian could trick her and make her fall for it, she could continue to trick others, letting the rest of them experience the ultimate taste bud stimulation and the fear of being dominated by Qiu Mengyun.
After a brief pause, He Yunting continued chewing with a calm expression.
After slowly swallowing the egg in her mouth, she did not look at the others, but turned to look at Qiu Mengyun.
With a look of surprise, he exclaimed: "Wow! Mengyun, you are so amazing. I never thought that such delicious food could be made by you."
"To be honest, if I hadn't been there the entire time, I really wouldn't believe that this tomato scrambled eggs and the yellow flower patty were made by the same person."
When Xia Tian praised her just now, Qiu Mengyun was a little surprised and confused, thinking that he might have said that on purpose to please her.
But now He Yunting, who had just complained about her cooking being bad, also said this, which made her a little confused.
Although she was filled with doubts, she felt embarrassed not to respond to such praise. She immediately said awkwardly, "Sister Yunting, please stop praising me. I just made it casually. Speaking of which, I should apologize to you. If my cooking skills weren't so poor, you wouldn't have choked and cried just now."
He Yunting waved her hand nonchalantly: "Hey! That's all in the past, let's not talk about it. Just being able to eat your scrambled eggs with tomatoes makes all the suffering I went through before worth it."
"Besides, it's not your fault. It's my own fault for not having good taste. I missed out on such delicious soul scrambled eggs and chose the smashed cucumber instead."
Thanks to He Yunting's deliberate efforts, the atmosphere between the two of them became extremely harmonious.
After seeing He Yunting's reaction, the others became more convinced of Xia Tian's words. After all, if Xia Tian was lying to them, it was understandable, as he was trying to save his girlfriend's face.
But if He Yunting lied to them, that didn't make sense at all! They were all guests, and He Yunting didn't know Qiu Mengyun well before, so there was no need to try to please her. What's more, it was He Yunting who said that Qiu Mengyun's smashed cucumber was not tasty.
The second person who couldn't hold back was He Yunting's boyfriend Xie Jinglong.
He is also a food lover. Not only does he like to cook, he also often takes He Yunting to various places to enjoy local famous dishes. However, he has been to many star-rated hotels and has eaten many dishes cooked by industry masters. This is the first time he has seen He Yunting react so strongly to a dish and praise it so highly.
"Oh? Is it so delicious? I rarely hear Yunting praising other people's cooking skills. Let me also try this dish called Soul Scrambled Eggs. What's the magic about it?" Xie Jinglong said with a smile as he picked up some food.
Seeing that her boyfriend was the first to jump into the pit, He Yunting kindly touched him with her arm, wanting to remind him to take less.
But at this moment, Xie Jinglong was completely blinded by his strong curiosity and didn't notice He Yunting's little movements at all.
With one chopstick, he picked up a large piece of tomato and egg.
"Ah! This..."
As soon as the food entered his mouth, Xie Jinglong realized something was wrong. However, He Yunting, who had worked so hard to act for so long, could not just watch him ruin her plan.
Just when Xie Jinglong was about to tell the truth, she quickly twisted Xie Jinglong's thigh with her hand under the table, instantly interrupting her next words.
"hiss!"
Xie Jinglong gasped in pain.
Seeing his reaction, Fang Wenxuan and Chen Qingqing, who were about to pick up some food, immediately stopped using their chopsticks and looked at him in confusion.
At this moment, Xie Jinglong had already understood what his girlfriend He Yunting was thinking, and he also knew that he had almost been exposed.
So he quickly tried to make amends, "This... such an ordinary dish, how could it be so delicious? This doesn't make sense. Is this really scrambled eggs with tomatoes?"
"Mengyun, after the show, you must teach me how to make this dish. Don't keep it secret. I'll make it for Yunting every day after I learn it."
Although he behaved a little strangely at first when he didn't know the truth, after he decided to cooperate with his girlfriend to keep it a secret, Xie Jinglong's acting skills were instantly activated. Not only were his expressions and tones very accurate, but even his excuses were so perfect.
