Without giving Yun Liu a chance to speak, Shi Xiu jumped up happily, grabbed Yun Liu’s hand, and gushed, “Oh my! It’s amazing to et you here! This is great, Yun Liu. I didn’t expect that we would be able to participate in a show together!”

Yun Liu had no idea what Shi Xiu was up to. She had humiliated her in the boutique two days ago, so why was she acting like they were sisters today? ‘ What is going on? Yun Liu wondered. She didn’t even know how she should respond to Shi Xiu.

While she was dazed, Shi Xiu had already let go of her hand, looking slightly hurt before she imdiately smiled and greeted the chefs, “Mr. Si Kun, Mr. Xiao Zhao, it’s Shi Xiu! I’m here!” Shi Xiu then strode into the kitchen and left the dumbfounded Yun Liu there.

Si Kun smiled as he cooked. “Alright, I know you’re here. Don’t get too close. We wouldn’t want you to get burned by the oil,” he cautioned.

Xiao Zhao also smiled and stated, “Just stand there and behave yourself. It’s fine as long as I know you’ve arrived.”

Shi Xiu giggled. “You know each other?” Hai Hua asked curiously.

Shi Xiu nodded and answered, “Mr. Si Kun taught us acting lessons in the past, and Mr. Xiao Zhao is my parents’ idol!”

Hai Hua chuckled, “You didn’t expect to et them here before you ca, did you?”

Shi Xiu glanced at Yun Liu and smilingly nodded. “That’s right! Life’s just full of surprises!” she remarked, thinking, ‘I wouldn’t have co ifI didn’t know the guestlist and that Yun Liu would be here! This ti, I want to take revenge on the spot!’

Shi Xiu was chatty and hadn’t stopped talking since she entered the residence. She was all over the place, asking questions about this and that and making everyone laugh from ti to ti.

Dinner was soon ready. Shi Xiu sincerely praised as she looked at the table full of food, “This is great! It’s amazing! You guys are incredible! This is the second ti I’ve seen a non-professional cook up a table full of dishes in one go!” Hai Hua chuckled, “What do you an by ‘non-professional’?”

“When I say ‘non-professionals,’ I an people who don’t work as chefs or professional maids and nannies,” Shi Xiu replied. This explanation was quite accurate, and everyone laughed along.

Since Shi Xiu arrived, Yun Liu had been ‘squeezed’ to the side and had beco a nonentity. At this mont, she seized her opportunity and gently asked, “Then, who’s the first ‘non-professional’ master chef you’ve t, Shi Xiu?”

Shi Xiu looked at Yun Liu, and her smile deepened before she answered, “That would be my second sister-in-law, Yun Nan!”

Yun Liu imdiately fell silent. Those who weren’t in the know—such as Ji Fei and Yan Tang—couldn’t help but curiously ask who her second sister-in-law was, so Shi Xiu told them about her multi -talented and versatile sister-in-law.

“Didn’t you ntion that your parents’ idol is Xiao Zhao? Why do I get the feeling your idol is your second sister-in-law?” Yan Tang teased.

“Ma’am, you have a keen eye!” Shi Xiu laughed and uttered, “I admire my second sister-in-law an awful lot!”

Xiao Zhao served the last dish and sat down with everyone. He said to Yan Tang, “Yun Nan is indeed very charismatic. I’ll introduce her to you when I have ti in the future. You’ll definitely like her. When I first got to know Yun Nan, I thought you two shared so similar characteristics and would definitely beco great friends!” Shi Xiu nodded vigorously at his comnt.

Yun Liu was very elegant and refined during the al. She was well-behaved and polite; she didn’t speak, but she would look over at the person speaking. Shi Xiu, on the other hand, was very cheerful and outgoing. She praised every dish, and her comnts were well done and caused everyone to laugh on occasion.

Shi Xiu sighed. “I’m so busy! I only have one mouth, but I want to eat AND talk! I wish I could do both at the sa ti. I’m so happy! I didn’t expect my first ti filming a show to be so enjoyable! I t all you nice people and got to eat such delicious food. My manager even tried to scare , saying I’d suffer if I ca here! Fortunately, I wasn’t scared by her!”

It was hard not to like Shi Xiu with her honesty and innocence. Mai Fen had been staring at Shi Xiu with a smile. She hadn’t said much, but at this mont, she couldn’t help but sigh at Si Kun. “Shi Xiu reminds of us when we were young. It’s a wonderful age to be!”

Shi Xiu was eating braised pork ribs when she heard that and held up her bowl, stating, “Miss Mai, if I can have your achievents when I reach your age, I’ll even quit eating!”

Mai Fen laughed, “Oh, you’re such a charr.”

Shi Xiu was a barrel of laughs. She’d stolen Yun Liu’s spotlight just as Yun Liu was making an appearance. However, with the clear and innocent look on Shi Xiu’s face, Yun Liu couldn’t do anything about it, and her expression gradually darkened.

While Shi Xiu was determined to expose Yun Liu’s true colors on the show, Fang Xi was having a business drink and doing her best to fight for their interests.

‘ This really is a tough line of work,’ Fang Xi silently grumbled..
