Chapter 158: Chapter 158: I’ll Definitely Taste It and See; There’s Nothing to Lose
Many other people were asking the sa question in the live comnts.
[Why did over thirty million people suddenly pop up? And how are they the exact sa people who left earlier?]
[And @Mu Shengsheng, didn’t you just say you couldn’t stand the sll?! Why are you back trying to grab a spot, and you even got one!]
This question voiced the thoughts of countless people.
They had been burned trying to get dumplings last ti, so why did they dare try again? It was all because there were fewer people this ti, making it seem like they had a chance.
Who knew the people who’d already bailed could just co right back!
But the people who returned had a brilliant retort, quoting sothing Changbei had said long ago.
[I’ve never tried it before. Juju’s food is so good, I have to at least taste it once before I decide whether to eat it in the future or not.]
[How could I not try to get so?]
A chorus of "Yeah!" and "Exactly!" followed below.
Seeing the mood in the comnts taking a turn, Jiang Qiuqiu imdiately stepped in to guide the stream to the next event. "Alright, the virtual tasting slots have all been distributed. Now, it’s ti to draw for the real-life giveaway spots."
She tapped her terminal a few tis and opened the lottery page.
The lottery system had a retro style, like sothing from thousands of years ago. You just had to press a button, and the winners’ avatars would quickly appear on the screen.
"The fans who are chosen will receive a link from the Juju’s Livestream admin account within five minutes. All you have to do is follow the link, fill in your shipping information, and in one to three days, a still-warm serving of Pickled Fish will be delivered to you."
"So now, I’ll begin."
This was the first ti.
A light flashed, and countless hearts pounded in ti with the system’s rhythm.
3-2-1.
Three seconds can feel so short, and yet so long.
The mont the avatars locked into place—
The lucky winners scread "AAAAAHHHH!" in their hos! Those who weren’t chosen let out a disappointed sigh but accepted reality. After all, with so many people vying for a spot, it was normal not to be picked.
Even Changbei and Qiudao weren’t chosen.
Their luck had been so good for so long, always getting a virtual tasting slot, but this ti—
Qiudao had already licked his bowl clean, broth and all. He’d also polished off every last grain of Rice on his plate.
Changbei watched him in surprise. This was the first ti he’d ever seen Qiudao love a dish so much that his pretty, pointed ears had popped out after the very first bite.
"Don’t be so down. It’s fine if we didn’t win. At least we got to taste it!"
"I know." Qiudao let out a long breath. "The disappointnt has already passed."
"Then why are you still making that face?" Changbei muttered.
"Because..." Before he could finish, Qiudao’s eyes lit up. "I never imagined fish could be this delicious. I can’t believe a food as amazing as fish exists in this world!"
"I wish Juju would cook fish every day."
’Does he like it that much?’
Changbei quietly pushed his own bowl in front of Qiudao and connected Qiudao’s ID to his terminal to activate it. "If you haven’t had enough, have so of mine. I’m not finished yet."
"No, it’s okay." Qiudao shook his head. "You eat it."
"When sothing is this good, one bowl is enough."
Sotis, even love requires restraint.
His love for fish was practically overflowing, Changbei thought to himself as he ate.

anwhile, i Lin wasn’t taking reality so well.
In her spacious room, she was putting on a live demonstration: how an elegant young noble lady curses up a storm.
"Why didn’t I get one!"
"Why is this company so bad at making money!"
