About how Wu Minqi, clearly in the shower, managed to see the announcent the program team posted in the group imdiately is a story for another ti; the announcent itself was clearly a redial asure by the team.
How excited was Wu Minqi? She was so excited that she ca out wrapped in a bath towel even without rinsing off all the foam on her head, as excited as the Jiang Family kids when the old man gave them an extra dish during New Year.
Because Wu Minqi was so excited, not only did her phone get water inside it, but it also fell to the ground, smashing the screen so she couldn’t read the announcent. She had no choice but to run into the living room with her head still full of foam to discuss the announcent with Jiang Feng.
“Due to the program team’s lack of consideration, the first stage of the competition had so loopholes that greatly affected the scores of so restaurants. To redy this, the range of dishes for next week will be narrowed down to five options, and contestants can resubmit their nus,” Jiang Feng read the first part word by word, and Wu Minqi nodded along, incidentally splashing Jiang Feng’s face with foam.
Jiang Feng silently wiped off the foam and continued reading, “There will be a temporary change to this week’s competition format, with no points being recorded tomorrow. Contestants can rest on their own. This week’s test will start at 10 a.m. on Sunday, and all contestants should arrive at the test location on ti.”
“Test location? Didn’t they say the test would take place in our own restaurants? Now it seems like it is centralized in one place. What about those from out of town?” Wu Minqi asked.
Jiang Feng continued to read, “It’s written here that non-local restaurant contestants will arrive in Beiping on Saturday, with accommodations and als provided by the program team. No wonder points aren’t being recorded tomorrow. But it’s quite advantageous for us, they’re traveling while we can rest.”
“It’s just a few hours by high-speed train or plane,” Wu Minqi said. “Where are we going for the test? Can we figure out what type of test it is based on the location?”
“Spring… hey, isn’t this the famous snack street in our area? I rember Mr. Xu and Mr. Han invested in shops here. They’ve been quite popular lately, with several internet-famous stores that people visit every day to check-in and take pictures,” Jiang Feng recognized the testing location.
“Snack street?” Wu Minqi leaned closer, saring more foam on Jiang Feng’s face, “Going to the snack street? Are we supposed to—hold on, what kind of test involves running a food stall?”
Jiang Feng once again wiped the foam off his face and turned away, “Qiqi.”
“Ah?” Wu Minqi turned her head.
“You should rinse off the foam on your head first.”
Washing one’s face with shampoo is not sustainable, especially since she needed to be on cara tomorrow.
It was only then that Wu Minqi realized the peculiar sight she made in the living room, and with that damned cara in the room, she panicked. Her face quickly turned red, and without even bothering to put on slippers, she ran back to the bathroom.
Even back in the bathroom, Wu Minqi’s thoughts were still on the announcent.
“Fengfeng, go upstairs to Master Sun’s and discuss with them; I’ll be there shortly. Make sure they don’t co down again!”
“Sure thing.”
Jiang Feng did as Wu Minqi asked and went up to Sun Maochai’s place, only to find Sun Jikai also there, for so reason applying a plaster at Sun Maochai’s place.
“Did you guys see the announcent from the program team just now?” Jiang Feng’s gaze didn’t leave the plaster on Sun Jikai’s arm from the mont he entered.
“Yes, I was about to remind you guys to look at the announcent in the group, but then you showed up,” said Sun Maochai while wearing reading glasses. “We have a day off tomorrow, what’s your plan?”
“Of course, to rest.” Actually, none of the three had been physically worn out these days; probably only Sun Jikai was the one who had been tired.
Although they were not physically tired, the stress was real, and with the ga-changing test on Sunday, they definitely should rest well on Saturday.
Speaking of this, Jiang Feng felt the topic should shift towards the plaster on Sun Jikai’s arm: “What happened to your hand? Did you twist it while stir-frying beef ho fun today?”
“No, it’s just a little sore and swollen, so I’m using a plaster to relieve it,” Sun Jikai said, “Where’s Wu Minqi?”
“She’s showering. She’ll co up later; we can start the discussion now.”
Then the three of them began to discuss the announcent released by the program team.
First of all, this announcent was very beneficial to Taifeng Building from beginning to end.
With the prompt from the mission, Jiang Feng was clear that next week’s change to the format wouldn’t help Taifeng Building’s current situation much, but the real turning point was the test the day after tomorrow. However, the program team only asked everyone to gather at the snack street and didn’t specify what kind of test it would be.
Even though it wasn’t explicitly stated, one could guess the general direction: it would either be to make or to taste, but definitely related to culinary skills.
Considering Xu Cheng and Han Guishan had stores on the snack street, the three were leaning towards the possibility of making sothing.
But what, specifically? To make snacks? Jiang Feng thought that among the seven remaining contestant restaurants, including one that was a Western restaurant, the chefs likely weren’t skilled in making snacks.
After all, everyone has their specialties, and if you haven’t made it before, being suddenly asked to do so would surely not be manageable.
“`
When Wu Minqi joined the discussion after her shower, the four of them agreed through simple deliberation that the task would most likely involve cooking a set the, and it would definitely be a simple al, given it was in the snack street. What they didn’t know was how the points were calculated, but Jiang Feng was still very confident about the test scores, which should be very high. If not, Taifeng Building wouldn’t possibly be experiencing a rebirth in a desperate situation.
Eventually, after a heated discussion, everyone concluded that they must get there early on Sunday.
Arriving early ant they could be prepared for any ergencies, and if sothing did happen when they were cutting it close to the ti, it wouldn’t be easy to handle. Taifeng Building absolutely couldn’t afford any accidents now.
By the ti they had finished discussing these matters, it was nearly midnight, but they could rest tomorrow and everyone could enjoy a good sleep-in. Staying up late tonight wouldn’t be a big deal. However, as a middle-aged person, Sun Maochai wasn’t as adept at staying up late as the three young people, and upon the stroke of midnight, he shooed the trio away, indicating that he needed to sleep.
“Go back and rest early, and even though you can sleep in tomorrow, don’t sleep too late. It makes a person sluggish, and a disrupted biological clock isn’t good for the day after tomorrow’s competition,” Sun Maochai cautioned, “Actually, if possible, we could et tomorrow afternoon for a walk in the park or a trip to the countryside to see the scenery. A change of environnt and so fresh air might be beneficial for the test the day after tomorrow.”
After leaving Sun Maochai’s ho, Sun Jikai was already feeling a bit sleepy and started yawning. Without lingering to chat more with Jiang Feng and Wu Minqi, he went straight ho to sleep.
The elevator stopped at the floor where Jiang Feng lived, and the two walked out of the elevator. Jiang Feng felt for his keys to unlock the door.
The lock at ho had been problematic for the past couple of days, making it especially hard to unlock. The locksmith was supposed to co and look at it, but because Jiang Feng and Wu Minqi had been too busy with the competition, they hadn’t had the chance to arrange a ti.
Since seeing the announcent, Wu Minqi had been in a particularly good mood, and even though Jiang Feng struggled with the lock several tis without success, it didn’t dampen her spirits.
“Fengfeng, try pulling the key out a little,” Wu Minqi suggested. “I’ve found that if you pull it out slightly, it opens easier.”
Jiang Feng did as Wu Minqi had said and pulled the key out a bit, then turned it, and the door opened.
Wu Minqi was even happier after the door opened.
Jiang Feng couldn’t help but laugh, “Qiqi, you seem especially excited tonight.”
“Really?” Wu Minqi’s eyes widened with joy, “Perhaps a little, I just feel… feel…”
“I feel like I have that feeling of ‘When all seems lost, a new path is found,’ but no, not exactly that—it’s Experiencing A Rebirth In A Desperate Situation.”
“That’s it, Experiencing A Rebirth In A Desperate Situation!” Wu Minqi said with certainty. “At first, I thought we had no chance of advancing. Our scores were so low the first week, and the other restaurants must have much higher scores than us, maybe even one or two thousand points higher.”
“Although I don’t know what the test will be the day after tomorrow, I just feel like we can turn things around. It’s like sothing from a TV drama—exactly like Experiencing A Rebirth In A Desperate Situation!”
Jiang Feng nodded; it was indeed Experiencing A Rebirth In A Desperate Situation, the very na of his main mission.
Wait a second, Experiencing A Rebirth In A Desperate Situation.
Why do those words seem so familiar?
In that mont, Jiang Feng finally rembered the newest dish he had acquired, the whole roasted lamb buff, which was certainly the luck from Experiencing A Rebirth In A Desperate Situation.
Indeed, there is always a way out; protagonists like them could even make new paths fall from the sky when at a dead end.
Not eating a bite of roasted lamb in such a mont would be an injustice to the survival struggles that Xia Mushi and Chen Shi faced in the wilderness.
“Qiqi,” Jiang Feng called out to Wu Minqi, who was about to drink so water, “I think what Master Sun said makes sense. Tomorrow afternoon, we should go out and relax.”
Wu Minqi took a few sips of water first, “Sure, where do you want to go?”
“Do you feel like eating roasted lamb, Qiqi?”
Wu Minqi: ?
Wasn’t he just talking about going out for a walk in the afternoon?
Although Jiang Feng’s change in topic was abrupt, Wu Minqi still managed to follow along, nodding, “If you want to eat it, sure, but isn’t it wasteful for just the four of us to eat a whole lamb? Should we invite a few more people?”
“No need, the four of us will be fine. Let’s do that then. Tomorrow I’ll ask Zhang for the key, and in the afternoon, we’ll head to Fen Garden to roast lamb. I checked out Fen Garden last ti I was there, and there’s a spot where we can set up a bonfire.”
Wu Minqi: ??
Is that what Fengfeng ant just now?
She had a feeling… sothing wasn’t quite right.
