Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Accompanied by New Doubts
So many things were added at once that the crowd of onlookers was baffled. They began to ask, "With all these ingredients, is this even edible?"
Stinger Wasp honey... The honey from a Stinger Wasp tastes really strange. It’s sweet, yet bitter, with a foul undertone. Can you really add that to at?
And black fungus? Can you add that to at, too? This was completely unheard of, sothing no one had ever seen before.
#These ingredients are so weird...#
Any semblance of calm was shattered the mont Jiang Qiuqiu poured a ton of water into the pot.
#???#
#What kind of move is this? So confusing.#
#What’s the strear doing? Why add water to perfectly good at?#
#Ah... I think the aroma is gone.#
#I think it’s starting to look a little gross! Why would she do that?#
This move—pouring water into the pot after everything was seemingly cooked—was truly unheard of and sothing the audience had never seen before. What’s more, the addition of water diluted the rich aroma of the at, giving everyone the impression of a ’failed dish’.
When enough people start discussing sothing, naysayers are bound to appear.
Things had barely gotten started, and comnts like this were already popping up: #Did the strear get cocky because her audience is growing? Is she starting to show off? Can’t she just fry the food properly? Why do all this?#
#She’s so young, of course she’d pick a bad recipe.#
#Maybe she only knows how to make those first two dishes? If you don’t know how, just say so... We’d still watch even if you just fried it like you did yesterday.#
The comnts ca faster and faster, each one stranger than the last.
Watching the stream while lounging in his dorm, Terry started to get annoyed. ’Have these people ever seen Jiang Qiuqiu’s previous streams? Eaten her food? Do they even know how to cook?!’ Bossing her around from afar like that... Ptooey. He was disgusted.
Since he was unhappy, he started posting his own comnts, arguing with the clueless kids up there.
The kid arrogantly challenged him to a real-life fight, and Terry, amused, quickly posted his work address.
#Terry is a wolf: Federation rcenary Hall. My na is all over the place there. If you want to duel , you’re welco anyti. :)#
The person thought he was just bluffing and was about to laugh and type a retort when he decided to actually click on Terry’s profile. He promptly shriveled up and beat a hasty retreat.
Elsewhere, Changbei and Qiudao were watching together, and Changbei was practically dying of anxiety.
"Qiudao, why! Just why!"
"It was all cooked, so why add water! With that much water, it’s going to be disgusting! It’ll be too soft, too mushy, and it’ll have that foul, watery sll... Do you think I should type sothing in the chat? This is killing ."
"...I’d advise against it." Qiudao stretched his tail. "You’re not a ss-hall private."
"For soone who has never even cooked a al to be giving pointers to Miss Jiang, who has created such stunning dishes before—" Qiudao propped his chin on his hand. "Don’t you think that’s as absurd as a greenhorn who just joined the corps wanting to pick a fight with you?"
"I guess you have a point..."
"Besides, don’t make the sa mistake you did last ti." Oh, the sha of simultaneously scolding the young lady’s "pet food" cooking thods while stuffing your face with her food, tears of pure bliss streaming down your cheeks. That would be too humiliating.
Changbei clearly recalled that humbling experience and quickly fell silent.
The comnt section was too lively for Jiang Qiuqiu to ignore. After adding the water and covering the pot, she adjusted the fla, took a small step back, and sat down.
The horizontal cara angle captured her slender, delicate chin, a striking reminder to everyone that she was indeed a young woman.
"Alright, I hope everyone can stop the unnecessary arguing. This is a food stream, not a debate channel."
Jiang Qiuqiu said, "Shouldn’t you wait until the dish is actually finished before you judge the cooking thod?"
She stated clearly that the Red-Braised Gugu at would be ready in twenty minutes. "Disputes about food shouldn’t be settled with words. You should eat first, then talk."
Her confidence in her own skills was practically overflowing from the screen, but it was precisely this confidence that made her exceptionally charming.
