Translator: 549690339
“Let’s give our warmest applause and congratulate contestant Qin Lang for achieving first place in this whimsical and authorised event — the Shi Qi Cup Rookie Tacit Challenge, sponsored by the Shi Qi Group!”
The host’s passionate voice echoed inside and outside the Shi Qi Commercial Building, which served as the competition venue at the very top.
Among the loud applause of the large audience, Qin Lang slowly ascended to the highest point of the award podium.
At his side, the contestants who came second and third cast envious glances at him.
Not far away, Zhao Chen, whose Food Spirit had lost its combat capability in a skirmish with Qin Lang and was disqualified just a step away from the finish line, crossed his arms. His face showed no envy, but instead was filled with fighting spirit.
Who would have expected Qin Lang to secretly undertake special training with his Food Spirit while preparing for the Cooking Contest. contemporary romance
He and his Food Spirit had tried so hard, yet they were still one step away from defeating Qin Lang.
He was a worthy adversary indeed!
Next time.
Next time I will definitely surpass him!
Zhao Chen vowed silently.
“All…the obstacle race was too hard.” Standing next to Zhao Chen, Qi Xiaoyu couldn’t help but sigh, “I maintained the lead while blindfolded, but in the obstacle race, I hardly passed through any obstacles in one go.”
Even the Food Spirit with a little devil’s tail by her side was feeling dejected at the moment, drooping its head in disappointment.
Looking at Qin Lang, who had collected a commemorative medal and an exquisite gift box from the host, Qi Xiaoyu’s face was tinged with envy, “Qin Lang has made a fortune this time.”
“I’ve got it!” She seemed to have an idea, her eyes lighting up. She reached out and tapped the side of Zhao Chen, “What do you think, wouldn’t it be reasonable for Qin Lang to buy us a meal as a reward for his success?”
“This…” Zhao Chen shook his head without hesitation, “Not at all unreasonable!”
He had lost to Qin Lang, so there was nomore reasonable cause to dine at Qin Lang’s expense!
“Hehe, leave it to me!”
Qi Xiaoyu, with her hands behind her back, hopped over to Qin Lang, who was walking towards them after a group photo, “Qin Lang, congratulations on getting the Mind Stone!”
“Thank you.” Qin Lang couldn’t hold back his smile.
Next to him, Dan Bao had already excitedly opened the gift box for the first-place prize, and took out a strange-looking gemstone to wear around its neck.
It was a diamond-shaped gemstone, with exquisite cutting marks on the surface, which reflected a dazzling burst of light under the light. It seemed to glow as it moved.
This clear and colorless gemstone, like a diamond, contained a pink, heart-shaped energy formation within that could be seen upon close inspection.
This was a supportive gemstone naturally born and extremely rare – the Mind Stone.
When worn during the Star-raising process, the Mind Stone would automatically activate. The power it contained would influence the new combat skill that the Food Spirit was about to awaken, ensuring that this new skill would be a Mind Type combat skill.
Looking at this beautiful gemstone and feeling the power it contained, Dan Bao had already decided that it wouldn’t take it off for a single second before the Star-raising process.
“Hehe, after getting such a great prize, Qin Lang, don’t you think you should celebrate?” Seeing Qin Lang in a good mood, Qi Xiaoyu didn’t hesitate to reveal her intentions, “Treat us, treat us! I want a lavish meal!”
“This…”
Qin Lang looked at Qi Xiaoyu, then at Zhao Chen who was nodding in agreement at his side.
With a light smile, he nodded clearly, “Alright!”
“Without going for a lavish meal, let me cook instead!”
Though he hasn’t been in this world for a long time, Qin Lang saw the two as his friends indeed.
The joyous event of obtaining the Mind Stone was worth celebrating with friends.
“Yay!”
Qi Xiaoyu and Zhao Chen’s faces lit up with anticipation.
They wouldn’t consider Qin Lang cooking for them as a slight, not by any stretch.
After all, this guy was ranked second in the scoring competition.
“By the way, invite Du Weiwei as well.” Qin Lang proactively suggested.
Without one of the three, the group wouldn’t feel complete.
“Alright, 1’11 give her a call.” Qi Xiaoyu nodded, picking up her phone and walking to the side.
“Ring, ring-” freew ebnov el
A ringing tone sounded in the quiet kitchen.
Immersed in the culinary training, Du Weiwei frowned and looked up, her face showing a trace of restlessness.
Like Zhao Chen, her household also had a heritage dish.
She hadn’t used this dish when the first Food Spirit was born, but it could be used for the second Food Spirit.
However, the dish was challenging to make. Despite her lengthy training, she still couldn’t get the second Food Spirit to appear successfully.
She glanced at the caller ID on the phone, and the restlessness in Du Weiwei’s heart gradually subsided.
Why is Xiaoyu calling herself at this time?
As she answered the phone, her face gradually changed with the voice coming from the other end.
“Okay, I’ll be there shortly.”
Du Weiwei quickly answered and then hung up the phone.
She put the phone in her pocket and quickly cleaned up her somewhat messy kitchen. She then looked at the Food Spirit that was flying around and smiled warmly, “You’ve worked hard these couple of days.”
“Ummm-”
The Food Spirit shook its head to indicate it wasn’t tired, then affectionately rubbed its face against Du Weiwei’s.
Du Weiwei extended her hand to stroke her Food Spirit, and walked with it toward the kitchen exit.
“Let’s go, we’re going to eat something delicious. Qin Lang is going to cook to celebrate receiving the Mind Stone!”
Du Weiwei’s Food Spirit’s eyes lit up.
That Spirit Chef with fabulous cooking skills?
Exciting!
“Chop, chop, chop-”
The sound of the knife hitting the chopping board echoed continuously in a kitchen, resonating in the spacious and clean space.
Inside the kitchen, a Spirit Chef in his twenties and his Food Spirit were busy.
“No!”
“Something’s still missing!”
This Spirit Chef was quite fussy about his dishes. No amount of test cooking has satisfied him yet.
“Time for a break.”
Seeing his somewhat fatigued Food Spirit beside him, he knew he had been pushing too hard. After finishing yet another test run, he slowly spoke up.
He put the Food Spirit back into the Star Vein and then the Spirit Chef stretched out a lazy yawn, pulling out his phone to casually browse through. After a while, his scrolling finger paused.
“An interesting competition held by Shi Qi Group?” He saw the familiar figure on the award podium in the accompanying picture of the news and clicked into it without hesitation.
After carefully reading the news, he let out a low chuckle.
“At a time like this, you still have the will to participate in other competitions?”
“Qin Lang, Qin Lang…” He slowly put down his phone, “I will let you know the consequences of being distracted during the preparation stage of our competition.”
Summoning his Food Spirit, which had already regained its energy, Zhang Chen returned to the table.
After the Scoring Competition had ended, he watched the replay of the live broadcast immediately.
After finding out about the high-scoring dish that Qin Lang had produced in the Scoring Competition, Zhang Chen felt slightly less worried about Qin Lang.
This guy just created a vegetarian dish, cleverly made to resemble meat.
This time, he won’t have the chance to take such a shortcut!
