man to marry

The matter of changing venues for the top [-] promotion competitions was not a temporary idea, but the previous regulations have always been like this, it's just ahead of schedule.

It is a good thing for the media to pay attention to the players and report, but it is not so good if it is too fanatical and affects the orderly life.

In a culinary competition, the first thing to look at is culinary skills, and the competition is also culinary skills, not a beauty pageant.

This is what Xu Xiangqian conveyed, and he also hopes that Shu Xia can calm down and not be influenced by those impetuous breaths in her choice.

Shu Xia didn't intend to go to the showbiz. At first and in the end, he was just making plans for his Lin Lang. It was also a relief for him to be able to keep the venue a secret.

However, even so, titles like 'New Chef', 'The Most Beautiful Chef in History', and 'Chef World Double Beauty' are still circulating on the Internet, which makes Assistant Zhang even more busy.

Because just keeping the photos secret is enough for the staff to work overtime. Coupled with the specious speculation and the silence of the media, this kind of scene reminded Assistant Zhang of the year when Wen Ying became popular, and it was the same. Busy.

In the dimly lit corridor, the floor is similar to bluestone. Occasionally, there are cracks on the side, and water stains do not know where it comes from. Those who are stepped on by people can always splash some water.

If it weren't for the smell of disinfectant wafting here and the occasional medical staff passing by, this place would hardly look like a hospital, a plastic surgery hospital.

It is a challenge and a pain for a person who is extraordinarily confident in his own appearance to put his own face under the knife of others.

But he had no choice, because if he didn't change his face, he wouldn't be able to live under the sun again.

"Doctor, patients in Ward 203 can take off their bandages today," the nurse said in the corridor with a messy set of scissors.

The doors here are very thin, and the corridors are very small. Standing on the other side and talking, you can hear clearly on the other side. Song Ruiduan stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, with white gauze covering his whole head. Every time he saw himself like this When I look like this, I feel very scared.

What kind of face will he have behind the gauze, ugly, handsome, no matter what, it will be very strange.

But after waiting for so long, he was finally about to remove the gauze, and he was relieved. This place is not too far from City B. If he stays here for a while, his situation will become more dangerous.

"Understood, I'll take it apart after dinner," the doctor's voice came from a distance with a bit of laziness, and then the footsteps went away.

The environment is poor, the sanitation is poor, and even the food is quite poor, but he searched all the surrounding towns, only this hospital does not require identification.

"It's time to eat," a nurse outside put the lunch box on his table, then turned and left.

Song Ruiduan glanced at the mirror again, opened the door to eat his lunch box, the cost of plastic surgery is very expensive, and being able to eat a box lunch is definitely much better than the previous wandering days.

The sheets of the hospital bed were slightly yellowed, and Song Ruiduan didn't dislike it, so he just sat down on it, set up the baffle and sat still, took the remote control wrapped with tape for several times, and turned on the silver-gray computer opposite the hospital bed. desktop TV.

The model is very old, and the signal is not very good. I can only receive a few stations. Most of the advertisements of 998 can be broadcast for half an hour, but it is better than nothing.

It's too quiet here, and once it's quiet, it's easy to make people flustered.

He was lucky today. He tuned a few channels, and a burst of snowflakes flashed on the screen. There was a picture of a channel that he could not normally receive. Advertising is much better.

Song Rui was watching the TV and eating his boxed lunch slowly. He couldn't open his mouth too wide, otherwise he always felt that the wound on his cheek would open.

The taste of the lunch box is not very good. There are three dishes and one rice. There is not even a diced meat in the rice.

Song Ruiduan ate very slowly, he only ate half of the dance at the end of the TV show.After the dance ended, another show continued after a short commercial.

When he saw that it was a cooking competition, he stopped his hands that were about to switch, looked at the dishes made by others, and perhaps could imagine that what he ate was made by them.

At the start of the competition, the host passionately introduced the rules of the competition, and then showed the venue where hundreds of chefs were waiting, a countdown, and the scene of hundreds of people cooking at the same time was indeed breathtaking.

It's just that there are very few such pictures, because the audience generally only cares about how you make it, and don't want to care about the process, Song Ruiduan laughed inwardly.

The picture swept across a bunch of chefs. Song Ruiduan looked a little bored at first, but when he saw a rather familiar person, his eyes widened suddenly. That was——Fu Li?

No, that's Shu Xia, he's actually participating in that culinary competition, he's a chef, no, it should be said that he's in city b.

The person who couldn't be found at all, suddenly had clues, Song Ruiduan almost wanted to rush out to investigate immediately, whether Shu Xia was behind that thing, and what was his purpose?

If it was him, then this revenge must be avenged.

No one can escape.

It's just that for the beauty's revenge, he can choose a different path. Watching him scream, fear, and unable to maintain that high-ranking appearance anymore, it makes people feel excited to think about it.

"Hey, haha..." Song Ruiduan laughed in a low voice, and there was an inexplicable sense of weirdness in his hoarse voice.

His originally gentle voice disappeared, replaced by stagnant, rough, with a frosty feeling, and this change was due to the permanent damage to his throat caused by not drinking water for a long time.

"Hey, why did you spill the food on the bed? Who will clean up the oil on your bed?" An angry and sharp female voice came from the door.

Song Ruiduan stopped laughing, only then did he realize that the lunch box that was placed on the sideboard of the table just now was pushed to the other side inadvertently by him, and it was directly buckled upside down on the bed.

Vegetable soup, rice, soaked in brown color, I am afraid that even the mattress will be stained with a strange smell, the nurse put the tray next to it, there was a crash, the medical equipment inside made a collision sound, the nurse pulled his Pulling him down with his arm, he said, "What should I do? This will definitely not work. Let me tell you, if it is broken, you will have to pay for it. You have to change all the quilts. The total is five hundred."

"How much did you say?!" Song Ruiduan looked at her with a gloomy face and said.

His eyes peeked out from the gauze wrapped in gauze. He was vicious and cruel. When the nurse met him, he was taken aback. The next moment, he rolled his sleeves and yelled louder, "Why are you staring at me?" Why, you have bigger eyes than anyone else, I tell you, it’s useless to stare, you have to pay for this quilt! Wait here, and the doctor will remove the gauze for you later.”

The nurse was holding the tray, cursing but hurried away. Song Ruiduan looked at the dish stains on the bed sheet and felt that it was extremely glaring. Huluo Pingyang was bullied by dogs, and anyone dared to step on his head. Get on your feet.

It's just that his eyes should not be here, nor should he do anything eye-catching here. What he should pay attention to now is the smiling young man on the TV.

That smile used to be really bright, but now it's really glaring, it makes people want to tear it up immediately, and it's only fun to destroy it.

The process of removing the gauze was a bit painful. After the last piece of gauze was removed, Song Ruiduan took the mirror aside.

However, what he saw was a slightly red, swollen and bruised face, with irregular bulges on both sides of the cheeks, and an excessively pointed chin. He wanted to smile, but found that his facial nerves were frighteningly stiff. The person in the mirror, Compared to his original, he looked like a monster.

"It's always been like this after the surgery," the doctor put his hands in his pockets and comforted him, "After a while, you'll recover and you'll be fine. You'll definitely be more handsome than you are now. Think about it, you'll spend a lot of time." For 1 yuan, it is not bad to make this level.”

If it weren't for the fact that his complexion was so ugly, the doctor would have even skipped the step of explaining.

After the doctor and nurse left, Song Ruiduan looked at himself in the mirror. Except for his eyes, he was really a different person from before, completely different.

The sound of a broken mirror resounded in the ward. The cleaning staff, who were about to open the door to enter, paused for a moment, cursed insanely, and left with a bucket.

The bed was not made, so there was no way to live there. Song Ruiduan thought about his future plans, endured and endured, and then changed into clothes, paid the bill and left the hospital.

……

The 200 to 50 promotion match ended, and Shu Xia ushered in the last promotion match after a night of rest.

This promotion match is 50 to 8. Similarly, the top eight will be intercepted to participate in the last three games.

Quarterfinals, semifinals, then finals.

Fortunately, the venue was changed. Apart from the occasional other chefs looking at him, Shu Xia was able to pass the game smoothly from entering to exiting.

"The quarter-finals adopt a pairwise elimination system, but in order to show fairness, there will be a rematch after the game. That is to say, the eliminated chef can challenge one of the promoted chefs. If he wins, he can Resurrection," Xue Shao introduced the rules to Shu Xia, Shu Xia listened carefully, and even Du Ran, who was beside him, held his chin and listened carefully.

This is related to whether you can get the final trophy, and nothing can be neglected.

"Do you understand?" Xue Shao took the information and looked at the two people who were staring at him closely. He felt that he was just being a mother for one person before, but now he brought another one for free.

Shu Xia nodded, "Understood, and what about the semi-finals?"

"The mechanism of the semi-finals is the same. To ensure fairness, there is also a chance of resurrection. There is no final, boss. What else do you not understand?" Xue Shao handed the information to Shu Xia and said, "If you don't understand, you can see for yourself."

"...No more," Shu Xia inexplicably felt that Xue Shao looked at her eyes, as if she was looking at a baby with limited mobility, the kind that the mother should worry about everything.

If the rules are clear, then there is nothing to hesitate about.

The arena is like a battlefield, if you show mercy to your opponent, you are forcing yourself to your death.

The lights in the kitchen are bright, and there are eight people participating in the quarter-finals. The reduction in the number of people will also extend the shots of everyone.

There are eight chefs and four kitchens. Each chef chooses his opponent by drawing. Those who draw the same number will be eliminated.

As the No.1 last time, Shu Xia and Du Ran were drawn first, followed by the others.

The card was drawn, and after a glance, he announced it to the camera, and then returned to his seat.

In order to increase the fun of the program, the opponents are not matched by chefs, but announced by the organizer after the drawing is completed.

With this kind of gameplay, Shu Xia felt that the organizers didn't want to increase the fun, but wanted to see their reaction when they saw their opponents. To put it simply, it was just to tease you and leave you speechless.

Each group announces the name one by one, what is needed is that kind of tense atmosphere. Shu Xia was able to be nervous in the previous games, but now he can only be calm. If he loses on the way to the finals, it can only show that he is not strong enough. The reasons can be said.

Of course, the face that should be given to the organizers is still to be given, and the audience cannot be made to feel that their young people are too ignorant of the heights of the sky and the earth.

Because of this, when he noticed that the hand of the chef sitting beside him was shaking unconsciously on the chair, he showed a slightly nervous expression symbolically.

Then he saw his opponent, and when he turned his head suddenly, he met Du Ran who was next to him, and surprise flashed in his eyes at the same time.

Eight people, four groups, the probability of being drawn together is not low, but the probability of not being drawn together is absolutely high. In the end, who would have thought that in the first round of the non-promotion match, the two of them would bump into each other.

"Although it's a pity, I can only ask Shu Xia to resurrect you," Du Ran smiled softly, but it's a pity that the words definitely didn't fit the tone.

Shu Xia also smiled at him and said, "It's too tiring to resurrect again, so I'll trouble you."

In front of the game, the once pure friendship is like made of plastic.

The two of them smiled at each other, which didn't match the seriousness of the others, but because the voice was too low, the host couldn't hear what they were saying, but saw the two of them together and sent a sigh "It seems that our Master Du Ran and Master Shu Xia have a really good relationship. Even as opponents, they encourage each other. This is simply a model of friendship first and competition second."

Shu Xia "..."

God damn friendship first, competition second.

Du Ran smiled softly, "She may not have very good ears."

The competition starts, the quarter-finals are different from the previous promotion competition not only in the mechanism, but also in different forms. Make both ordered and homemade dishes.

However, in the quarter-finals, there are three tasks. The first one must use the ingredients specified by the organizer, the second one is about aesthetics, and the third one is free play.

The chefs took their positions, and the host brought the designated ingredients in a box. Similarly, in order to increase the fun of the competition, the host still said a lot of exciting words before revealing them.

Shu Xia looked at the shiitake mushrooms in the box, and was silent for a moment. There are many ways to cook with shiitake mushrooms. Mushroom ingredients can be used to enhance freshness, and can also be used as ingredients, but if they are not handled well, the ingredients cannot be kept in the final state. That moment of perfection is impossible to win.

Shu Xia looked at the ingredients, thought for a while, and turned to get the basket, but she didn't expect her hand to touch another person's hand.

Shu Xia looked sideways, looked at Du Ran who was also looking at him, and understood that he had also made a decision.

But it's normal for the first dish to be thought out so quickly.

This dish made by Shu Xia only needs three ingredients, mushrooms, lotus root, and eggs.

Remove the joints and peel the lotus root, cut it into two semicircular shapes and marinate it with salt to make it softer, process the mushrooms, stir-fry with flower oil, add cooking wine, etc., until the color is bright and bright, put it in the lotus root folder, wrap it up and adjust it of batter.

Put it into the oil pan once to remove the tail of the noodles, and then paint it again until the surface is golden. When you put it on the plate, you can only feel the fragrance and make your index finger twitch.

This kitchen is very user-friendly, at least when cooking, only the camera is on the side, and no one else disturbs. Once the dishes are ready, you only need to press the bell, and someone will come in from outside.

Shu Xia raised her hand, looked at the other hand that was also reaching up, sighed, and looked at the dishes beside her, stuffed shiitake mushrooms with shrimps, Du Ran was not slow in cooking.

It's just that now is not the time to argue, the bell rang, and soon someone came in and brought out the dishes.

They don't need to participate in the tasting process, what they need to do is to start preparing the second course immediately.

It's one thing to play clips later in the show, it's another to be busy with them now.

The second way is to pay attention to the aesthetics of food. In a simple sense, it is to test knife skills and plate presentation.

Whoever can make it more exquisite, and who can make it eye-catching, pleasing to the eye without losing its taste, will win.

Shu Xia is very confident in her knife skills, but after seeing Du Ran's pursuit of aesthetics, she rarely hesitates.

It’s not that I’m hesitant to do something, but that there are too many turns in my mind, there are all kinds of things, and it’s a bit difficult to pick the best one to do.

While he was hesitating, Du Ran beside him had already chosen the ingredients and began to wash and peel them.

This situation is undoubtedly worrying, but Shu Xia unexpectedly calmed down. Du Ran is excellent in this area, but for things like knife skills, it doesn't matter how fast you are, but how well you do it.

If you want to make a shape, carrots are indispensable. Shu Xia thought about the final shape of the work, put the selected dishes into the basket one by one, and returned to her place.

Make big cuts, carve finely with a knife, and the crumbs slide off with the light movement of your fingers. When you are concentrating on cooking, all the other things are not enough to enter your mind.

Only the sound of the knife falling was especially pleasant.

Then when the final product is formed, the carp crosses the dragon gate, which is the most auspicious, not only the spring water is ding-dong, the dragon gate is towering, but also the dragon swims all over the world, completely reborn, Shu Xia raised her head when she pressed the bell with a sigh of relief, only to find Du Ran's work It seems to have been presented.

The staff who came in to serve the dishes were obviously surprised when they saw his work, and then hurried out with them.

Shu Xia didn't have time to catch her breath and pay attention to her grades, so she could only hastily decide on her third work.

Free play seems easy, but it is also the most test of cooking skills. It is not good if it is too cumbersome, it is not good if it is too simple, and it is not good to meet such an opponent.

When Shu Xia was standing in front of the ingredients and thinking, she found that Du Ran had taken foie gras. The foie gras was delicious, even if it was used to make sauces, it would not damage its taste, but this kind of ingredients are often processed more in Western food Some.

But there is no rule in the national competition that you cannot cook western food.

Shu Xia also knows how to cook Western food. The cooking skills are always the same. There is no reason to say that if you can cook Chinese food, you can’t cook Western food. However, the two cooking skills have different handling of ingredients, and Shu Xia still prefers in the practice of Chinese food.

Shu Xia took a look, and finally took out a piece of beef from the ingredients. Beef is also a mainstay in Western food, but it doesn't mean that Chinese food is not delicious. The ingredients given by the organizer are also the freshest and of the highest quality. of.

Shu Xia chose the most tender part, and chose potatoes as an auxiliary. She didn't plan to do anything else, so she made the simplest home-cooked dish, stewed beef with braised potatoes.

Of course, the appearance must be good-looking, and the treatment of potatoes is particularly important.

Aside from the knife, Shu Xia used a digging spoon, and small potato balls fell into the plate one after another. It took some effort, but it definitely looked good.

The beef is cut into pieces, marinated, put on the hot oil in the pan, and all kinds of base materials are added, and the extra fragrance burst out instantly.

The most important thing about this dish is the handling of the beef. It is too tender and bloody when it is old. It is braised in soy sauce, and the beef needs to be bitten down. It is very tender and tender, and it is stronger than tofu. It is the most delicious The best, but also the most test of the chef's skills.

Shu Xia held her breath until the finished product was finished. She sandwiched the beef cubes into the plate, surrounded by a circle of cute potatoes. The potatoes were soft and easy to break if she didn't notice them. But here for Shu Xia, the tops of them seemed Wrapped in a layer of soup, they look trembling, but there is no feeling that they can't be clamped.

Even if it is Chinese food, it can be presented beautifully. When the dishes were brought out, Shu Xia breathed a sigh of relief. She felt her cheeks itch slightly. She rubbed her hands with the back of her hand, only to find that it had slipped off. sweat.

After making these three dishes, it was much more tiring than he had participated in the promotion competition for so many days before.

"Here, here," Du Ran's voice sounded from beside him, and Shu Xia looked over, only to find him waving and smiling softly at the corner of the kitchen, "There is no camera here."

Shu Xia understood, took a sip of water, took off her apron and walked over.

Being under the camera at such a tired time really puts a lot of pressure on people.

"The other three groups don't seem to be ready yet, and we have to wait until the end to announce all the answers," Du Ran said through the crack of the door, looking at the judges outside. It's hard to imagine that someone like him would have such a cute move.

"It will take a while." Shu Xia looked at the position of the camera, took two small stools, placed one and sat down, beckoning Du Ran to do the same.

The stool was short and looked like squatting. Du Ran was stunned for a moment, then sat down like him, and said with a smile, "Aren't you afraid of being seen?"

"Just see it, you're exhausted." When Shu Xia was tired, he didn't bother to care about his image. He was a cook, and a cook only needed to cook well, and he didn't need other images.

"Well, who do you think we will win?" Du Ran asked with a smile.

Shu Xia replied without hesitation, "I!"

With such an answer, Du Ran obviously stopped, "You are so narcissistic."

"It's self-confidence," Shu Xia smiled cheerfully.

Although it is said so, it is really difficult to know what the final result will be.

It seemed that there were some problems during the evaluation, and the judges had some disputes, but the organizers obviously liked to see these controversial pictures, and they shot them all without missing a trace.

Although Shu Xia and Du Ran could see a little bit of the picture, it was basically impossible to hear what everyone was saying.

After some debate, although the time was stretched a bit, the final result still came out.

The host came to the kitchen to announce the results. When Shu Xia saw the figure approaching, she directly pulled out the bench beside her and put it aside. She dragged Du Ran back to the kitchen, as if they had been waiting patiently.

As expected, the host didn't notice anything, even, her attention seemed to be on something else, holding the card in her hand, playing tricks in the daily process, and then revealed the mystery, "This group, Du Ran scored 97 points, Shu Xia scored 969 points, Du Ran advanced, congratulations."

With the final word, Shu Xia didn't feel as disappointed as last time. The gap of 001 points was not regret, but looking forward to the rematch.

"The resurrection match will start immediately. Would you like to perform the resurrection?" The host looked at Shu Xia and asked with a smile.

Shu Xia nodded, and after all the results were announced, he chose the one who advanced from other groups, but to his surprise, he was the only one who chose to be resurrected, and the others didn't seem to have that intention.

"The resurrection competition only needs to cook one dish, but it has to be calculated by adding up the scores of the dishes made before." Du Ran explained to him with a chuckle, and clenched his fists to cheer him up, "Come on."

"Of course," Shu Xia smiled, he didn't intend to lose here.

Winning or losing is determined by one dish, one person has a cumulative score of 97 points, and one person has a cumulative score of 93 points. Even if the difference is 001 points, it is considered a loss, let alone 04 points, which is like a gap.

"Congratulations to Shu Xia for her successful resurrection and promotion."

The quarter-finals took a long time, and the team match originally in the afternoon was moved to the next day, and the next semi-finals would be three days later.

"The clips in the middle are shown enough, the competition is too tight, and the mentality of the players is easy to collapse," Xue Shao told Shu Xia about the purpose of this regulation.

This kind of one-on-one final system puts the pressure on the players ten times higher than in the previous promotion competition. One wrong step will waste all previous efforts.

"I understand." After three games in a row, he is not physically tired, but his heart is very tired. It is good to have a rest and relax his nerves. Besides this, he also pays attention to another thing. "Song Ruiduan has not yet Did you find it?"

Xue Shao shook his head, "Not yet, the police are already looking for them, and the General Manager of Commerce has also asked people to look for them in surrounding towns, but in those relatively remote places, many black hospitals are generally not so easy to find, so there is nothing yet. progress."

"I can't find it for so long, I guess he's not there anymore," Shu Xia said with a headache. If such a person is allowed to cause trouble everywhere, the situation will be bad.

Before they were in the dark and that person was in the light, now that person is in the dark and they are in the light.

Stabbing in the dark is definitely fatal. Shu Xia will not be able to relax for a day until that person is arrested.

I have to find a way, as long as a person is still alive in this world, he can always leave some clues.

"I said before that if he wants to get rid of the stalking, he will definitely change his identity," Shu Xia frowned, and it is rare that there is no smile on his face, only serious "But even if plastic surgery is done, the previous photos will generally be In the archives kept in the hospital, if you can find that hospital, look for him according to his current face, and give this clue to the police, and your side will also step up efforts."

"Understood," Xue Shao adjusted his glasses, got up and left.

Shu Xia got up and came to the window, looking at the scenery outside, as if something was weighing heavily on her heart.

Song Ruiduan is very cunning, but at the same time he is also very smart. He must have noticed something about the previous incident. Recently, his face was directly exposed when it was broadcast on TV.

Often when the host introduces him, he will also introduce which restaurant he comes from, and Linlang's reputation will further expand. No matter how much information is hidden by Shanglu's public relations team, others will know that he is from City A.

He is protected by bodyguards when he travels, and Shanglu is abroad. They can't use their brains, so they can only use their brains in City A. If a person with no way out uses his brains badly, he really It is impossible to guard against.

Lin Xian had been on guard for a long time. When he heard that Song Ruiduan had escaped, he was on guard.

The most important thing is Shang Chen and the others, the little ones are fine, they are not yet at school age, and they play in the main house all day long, but Shang Chen is at the age of kindergarten, and they are picked up by car every day, even though they are surrounded by protection people, but abducting a child is too easy.

Shu Xia thought about it and felt uneasy, so she called back, but received the news that the little guy is currently on leave of school and at home.

"Didn't go to school, why?" Shu Xia was a little puzzled.

Liu Zijun smiled and said, "Stupid child, have you forgotten that the Chengfeng Group is merged under the name of the merchant? How could mother not know what happened to that person? Although there is no reason to guard against wolves for a thousand days, for the sake of safety, let It's safer for the little guy to stay at home, and for academic matters, he directly hired a tutor, so don't worry."

"Ah, oh, thank you, Mom," Shu Xia felt instantly at ease, just like when he was afraid that he hadn't done something, and found that someone had already done it for him, and it was done perfectly. that appropriate.

"Well, don't worry, a mouse in the gutter can't make any sparks when it jumps," Liu Zijun said in his tone, with the illusion that the old cat god is watching the mouse jump.

Shu Xia thought about the animal shape of this family, and fell silent. Although it was rumored that the cat was the master of the tiger, but compared to the force value, the tiger was sure to win. A litter of tigers and a whole mouse were nothing to be afraid of.

Here, Shu Xia felt relieved, talked to the little guys for a while, and hung up the phone.

The streets of City A are as bustling as ever, and the flow of people near the shopping mall is also as large as ever. What is particularly eye-catching is a restaurant there. After a few hundred people, compared with the desertedness of the next door shops, they are particularly eye-catching.

There are a lot of stools outside the store, and the waiting customers sit and chat together, and check where the numbers are lined up from time to time, and they are not in a hurry.

"Linlang's is really delicious. When we opened the store before, we tried it once. We planned to come here as repeat customers if the store was not full, but it turned out that we couldn't get in the queue when it was full."

"Hey, did you meet the boss at that time? He looks really good-looking. I like him very much."

"I like it too, but the main thing is that the food is delicious."

"Looking forward to a romantic encounter."

"Haha, pull it down, you two stand together, he is a white swan, you are..."

"What is it?"

"Zhu Bajie, the species doesn't match, hahaha, don't hit, don't hit, I was wrong."

"Fuck off, break up the relationship!"

The girls had a happy discussion, but were interrupted by a hoarse voice, "Is the boss you're talking about called Shu Xia?"

A girl raised her head and looked at the man's distorted and hideous face. She froze for a moment, tried to calm herself down and said, "Yes, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, just to make sure," the man seemed to want to laugh, the veins stretched on his cheeks were even more terrifying, before the girls could say anything else, he turned and left.

"He's probably over-plasticized," said a girl next to him who was originally quiet.

"Who knows," another girl patted her chest and said, "No matter what others do, I won't fix it anyway."

"I'm not going either."

……

"Linlang..." Song Ruiduan took out the phone, it was pure black, there were many scratches on the back cover, and the edge of the screen was a little broken, he clicked, looked at the video that appeared on it, and smiled ferociously.

If you want to destroy a person, you must first destroy his career and break the pillars behind him. Just like him, he fell from the top of the pyramid and can only be trampled by others without any chance to get up.

In the semi-finals, the opponent was still decided by lottery. When the opponent was announced, Shu Xia breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the name on it. It would have been better if it hadn't been Du Ran. In another round, he would have to suspect that the two of them had made a mistake.

Du Ran beside him also breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Shu Xia, see you in the final."

"See you in the final," Shu Xia was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

The semi-finals should have been exciting, but Shu Xia felt that it was not as good as the quarter-finals last time.

In that game, the organizers played a lot of gimmicks, such as "two young chefs k duel", "witness friendship first, competition second", this kind of content, everyone loves to watch it the most, and their game, Definitely a thrill.

They couldn't see the discussion of the judges in the kitchen, but they could see it on TV. The scores of Shu Xia and Du Ran were originally equal, usually only accurate to the first decimal place, but because their scores They were even again, and they couldn't have both. The other group was directly eliminated, and they had to re-accurately score the scores, announcing that they had advanced to one with a gap of 001 points.

Seeing the toothache expressions of the judges on TV at that time, Shu Xia felt that it was a pity for them. The comments from the viewers had to be handed over to Shu Xia, which meant that the organizer had said that there would be a resurrection match, and the judges And the audience was appeased.

And also through TV, Shu Xia was able to see Du Ran's second work, a cliff with a torrential river below, birds resting on it, flying together, showing the appearance of just returning to the nest, a small dish, full of artistic conception , It doesn't look like a dish, but like a precious artwork collected in an art gallery.

Putting it together with Shu Xia's carp jumping over the dragon's gate, it seems that there are more vivid creatures, and the point that Shu Xia is far behind him is also lost here.

And compared to the quarter-finals, the semi-finals couldn't be said to be less exciting, but he always felt that something was missing.

The three dishes were served, and there was no sense of exhaustion that seemed to be exhausted that day.

The score is out, Shu Xia's group is 9896

Du Ran's group 9897

There is almost no suspense, the two advanced at the same time, but the chefs in this group did not quit so willingly, they proposed resurrection at the same time, just like switching opponents to re-compete, but unfortunately, as long as they are opponents, Shu Xia There is no habit of releasing water.

They still had to lose, but they seemed convinced when they lost. A chef held Shu Xia's hand and said, "Young man, please work hard. If you win, I can say, I lost!" I gave it to the champion, no loss."

"Okay, I will try my best," Shu Xia said with a smile.

The semi-finals are not considered the end, here is the candidate for the third place. After comparing with them, the two losers competed again, and the third place was determined.

The final is used to determine the champion and runner-up.

"Shu Xia, the final is the time for the real duel." Du Ran smiled innocently, and his tone was very gentle, but facing that position, he was bound to win, "I will show all my strength."

"Me too," Shu Xia smiled.

So far, he is not unreserved. It is not a smart person's approach to show all his strength in front of the opponent at once and let the opponent understand himself thoroughly.

The final is more grand than the semi-final.

The entire competition will take three days, no time limit, just look at the taste.

The essence of food, many times, is just in a hurry and cannot be made. It takes time to cook, stew, refine to the ultimate delicacy, and reveal the ultimate visual feast.

But the more relaxed the time, it means that there are more places to carve.

During the three days in between, he and Du Ran did not contact each other or meet each other. Shu Xia visited the streets and alleys in City B, or stayed somewhere to look at the scenery, and then entered the stadium with a smile on the day of the competition .
