People's interactions always turn strange once money is involved.
This was also true for Lv Shuyao's father.
After hearing Shen Qiang's proposal for him to beco the head chef of Datong River, he remained silent for a long ti before saying he would consider it.
Shen Qiang could understand that.
After all, he was the head chef of Dinghao, and with Shen Qiang's help, he had just led Dinghao to win the Provincial City regional championship of the Huaxia Culinary Awards. His position at Dinghao was very stable, and he was not clear about the specific situation at Shen Qiang and Datong River.
In such a circumstance, directly agreeing to move to Datong River was almost impossible.
Seeing this, Shen Qiang excused himself, saying he had other matters to attend to and left first.
It was obvious that if he stayed there any longer, once the people in the banquet hall ca to their senses, they would surely swarm him, making it impossible for him to break free.
After all, there were several hundred public judges.
The majority of them were related to the catering industry, inquiring about job hopping, the Earthen Mother's gifting customs, among various other aspects, and dealing with all that would be too troubleso.
So, even though being praised by them felt great, Shen Qiang still didn't want to get too involved.
By the ti he got ho, it was almost 3:30 in the afternoon.
The doll costu expert coldly told Shen Qiang that, according to his request, they had made him two pairs of underwear that accentuated an elegant deanor, and had placed them at the staircase.
Shen Qiang went over, picked up the underwear from the staircase, and went straight back to his bedroom. As soon as he entered, the phone rang.
When Shen Qiang saw the call was from Lv Shuyao, he had no choice but to set the underwear aside and answer the phone.
"Shen Qiang, you were amazing! I knew that if it were you, you could definitely take first place," Lv Shuyao's excited voice ca through the phone.
Shen Qiang laughed and said, "Of course, if I can't take first place, then no one in this world can."
Lv Shuyao burst into a girlish laugh, "Ha? Not modest at all, are you?"
"What's there to be modest about? The first place isn't self-proclaid by . How about it, are you satisfied now?"
Lv Shuyao laughed, "You did it so perfectly, of course I'm satisfied. Not only that, you're now trending."
"Trending?" Shen Qiang was sowhat surprised.
Lv Shuyao giggled, "Many posts about you have already erged online. There's stuff published by tabloid journalists, by food critics, and the most impressive thing is, even the official website of the Huaxia Culinary Awards updated the news, proclaiming you as the dark horse of this competition."
Shen Qiang laughed, "Don't tease , in such a situation, even if they recognize a dark horse, they would just recognize the Dinghao team. They don't even know what my na is."
Lv Shuyao laughed sweetly, "Don't be too modest now. 'dicinal Food Expert Shen Qiang' is quite famous, you know. My fans care about you more than they care about . Don't believe ? Go online and check. After seeing your photo, many foodies recognized you."
Shen Qiang laughed, "That's all thanks to your influence."
Lv Shuyao laughed, "What are you talking about? It's who benefits from your influence. With so many food livestrears online, if it weren't for your help, I would have been drowned in the sea of people long ago."
Shen Qiang laughed, "Without you, the great beauty, no one would watch my livestreams."
Lv Shuyao playfully spat, chiding, "What are you saying? Now in the livestream room, there are lots of your fangirls, clamoring to eat Beauty dicinal Food and et Brother Shen Qiang."
Shen Qiang's eyes crinkled with his smile, "Wow, that's sour. How many jars of vinegar have you drunk?"
"Pfft! I'm not jealous," Lv Shuyao retorted teasingly, "If I were that jealous, I would call you every day and tell you to faithfully wait for to co back."
Shen Qiang laughed, "But I am waiting for your return."
Lv Shuyao spat out, "Ha, still lying to ? I just talked to Xin Xiaoting the day before yesterday, and she said you've recently beco close with a female assistant, glued to each other all day."
Shen Qiang imdiately felt a bit awkward, fully aware that she was referring to Su Xiaonuan.
Seeing that Shen Qiang stayed silent, Lv Shuyao giggled and said, "What are you stupefied for? I'm not blaming you. Xin Xiaoting and I both study dicine; we couldn't care less about who you're sleeping with. It's just that, it seems you haven't visited Xin Xiaoting for quite so ti."
"She's scared to see you because she doesn't know if you've stopped liking her."
Feeling awkward, Shen Qiang said, "How could I not like her? It's just that sotis I feel like I'm a bit of a scumbag, not very faithful."
Lv Shuyao laughed out loud, "Faithful is a word that seems funny when applied to n, so I have no interest in keeping track of your private life. All I know is, you stepped up when I needed help and solved a big problem for !"
Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed and imdiately said, "So how should you thank ?"
Lv Shuyao was taken aback and then giggled, "You bad guy, always wanting sothing in return after helping out, not cute at all."
"Emperors don't dispatch troops without promise of reward; there has to be so sort of prize."
Hearing Shen Qiang's words, Lv Shuyao said with a seductive laugh, "Alright, alright, alright, you make sense, you're the biggest, you're the best, I'll listen to you." Saying this, Lv Shuyao's tone suddenly beca shy, "Whatever you want, just do it; can't I just let you have your way with ?"
Shen Qiang's eyes imdiately lit up, "Really? Whatever I say goes?"
"Mm," Lv Shuyao replied shyly.
Shen Qiang imdiately exclaid with joy, "Baby, I miss you, send a video quickly."
On the other end of the phone, Lv Shuyao chided playfully, "Can't do it, it's not convenient over here."
Shen Qiang was disappointed, "But you just agreed a mont ago."
With a coquettish tone, Lv Shuyao said, "What if I send you a picture instead, is that okay?"
"Sure, but make it a nude one!" Shen Qiang's eyes were shining brightly.
On the other end of the phone, Lv Shuyao spat out disdainfully and said with annoyance, "Pervert, what kind of normal person would make such a request? What normal person would take such photos?"
Shen Qiang was startled, feeling disappointed.
Then the vibration of an incoming ssage on his phone caught his attention. He checked it.
Shen Qiang's eyes imdiately lit up again.
It was Lv Shuyao's photo from England.
Compared to when she left, she seed thinner.
Her already petite figure had beco more slender.
But her choice of clothing was quite conservative, and her classmates who appeared in the photo were even dressed like nuns, which left Shen Qiang utterly speechless.
Almost at the sa mont Shen Qiang felt disappointed,
as the photos loaded, the next two images were, shockingly, of an exquisitely ford, snow-white figure, completely nude!
Instantly, Shen Qiang's eyes brightened, and mories of the ti the two of them had spent together involuntarily ca flooding back to his mind.
As he excitedly admired them, Lv Shuyao's shy chiding ca through the phone, "I was afraid you'd miss , so I took them especially for you, you bad guy. Are you satisfied now?"
Hearing this, Shen Qiang grinned from ear to ear and said, "Of course, apart from my wife's beauty, I refuse all bribes."
