The photo of the Pumpkin Soup not only successfully attracted Chen Yan and Shen Baobao, who were exercising.
Even Lu Lu, who had just finished teaching students power techniques at the boxing club, was captivated.
She pulled out her phone, tapped on the contact labeled "Willows Dangling," and rapidly typed out a ssage:
"Your boss’s Pumpkin Soup looks good. When you’re not busy, can you make so for to try? If you’re busy, no worries, no pressure. [fist][fist][fist]"
After sending it, she followed up with a sticker of Red Wolf hitting Grey Wolf with a frying pan, then continued her training at the club.
As for the other netizens surfing the web, a chorus of lants arose:
"I just want to know when these will be added to the restaurant’s nu."
"Does Boss Lin have a grudge against money? Why is he always making delicious food that’s not for sale?"
"Is there a possibility that these dishes haven’t t Boss Lin’s standards, which is why he hasn’t allowed them to be added to the nu?"
"The Roast Suckling Pig, Frozen Tendon, Stead Egg with Brain, Silverfish Olet, Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms, Winter lon Stuffed with Chicken Breast, and Beef Sandwiched in Sesa Bread haven’t been added to the nu these past few days. Did none of them et his standards?"
"Hiss... Stop it, stop it! I’m hungry again just after finishing my takeout."
"I really want to go to Lin Ji and splurge on a al, but sadly, my wallet’s too thin; I can hardly afford to eat at Sand Ji’s Hotel anymore..."
While the netizens were discussing this, an official account verified as Lin Ji’s Food suddenly posted an update:
"Hello everyone! To celebrate Lin Ji’s opening, our restaurant is launching a ’King of Dinners’ event. From now until 10 PM this Friday, the top fifty posts with the most likes under the #LinJisFood topic will receive an invitation to Lin Ji’s opening. With this invitation, you can enjoy a lavish lunch at our restaurant and receive a 20% discount on all purchases for one month..."
The company had initially planned to announce this promotional event during the day.
However, there weren’t many active netizens online at that ti, so the post didn’t make much of an impact.
Just as Dou Wenjing and the marketing departnt staff were fretting, Geng Lele provided a tily assist.
Riding the wave of the Pumpkin Soup’s popularity, they used the newly registered official account to post an update under the Lin Ji’s Food topic and also released the nu for the ’King of Dinners’ event.
All the dishes netizens were clamoring for—such as Roast Suckling Pig, Frozen Tendon, and Stead Egg with Brain, among others not yet available in the restaurant—were included.
There were twenty dishes in total, including hot and cold dishes, soups, and desserts. The netizens’ enthusiasm was instantly ignited.
What? The top fifty liked posts win a free feast fit for a king and a 20% discount for a month? What are we waiting for? Let’s hurry up and write so creative posts!
Instantly, aspiring literary talents, hidden folk poets, and wandering wordsmiths erged from the woodwork, all eager to showcase their skills.

While the netizens’ creativity was in full flow, Shen Baobao and Chen Yan, having rushed over from the tennis court, were in a booth on the second floor of Lin Ji’s Food, holding bowls of the freshly made Pumpkin Soup.
After Geng Lele posted the update online, many people in the restaurant saw it.
The shyer ones hinted subtly to the waiters, while the bolder ones went straight to the second floor to ask for so.
Lin Xu had no choice but to have the waiters serve the remaining Pumpkin Soup for everyone to taste. Since Zhu Yong and Qin Wei weren’t too busy at that mont, he also asked them to make so more.
Since everyone was so interested, each person could try a small bowl.
But starting tomorrow, they would have to pay for it.
This was because Shu Yun had already instructed the company to update the nu overnight, adding the universally praised Pumpkin Soup to the top of the soup section.
While Zhu Yong and Qin Wei prepared it, they also garnished the Pumpkin Soup with thinly sliced, rehydrated goji berries to enhance its presentation as much as possible.
"Wow, this is delicious! It tastes just like the one at the Korean-style Grilled at restaurant," Chen Yan exclaid.
She had originally planned to eat cucumbers as a al replacent but found the Pumpkin Soup equally appealing. Since they’re both pumpkin-based, the calorie count should be the sa whether it’s eaten directly or as a soup, right?
Never mind, I’ll just co over tomorrow morning and have three big bowls first, she decided.
"Brother-in-law, what’s for breakfast tomorrow? Will there be Pumpkin Soup?"
"Tomorrow morning, it might be stead at Dragon or sothing similar, depending on what the morning shift chef decides to make," Lin Xu replied. "If there’s anything specific you’d like, let know, and I’ll give the morning shift chef a heads-up."
