After the empress transmigrated, she became the judge of the entertainment industry.

Amidst the barrage of comments and attacks, there was also considerable discussion about the food. However, as the main dishes were completed, the arguments finally quieted down.

Zhu Song patrolled the area, and each group had a dedicated staff member who observed them and scored their cooperation. He was in charge of the overall team.

However... they really can produce results beyond imagination as long as they have the ingredients... Zhu Song thought to himself, looking at the freshly served cheese-baked lobster.

Because of the cold weather, the production team specially prepared heated placemats so that everyone could put the dishes they had prepared on them.

By dinnertime, all the dishes were ready.

Ye Wanyin didn't help Ye Sanqing and the others while they were cooking, but after they finished, she secretly prepared a dish in the empty space and brought it over.

"Wait a minute," Ye Sanqing reached out to stop her, "What do you mean by this?"

Everyone had gathered around the long table, ready to start their meal, but the two of them blocked their way.

Ye Wanyin: "Sister... I just wanted to contribute my share, you don't need to be so wary of me..."

She didn't say it directly; instead, she tiptoed on one foot, twisting and turning shyly several times before stammering out the words.

If she weren't holding a plate, she would definitely have put her hands behind her back and said it with a shy expression while looking down.

After a busy afternoon, everyone was starving, and the aroma wafting from the long table behind them was simply unbearable for most people.

"If you wanted to participate, why didn't you say so earlier?" Ye Sanqing didn't want to argue with her and shouted directly, "Director! I request that this dish not be included in our group's score!"

“Ah, sister…” Ye Wanyin said, holding the covered plate in both hands, “You didn’t even look at what I made before making such a decision. Isn’t that a bit too much? What if… what if the other dishes get low scores? Maybe my dish can help raise the score.”

As she spoke, she glanced at the dishes Ye Sanqing and the others had prepared, giving off an expression that said, "I'm worried about you guys, but I won't say anything. I'll just quietly clean up your messes behind the scenes."

“No need, it’s pointless for you to cook any dishes,” Ye Sanqing said.

Ye Siqing tried to persuade her, but before she could speak, Ye Jin'er pulled her behind her.

Ye Jin'er was all too familiar with Ye Wanyin's tactics.

For example, even though there was a chef at home before, and cooking was just a matter of asking, she insisted on not letting the chef make a hangover soup when Ye Tian came home after drinking, and insisted on showing off herself.

It's true that Ye Sanqing ordered her not to help, but he clearly saw her pacing around the ingredients, thinking no one was paying attention to her.

Here it comes! Luckily, Ye Sanqing is still thinking straight!

Zhu Song came over, and Ye Sanqing said to him, "Making this dish was Ye Wanyin's personal project, not a dish completed by our group, so I don't think it can be used in the competition."

Ye Sanqing made his point very clearly, but Zhu Song completely ignored Ye Wanyin's innocent and selfless expression, saying, "In that case, Teacher Ye, let's set this dish aside for now."

"..." Ye Wanyin tried to argue, but was stung by Ye Sanqing's cold gaze, and quickly put down the dishes she had carefully prepared.

She felt as if Ye Sanqing's eyes were saying, "You'd better put it down quickly while I'm telling you to, otherwise things will be different when I take action later."

Then she stared blankly at the food, biting her lip and shedding tears.

[The girl who violently bullied you should get off the show!]

Poor Wanwan, her only younger brother standing beside her couldn't help her because her older brother was there... Wanwan tried so hard to fit into this family, why did she only receive this treatment?

[Hmm...don't make me laugh. If we were really family, would we need to use the word 'integration'?]

[Hey bro, did your tone change?]

[What's with the change in tone? I was just angry! Who wouldn't be annoyed by this? She didn't say a word, just wandered around on the sidelines. I'm speechless. She managed to wander around for two hours in such a small space, and didn't even offer to help. She only did it after everyone else finished? Is she crazy?]

【Don't say that. Wanwan has been waiting for this opportunity to show herself (heart emoji). Now that she's putting on an act, isn't that also a form of showcasing herself?】

[Yeah, if you ask me, you fans shouldn't worry too much. Maybe this is exactly the effect she wanted. With you guys jumping around in the comments so much, she's probably just annoyed by you.]

We just pity Wanwan!

【Who's going to have pity on our eyes? After a long day at work, we come home to relax with some variety shows, and all we see is our boss's innocent, naive self peeking out from under the sun?】

Naturally, no one paid any attention to Ye Wanyin, except for Tong Wuyu, who went over to offer a few perfunctory words of advice.

When Gao Feibai saw this scene, he thought to himself that this woman and Ye Sanqing were not on good terms, but were actually sisters. She might be able to join his revenge plan.

Since Sheng Hanyu's group finished first, everyone naturally started with their dishes.

The cheese lobster placed in the very center is very eye-catching, and there are four other dishes around it: cheese meat patties, Italian red seafood soup, creamed chicken, vegetable omelet, beef shoulder and vegetable risotto, and a plate of pasta as the main course.

"I'm sorry, I didn't time it right. I cooked it too fast, which caused the dish to sit for a little longer, which may affect the flavor," Sheng Hanyu said apologetically.

Ye Sanqing had his eye on the plate of meat pies for a while. He quickly picked one up, ate it, and gave him a thumbs up with a satisfied expression. "No problem, it's delicious!"

"It's good that it tastes good." Sheng Hanyu smiled as she received the praise.

After tasting it, everyone nodded in approval, and even Gao Feibai, who had been skeptical, couldn't find fault with the lobster.

Oh no, he really knows how to do it!

Tong Wuyu regretted not being able to take photos with her phone, otherwise she could have saved the pictures and posted them on Weibo with a vague caption saying that the young master of the Shengda family made the dishes for her, which would have definitely attracted attention!

"So much cheese and meat, it's so greasy!" Cheng Yanye complained, but he couldn't find fault with the dishes.

He had to admit that, from the perspective of someone who had never had a bad meal since birth, the other person's cooking skills were above average.

“First of all, with my technique, it’s impossible for anyone to feel overwhelmed. Secondly, if you do find it overwhelmed, there are other dishes available,” Sheng Hanyu said.

He chose these dishes specifically so that Ye Sanqing could get more calories. Besides, there was no rating for dish pairings in the scoring criteria.

Cheng Yanye remained silent and angrily ate two bites of lobster.

Ye Wanyin shed tears for a while, and then came over after Tong Wuyu paved the way.

She hated this part of the meal. It was one thing to be asked to cook, but today there were Western ingredients available, which would finally give her a chance to showcase her culinary skills. However, Ye Sanqing wouldn't even let her sit at the table.

Moreover, seeing that Sheng Hanyu and the others were cooking Western food, she specially chose a Spanish creamy garlic shrimp dish, which was one of the few relatively simple Western dishes she could make. She originally intended to give it to Sheng Hanyu for feedback, but Ye Sanqing ruined it.

What's even worse about this part is that we have to taste it! With so many calories, she doesn't even want to think about what she'll become after taking a bite.

Only a woman like Ye Sanqing could eat so heartily without caring at all!

No... So, he actually made these dishes for Ye Sanqing?

Ye Wanyin was filled with hatred, and even the delicious food she ate could not dispel her hatred.

That damned Ye Sanqing, she absolutely has to snatch Sheng Hanyu away from her!

After Sheng Hanyu's group, it was Ye Sanqing's group's turn. Everyone showed a surprised expression after tasting it.

This set first included rosemary roasted chicken and salt-roasted sea bass made by Ye Sanqing, followed by sauerkraut and pork belly, scrambled eggs with scallions, and braised goose in an iron pot, all made by Ye Siqing under Ye Sanqing's guidance, along with a stir-fried tofu salad with sizzling oil.

Although they seem unrelated... there's no rule that you have to cook a particular cuisine.

"How is it? Not bad, right?" Ye Jin'er, who had only helped wash the vegetables, didn't know how the finished product turned out. Seeing Pei Canxing's complicated expression, she quickly asked.

"The taste is fine, but why does it feel so familiar..." If he hadn't been with Sheng Hanyu the whole time, Pei Canxing would have suspected that Sheng Hanyu had gone to another group to substitute for him.

Admittedly, these dishes didn't look perfect, but they tasted great. In fact, they were about 50-60% similar to the dishes Sheng Hanyu usually made. Everyone present who had eaten his food could tell the difference, which was the source of their surprise.

"I'm sorry, I learned cooking from Xiao Sheng," Ye Sanqing explained.

These dishes were all made by Sheng Hanyu before, and she guided Ye Siqing to make them based on her memory.

"Sister, when did Teacher Sheng ever teach you how to cook?" Ye Wanyin seized on her slip of the tongue and shouted, "Don't you know that stealing someone else's cooking skills is wrong? It's a very serious matter! You may not understand, but you need to apologize to Teacher Sheng right now!"

"Teacher Ye, please be careful what you say." Sheng Hanyu immediately stopped her when she heard that something was wrong.

He was just surprised because Ye Sanqing could imitate six-tenths of him just by watching, and she didn't even have to do it herself.

As for the two grilled dishes, they were probably her actual skill level; the seasoning was a bit too heavy, but the cooking time was fine.

If she hadn't stepped into a kitchen in the previous twenty-odd years, then she was...

Where did this genius come from?!

"I have never had the concept of apprenticeship here. It is my honor to learn from Master Ye. Please do not say such things that could be misunderstood," Sheng Hanyu said solemnly.

It's true that stealing someone's recipe is a big no-no in the industry, but the problem is that he's not a professional chef. It's just a hobby for him. Making people happy with their food is what makes him most satisfied. Not to mention that the person imitating him is a genius, which only makes him happy.

"Is that so..." Ye Wanyin said with an expression that said, "I understand you're speaking up for her, but this behavior is still wrong. Everyone in front of the screen, please don't imitate this."
