He's obviously the villain, but the heroine is all for him?

Ye Hui even changed into a maid outfit. After hearing his voice, her tense body relaxed and she leaned against him: "I guessed it."

"Since you guessed so accurately, then...what should I reward you with?"

Chapter 24 Master, I don’t want to compete anymore

Inside the villa, the sliding door of the kitchen was closed, and the figures of a man and a woman were intertwined inside.

The stove was off, the pot was covered with a lid, and the cook's maid who was supposed to be holding the spatula was lying beside the stove.

She bent her waist and stuck out her buttocks, and the young man behind her held her slender waist without any hesitation and did some exercises.

After a long time, Ye Hui let out a long, extremely restrained cry. She lay on the stove, gasping for breath, while Ling Yun supported her waist and let them rest for a while.

Don't get me wrong, they're just doing their daily physical exercise.

After Ye Hui regained some strength, Ling Yun turned her over again and held her and continued...

Lunch was naturally delayed for more than half an hour, and after expending a lot of energy, the two of them ate with extra relish.

"Sister Xiaohui, do you want to become a cooking god?"

"Master Chef? How can you change so easily?"

Ye Hui was eating. She was very hungry. Her thin arms and legs were nowhere near as strong as Ling Yun's, and she couldn't stand the hard work at all.

"You know about the Chef King Competition, right?"

"I know. Just before you came back, all the platforms suddenly started pushing this ad. Even the splash screen ad on Penguin Communications became this!"

Ling Yun took out his cell phone and opened it, and found that it was true.

This Joanna really exceeded her own expectations!

Ling Yun smacked his lips. He wondered how much money he had spent on promotion. He couldn't make it back just by relying on those kitchenware ads.

However, this amount of money is of no significance to Morningstar Group. The managers below dared not say a word when they learned that it was his order. After all, the young boss can do whatever he wants and it does not affect their salary. Maybe they can even get a promotion and a raise if they please the young boss.

The venue for the competition was in a stadium in the imperial capital. It had been prepared in advance, but the investor ran away and some subsequent things could not be handed over.

With the strong participation of Morningstar Group, everything can be completed in 2-3 days, and the remaining time is left for the contestants and judges to prepare.

After lunch, Joanna called Ling Yun again.

"Boss Xiao Ling, how about... you come over here?"

"what's up?"

"Something is not right..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Yun suddenly heard Xiaoxi's prompt tone.

[The "protagonist" Feng Jixiang suffered a blow, his luck weakened by 100 points, currently at 700/800!]

No, who the hell is this "protagonist"? Why am I suddenly so shocked when I haven't even met him yet?

[Brother, Wang Hao is now your younger brother, so when he comes into contact with other "protagonists" and interacts with them, he can also help you weaken their luck!]

"Wang Hao should be taking the judges' test. Could it be that Feng Jixiang is the protagonist of the MasterChef?"

【Bingo! Brother guessed it right!】

Ye Hui also heard their conversation. After washing the dishes, she quickly picked up the keys. After seeing him hang up the phone, she took the initiative to ask, "Can I drive you there?"

Ling Yun nodded, and the two drove to the backstage of the competition venue.

At this moment, backstage, the previous chef, Wang Lao Fugui, affectionately took Wang Hao's hand and insisted that he cook another dish.

Standing aside was Yao Zhiming, who had brought his apprentice to apply for special competition qualifications.

Feng Jixiang was originally quite confident in his cooking skills. Even if he tried his best, even the master chef might not be his match.

But at this moment, as he tasted the home-cooked dish that Wang Hao had just made, he felt a chill in his heart.

It has a perfect color, aroma and taste... No, it can’t be said to be complete, it’s overflowing!

He didn't believe that this dish was made by the boy with the flat head. If he had told him that it was made by Lao Fugui, he wouldn't have been so shocked!

The gap is too big, as big as a chasm!

They had just arrived and the dishes had already been served on the table. Several judges were tasting the dishes and praised them highly after eating them.

After all, Yao Zhiming was once the runner-up, and the judges all knew him and invited him to come and try it.

This taste made both the master and the disciple speechless.

"Grandpa, is there something wrong with the dish I made?"

"No, no, no, young man, the dish you cooked is so good, so good that it makes me doubt my own taste buds. Come on, make another one. If you can, I will directly use my name to recommend you to the finals, without having to participate in those tedious preliminary rounds!"

Lao Fugui's words made the other judges gasp in amazement, but they also admitted in their hearts that Wang Hao's cooking skills were already far ahead, and there was really no need for him to participate in the preliminary round. He could just show his best skills and compete for the title of King Chef!

Feng Jixiang was no longer in a hurry. Although he had suffered a bit of a blow, he firmly believed that this young man who was younger than him would not be so strong.

He secretly glanced at Joanna and felt a sense of admiration for this beautiful older sister, but he felt that he was completely unworthy of her.

Joanna stood aside, and for some reason, she had a natural aversion to Wang Hao and Feng Jixiang. It wasn't that the two boys were ugly, but after doing some private things with Ling Yun in the office that morning, comparing Ling Yun to these two men was like heaven and earth.

Wang Hao understood in his mind that as long as he could complete the tasks assigned by Ling Yun, he could save some time and do more tasks to contribute to Young Master Ling's work!

He did it right away. He lit the stove again, picked up a few eggs and tomatoes beside him, and prepared to fry some eggs.

Just when he was about to turn off the engine and finish the work, Ling Yun and Ye Hui arrived.

"Boss Xiao Ling!"

Joanna immediately put on a smile and trotted to Ling Yun.

When she saw Ye Hui, she also greeted her politely: "Xiao Hui, you are here too?"

"Sister Anna." Ye Hui smiled sweetly. She was 25 years old and Joanna was 26, just one year older than her.

The two girls had met several times before and had contact with each other. Their relationship was pretty good. Joanna even secretly asked Ye Hui about some of Ling Yun's daily private affairs.

After seeing the tall and handsome Ling Yun, Feng Jixiang turned his head slightly.

He didn't like Ling Yun, it could be said that he really disliked her. It was the kind of rejection and a little inferiority complex that one feels when meeting an extremely outstanding person of the same sex.

From what Joanna called him, that pretty boy should be the son of the company's big boss...

Ling Yun still appeared friendly to the outside world. After greeting the judges and Yao Zhiming present, he looked at Feng Jixiang.

[Name: Feng Jixiang]

【Age: 21】

【Favorites: 5】

【Combat strength: 10】

[Special: Gold Finger (Blue): Extremely talented in cooking. Carefully prepared dishes have special benefits for the eater.]

[Identity: Protagonist of "Chef King"]

[Recent Opportunities: I will perform well on the upcoming test, attracting Old Fugui's attention and being brought home for intensive tutoring.]

[Luck: 700/800]

He is a very ordinary "protagonist" and he doesn't even have the intention to take advantage of others.

"Xiao Xi, tell me about your background."

Feng Jixiang, a kitchen helper at a restaurant, was spotted by head chef Yao Zhiming after a dish he cooked was so delicious it caught his eye. He was subsequently promoted to his position as a disciple. Yao Zhiming had previously competed in the Imperial Capital's Chef's Championship, but narrowly lost to the current Chef King, Lao Fugui. Upon learning that the Championship would be held again, he decided to train a new apprentice. Relying on his exceptional talent, Feng Jixiang quickly surpassed his master in culinary skills. Before the competition, he met Joanna and was astounded by her beauty. However, knowing that these skills alone wouldn't make him a Chef King, he painstakingly developed a dish that ultimately won him the championship, becoming the new Chef King.

Ling Yun smiled faintly, took the hands of the two girls, and walked towards Wang Hao.

Sure enough, this trick worked. When Feng Jixiang saw his goddess leaning on Ling Yun with a sweet look on her face, his heart gradually broke.

Feng Jixiang saw that the goddess favored his brother and ignored him, and his mentality was damaged. His luck was weakened by 50 points, currently 650/800!

Feng Jixiang felt even more upset when he saw Ye Hui also had a happy expression on her face.

Are his goddess and another equally beautiful older sister both the girlfriends of that pretty boy?

Why? They are so outstanding, shouldn’t I be jealous?

Money... It must be because of money... Their smiles must be fake. It must be this damn pretty boy who coerced and bribed them into submission!

I can do it. I can work hard. As long as I become the king of chefs and make a name for myself, I can also make countless money like Senior Lao Fugui!

Ling Yun was aware of his burning fighting spirit. The young man looked back curiously, then turned his head away with a smile.

It's a good thing to have fighting spirit, which makes you feel like a "protagonist". Otherwise, it won't feel good when you're being tortured.

Wang Hao moved quickly and served the food on a plate after frying!

It smells good, really good.

But Ling Yun took the hands of the two girls and took a step back.

Ever since he learned that Xiaoxi had modified Wang Hao's system to be homosexual-oriented, he completely kept his distance from Wang Hao.

God knows what his hands have touched!

He absolutely dared not eat this dish.

Wang Hao looked at Lao Fugui with a smile. Without saying a word, the old chef Wang picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of scrambled egg. His eyes lit up after he finished eating.

Seeing that something was wrong, Yao Zhiming immediately pulled his apprentice forward, barely managed to snatch a piece, and shared it with his apprentice.

After finishing his meal, Yao Zhiming sighed deeply. He had forgotten his chances of becoming the Chef Champion this time. Although he hadn't competed yet, he was convinced of his defeat. However, he had tempered his character for so long, so he decided to compete, at least to make a name for himself at his current workplace.

Feng Jixiang's heart sank to his bones, and he stood there in silence.

After a while, seeing that the judges jointly recommended Wang Hao to the finals, Feng Jixiang secretly took the master's hand and whispered.

"Master, I don't want to compete anymore."

Yao Zhiming patted his shoulder hard, causing Feng Jixiang's face to twitch in pain.

"Xiao Feng, what did you taste from this egg?"

"taste good……"

"No, you saw the cooking process firsthand and tasted it. With your skills, what haven't you tasted yet?"

Feng Jixiang's eyes gradually brightened, and the scene he had just witnessed replayed in his mind like a movie.

He immediately ran to the empty plate, dipped his finger in the soup, and after feeling the feedback from his finger, he put it in his mouth and chewed with his eyes closed.

Little did they know that this scene shocked Old Fugui who was standing by.

They are so similar. He looks exactly like his ancestor, the genius chef Xiao Fugui!

Could it be... the legendary chef's golden finger!

If the dishes he cooks later satisfy me, I can invite him to my home for a visit. Maybe I can find a suitable successor to the "Chef's Cookbook"...

After tasting the food, Feng Jixiang brought the pot used by Wang Hao, washed it, and then started to fry the eggs following the same process.

Ling Yun raised his eyebrows. This guy was probably trying to show off. No, he had to interrupt the spell!

He gave Wang Hao a wink, and the other party immediately understood. He ran to the distribution room under the pretext of going to the toilet and turned off the power directly.

The backstage was pitch black, and Feng Jixiang, who was caught off guard, successfully burnt the food.

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.

Even though Feng Jixiang was confident that he could restore Wang Hao's scrambled eggs with tomatoes to 7% of his level, he no longer had the ambition to do so.

However, his cooking skills were still good, and after re-frying the dish, he was qualified to participate in the competition.

However, Wang Hao's performance was so outstanding that the judges were not very interested in him, and Lao Fugui also gave up his previous idea.

[My brother successfully instigated Wang Hao to sabotage Feng Jixiang's cooking demonstration, causing him to miss a crucial opportunity. His Luck has been weakened by 200 points, currently at 450/800!]

Ling Yun did not use his power to disqualify him from the competition. He spent a lot of money to host this competition. How could the "protagonist" not come? Of course he had to humiliate him severely in the final.

At present, Feng Jixiang's whereabouts are under his control. If he does not participate in this competition and goes to some other competition to shine, it would be a waste of time.

After the master and apprentice left, the judges surrounded Ling Yun and started praising him, using words like "handsome man", "talented man and beautiful woman", "beacon of the future" and so on.

Looking at Lao Fugui's bright and flattering smile, Ling Yun smiled on his face but sighed in his heart.

Even if I don't care about Feng Jixiang, even if he becomes the king of chefs, will it pose a threat to me?

Even if he just lay there and did nothing, letting the Bai family take action, the "protagonists" he met might have an even more miserable end.
