[May Leave Make-Up Update]

When Qin Lang once again raised his head in realization, the two girls, Little Orange, and Yan Chao’s family had already left his stall, their destination unknown.

In front of him stood Zhou Tianhao.

“Big brother Zhou, would you like to try my improved crab roe fried rice?”

“I’ve been meaning to.” Zhou Tianhao nodded slightly, “Give me one of each.”

Before long, two servings of crab roe fried rice were delivered to Zhou Tianhao’s hands.

As for the crab roe fried rice, Zhou Tianhao’s memory lingered on the second event from yesterday afternoon.

In just one night, not only had the crab roe fried rice been presented in an entirely new version, but it could also be seasoned with crab vinegar; this gave him the impression that he hadn’t visited Qin Lang’s stall in a long while.

This sparked a pinch of interest in Zhou Tianhao’s heart.

On his way over, he’d already eaten all three dishes he had bought from Luo Xian’s place.

To be fair, aside from Autumn Blade Lemon, both of the other dishes were subtly more delicious than Qin Lang’s crab roe fried rice.

But now, Qin Lang’s crab roe fried rice had been improved.

He was unsure which would be superior after the improvement.

Zhou Tianhao lifted the original version of crab roe fried rice, scooped a spoonful without adding crab vinegar, savoured it for a while then affirmed his previous judgment.

Indeed, it was slightly inferior to Luo Xian’s dishes.

Next, he picked up the crab vinegar and brought it close to his nose to smell it.

The crab vinegar had a sour but not stimulating scent, fresh and aromatic, which raised Zhou Tianhao’s eyebrows.

This aroma…

Was quite interesting!

He estimated his own taste, added few drops onto the crab roe, then stirred it with a small spoon. He then tasted the remaining crab roe fried rice.

“Oh wow!”

As soon as it went in his mouth, the uniquely fresh sour taste intertwined with the rich flavour of the crab roe itself, creating a unique and wonderful taste that made Zhou Tianhao’s pupils slightly contract.

This taste… was as equally outstanding as Luo Xian’s dish called Blue Spear.

Zhou Tianhao made a judgement in his heart.

With the aid of crab vinegar, the taste of crab roe fried rice was greatly enhanced.

Merely adding one seasoning could achieve such effect – Zhou Tianhao’s admiration for Qin Lang deepened.

His little brother’s culinary skills were even more profound than he had thought.

Without further ado, Zhou Tianhao started tasting the spicy version of the crab roe fried rice.

Quickly, he came to a conclusion again.

The spicy version of the crab roe fried rice, without the crab vinegar, was as good as the original version with the crab vinegar, at least in his opinion.

After the spicy version of the crab roe fried rice has been seasoned with crab vinegar, its taste could even compare to that of Ocean Emblem – Luo Xian’s most expensive and skillfully made dish.

This can’t be!

Zhou Tianhao was increasingly looking forward to the clash between these two.

“Little Qin, do you know a Spirit Chef named Luo Xian?” Zhou Tianhao took the initiative to ask with a smile.

“Of course.” Qin Lang smiled, “I was planning to get the chance to experience his culinary skills today.”

“I’ve tasted all three of his dishes. In my opinion…” Zhou Tianhao honestly told Qin Lang about the judgement he had just made.

His words left Qin Lang in deep thought.

The original crab roe fried rice flavored with crab vinegar was the complete taste of the crab roe fried rice.

On the other hand, the spicy version was an improvement he had made under the guidance of Ms. Ye Cangqing.

The taste of the spicy version of the crab roe fried rice with crab vinegar surpassed the taste of the original version from his previous life.

This delicious taste was on par with that of Luo Xian’s Ocean Emblem?

Qin Lang’s curiosity towards Luo Xian’s three dishes was piqued even more.

“Thankyou, big Brother Zhou,” Qin Lang expressed gratitude, “I will visit Mr. Luo Xian’s stall during the lunch exchange later.”

“Good.” Zhou Tianhao bid his farewell with a hearty wave, satisfied that his goal had been achieved.

It was a pity that he didn’t participate in the Leaping Fish Banquet as a stall owner; he was unable to take part in the exchange activity and missed a good show.

Time slipped away by the second and soon the morning business came to an end.

As the sound of an electric bell echoed in the air above the deck, the food guests left the venue in an orderly manner under the guidance of the staff.

As soon as he finished counting the remaining ingredients with the two little ones, Qin Lang breathed a sigh of relief.

Thanks to the plentiful preparations made in advance, the remaining ingredients were more than enough. The staff would only need to supplement a bit in the afternoon.

“Now, let’s announce the voting results after the end of round four!” The host’s voice quickly silenced everyone on-site who were mildly agitated.

Qin Lang turned his head towards the High Platform, with curiosity on his face.

He wondered how many votes he had gotten and how many votes Mr. Luo Xian had received.

His curiosity was quickly satisfied.

Qin Lang was still the top-scoring candidate in the Youth Group, currently holding more than eighteen thousand votes. The rate at which his votes increased during the fourth round yet again drew attention.

However, what was even more astonishing than his progress was Luo Xian’s.

Luo Xian’s total votes amounted to over twenty-one thousand. His votes doubled in the fourth round. As soon as his latest vote count was announced, there were gasps of surprise heard everywhere in the field.

Just the votes that Qin Lang and Luo Xian received in the fourth round alone were already close to twenty thousand. This affected all the Spirit Chefs on-site.

Most Spirit Chef’s vote increases compared to yesterday showed a decline rather than an increase.

Therefore, when the rest period was over and the exchange stage began, each Spirit Chef could not sit still. They went to the stalls of Qin Lang and Luo Xian, wanting to see what kind of magic their dishes held.

However, the Spirit Chefs who arrived at Qin Lang’s stall would not be able to get the answer they were looking for.

That’s because during today’s exchange session, Qin Lang was a food guest.

Having skipped lunch, he went early to line up at Luo Xian’s stall.

Luo Xian was nowhere to be found until the electric bell signalling the start of the exchange session rang, upon which he casually returned to his own stall.

Qin Lang could not help but to scrutinise the middle-aged man who approached.

With a gentle smile on his face, the man exuded a sense of warmth and calmness. A strange, stable quality radiated from him, making one unable to help but think, “This man has had a wealth of experiences and knowledge.”

Luo Xian, too, noticed Qin Lang, who was standing at the front of the queue at his stall.

A flash of an unnoticed smile passed through his eyes.

“You must be Qin Lang,” Luo Xian greeted Qin Lang with a beaming smile, “You have such amazing culinary skills at such a young age. I really envy you.”

“You flatter me. I’m merely standing on the shoulders of giants,” Qin Lang humbly responded.

Behind him stood the entire world of food culture, after all.

“The shoulders of giants, huh…” Luo Xian chuckled, “Even so, climbing onto the shoulders of giants is not an easy task.”

He stopped delving into the topic, changing the subject, “What would you like to taste?”

“One of each, please.” Qin Lang answered without hesitation, then he scanned the QR code to pay.

Autumn Blade Lemon, twenty-five yuan each.

Blue Spear, eighty-eight yuan each.

Ocean Emblem, two hundred yuan each.

“Please wait.”

With a gentle smile, Luo Xian bent his head and got busy.
