BXBX NOVEL Chapter 214: Fish Roe
Traveler…
Hearing this familiar address, Qin Lang’s mouth twitched slightly.
No doubt, this must be one of his fans from D Site.
Looking at the girl who appeared to be a few years older than him, he couldn’t help but cough lightly, “Just call me Qin Lang.”
“OK, Traveler-” The girl responded with a bubbly giggle, her eyes glinting with a mischievous liveliness, “My name is Si Wenwen, I’ve been a fan of yours for ten years-”
A fan for ten years, not bad at all.
Qin Lang turned to Li Hong, who was looking a bit puzzled, and explained in a whisper, “1 occasionally upload some videos on D Site.”
Li Hong was enlightened.
He knew about D Site, but he never used these platforms.
“Well, you two chat then.” With a faint smile, he moved aside intentionally, trying not to disturb the conversation between Qin Lang and his fans.
Qin Lang nodded slightly and then turned his attention to Si Wenwen.
However, Si Wenwen’s attention had shifted from him to Dan Bao and Spicy.
“Wow!”
She exclaimed, quickly leaning in to get a closer look at the two little spirits, “These must be Dan Bao and Spicy, they are so cute!”
Si Wenwen turned to Qin Lang, seeking approval with a hint of anticipation, “Can I touch them?”
Qin Lang and the two small spirits shared a glance, then he nodded, “Sure.” “Awesome!” Si Wenwen quickly reached out her hand towards the two, feeling the soft touch of Dan Bao and the fluffy feel of Spicy, revealing a satisfied expression.
For some reason, seeing this, Qin Lang suddenly had a peculiar thought, “Would your Food Spirit get upset if it knew you were touching Dan Bao and Spicy?”
“You didn’t summon your Food Spirit?” He asked casually with a strange look on his face.
“All?” Si Wenwen let go of the two little spirits and scratched her head shyly, “I’m not yet a Spirit Chef, I’m just a cooking enthusiast.”
“I was traveling in Mingjing Province with my family, where the sea view is absolutely beautiful.” Seeing Qin Lang’s confusion, she took the initiative to explain.
“On the boat 1 met Zhou Ran.” Si Wenwen pointed to another girl standing on the other side who was chatting with some others, “She was going to the Jumping Fish Lake for a banquet called the Leaping Fish Banquet…”
At this point, her eyes lit up with realization, “You were also on the boat for the Leaping Fish Banquet, weren’t you?”
“Yes.” Qin Lang nodded.
Si Wenwen showed a ‘1 thought so!’ expression, then continued, “After meeting Zhou Ran, she told me about the Cooking Exchange Activity about seafood cooking on the boat.”
“Even though I’m not yet a Spirit Chef, I know how to cook fish.” Si Wenwen chuckled, “So, 1 decided to join and see if I could improve my cooking and summon my own Food Spirit.”
“I see.” Understanding her situation, Qin Lang said earnestly, “Keep going, 1 believe you can do it.”
“Thank you!”
Hearing encouragement from her favorite uploader, Si Wenwen was thrilled.
Since Mr. Li Hong on the other side had started chatting with other Spirit Chefs, Qin Lang didn’t feel the need to wrap up the conversation. While waiting for the event to officially start, he chatted casually with Si Wenwen.
Time flew by and the audience swelled to about a dozen people.
The exchange activity began promptly.
“Thank you all for attending this exchange activity!” A young man in a suit stepped onto the stage, surveyed the audience, gauged the headcount, and expressed his satisfaction with a smile, “I am Qiu Yidong, the organizer of this event.”
“This activity aims to provide a platform for Spirit Chefs interested in seafood cooking to exchange their experience and spark new culinary inspiration…”
Qiu Yidong quickly finished his rehearsed opening remarks and announced the commencement of the session.
“Let me go ahead and pave the way.” Another Spirit Chef went on the stage with a smile and took over the microphone.
Finally, the exchange has begun.
Qin Lang watched the man on stage with anticipation.
However, this anticipation quickly faded.
That’s because the guy didn’t share anything cooking-related, he didn’t even use any cooking utensils. He just talked about his experience cooking seafood dishes and some very basic stuff.
What’s more, some of the details sounded exaggerated.
Was this an exchange of cooking skills?
Qin Lang couldn’t help but look around at the other attendees, but found that they didn’t seem to mind, as if a cooking exchange was supposed to be like this. Soon, the first chef went off stage, replaced by another girl.
Listening to her talk, which was exactly like the first cook, Qin Lang furrowed his brows even deeper.
He quickly realized that this exchange activity was not what he had imagined.
He wondered what Mr. Li Hong thought about this sort of exchange activity.
Qin Lang couldn’t help but glance at the back of Mr. Li Hong who was sitting in the front row.
Being an outstanding cook, Mr. Li Hong was seated in the first row, which made it difficult for Qin Lang to read his expression from his seat.
Time ticked by, and Qin Lang patiently remained seated.
Although quite a number of Spirit Chefs took the stage afterwards, none of them said anything worthwhile, which completely disheartened Qin Lang from going on the stage for an exchange.
Soon, the exchange part of the event ended.
“It seems everyone has learned a lot today.” Qiu Yidong went back on stage with a jovial smile, “We, the Spirit Chefs, need these kinds of cooking exchanges to get the chance to improve together.”
“Applause-”
Amidst the sporadic clapping, an almost imperceptible smirk spread across Qiu Yidong’s face. “I have prepared a little gift for everyone attending today, hoping you will like it.”
With that, he waved his hand and some of the cruise ship’s attendants rolled in a closed kitchen cabinet car.
As the cabinet car opened, the exquisite dishes inside elicited gasps from the audience.
Qin Lang glanced over the food, which came in a variety of shapes.
The dishes all had one thing in common: they were all covered with a layer of a shiny black food ingredient that sparkled under the light, like black pearls piled on top of each other.
That is…
Qin Lang raised his eyebrows slightly.
“This is the Premium Platinum Sturgeon Caviar that, even in the first seafood producing Mingjing Province of the Samiya Region, is exclusively produced in Hanhai City.”
The volume in Qiu Yidong’s voice picked up a few notches, “Today, everyone here can taste its wonderful flavor!”
“What?! Premium Platinum Sturgeon Caviar?”
“I’ve heard of it, it’s the best quality caviar.”
“I’ve never tasted it before, I didn’t expect to get this lucky today!”
Catching the wave of surprise sweeping the venue, Qin Lang showed some interest.
From this perspective, it seems it wasn’t a wasted trip after all.
