By the time Qin Lang left Zhou Qing’s house and returned to his own, it was late at night.
“It’s already nine o’clock…”
After glancing at the wall clock, Qin Lang murmured a word and quickly got his two little companions washed up and ready for bed.
Having just returned to Dongxia City and then paid visits to Uncle Luo Hui and Mr. Zhou Qing, they were all somewhat exhausted.
Sitting on the bed, Qin Lang picked up his cellphone, notifying Zhao Chen and the others of his return to Dongxia City while engaging in conversation with his two little companions.
“There are still twenty days until the Leaping Fish Banquet begins.” Qin Lang paused slightly before continuing, “According to Mr. Zhou Qing, he and Mr. Li Hong will be embarking on a cruise to Jumping Fish Lake the morning after tomorrow. We’ll join them then.”
“Gurgle!”
Going on a cruise!
Upon hearing this, Dan Bao showed an anticipatory look.
He had witnessed the Xiayun River with Qin Lang, but he had never had the experience of cruising on it with a cruise ship before.
“Cheeka-cheeka?”
What’s it like on a ship?
Spicy, tilting his head to one side, was equally curious about this means of transportation that he had never tried before.
“Cruising is not as easy as you might think,” Qin Lang chuckled wryly. “If one’s physical constitution is slightly worse, one might even experience seasickness…”
He stopped abruptly in mid-sentence, looking at his two small companions.
Food Spirits can fly, so they wouldn’t feel the sway of the ship at all. How could they get seasick?
“Alright, never mind,” He shook his head and said, “The ‘Colorful’ cruise ship we are to board can carry hundreds of passengers at once. Apart from us, there will be other tourists heading to Jumping Fish Lake. I imagine it will be quite lively.”
Lively…
Hearing this, the anticipation of the two little companions deepened.
“As for the itinerary, there’s no need to worry too much with Mr. Zhou Qing and Mr. Li Hong there.” Qin Lang took a deep breath, “What we need to be concerned about is the Leaping Fish Banquet itself.”
“Gurgle!”
You can do it, Qin Lang!
Dan Bao, nodding his head, had great confidence in Qin Lang’s culinary skills.
“The stage that Mr. Zhou Qing said was prepared for Spirit Chefs under the age of twenty-five is somewhat akin to a cooking competition targeted at teenagers,” A hint of confidence emerged on Qin Lang’s face, “I can’t lose when faced with my peers.”
He was no more than twenty years old in his previous life, which meant that the opponents he would face at Jumping Fish Lake had the same amount of time learning to cook as he did.
Even if his opponents were genius Spirit Chefs from all over Mingjing Province and the surrounding areas, he had no reason to lose.
After all, he had the entire food system of Earth at his back.
He was determined to be the champion of the Leaping Fish Banquet.
“Ding dong—”
A message notification sound came.
It was Zhao Chen and the others responding after seeing his message.
Zhao Chen: “It’s perfect that you’re back, Qin Lang. My Food Spirit has broken through to two stars! Let’s have a battle, my arch-nemesis!”
Qi Xiaoyu: “Why wait for another day when we can do it now? 1 want to see Zhao Chen get crushed tomorrow!”
Du Weiwei: “Count me in.”
Zhao Chen has reached two stars?
A look of surprise crossed Qin Lang’s face.
This guy… is really serious about it.
Back in Bai Lu Mountain City, Qin Lang had noticed that although the adolescent was a bit nerdy, there was a strong determination in him. This was also the reason he could keep having Spirit Battles with his opponents for several days in a row.
Breaking through to two stars so quickly without obtaining a Starstone was no small feat.
It seemed that during his trip to Qingyang City, Zhao Chen had started torturing himself again.
He had planned to meet up with the three of them and catch up on things tomorrow since he was leaving Dongxia City the day after. After all, he didn’t know when he would see them again after tomorrow.
With that in mind, Qin Lang smiled.
Qin Lang: “@Zhao Chen, let’s pick a location.”
Soon, amid Zhao Chen’s grandiose pre-battle declaration and the two girls’ eager anticipation to watch the show, the four of them set a time to meet tomorrow afternoon.
After agreeing on the time, Qin Lang fell into thought.
His recent reunion with Zhou Qing made him realize that he was no longer a nobody in Dongxia City. He had established a certain network of contacts.
As such, he should be proactive in maintaining these relationships.
Ms. Song Hui and Mr. Fu Hang were also seniors who had taken good care of him along the way, and it would be best if he could say goodbye to them before he left.
The journey to Mr. Fu Hang’s Zhen Niu Pavilion was a bit far and would likely take too much time for a round trip. Moreover, he usually contacted him every time he returned to Dongxia City due to the beef stored there, so this time he just sent an email.
As for Ms. Song Hui…
It had been a while since he last visited Daisy Garden, perhaps he could go and see tomorrow morning?
He wondered if Su Zhi was still having disagreements with Ms. Song Hui.
After sending emails to the two First-Level Food Recommenders and receiving their positive responses, Qin Lang stretched, casually opened his D Site account.
Just as he entered the creator backend, he was bombarded with numerous messages, followers, and likes.
More than ten days had passed since the release of his second video “Big Meat Buns”, and all the comments, whether in private messages or on the video, were urging him to post an update.
“I’ll film a new video when I get some time in the next couple of days,” Looking at the overwhelming call for updates, Qin Lang decided to put the new video on the agenda.
“It’s time to sleep,” After checking through the important messages for the day after tomorrow, he put down his phone, held his two little companions, turned off the light and went to sleep.
Time passed quickly, and the next morning soon arrived.
With a carefully chosen mist sculpture in tow, Qin Lang and his two little companions arrived at Daisy Garden early after breakfast.
The morning Daisy Garden was somewhat damp, and even from outside the fence, Qin Lang could clearly see the beautiful, dew-kissed flowers.
After the doorbell rang, the petite figure of Su Zhi appeared before Qin Lang’s eyes.
“Brother Qin Lang, my mummy told me last night that you were coming.” Su Zhi, beaming with joy, led Qin Lang into the garden, clearly delighted with his arrival.
“Is Ms. Song Hui not here?” Qin Lang looked around but could not see Ms. Song Hui.
“Mummy is inside baking desserts, and she’ll be done soon,” Su Zhi said, swinging the watering can in her hand, “I’m helping mummy water the garden!”
It was then Qin Lang noticed that Su Zhi was dressed differently today.
She was no longer dressed in her princess-like skirt. Instead, she was dressed more comfortably in athletic attire.
Her shoes were stained with mud, and there were wet spots on her clothes from watering the garden. While she looked a bit dishevelled, her smile was genuine and from the heart.
It seemed that Ms. Song Hui was indeed changing how she interacted with her daughter.
Qin Lang breathed a sigh of relief and then asked with a smile, “May 1 help water the garden?”
“Yes, of course!” Su Zhi cheerfully nodded, quickly picking up another watering can and delivering it to Qin Lang’s hand, “Let me show you, Brother Qin Lang, the different flowers have different watering methods!”
“It took me a whole week to remember all of this!”
As she said this, Su Zhi proudly lifted her head.
