“Congratulations, your Advanced Cooking Skill proficiency has increased by 2. Current proficiency: Advanced Cooking Skill 498/10000.”
As the last notification from his cheat system flashed before his eyes, Wang Hao knew that it was finally time to eat.
Looking at the six dishes on the table, which were not difficult to make but were perfect in color, aroma, and taste, Wang Hao nodded with satisfaction.
He was so hungry that his stomach was rumbling, and his mouth watered, but this was for guests, so it would be against etiquette for him to eat first.
Each of these dishes had given him a two-point increase in proficiency, which perfectly met Wang Hao’s expectations.
“Xiao Lan, come in and bring…” Wang Hao opened the kitchen door and called out to the living room, but before he could finish his sentence, the two people who had been eagerly waiting in the living room had already walked over impatiently.
They were Wang Lan and Cheng Yufei, who had smelled the aroma. When the kitchen door opened, they quickly got up and walked towards the kitchen.
This made Wang Hao feel a bit speechless, thinking that his recent shout seemed to be unnecessary.
“Wow, it smells so good, my mouth is watering!” Wang Lan exclaimed excitedly, but her hands didn't stop moving. She picked up two plates of food and turned to walk towards the living room.
“Indeed, indeed, I really envy Xiao Lan, being able to often taste such delicious dishes!” Cheng Yufei’s face was filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment. She also quickly followed, helping to bring the remaining dishes to the living room.
Once the dishes were neatly arranged, the three sat down in turn, their eyes not looking at each other, but tightly fixed on the six dishes on the table that exuded an inviting aroma.
Logically speaking, as a food blogger, Cheng Yufei had tasted countless delicacies, far more good food than ordinary people.
But when she looked at these simple and unpretentious dishes in front of her, she felt a deep affection from the bottom of her heart.
These six dishes, whether in terms of color coordination or the enticing aroma they emitted, were flawless.
More importantly, they were actually able to arouse an instinctive craving for food in Cheng Yufei. In her eyes, this was truly rare and valuable.
After all, why are there so many anorexic patients in Hospitals in real life?
The reason is not that the food is not delicious or that the patients are not hungry, but because these people have lost their desire and interest in food, and eating has become as tasteless as chewing wax.
They even feel like vomiting after eating, ultimately leading to increasingly severe anorexia, and can only rely on intravenous drips to maintain their vital signs.
However, the dishes cooked by Wang Hao could actually awaken this primal desire for food in people, which was simply miraculous!
“Let’s eat!” Wang Lan couldn’t hold back any longer and said eagerly.
With Wang Lan’s command, a silent war was about to begin.
However, at this moment, Cheng Yufei suddenly shouted, “Wait, let me take a picture first!”
Wang Hao and Wang Lan exchanged glances, muttering to themselves, “This woman is really troublesome…” However, since they were hosting guests, and the other party was a girl, it was understandable to make such a small request.
So, the two patiently waited for Cheng Yufei to complete her so-called “pre-meal ritual.”
Cheng Yufei raised her phone and started taking a flurry of photos of the delicious food on the table. From different angles, different lighting, and even not letting go of the details.
While recording, Cheng Yufei also muttered to herself, introducing the characteristics of each dish and her intuitive feelings.
Her demeanor truly lived up to her profession.
Seeing this, Wang Lan also felt that she should show some respect for these dishes, so she picked up her phone and started taking pictures as well.
And Wang Hao, on the side, could only shake his head helplessly, sighing in his heart, “Sure enough, every profession has its occupational hazards!”
Time passed minute by minute. After a full five minutes, Cheng Yufei finally put down her phone with satisfaction.
She looked at the beautiful photos she had taken and the sufficient video material, showing a satisfied smile.
“Alright, can we finally eat now?” Wang Lan was already starving and asked impatiently.
“Mm, let’s eat!” Cheng Yufei nodded in response.
With this “Let’s eat,” the three picked up their chopsticks and began a fierce eating battle.
Most people, when they were young, must have had this experience:
Do not talk while eating—this is a teaching passed down by our ancestors!
Of course, many people have probably never truly followed this rule.
However, at this very moment, Wang Hao and the other two were truly adhering to the teachings of their ancestors, genuinely achieving “eating without speaking.”
The entire dining process, though not completely silent, had no other sounds besides the occasional chewing.
For Wang Hao and Wang Lan, this was somewhat normal, as they had been eating so quietly every meal these past few days.
But Cheng Yufei was different. As a well-known food blogger, talking while eating had long become her professional habit.
However, in front of this meal, she actually broke her habit, only focusing on eating diligently, completely oblivious to other matters.
Normally, when visiting someone’s home, even if the relationship with the host is very close, one should still be slightly reserved and not be too unrestrained or ostentatious.
However, Ms. Cheng Yufei, whom they had only recently met, acted as if she were in her own home, at ease and casual.
The speed at which she ate, like a whirlwind, and the frequency with which she picked up food, were simply beyond the reach of Wang Hao and his sister.
When Wang Hao and his sister were already full and comfortably leaning back in their chairs, Cheng Yufei still showed no intention of stopping her chopsticks.
This gave the siblings a true understanding of the nickname “Dawei Feifei.”
So, they quietly watched Cheng Yufei’s live eating performance. Cheng Yufei did not stop eating because of their gaze, still leisurely enjoying the delicious food.
Finally, the six dishes on the table were completely cleared, truly achieving “Clean Plate Campaign.”
Wang Hao couldn’t help but marvel: How could her petite body hold so much food?
It must be said that Wang Hao had gone to great lengths to ensure this female streamer ate well! He had made every dish in the largest possible portion.
However, even so, all the food was eaten without a single bit left, which truly amazed Wang Hao.
Cheng Yufei patted her stomach contentedly and praised, “This meal was truly comfortable. I haven’t tasted such delicious food in a long time.
Before, it was only with family…” At this point, she suddenly seemed to realize something, stopping mid-sentence. Then, she awkwardly licked her lips, as if trying to conceal her earlier slip.
