Chapter 866: Chapter 866: My Cooking Really Isn’t Presentable

When Shi Yaoguang was preparing the chestnut braised chicken, Quan Feifei just glanced impatiently.

In her opinion, there was no way Shi Yaoguang could achieve anything, so she didn’t pay much attention.

It wasn’t until Shi Yaoguang brought the chestnut braised chicken to the table and the faint aroma of the chicken mixed with chestnuts wafted out from the edges of the pot lid that Quan Feifei’s expression finally changed.

She looked at Shi Yaoguang as if facing a formidable enemy, with an expression of disbelief.

"You, how could you..."

Shi Yaoguang deliberately pretended not to understand what she meant and asked curiously, "How could I what?"

As she said this, she blinked her eyes, "Does Miss Quan have any questions?"

Quan Feifei gritted her teeth, "Didn’t you say you couldn’t cook?"

Shi Yaoguang maintained a serious expression, "Yes, that’s right."

She openly declared, "Compared to a real chef, I’m still quite inferior."

"Honestly, my cooking skills are not worth showing off..." Shi Yaoguang said humbly, then pretended to ask curiously, "Is Miss Quan’s braised fish ready? I wonder if I have the honor to taste Miss Quan’s cooking."

Quan Feifei looked at Shi Yaoguang’s serious expression and felt that Shi Yaoguang was deliberately mocking her.

If only she knew the live broadcast comments, she would surely confirm that her suspicion was correct.

The time rewinds to when the guests were preparing their ingredients.

Besides "The Convenient Group" pair, the other groups were carefully preparing the ingredients needed for dinner.

Although each group only had to prepare two dishes, for those who don’t usually cook, it was quite troublesome.

Therefore, everyone started preparing in advance.

The whole process of preparing the ingredients was also broadcast live.

From slaughtering the chicken to handling the chicken meat, to caramelizing the sugar and adding the spices, every step by Shi Yaoguang seemed smooth and efficient.

Even through the screen, it would make anyone’s mouth water.

After putting the chestnut braised chicken to simmer on low heat, she didn’t idle, processing three fish she had caught earlier, and washing the mushrooms she had picked, threading them on bamboo skewers, and grilling them over the charcoal fire.

During this process, Quan Jinbei and Qiao Yiyi both came to help.

Once the fish was grilled, Shi Yaoguang gave two out of her three fish to them.

The other guests joked about Qiao Yiyi’s good luck.

No one knew what seasoning Shi Yaoguang used for her barbecue, but the flavor of the grilled fish and mushrooms was incredibly dominant, fragrantly spreading a long way.

Initially, those who sympathized with Qiao Yiyi and Quan Jinbei for being entangled in a love triangle immediately felt like they themselves were the real clowns.

So what if they were involved in a love triangle?

Who dares to say their luck is better than Qiao Yiyi’s?

Every couple was doing well, but compared to Qiao Yiyi, it wasn’t much.

Qiao Yiyi could be said to be winning effortlessly.

Participating in the program at Love Cabin, without being tied down after the show.

Tagging along with Quan Jinbei, not only did he manage to get Shi Yaoguang’s screen time, but also established a good relationship with them.

After the show, other guests might get tied down by CP fans, but for someone of Qiao Yiyi’s status, it was best if such things didn’t happen.

Now, he benefited without any future worries.

Just imagining it could make one envious to death.

How could Qiao Yiyi be so lucky?

Qiao Yiyi didn’t deliberately flaunt, holding a skewer of grilled fish, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The aroma of the grilled fish filled his nose, making him show a look of ecstasy.

The other guests clenched their fists at the sight.

They had reason to suspect that Qiao Yiyi did this on purpose!

Shi Yaoguang only had three fish, and with her portioned out, it was great if other guests got her grilled mushrooms and the wild mushroom soup she prepared.

Although they got some grilled mushrooms, they still craved more.

The smell of the grilled fish was so enticing, why wasn’t any of it theirs!

Smelling the delicious grilled fish, even the well-prepared dinner they had worked on all afternoon no longer excited them as much.

Quan Feifei brought her braised fish to the courtyard, only to see Qiao Yiyi savoring the aroma of the grilled fish with a blissful expression.

Her face turned a bit unsightly.

Also fish, Qiao Yiyi showed such an indulgent expression towards Shi Yaoguang’s grilled fish, where did it leave her?

Did her braised fish not deserve any attention?

Why?

Quan Feifei’s feelings were clearly written on her face.

Qiao Yiyi naturally noticed, but he had no intention of responding to her.

He wasn’t a fool; he could clearly see that Quan Feifei’s attitude was off.

Knowing that Quan Feifei had issues, he naturally avoided approaching her.

Quan Feifei initially thought that Qiao Yiyi would start a conversation, and then she could raise her doubts smoothly.

However, Qiao Yiyi directly ignored her.

Quan Feifei felt a burning sensation on her face, as if everyone was laughing at her.

In reality, everyone was attracted to Shi Yaoguang’s grilled fish and mushrooms, without a care for her.

But Quan Feifei didn’t know that.

She only felt extremely embarrassed.

Looking at Qiao Yiyi, there was evident displeasure in her eyes.

"What kind of look is that, Quan Feifei?"

"Xiaoqiao, run! There’s a wicked woman eyeing you!"

"Xiaoqiao is so pitiful. She did nothing wrong, yet has to endure such looks..."

"Was there some friction between Quan Feifei and Qiao Yiyi? What’s with Quan Feifei’s gaze?"

More and more doubt arose.

Quan Feifei knew nothing about it. She glared at Qiao Yiyi, but Qiao Yiyi still didn’t approach her to save her face, so she unwillingly initiated the conversation.

"I just went to get the fish, and you all started chatting?"

Quan Feifei said, placing her braised fish next to Shi Yaoguang’s chestnut chicken with a very deliberate look.

Then, with a curious expression, "Is this grilled fish from Mrs. Quan? How does it taste?"

She scanned the guests’ faces, "Everyone has tasted it, right? How is it?"

The guests remained silent.

They couldn’t understand Quan Feifei’s reasoning.

Not to mention, the program didn’t mandate sharing of each other’s food.

Even if it did, Shi Yaoguang’s intention would have been to share her chestnut chicken—grilled fish and mushrooms were extra, and not part of the obligatory share.

If Quan Feifei wanted to create issues, she should at least have a valid reason.

This baseless accusation, it’s surprising she dared to make it.

Unbeknownst to her, she looked rather foolish in everyone’s eyes at that moment.

Her mind was set on embarrassing Shi Yaoguang in retaliation.

She couldn’t believe that after the unfair treatment Shi Yaoguang showed, everyone would still form bonds with her.
