Chapter 257 Taking the bait

When Lai Liang got up in the morning, he exercised for an hour as usual.

He asked his assistant to take a photo and post it on Weibo later.

By the way, add some text like [Basic qualities of a chef].

Presumably, he will be able to reap another wave of praise and sympathy from fans.

After the exercise, Lai Liang, sweating profusely, received a call from Principal Zhang, saying that Nanzhi wanted to cook for the children herself at noon, so Lai Liang didn't need to bother her today.

You know, cooking a big pot of rice for dozens of people every day at noon is something that makes Lai Liang very annoyed.

The Japanese restaurant he opened is a Michelin three-star restaurant with high-end service and is small but exquisite.

Things like big pot meals are simply not within his skill set.

Add to that ingredients like tuna and salmon, and if it were to be fed to dozens of people, the cost would probably be an outrageous number.

But Miss Chang Muchang told him not to lose to Nanzhi. Since Nanzhi wanted to cook the canteen meals, he had to follow suit.

Lai Liang had no choice but to agree, but he felt extremely annoyed.

I am annoyed by the southern branches, and I am even more annoyed by their constant longing.

In the end, the meals in the cafeteria at noon every day were just messed up.

Ask the assistant to prepare some rice balls or oden, saying that children like to eat these, and that's the way to fool the person.

Of course, all the ingredient packets were bought from outside, Lai Liang was too lazy to make them.

Even so, Lai Liang's patience was almost exhausted.

He was thinking about finding an opportunity to get rid of this thankless job.

Anyway, seeing those kids in school eating without any appetite every day...

As a result, Principal Zhang called him now.

Lai Liang's mind changed immediately!

He was very enthusiastic:

"How can you trouble Nanzhi with something like this? I'd better let me do it!"

Teacher Zhang gave some earnest advice.

Lai Liang's eyes rolled:
"How about this, I have an idea. Let Nanzhi and I compete today? Hahaha, just kidding. I don't want to compete with her. I'm a professional chef. How can I bully the weak? I mean, I want to prepare lunch for the children with her. It just so happens that the content of today's cooking class has been changed to 'The Clash of Two Countries'? What do you think?"

Lai Liang spoke slowly, with a sense of calm and confidence.

Teacher Zhang on the other end of the phone didn't seem to hear it. He agreed happily and then hung up the phone.

The assistant next to him looked at Lai Liang and his mood seemed to improve all of a sudden?

"What happened?"

"Someone who doesn't know her own limitations has come to my door. I'll teach her a lesson."

Lai Liang raised his eyebrows playfully.

The assistant quickly understood:
"Nanzhi?"

Lai Liang did not give a direct answer, but asked:
"Are the ingredients for the day after tomorrow ready?"

The day after tomorrow will be his last day in this broken mountain valley. According to the original agreement, it will be a big show. He will use all his best skills to leave the deepest impression on the audience and make it a classic scene in the show!
To this end, Chang Mu went to great lengths to transport the expensive ingredients he needed into the mountains, and also bought a large freezer to store them. It can be said that he spent a lot of money!
Now, Lai Liang decided to start this scene early!
The assistant could probably guess what Lai Liang was thinking, and answered honestly, "It arrived last night, and it's basically all there. But if we need it, shouldn't we ask Miss Chang for permission?"

The smile on Lai Liang's face froze.

He felt uncomfortable with the feeling of being controlled by others, but there was nothing he could do. As the assistant said, Chang Mu was the one who paid.

"I'll call her."

Lai Liang waved his hand, signaling his assistant to leave for the time being, and then he called Chang Mu and told her the whole story.

As expected, Chang Mu opposed it.

Lai Liang thought it was okay for Chang Mu to have an opinion, but her opinion actually came from her fear of Nanzhi?
Lai Liang's face suddenly fell:
"Ms. Chang! Being a chef is an industry that requires hard work and talent. For a female star who can't even act well, to switch to being a chef, or a top chef... this is by no means an easy task! Although I don't know how Nanzhi fooled everyone, or even if her cooking skills are real, her current level is far inferior to mine!"

He raised his voice and held his head high.

He especially emphasized the last sentence!
Chang Mu seemed a little shaken.

Lai Liang had no choice but to patiently persuade Chang Mu:
"Please think about it, Miss Chang. In front of the live camera, I served a feast of delicacies that looked like an art, while Nanzhi could only serve those greasy dishes from a big pot... From the perspective of viewing, who wins and who loses? The audience is a visual animal!"

Lai Liang's words really moved Chang Mu!
indeed!

Audiences are visual animals!
You can neither smell the fragrance nor taste the flavor through the screen, the visual impact will be above all else!
She had personally tasted the fancy set that Lai Liang played. The taste was not particularly outstanding, but the visual effect was definitely amazing!

Chang Mu was completely relaxed and nodded in agreement to Lai Liang's proposal, and said that Lai Liang could ask for whatever he needed, as long as he could completely suppress Nanzhi by noon today!
Lai Liang is full of confidence:

"Of course this is no problem!"

Not only did he want to suppress Nanzhi, he also wanted to let those who chose Nanzhi over him see how wrong and outrageous their original decision was!
-
The news quickly reached Nanzhi.

Qi Peier, who happened to be with Nanzhi, almost jumped up with excitement!
She clapped her hands with joy:
"Zhizhi, you are amazing! Lai Liang actually agreed!"

Nanzhi sat behind her desk, looking through the homework the children had handed in yesterday.

Because she was focusing on grading, she seemed a little careless:

"Oh, is it so?"

In Qi Peier's eyes, this attitude was real confidence.

Qi Pei'er was so impressed that she kept talking:

"I was worried before. What if Lai Liang refused or didn't accept the challenge? Wouldn't all our arrangements be in vain? I didn't expect him to agree so readily. I guess he has been wanting to defeat you in person for a long time! Hey, I really don't know why this bastard is so hostile to you!"

Nanzhi hummed indifferently again.

Qi Peier came over curiously:

"What are you looking at so seriously? Oh, is this Yi Yi's homework book? The English writing is so beautiful, better than mine!"

Nanzhi smiled and nodded:

“It’s been a big improvement, and it shows that they put a lot of effort into it.”

Nan Yi had never learned English before, but had some exposure to it in kindergarten before going into the mountains.

The real learning actually started after I arrived at the village primary school, where I was taught by Nanzhi himself.

As expected of a genius certified by the original work, Nan Yi's progress is rapid.

As for Lai Liang and the like, in Nanzhi's eyes, they are not even as good as a page of Nan Yi's homework book.
