The genius villain's mother is going crazy in the kid's variety show by relying on food

Chapter 56 Only Passion
"Don't you want to be a professional chef in the future?"

Nanzhi was quite surprised by what Fu Chao blurted out.

...He actually figured it out?

Nanzhi raised her eyebrows slightly:

"Why do you think so?"

"I have eyes. Where people's attention is, there is love. Compared to recording the variety show, you are obviously more interested in setting up the stall itself, aren't you?"

After hearing these words, Nanzhi couldn't help but change her opinion of Fu Chao.

She always felt that Fu Chao was a silly and somewhat naive person, completely different from the glorious and glamorous movie star Fu Chao in the public's impression.

Now it seems...

He is only silly on the surface, but he is smart at heart.

Yes, acting requires brains.

How could Fu Chao, who has won the Best Actor award and various acting awards and is recognized by the audience as a talented actor, be a fool?

Nanzhi was too lazy to lie. Since there was no one else here, he simply nodded:
"you guessed right."

Fu Chao was very proud:

"I knew it! Haha!"

Nan Yi and Qing Xi, who had fallen asleep in the dining car due to exhaustion, opened their eyes drowsily.

Qing Xi simply poked his head out and asked vaguely:
"Reached?"

Fu Chao was a little embarrassed:

"No, go to sleep, go to sleep."

Nanzhi: She chose to take back what she said just now!

I don’t know if it’s because we talked about personal topics such as the future.

Nanzhi's mind moved, and he asked Fu Chao:
“As an actor, do you enjoy acting?”

"Of course!"

Fu Chao answered without hesitation.

"In fact, my family didn't quite agree with me becoming an actor, but later on, seeing that I really liked it, they let me go. Even I didn't expect that I would stick with it for 10 years. Now when I look back on my decision, I don't regret it for a single second."

Fu Chao's tone was firm and full of conviction.

Find a career you love and work hard for it...

What a lucky thing this is!

And what about Nanzhi?

She was forced to become a chef, and the 12 years in the other world passed in the blink of an eye.

If she looks back on her original intention, has she ever regretted it?

In fact...the answer is already apparent.

"It seems that I also like being a chef."

Nanzhi smiled and suddenly felt his mind open and the world as vast as before.

Fu Chao heard this and unconsciously raised his voice:

"Of course! If you don't like it, how can your cooking be so delicious! You can't do it without passion!"

His voice echoed through the alleys of the shantytown.

Nan Yiqingxi in the dining car was woken up again.

Nan Yi didn't say anything, but pursed her lips as usual, looking at Fu Chao quietly and silently with her icy little face, feeling full of oppression.

Qing Xi directly poked Fu Chao's heart:
"Uncle, you're so noisy."

puff.

Fu Chao was heartbroken after being rejected, but he still apologized honestly:
"Sorry, go to sleep, go to sleep quickly."
-
The next day, Fu Chao specifically mentioned the documentary filming to Xu Lin.

Xu Lin was curious:

"Which documentary team? Do we know each other?"

Fu Chao remembered that his second sister-in-law Zhou Ling had said to keep it a secret, so he deliberately spoke vaguely:
"Not really. They are in the preparation stage now, and they are not sure whether Nanzhi's material will be broadcast."

Xu Lin knew Zhong Yu, the director of “A Bite of China”, but Director Zhong definitely didn’t know Xu Lin.

One-sided acquaintance does not count as acquaintance...

This isn't even lying!
Xu Lin listened and felt that it was a dead end. It wasn't that he had high standards.

But ever since the food documentary "A Bite of China" became a huge hit, there have been at least eight, if not ten, similar documentaries released every year.

Many of them are produced by small teams and imitate the unique style of "A Bite of China". The popularity and return rate are okay, but the quality of the finished product is always a little bit lacking.

So Xu Lin didn't take it seriously at all and joked cheerfully:

"Okay, let me know when the documentary starts airing, and I'll gather everyone in our team to help boost the number of views!"

"Probably not."

"Huh? What?"

"No, you heard wrong."
-
After the director cleared the way for them, filming became much easier for Zhou Ling and the others.

Xu Lin thought that Zhou Ling was Fu Chao's relative, so he simply gave her face and asked the photographer and the fixed camera to stay away from the documentary team as much as possible, so that the two sides would not interfere with each other.

I didn’t expect that Zhou Ling and the others would capture the day when the Nanzhi fried rice stall closed down.

This time came one day earlier than expected.

Because we need to set aside a day to take stock of the current period, decide the champion of this period, and, most importantly, where the charitable funds will go.

For this reason, Nanzhi hung up a sign saying "Closed tomorrow" one day in advance.

Despite Nanzhi’s “preview” two days ago, many diners still couldn’t believe it.

"Boss! Boss, please don't leave! How can I live without your fried rice?"

"Boss, if you think it's inconvenient to set up a stall, why don't we crowdfund to help you open a store? We can also open a restaurant!"

"Okay, okay! This is great! I'll give you 10!"

"I'll pay 20!"

"You must not quit the restaurant industry! This is a major blow to the entire industry!"

"Yes! It may not be the same in the entertainment industry!"

"But shut up!"

"..."

The originally sad atmosphere was diluted and became somewhat funny.

But this cannot erase the diners' heartbreak.

Both the variety show and the documentary captured the scene of several diners crying while eating fried rice.

Both humorous and touching.

Nanzhi was even more at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and kept saying a few words to comfort her.

"So, boss, have you changed your mind?"

"This is not."

Nanzhi had no choice but to watch the diners turn away sadly.

However, she was not really indifferent.

After all, she started a fried rice stall on the first day she returned from the other world.

From being ignored to having a booming business, her sense of belonging to her original world returned.

The compliments from diners made her realize that she truly enjoyed cooking and watching others enjoy delicious food.

The stiff and cold mother-son relationship between her and Nan Yi also gradually broke the ice, warmed up, and turned into gurgling spring water in the bustling atmosphere of the fried rice stall.

For her, this small fried rice stall is a turning point in her life and a new beginning.

and so……

Nanzhi instructed Fu Chao to move out the processed ingredients.

Judging from the portion, it’s three times the usual amount!
"Open until 12 o'clock tonight, no purchase limit!"

There was cheering all around!
More and more diners came after hearing the news!
That night, the night market was extremely crowded.

It seems like this is some popular spot during the Golden Week!
Merchants in the entire night market benefit from this. While diners are holding a bowl of fried rice, they will also buy some other snacks such as fried skewers and grilled sausages.

Later, even the merchants were infected by the atmosphere and generously contributed tables and chairs so that diners could sit wherever they wanted.

Looking around, everyone had a smile on their face.

The warmth and aroma of delicious food have become an invisible link, bringing people closer together.
