Chapter 426: The Dough

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Even though everyone had prepared a performance, it was still difficult to decide who would be the first to perform. No one wanted to be the first to show off.

Chu Yi gently tucked her hair and stood up. “If everyone doesn’t mind, I’ll go first. It might not be the best but I’ll give it a shot.”

Although they had some unpleasant exchanges with Chu Yi before, they were still on the show after all. Meng Lan clapped her hands in support, and He Ao also said a few words of anticipation.

“Then please come to the dining room. The talent I’ve prepared is cooking.” Chu Yi smiled gently and took out an apron from the cupboard at the side.

Cooking?

When Meng Lan heard this, she immediately glanced at Ruan Jing.

In the three days that they had spent together, Ruan Jing was the one who cooked the most and received the most praises. No matter how one looked at it, Chu Yi’s behavior today gave off the feeling that she wanted to cause troubles.

However, the talent show was already announced during the preparation stage. Now, it was either Chu Yi had changed it at the last minute, or she was not deliberately targeting Ruan Jing.

Ruan Jing was more inclined toward the latter. After all, she had no grudges against Chu Yi. However, she still looked a little upset. After all, she had just been mocked by Chu Yi for being late, When Chu Yi finished cooking her dishes, she was afraid that she would be criticized again.

“What? That’s it?” Sheng Chuan’s face was full of exaggeration and disbelief, and his tone was so exaggerated that it sounded funny.

He did not lower his volume, so Chu Yi heard him. She had her back to the camera, and her face was filled with resentment.

Chu Yi kneaded the dough in her hand fiercely, imagining it to be Sheng Chuan’s head and venting her anger on it.

“Then are we just going to sit here and wait? Or do we want to go in and watch her cook?” Sheng Chuan even added, as if he was afraid that Chu Yi would not die from anger.

“Ah… Chu Yi, how long do you need to do this?” Meng Lan felt that the atmosphere was about to become awkward again, so she quickly asked.

“It’ll take about an hour. You can go do other activities first. I’ll call you when I’m done.” When she said this, she seemed very understanding.

[Chu Yi e s really a good person. People in the industry often praise her. Don’t misunderstand her too much.]

[Don’t make it seem like she wasn’t the one who talked to Ruan Jing sarcastically 20 minutes ago. Is Chu Yi suffering from a personality disorder?]

[She just likes to act… sometimes the nice one, sometimes not. I’m not a fan of either party, but Chu Yi really looks like she’s in a very unstable mental state.]

[People speak and do things differently in different situations. Can you guarantee that you’ll be the same every day? Why do you have to make it sound so bad when it comes to Chu Yi? You even said that she’s mentally ill?

You’re too vicious!]

Bai Lin looked to be in a good mood. It was as if she was not angry or annoyed at all after the incident last night.

He Ao could not help but look admiring to seeing Bai Lin like this.

Bai Lin was always like this. It was as if everything in the outside world was just passing by her world in a hurry. Her heart would not be shaken too much.

This kind of transcendental freedom was attractive to him.

However, in the next second, he saw Yan Ruo and Bai Lin stand up one after another. The two of them looked so compatible when they stood together.

They were so compatible that he felt that he was not worthy.

He Ao said with a bitter smile, “Then I’ll stay and help Chu Yi.”

As soon as he said that, he instantly realized that something was wrong. He should not have said such tactless words. It was as if he and Chu Yi were in a clique. Not only did he seem distant from the others, but it also made Chu Yi seem unsociable.

He was a little annoyed. How could he say something like that?

“There’s no need to be like this. It’s only an hour. Let’s chat and play games. It’ll pass soon.” Meng Lan immediately stepped forward to smooth things over.

She did not want to see Chu Yi tearfully saying that she felt isolated by everyone, or timidly saying that there was some misunderstanding and asking for everyone to judge it.

Meng Lan was able to get promoted quickly in different industries because she was extremely smart and knew how to deal with interpersonal relationships. If her work abilities were the foundation for her promotions, then her interpersonal skills were the bearing wall that supported her upward..
