Chapter 36: Worry

There was once an old man who told SΓΉ Gong Baorou that the most painful thing in life is not that he never got it, but that he thought he could get it, but in the end he didn't get it. Now, Gong Baorou realized this sentence with an extremely painful feeling.

If all the judges think that she is inferior to Xiao Wenye, she has nothing to say, and she thinks that her skills are not as good as others. However, obviously everyone thinks it is good, why does Master Li Haoying give such a low score? It was like a stab in her heart. The most important thing is that Master Li Haoying is the person she admires the most, and his knife almost split her heart. Obviously, he had such a high opinion of her before, why did such a thing happen at the last moment?

"I, I can see why you gave me such a ...... Low score? Gong Baorou tried her best to hold back her tears and asked weakly.

"I don't want to explain." Li Haoying stood up, whispered a few words to the person who came up next to him, and turned around to leave.

"No!" Gong Baorou let out a rapid and sharp scream, her chest rose and fell rapidly, and her voice was filled with a cry, "I need an explanation from you!" ”

If it weren't for the praise she received from Master Li Haoying at the beginning, if she hadn't had too much confidence in herself, and if her feelings for Master Li Haoying weren't so sincere and profound, at this moment, Gong Baorou would never have been so gaffe that she almost collapsed. It was as if a drowning person had suddenly been pulled out of the driftwood in his arms, and the lost ship had lost the guidance of the lighthouse, and for a moment, Gong Baorou regretted that her family had never participated in this competition, and regretted why she had to do it all over again.

Li Haoying had already left the scene under the protection of several people, and he finally glanced back at Gong Baorou, he saw the begging and pain in Gong Baorou's eyes, and Gong Baorou also saw the calm and complexity in his eyes.

"How so, how so!" Gong Baorou covered her face with her hands and roared in her heart.

What happened was so confusing, Sun Fugui quickly ran a few steps to protect his apprentice, and pulled Gong Baorou, who was standing still, to the backstage. The presiding officer hurried out to preside over the order.

"Something happened that made the contestants sad, indeed, this score surprised many of us, well, the forty-third chef has prepared his own dishes, let's taste this chef's elaborate work first, a qiΔ“ puzzle, we will announce it at the end."

Reluctantly quieted the noisy chefs, the scene seemed to be going on normally, and no one knew the truth, not even Gong Baorou herself.

And in the background, there was silence. Master Li Haoying has long since left. The chefs were also playing in front, only a few staff members were chatting, and when they saw Gong Baorou and Sun Fugui coming over, they quickly got up. Sun Fugui motioned for them to sit, went and poured a cup of tea himself, and stuffed it into Gong Baorou's hand. The tea was warm, but it couldn't warm her heart.

Sun Fugui gently stroked Gong Baorou's hair, not knowing how to comfort her. Superficial words can't soothe the wounded heart at all, Sun Fugui knows Gong Baorou's admiration for Master Li Haoying, and even more so that she is crying now.

"Arou, it's not your fault this time." Sun Fugui smiled reluctantly and said, "I think the sweet and sour tenderloin you made is the most delicious in the world." ”

Gong Baorou said sullenly: "But, why is my score so low. ”

Sun Fugui didn't know how to explain it, or he also felt that this score was very problematic.

"Where in life can there be so many explanations for you, maybe your dish is not in line with Master Li Haoying's taste, or maybe Master Li Haoying is suddenly in a bad mood, so he gave you such a low score." Sun Fugui said as he spoke, but his nose was sour, and he muttered, "Life has never been explained to you......"

Gong Baorou raised her head, very stubborn: "I just want an explanation from Master Li Haoying." ”

Sun Fugui had no choice but to take her, he smiled bitterly and sat down: "You, just like me." Sue you, don't be miserable because of such a thing, there is no need for this, I used to have the same experience as you, but at this time now, I look back on everything and look down on everything. ”

Gong Baorou took a sip of tea and said nothing.

Maybe it was Gong Baorou's experience that opened the box of Sun Fugui's memory, maybe it was because she was old and began to like to recall the past, or maybe she just wanted to comfort her, Sun Fugui drank a big sip of water, and suddenly wanted to talk about his past.

"My original dream was to become a chef, but I didn't have the talent, and somehow I became a foodie. In the beginning, foodie was just a nice name, and my job was to taste the food. I haven't learned this systematically, but I have a good tongue. There was no sense of complacency in Sun Fugui's tone. Gong Baorou's heart moved, she had heard that the reason why Sun Fugui was able to be a high-status food consultant at Haicheng Hotel was because of his unique taste buds.

"I can taste a lot of flavors that ordinary people can't taste, and I'm sensitive to the subtleties of taste, but that's not enough." Sun Fugui's tone was melancholy, "I was very excited at first, thinking that I could get a good job in a restaurant, but in fact, I was constantly rejected. ”

"Why? Don't you have a talent for being a foodie? Gong Baorou asked in a low voice.

"So what? They rejected me, either because they thought that I was unreliable because I didn't have a systematic study based on my feelings, or because they thought that I didn't have that certificate and diploma and was incompetent, or they simply didn't want to hire me, let alone give an explanation, and it was okay if they didn't kick me out. Arou, a lot of people have a special or strange attitude towards you, and sometimes they don't need a reason. ”

Gong Baorou actually didn't understand it, she was still haunted by the sixty points given by Master Li Haoying, but her master was already comforting herself so sincerely, and even did not hesitate to expose her black history, Gong Baorou felt that at least her heart was much more peaceful.

"Let's go, I heard that your family is here today, too? Presumably they are also worried about you now, you can call them and tell them how they came to the backstage, and you can wait for the results together. Sun Fugui patted Gong Baorou's hand.

"The result?" Gong Baorou smiled bitterly and said, "I don't want this result anymore." ”

"Your results have surpassed many people, I can sue you, your average score is eighty-three, which is already in the forefront, you know, the overall average score of this class is about seventy-five." Sun Fugui said with certainty.

Gong Baorou shook her head, she didn't want such a result.

When she opened the phone book, she suddenly remembered that today it can be said that the whole family has been dispatched, and there are a total of five people in the stands, and these five people are all worried about her, how can she explain her crying and gaffe to make them feel at ease?

Thinking of this, Gong Baorou couldn't hide the astringency in her heart. Obviously, they wanted to reassure their hearts, but the result was very different, and they must have been even more worried.
