Chapter 39: The Dust Settles

The consequence of tossing and turning all night is to go downstairs with a pair of pandas on top of it the next day. Liu Yingai saw it, thinking that Gong Baorou was still obsessed with the result of the game, and asked a little worriedly: "Didn't Arou sleep well last night?" Let's go lie down after eating. ”

"No need." Gong Baorou shook her head with a smile, her eyes couldn't help but shift for a moment, but she happened to be facing Lin Shuping, and she hurriedly withdrew it in a panic.

Zhao Xiuxiu pulled out a chair for her daughter and sat down with her: "I stewed some Huaishan for you in the morning, drink more." Since there is no game today, then we will not go and rest at home. ”

Gong Baorou sighed: "The list of finalists will be announced in the evening, and I still have to go at night." ”

"What are you going to do!" Liu Yingai couldn't help but be angry, "What's so good to participate in such a game that people can't stand to watch and is shady everywhere!" ”

Gong Baorou smiled bitterly and did not answer.

Liu Yingai simply expressed her complaints and dissatisfaction, and saw that Gong Baorou did not answer and did not ask for anything. Even though it's summer vacation, the family is still busy. Liu Yingai and Lin Zhishen are busy going to work, Zhao Xiuxiu is also quietly looking for a satisfactory job, and even Lin Shu'an is busy going to cram school, starting in the morning until coming back in the afternoon, there is no difference from the usual classes, but the things they learn are different. And Lin Shuping had to go to the library by the way after sending his younger brother to cram school. If it was usual, Gong Baorou would also go to Haicheng Hotel to work, but because of the start of the tryouts, she was given three days off.

The empty room makes people feel lonely. At noon, she just drank a few sips of soup hastily, and Gong Baorou hugged the pillow and lay on the sofa on her back.

As if by juggling, her hand lifted slightly, and a red apple landed on the palm of her hand.

After a long period of exercise, she has almost no mental energy for such a small thing as manifestation. Gong Baorou didn't think about washing it, she wiped it casually and put it in her mouth.

Apples are characterized by their sweetness and crunchiness, so they don't feel like juice splashing when you bite into them. Gong Baorou nibbled on an apple, thinking about her future path.

Becoming a chef god is a dream she never changes, she knows it's not an easy road but she has never been afraid of any hardships. It's just that after hearing about the legendary kitchen god and experiencing all kinds of things that were disgusted by Master Li Haoying, she couldn't help but feel a little confused.

What does it mean to be a true chef? Like that guy? Although he is already famous abroad, there are very few people who know him at home, isn't this equivalent to being expelled by his mother? No, she didn't want to be like that. But why is she hated by Master Li Haoying? Is it because of her poor cooking skills? How can it be.

After all, she didn't sleep well last night, and Gong Baorou, who was lying on the sofa, felt a little sleepy when she thought about it. Before falling into a dream, Gong Baorou made a decision. There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and as long as she sticks to her biggest dream, nothing can stop her. And the top priority is to find a place to move out as soon as possible. She and Zhao Xiuxiu have a lot of money on hand, and a good house can't afford it, but it's enough to pay a down payment.

When I woke up, the afternoon sun was still very hot, insisting on exuding its last glory. Gong Baorou sat up and a thin blanket slipped off her body.

Looking at the time, Gong Baorou guessed in her heart that it should be Lin Shuping who came back.

"Drink some water." Lin Shuping's voice sobered up Gong Baorou, who was still a little confused, and it turned out that the other party was sitting on the small sofa not far from her. It's a matter of seconds.

"Hmm, thank you." After a few mouthfuls of water, Gong Baorou stood up and asked, "I'm going to pick up the list soon, can we go together?" ”

Lin Shuping did not hesitate and nodded: "Let's go together." ”

The two of them took the bus to the venue, Lin Shuping led her into the backstage, and Sun Fugui was already there. When he saw two people coming, he took three steps and made two steps, and his face remained unswerving.

"Arou, the results are out." Sun Fugui took a deep breath before suppressing the anger in his heart, "You are the ninteenth." ”

Gong Baorou nodded, this result was expected. Although Master Li Haoying gave her a sixty points, she still surpassed many people now. It's a pity, why isn't the rule of the game to remove the highest score and remove the lowest score? Maybe she and Xiao Wenye can still compete.

I was prepared early, so that Gong Baorou only regretted it for a moment in her heart, and she was not too angry.

Seeing this, Sun Fugui was relieved and even more annoyed.

Xiao Wenye won the first place. But ......" Sun Fugui sneered, "Master Li Haoying took a plane back to Beijing directly after you finished the competition yesterday, and Xiao Wenye is estimated to have been still in his mind." ”

This is also to be expected. Xiao Wenye has never heard of the name in the future, if he is really accepted as an apprentice by Master Li Haoying, even if he is shaded, he should be a little famous.

Thinking of that arrogant and vicious look, Gong Baorou gave birth to a sense of schadenfreude.

Well, you guys are so blind.

"Xiao Wenye has announced his withdrawal from this rookie selection competition." Sun Fugui's voice was full of sarcasm, "I guess I feel like I've lost face." ”

Gong Baorou paused, looked up at Sun Fugui and said, "Master, I also want to quit." ”

Sun Fugui frowned and asked, "Why?" "He is not a very strong person, and he prefers to ask for the wishes of his apprentices in many cases.

"It wasn't a whim of mine." Gong Baorou patiently explained, feeling that the hand she was holding tightened, and cast a reassuring look at Lin Shuping, "For many people, including me, it's just a farce, and I don't have the heart to continue to participate." Moreover, without Xiao Wenye, do you think anyone else in this competition can beat me? This sentence is very proud, but it is also a fact, "If I enter the finals and get the ranking, many people will think that I got this ranking because of Xiao Wenye's withdrawal, and I am a head shorter than him for no reason, maybe Haicheng Hotel will think that our Haicheng Hotel is also a head shorter than them." ”

Sun Retro was stunned for a moment and fell into thought.

"Moreover, I have already been given such a low score by Master Li Haoying in this semi-final, if I get a high score in the final, what will others think? Did Master Li Haoying deliberately give a low score? Or did the judges of the finals accept our favors? ”

Sun Fugui was moved: "But you may be ...... during this period of time"

"But it's only for a while." Gong Baorou smiled, full of confidence, so that Sun Fugui was completely relieved that the Gong Baorou before the game was back. "I'm still young, and a year or two is nothing."

Sun Fugui nodded and agreed with Gong Baorou's statement: "Then I will withdraw from the competition for you." This year's tryouts are really a big farce! ”

Hurried back and forth, Sun Fugui left towards the judges. Lin Shuping suddenly asked, "Do you regret it?" ”

"Regrets?" Gong Baorou smiled helplessly, "It's false to say that you don't regret it, but, as I said, I'm still young, and there will be many opportunities in the future, so if you take such a small game to heart, won't you be tired to death in the future." "If there was no Master Li Haoying, this would indeed be a small competition.

Lin Shuping his head and didn't say much, but just held her hand and refused to let go. Gong Baorou took his hand back, thinking to herself.

No matter what happens in the future, as long as everyone is by my side, I will never despair.
