Except for Qin Wanyan, none of the other guests were aware of the online public opinion.
Li Jianyu and the others did see it and were getting a headache as they figured out how to deal with it.
“Why does it seem like the Spring Flower Fund is scamming Xiang Yi…” Li Jianyu criticized.
Normally, it would take official Weibo accounts some time to react when they encounter such things.
Yet, Spring Flower Fund actually released a statement to clarify the matter immediately after Qin Wanyan asked about it in the live stream.
The timing was too peculiar.
Ruan Qing said, “Go ahead with the normal livestream first. The public relations department of Tomato Entertainment should be handling it. Let’s wait and see. If there’s a need to, we will let Xiang Yi address it in the live stream so that it would be more effective.”
Watching her arrange everything neatly and methodically, Li Jianyu scratched his head and said, “… I suddenly feel that I’m worrying for nothing.”
Well, indeed, Xiang Yi was now the president of Tomato Entertainment.
The president of Xing Chen Entertainment was her uncle, and the co-founder Lin Chen Law Firm was her eldest brother. Their power of these two people alone is enough to overturn the entertainment industry.
Not to mention that she also has her second brother, third brother, fourth brother, and grandparents…
…
Three dishes and one soup were served to the table.
Xiang Yi had been feeling a strong urge to fry dishes and cook with her uninjured hand but Shi Sui stopped her.
“All of you try it. If you don’t like it, don’t force yourselves. We can still order takeout,” Shi Sui said with a gentle and elegant smile.
Although the people had different thoughts, they still had to eat. Hence, they started moving their chopsticks one after another. The first dish they tasted was naturally the main dish of pickled fish.
The fish used was a large and fleshy carp caught by Tian Zhi.
Shi Sui cut the fish diagonally into slices while Xiang Yi added the seasoning and egg white before mixing them well, so as to ensure that each slice of fish was evenly coated with egg paste, which is the secret to make the fish fresh and tender.
She then sautéed pickled pepper, peppers, peppercorn, garlic cloves, etc. in hot oil before adding the pickled cabbage and fish slices to the pot for stir-frying. Next, she slowly added the separated fish meat and fish bones to a casserole and simmered it.
The final product was a creamy and fragrant fish soup with fresh and tender fish meat. The pickled cabbage was shiny and the chili pepper was bright red in color. Both the fragrance and visuals were very impactful.
Tian Zhi tasted a chopstick, and then praised, “Oh, Shi Sui your culinary skills are really excellent! Any girl who marries you will be really lucky!”
Shi Sui smiled.
However Tian Zhi had a change in his tone of voice and he said, “But it’s a new era now where the sexes are equal. I’m a live-in husband myself and my wife and I have been in a loving marriage for years! I don’t mind sponging off her! I’ll do it openly, there’s nothing to be ashamed of!”
The netizens were dumbfounded.
The people stopped slamming Xiang Yi for making fake donations because their attention had been captured by something else.
—— [Live-in husband? If Shi Sui becomes Xiang Yi’s live-in husband… That doesn’t sound like a bad idea!]
—— [Isn’t Xiang Yi hiding her lover in her manor now~ Shi Sui is Xiang Yi’s beloved little lover!]
—— [Once you accept the setting that Shi Sui is a dainty little lover… gosh I want to write the same person!]
—— [Sister in front, take the keyboard, quick!]
…
Under the focus of the crowd, Shi Sui smiled and said, “Thank you for the guidance, Seniors, I will consider it.”
Xiang Yi began coughing after hearing their words. She wanted to spit out her food but the rubbish bin was too far away.
The next second, the man’s fair white and slender hands appeared in front of her eyes.
Shi Sui tilted his head slightly. He had already removed his gold-framed glasses at some point, and his peach-blossom-shaped eyes seemed to contain some deep devotion. It was extremely attractive.
His voice was low and alluring, void of any reluctance.
“Spit on my hand.”
