In the live broadcast room, when the audience saw the helpless expressions of the six guests, they immediately burst into laughter.
“I knew it. This show is not that simple.”
“The director is getting better at digging holes. He can even tell what the menu is from eating!”
“Terrifying. I can already visualize that the next episode of this program will be very exciting. These dishes are all very difficult to make, right?”
“There’s still time to prepare. The guests should be able to imitate most of them.”
“Haha, Fang Mo’er could tell something was up. It’s a pity that Bai Rong didn’t listen to her. This is great.”
..
In the restaurant’s office.
Mu Chen was checking on the company’s revenue.
Recently, Mu Chen had handed the entertainment company over to his subordinates to manage. He was helping the Mu family take care of a few businesses, one of which was this restaurant.
He had followed Mu Ye to this hotel.
Mu Ye had instructed him to come over to check on the situation and also check on the hygiene of the restaurant.
Mu Chen said to the manager, “Oh right, why is business so bad today? There aren’t many customers outside.”
The manager quickly said, “That’s because our restaurant participated in the filming of a TV program.”
Mu Chen was surprised. “Oh, what program…”
When he heard that Fang Mo’er and Bai Rong had participated in a program called ‘Seaside Restaurant’, Mu Chen’s expression changed.
So, Bai Rong and Fang Mo’er were in this restaurant right now?
At this moment, an assistant knocked on the door. “Manager, the guests of the program want to ask the chef of the kitchen for some basic steps…”
Usually, their signature dishes were made exclusively.
That was why the assistant had come over to ask for instructions.
The manager said, “Ask the chef not to reveal the key recipe. The basic steps are fine.”
“Yes.”
After the assistant had finished speaking, Mu Chen also pushed the door open and walked out.
Coincidentally, he saw the six program’s guests standing at the door of the office.
Bai Rong stood at the front. When she had first spotted Mu Chen coming out, she thought that she had seen wrongly. She was obviously shocked and even took two steps back.
It was as if she had seen a ghost.
Mu Chen frowned.
The assistant said, “This is the Second Master of our company.”
The other guests all nodded at Mu Chen.
Bai Rong reacted and quickly understood the current situation.
She had heard that Mu Chen had been helping Mu Ye manage his company recently.
She had not expected that this five-star hotel was also owned by the Mu family.
The Mu family was really big.
Thinking that she had better not make enemies with Mu Chen, Bai Rong deliberately softened her tone. “Mr. Mu Chen, long time no see.”
She greeted Mu Chen with a smile, as if their past feud had disappeared.
Besides, they were now in a live broadcast mode, so Bai Rong had to maintain her good character.
Mu Chen frowned. He had not expected that one day, he would also feel disgusted by Bai Rong’s smiling face. In the past, his favorite thing had been to see her smile.
But now…
Mu Chen only nodded at the crowd casually. His gaze fell on Fang Mo’er, but he quickly shifted his gaze away and prepared to leave.
However, he suddenly turned around to see Bai Rong pulling Fang Mo’er over. “Sister Fang, Mr. Mu Chen, although we have had some bad times in the past, all of that is in the past. I hope that we can be friends in the future.”
She wanted to show tolerance and magnanimity on the show.
She also wanted to take this opportunity to bury the hatchet with Mu Chen.
Fang Mo’er looked at Bai Rong’s hand and could not help but pull it back. Before Mu Chen could reply, Fang Mo’er took a step back. “Miss Bai, I’m not your friend. Don’t drag me along. I’ll never be friends with you in this life!”
Fang Mo’er frowned. She had only cooperated with Bai Rong on the show because it had been necessary for her to complete a mission.
However, that did not mean that she would let bygones be bygones.
Bai Rong was rendered speechless. She looked at Fang Mo’er innocently and then at Mu Chen.
Out of habit, she thought that Mu Chen would protect her.
She did not expect Mu Chen to reply with a cold expression on his face.
“Miss Bai, I won’t be your friend either.”
