Gourmet: Twins' Father and Chef of the Kindergarten
Chapter 380 - 350: Flies Chasing Traffic
"Screech—"
"Screech—"
"..."
Just past eleven-thirty in the afternoon, a series of sharp screeches echoed in succession but were surprisingly orderly, as one car after another parked in the spots near the entrance of Dorami Kindergarten.
This sudden and spectacular scene immediately drew the curious eyes of many passersby.
"Eh? Why are there suddenly so many cars parked in front of Dorami Kindergarten? Are they planning something big?"
"Look at that one, isn’t it an S-class car?"
"Wow, that’s a Cayenne over there!"
"The one next to it is a Porsche 911!"
"My goodness, it’s like we’ve accidentally walked into a luxury car show!"
"Is there some special event at Dorami Kindergarten today? Why are so many rich people flocking here?"
"Who knows! Lately, Dorami Kindergarten has been quite the buzz... A few days ago, some parents even climbed over the gate just to have the food served there, and there was even that anti-riot drill that almost blocked the entire street."
"I’ve heard about those too. That anti-riot drill even made it on the TV news."
"You’re behind the times. The kindergarten’s Chef Huang made it to the trending topics because of this and was ranked number one on the trending list this morning."
"Seems like your news is a bit outdated. The current number one on the trending list is: #Light of Redemption for the Desperate - Lamb Skewers#. And this is also related to their kindergarten’s Chef Huang!"
Upon hearing this, the passersby curiously took out their phones and started browsing Weibo.
You never know until you check!
What a surprise when you do!
"This Chef Huang from Dorami Kindergarten, how exquisite are his culinary skills that he could ignite a light of hope in the life of a desperate person, giving them the courage to pull themselves together?"
"Who knows! We don’t have the chance to try it ourselves."
"But it’s certain that his cooking must be exceptional. Every time I pass by the kindergarten’s entrance, the aroma wafting out always makes my mouth water and stirs the craving in my stomach."
"Indeed, that aroma is uplifting, but alas, we can only smell it, without the chance to taste it."
Amidst the envious gazes and curious murmurs of the passersby, the car doors gradually opened.
One by one, individuals with unique physiques and prominent features stepped swiftly out of their cars, each holding professional photography equipment like phone tripods.
Oh~
Turns out they’re a group of influencers.
The passersby gave them a glance, saw the "tools" in their hands, and immediately understood everything, retracting their curious gaze, but soon their hearts swelled with a complex feeling.
It must be easy making money as an influencer, driving luxury cars like these.
However, come to think of it.
What is the reason for these influencers gathering at Dorami Kindergarten?
Oh, right!
As the saying goes, "Flies follow the stream."
In this age where traffic is king on the internet, whoever controls the flow, holds infinite business opportunities.
These influencer hosts undoubtedly aim to increase their traffic and attract more followers, so like flies, wherever there’s traffic to piggyback on, they flock in hordes, hoping to snag a piece of this traffic pie!
And with Chef Huang from Dorami Kindergarten repeatedly trending, it’s become a massive pool of traffic that these influencer hosts naturally wouldn’t want to miss, all coming to check in and capitalize on the traffic...
"Sigh... the passing hot topics, the steadfast opportunist influencers, these influencers are just shameless, not even sparing a place as innocent as a kindergarten. In their pursuit of traffic, they really use every trick, their behavior is simply unsightly..."
"Sigh, it seems like the entrance of Dorami Kindergarten is about to turn into a check-in hotspot for netizens, but the children and teachers inside might face some disturbances because of this, even nearby residents probably won’t escape the commotion..."
"Sigh, these influencers are like flies, latching onto anyone who’s trending, running to wherever there’s a hot topic, someone needs to manage them..."
"Who wouldn’t agree!"
The passersby shook their heads helplessly and quietly turned to leave.
Out of sight, out of mind!
"Dorami Kindergarten, this is the place!"
The influencer Jian Nanchun was the first to step out of the car and walked briskly towards the entrance of Dorami Kindergarten.
As he drew near, his eyes fell on the large and obvious words "Dorami Kindergarten," reassuring him that he was in the right place.
He is actually a food discovery blogger.
The reason for choosing to come here is self-evident—for the wave of traffic!
After all, who wouldn’t want to catch some free traffic?
Other influencers arrived at the kindergarten’s entrance one after another, and upon seeing Jian Nanchun already there, they politely greeted him with a smile: "Hey, you came here because of the trending news, right?"
"Of course!" Jian Nanchun replied with a smile, "The news has already been confirmed, proving that this kindergarten’s Chef Huang’s culinary skills are extraordinary. Besides, how could we miss out on such a great opportunity to ride the wave of traffic..."
"Hahaha, great minds think alike!"
Everyone exchanged smiles.
Immediately, Spring took out his phone with those influencers and quickly initiated a livestream.
In the comment section of yesterday’s video, many netizens speculated whether he was sponsored.
Hmm.
Indeed, he was sponsored yesterday!
But he wouldn’t admit that directly, after all, he’s relying on this to make a living!
"Look, this is the kindergarten. Doesn’t it look familiar to everyone?" He guided the viewers’ attention while steadily pointing his phone camera at the kindergarten gate.
For a moment, the comments in the livestream chat began rolling quickly:
[Isn’t this the kindergarten mentioned in the first trending topic?]
[Who exactly is this Chef Huang, managing to repeatedly top the trending list in such a short time? Did the kindergarten spend a fortune just to buy trending spots for publicity?]
[If they really spent money for trending spots, shouldn’t it be to promote the kindergarten itself rather than just a chef?]
[Perhaps the school wants to use this opportunity to create a celebrity chef?]
[When I saw the trending topic this morning, I was puzzled. What kind of magic does lamb skewers hold to make a desperate person reignite hope in life?]
[The police station by the lake scenic area has confirmed this matter, it seems it’s really true!]
[Spring, you really know how to chase the traffic wherever it is!]
[Spring, don’t forget your role, you’re a food vlogger, not a school vlogger. What are you trying to do at the kindergarten? Even if there are delicacies hidden inside, you need to be able to go in and taste them!]
[Exactly, wherever there’s traffic, there’s Spring. Did Spring get secretly sponsored again?]
[...]
Spring chuckled and said, "How could that be? This is truly my first time setting foot in this kindergarten."
"Hey, are you doubting my abilities? But don’t worry, with my unique charm, getting into this kindergarten is a piece of cake for me. Come on, everyone, stick with me, and let’s unveil the mystery of Dorami Kindergarten’s cuisine together!"
He walked while guiding the viewers’ gaze, stepping forward full of anticipation: "You know what, just standing at the kindergarten gates, I can already feel an irresistible aroma wafting towards me. It seems like the food here is indeed exceptional..."
The livestream audience wasn’t large, but in this short period, more than five hundred people had already gathered.
He walked to the guardroom and politely knocked on the glass pane.
Uncle Li, engrossed in his lunch, was interrupted by the sudden knocking sound. He frowned slightly, lifted his head with a hint of displeasure, and looked towards the window, seeing a visitor.
He reluctantly stood up, worried that his food would get cold, and approached the window with his meal.
When he saw a small crowd holding phones not far outside the window, he was taken aback.
Oh?
Why are so many people gathering at the kindergarten entrance?
Are they, like that school vlogger Jiang Shuihan, trying to explore their kindergarten?
But the number seems a bit too many.
With a mind full of questions, he slowly opened the window.
In the next second...
The aroma of the food rushed towards Spring like a tide, diving straight into his nostrils as if engulfing him entirely.
He felt this scent stimulating his taste buds, his throat involuntarily performing a gulping motion.
Gosh~
This food smells so delicious!
This food looks so tempting!
Is this... the legendary Dorami Kindergarten lunch?
Then...
His gaze was firmly fixed on Uncle Li’s meal, unable to move away for a long time.
The livestream viewers were equally captivated by the alluring food, and even the chat comments diminished as everyone became engrossed in this unexpected culinary temptation.
"Hello, do you need anything?"
Uncle Li asked politely, his gaze inadvertently capturing Spring’s eyes almost glued to his meal.
Um...
Is this kid eyeing my food?
Judging by the look of it, that’s more than likely!
A subtle emotion flashed through Uncle Li’s heart, his eyes instantly showing a hint of "there’s always someone coveting Old Li’s meal" while he discreetly lifted his plate a bit higher to protect his delicious food from being "invaded."
Spring’s gaze instinctively followed Uncle Li’s plate’s movement, and when he could no longer see the food, he awkwardly yet courteously turned to Uncle Li’s slightly annoyed face and spoke: "Sir, hello, I’m Spring, a food vlogger. You see, could you make an exception and let me in to experience Dorami Kindergarten’s lunch? I assure you, I have many followers and could help promote the kindergarten..."
"Sir, we also want to go in and meet your kindergarten’s Chef Huang. What do you think, could you let us in?"
The other influencers also crowded around, eager to express their strong desire to visit the kindergarten and experience it firsthand.
