A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 833: Culinary Skills!
It’s not that Mu Yan wants to stand out, but if they have to skip lunch because Zhao Yong got hurt, she feels they’d be roasted by netizens.
She sits on the ground, picks up the knife Zhao Yong used, and starts to gut the fish.
Zhang Qun and Shen Donglin, being two big men, feel a bit embarrassed. How can they let a delicate girl like Mu Yan do something so gruesome?
"Mu Yan, let me do the fish gutting," Shen Donglin says.
Zhang Qun chimes in, "I’ll do it instead."
Mu Yan smiles, "No need, I can handle it."
"How can we let you do this? You’re a guest," Zhang Qun says with a frown.
Everyone here isn’t stupid; with Zhao Yong hurt and stepping down, whoever steps up will definitely gain some fans.
Mu Yan doesn’t want to become the target of criticism, seeing Zhang Qun insist, she nods, "Okay, you do it."
She sets down the knife, stands up, and lets Zhang Qun take her place.
Zhang Qun immediately sits where she was and starts doing the fish.
However, the fish in his hand is slippery and still alive, and Zhang Qun looks helpless, holding the knife.
Shen Donglin chuckles, "If you don’t have the skills, don’t take on tough tasks. Seeing you like this, I think I also wouldn’t be able to handle this fish; let Mu Yan do it."
Zhang Qun gives a self-conscious smile, sets down the knife, and stands up.
"Mu Yan, you handle it."
Mu Yan walks over and continues handling the fish.
"Mu Yan is amazing, she can do everything, I always thought you were capable when we filmed together before," Fan Youyou remarks with admiration. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Mu Yan smiles, "Don’t flatter me like that, I’ll get conceited."
She lowers her eyes and starts to clean the fish.
Zhang Qun jokingly says, "I can’t just be outdone like this, I must learn from Mu Yan."
As she says it, she squats beside Mu Yan, watching her gut the fish.
Jiang Yun feels a bit tired and directly goes inside to change clothes, while Shen Donglin continues picking corn and then goes to extract corn juice.
Zhang Qun crouches beside Mu Yan, continuously praising her for being amazing, having good acting skills, and full of life skills.
Mu Yan thinks he’s a bit noisy, but can’t say it outright, so she responds politely.
Fan Youyou sits on the bench outside, watching them get along harmoniously, joking and laughing, feeling it’s very annoying.
Something flashes fleetingly in her mind.
Soon, Mu Yan finishes gutting the fish, cleans out the insides, and then goes to pick greens.
Once everything is almost ready, she looks at Zhao Yong and asks, "Mr. Zhao Yong, please watch over me, and if something goes wrong, remind me."
Zhao Yong laughs, "I see your technique is skilled, probably won’t need my help."
Mu Yan doesn’t argue, and starts to light the fire and cook.
There is no gas stove here, only a traditional stove, so starting a fire fills the place with smoke, causing Mu Yan to almost tear up from the smoke.
Luckily, the fire is soon lit, wood is added, and once the wood is burning, Mu Yan starts to pour oil to cook the fish.
Today, she’s going to make braised fish and crucian carp tofu soup.
Though everyone knows Mu Yan’s family is not well-off, having faced many hardships at a young age, they don’t have much expectation for her cooking.
Anyway, reality shows are just for show; as long as there’s audience rating and attention, it’s fine.
Mu Yan doesn’t think much about it, focusing on her cooking, not bothering Zhao Yong.
One side of the fish is fried, and she holds the spatula ready to flip.
Zhao Yong thinks that as a girl, she might not be able to flip the pan, prepared to help her.
Who knew... Mu Yan effortlessly lifts the pan, gently flips the spatula, flipping the fish over without any damage.
Zhang Qun and the others’ faces show amazement; it seems they’ve invited a little culinary genius today?
