MEOW~
Arriving at the kitchen doorway, Dundun sat down obediently on the ground and didn’t go in.
Ever since the first day Lin Xu had told it little kitties weren’t allowed in the kitchen, it had remembered it well.
At this moment, although there was delicious and tempting fish inside, the little guy sat dutifully at the door, without stepping a foot over the line.
"Wow, Dundun is so well-behaved. Other cats would have run into the kitchen and made a mess by now, but it actually knows to wait outside."
"It’s probably because the Boss taught it well."
"I also think it’s because the Boss taught it well; counting on the Boss’s wife is a bit of a stretch."
In a corner not far away, Geng Lele, Dou Wenjing, and Shu Yun watched this scene, all finding it amazing. Who would have thought that a little kitty could be as obedient and sensible as a dog?
Luckily, Zeng Xiaoqi got it on video.
Once this footage is edited, with a caption about how obedient and smart the kitty is, isn’t that just asking to go viral?
Before long, Shen Baobao came out of the kitchen with a plate in one hand and Dundun’s little dining table for eating in the other,
"Is my good baby hungry? Mommy is going to give you fish now, steamed cod just out of the pot. See if you like it; if not, we’ll switch to tuna. If that doesn’t work, Mommy will go buy you..."
She set the little dining table on the floor, then placed the plate on it. Dundun immediately came over, stuck out its tongue, and began to lap it up. SLURP, SLURP.
Zeng Xiaoqi came over, first capturing the affectionate scene between mother and child, and then crouched down to film Dundun eating the meat.
After filming enough, the beautiful host casually sat down on the floor,
"This video will definitely go viral once it’s released. There was no one to disturb me just now. I shot it in one take, from Dundun playing on the Cat Castle to trotting over here to wait for food, and then to you bringing out the plate—all in one go. It’s fantastic."
Shen Baobao said,
"Xiaoqi, you shouldn’t sit on the floor; you might get a big butt."
"I’m exhausted. I need to rest a bit before standing up. Besides, if sitting could make my butt bigger, I’d sit on the floor every day. I so wish for a peach-shaped butt."
"A peach-shaped butt needs exercise; sitting like that will only make your butt flat and wide..."
Zeng Xiaoqi clambered up from the floor.
"I didn’t realize the floor was so cold; it’s freezing. I’d better sit on the sofa."
Behind her, Dou Wenjing and Shu Yun couldn’t help but laugh.
You have small boobs, so whatever you say goes.
Dundun licked the plate clean, very satisfied with its stepmom’s cooking skills.
As it was squatting nearby, licking its paws and washing its face, Shen Baobao suddenly came closer,
"Son, did Mommy make the fish yummy?"
Dundun was so startled that its fur fluffed up all over, and any fondness it’d started to feel instantly vanished.
With an expression of dismay, Shu Yun said,
"You can’t scare cats when they’re washing their faces; don’t stress it out... Don’t be afraid, Dundun, it’s just your mom, not a stranger, don’t be scared... Director Zeng, are we still filming?"
Zeng Xiaoqi was ready to check the playback on her camera to see if any shots needed to be redone when Director Shen came in with a piece of news,
"Lin Xu bought lamb chops to treat the crew. It seems we’re doing grilled lamb chops."
Grilled! Lamb! Chops?
What are we waiting for? Let’s get back and eat!
Zeng Xiaoqi turned off her camera, and while putting the lens cap back on, she said,
"Then let’s go back and eat. Tonight, I’ll sort through the video material. If necessary, we can continue shooting tomorrow. Anyway, we have a seven-day holiday. I refuse to believe we can’t shoot it well."
Everyone began to pack up things like tripods and, after finishing, took the elevator to the underground parking garage and drove toward the North Fourth Ring.
At this moment, Lin Xu was sitting in the store eating.
Tonight’s dinner was chicken soup noodles accompanied by roast chicken and flatbread. The chicken soup was made from the chicken carcass and bones left over from making Spicy Chicken at noon; just simmering them made a broth.
After adding the noodle slices and drinking the hot soup, it warmed and comforted the whole body.
The roast chicken had already been torn apart. Paired with freshly baked flatbread and refreshing pickles, it was very delicious.
"This roast chicken is really good, tasty."
"Even the chicken breast is flavorful; the Boss’s culinary skills are truly remarkable."
"I’ve found that chicken thigh meat stuffed into flatbread is really satisfying to eat."
"Is that so? I’ll also try a piece."
"I used to eat roast chicken cold and thought it was pretty tough, but I didn’t expect it to have a different flavor when eaten hot."
As everyone was discussing, Xu Xinhua came up to get some flatbread.
People from the marinade section usually ate in their workspace because some meats needed to be watched over while marinating.
Seeing Lin Xu, he walked over with a pleased smile and said,
"Boss, half of the roast chickens are already sold. I really didn’t expect the neighbors around here to be so supportive. Many roast chickens got sold even before they had cooled down."
Lin Xu was also a bit surprised.
Originally, I had thought about offering a roast chicken to each private room during the evening rush to boost sales, but half were already sold.
That means I’ll have to prepare another batch early in the morning, and I’ll need to cook according to the maximum capacity of the layered pot.
Today it was only the neighbors who bought them. Once the flavor of the roast chicken spreads, wouldn’t it sell like crazy?
Thinking of this, he said to Xu Xinhua,
"Today, let the marinade section close up early. Just leave one person in charge of selling the marinades. Come in at four in the morning to properly prepare the chickens and fry them. Aim to have them ready for marinating by six when I arrive."
"Okay, Boss, I’ll arrange for that in a bit."
Lin Xu then instructed the errand boy,
"Have Old Huang deliver three hundred freshly slaughtered tender roosters before four o’clock in the morning. With the new batch of roast chickens, we need an adequate supply to open up sales more smoothly."
"Alright, Boss."
After giving these instructions, Lin Xu finished his chicken soup noodles, ate a flatbread with the roast chicken, and then went to the cold storage.
He brought out the marinated lamb ribs, rinsed off the bits of vegetables from the surface, and got ready to grill them.
Other YouTubers would pamper their fans by posting an extra video or adding a status update.
But Lin Xu was different; he directly made grilled lamb ribs for his fans to eat.
True fan pampering benefits.
He lit the charcoal and piled up some more, trying to get the charcoal to ignite quickly.
Compared to grilling meat, grilling ribs is relatively simple, but there are a few points to be careful about. One small mistake, and these ribs could end up burnt...
