I'm the Culinary God-Chapter 713 - 321: The Strongest Highlights in History! Dundun: I will take away your ’holy sh*t’ in three seconds! [Subscribe Please]_2
"Clearly a good student who doesn’t hang out in pool halls. The larger-numbered balls are white mixed with other colors, called striped balls or big balls, while the solid-colored balls with smaller numbers are called small balls or solids... But Dundun, being a cat, can you really tell the difference?"
Director Shen said with a laugh, "My son is so talented, there’s definitely no problem. Right, his godmom?"
Shu Yun nodded, "Yeah, our Dundun is so amazing. It’s totally normal for him to play pool... I’ll go too this afternoon. I haven’t seen my godson play pool yet."
Dundun used to enjoy playing pool like that. At the time, Shen Baobao hadn’t paid much attention, thinking Lin Xu was the one who separated the balls for him. But after watching the little fellow’s pantomime, she figured Dundun must have arranged all those pool balls himself.
Lunch had just ended, and everyone hurriedly left with Dundun, planning to film him playing pool.
Meanwhile, Lin Xu went downstairs to check on the roast chickens. After confirming they were ready, he had Xu Xinhua start bringing them out for sale. He also took the opportunity to greet the neighbors queuing outside, asking them to be patient, as the roast chickens would be on sale soon.
Xie Baomin had just eaten a big serving of fried noodles and a bowl of hot and sour soup. He was about to wander around the shop and discuss some cooking techniques with Lin Xu when Da Chun dragged him away for a workout.
"Brother-in-law, you’re seriously out of shape! You’d better start working out soon. As long as you follow my instructions, I guarantee you’ll have an eight-pack in no time."
Upon hearing "eight-pack," Chef Xie, who initially hadn’t wanted to go, immediately waved his hand. The whole family piled into the car and left, eager to see what was so different about Da Chun’s suggested workout.
Seeing his senior brother so full of confidence, Lin Xu really wanted to give him a heads-up.
The fitness exercises and routines that Da Chun, a titan forged in a sports school, could easily perform didn’t mean a novice could handle them too.
Sitting back and waiting for Chef Xie’s fitness fail.
After sending off his senior brother and his family, Lin Xu took out his phone and posted an update under the Lin Ji’s Food topic:
"A new soup to complement the fried noodles will be served in the restaurant tonight. Don’t miss it if you love fried noodles."
Then he checked the popularity rankings. Today, Lin Ji’s Food’s popularity had dropped slightly but was still second on the Yanjing Region’s hot search list, while on the national list, it ranked somewhere in the twenties.
Ahead of it, apart from two or three trending topics criticizing tourist spots, the rest were videos of celebrities checking in at various tourist attractions.
During National Day, with so much buzz, it was normal for celebrities to ride the wave of popularity.
Especially topics that resonated with ordinary people, such as crowded tourist spots or traffic jams, could incite people’s desire to complain.
Everyone joined the celebrities in complaining, and just like that, the topic’s popularity shot up.
Looking at the national list, the name ’Lin Ji’s Food’ stood out starkly amidst a crowd of celebrities complaining, grandstanding, or even making a fuss about nothing.
Switching from the national list to the regional list, the topic #Beijing Travel Tips# was still soaring at the top spot.
Besides the large number of tourists visiting Beijing, the main reason for its top ranking was that many guesthouses, hotels, and attractions featured in this trending topic were actively boosting their presence. Driven by this advertising effect, the topic’s popularity had surged significantly in a short period.
We need to figure out a way to get to first place!
After reviewing the list, Lin Xu decided to release the behind-the-scenes footage, originally planned for the evening, in the afternoon instead.
He decided to act while the competition for trending topics in the Yanjing Region wasn’t too intense. He’d try to surge ahead and complete the ’main task’ first. This way, he could avoid Beijing celebrities jumping in to ride the wave, which might cause him to miss the opportunity to hit number one.
After settling this, Lin Xu put away his phone and continued cooking.
Under the post about the new soup, there were loads of responses from netizens:
Blind Taxi Driver: To go with fried noodles? I’m guessing hot and sour soup. What do you think, Brother Hao Han?
Dry Mountain Liang: They have hot and sour soup at the shop. I had it with fried noodles yesterday. It was quite good.
Bobo Not Happy: I made a special trip to the tourist area, and it turned out Boss Lin wasn’t back! I was so annoyed I ordered two whole roasted sheep. Any friends coming to the tourist area tomorrow who happen to be around can eat for free! 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Two Hundred Pounds Cutie: AAAHHH, is that for real? I’m in the tourist area right now! Brother Bobo Not Happy, you’re so generous!
Tianyi 3G is Fast: Brother Bobo Not Happy, you’re awesome! I can’t get to the tourist area until noon tomorrow. Could you save a piece of lamb for me?
Lost Roasted Whole Sheep: I’ll try the new soup at the shop tonight. Also, I’m planning to bring roast chicken to my relative’s house for lunch tomorrow. Should I buy it today or tomorrow?
Invisible Chicken Wings: It depends if you and your relatives prefer it hot or cold. If you like it cold, buy it tonight. If hot, buy it at noon tomorrow. Let me share a little secret: the shop starts selling roast chicken at 11 a.m., right out of the oven; it’s crazy delicious. Even a picky eater like me can devour a whole one.
Blind Taxi Driver: Forgive my poor eyesight, but did you miss the word ’not’? Shouldn’t it be ’not a picky eater’?
Invisible Chicken Wings: ????? Blind man, just you wait! Next time I get your cab, you’re getting a scathing one-star review!

「West Fourth Ring, Shen Family Villa.」
When everyone arrived on the basement floor, they discovered it was a fully equipped gym.
"Wow, it’s so beautiful! A dream gym! I absolutely love houses with gyms. I could work out every day and get enviable abs and perfect peach hips..."
Zeng Xiaoqi fell in love with the place immediately.
She even tried the barbell Shen Baobao used for squats.
Shu Yun said with a smile, "You have such a small chest, and yet you still insist on not training it."
Zeng Xiaoqi wanted to retort, but regrettably, it was indeed the case.
