"Thank you."

"No need to thank me, your highness. It's this Caibao honor to serve you." Saying this a little imagery of a cute miniature kid appeared in front of Dilireba and bowed before disappearing back into the 'box'. The box s.h.i.+ned again before turning back to the way it was found.

The others are still a.s.sessing the information they received as the two elderly ponder what they should make.

"It's a hard topic just like the previous years, I am starting to become more curious about what your ident.i.ty is." Qi Weilan said to Dilireba as she scanned her from top to bottom as if she can somehow find a clue on her.

"Old friend, I'm not going to lose to you this time."

"Me neither."

The two elders shared a smile as they move into their own independent stations. From the ingredients, Dilireba's grandmother (Grandmother Wen) gathered the following ingredients: a lotus, dates, brown sugar, lobsters, crabs, shrimps, fish, lettuce, and her homemade special sauce that 'makes every dish unique' and etc. Grandmother Qi gathers the ingredients: purple rice, brown rice, white rice, sugar, flour, eggs, vanilla extract, b.u.t.ter, milk, yeast, and lychee and etc.

"Nainai, what are you making today?"

"There are twelve courses that contain plates of seafood such as the lobster fruit salad, steamed fish and tempura shrimps. For Hors d'Oeuvre, we have crab and avocado toast. For the desert, we have sweet lotus soup. Then fruit lobster salad, steamed fish, marshmallow puff cake and etc."

Just hearing the names of the dish is enough to make the two foodies salivate

"Then Qi Nainai what are you making?"

The two turn to Grandmother Qi, in expectation.

"At first I wanted to do a 5-course meal but of course I cannot lose out to your grandmother so I will also now I'll make 12 courses. Macaroons, Lotus shaped rice cakes, Cheese fondue, the beggar's chicken paired with fried rice, etc. "

"Wow, Reba looks like we got almost all types of food out there in the world, right at our Kitchen. So many different cuisines altogether. See? I told you they will go all out this year!" Qi Weilan said proudly.

Dilireba smiled and nodded, but was actually not really hearing what Qi Weilan said because she was too busy staring at her grandmother working on preparing the food.

Grandmother Wen's hand was moving to rhythmic upbeat-like music, while Grandmother Qi moved elegantly almost floating on air with the food in hand. Each concentrating on their own dishes.

Trash talks? Peh! Don't need them. Our dishes do the talking!

First stop, Grandmother Wen.

Grandmother Wen had already finished preparing the ingredients just waiting for them to dry a bit.

But the process took so long, so Dilireba and Qi Weilan decide to put on some music to pa.s.s time while chatting with each other.

"Reba, is there a boy you are interested in?" Qi Weilan asked while wiggling her eyebrows.

Dilireba laughed, it looked so silly especially since Qi Weilan looked like the cold tempera type of beauty.

Dilireba decided to tease Qi Weilan back. She smirks.

"Lan jie, I think you are interested in someone right?~ I think that it is that muscular meathead I saw last time with you right?~"

"Reba!"

Qi Weilan blushes. But quickly return back to her normal state, and her smirk returns.

"Hey~ Reba, I think that who-ycall-it? Oh yes, that Bai Jiayun wasn't it? He was pretty handsome."

"It's Bai Jiayu, and I would say he looked prettier than handsome."

"Really? In what way?"

"His eyelashes are longer than girls and even boys. As you know, boys naturally had longer natural eyelashes than girls, so that is one feature. His eyes are very big and made him look very cute just like a puppy. I think people usually call him a shota. Yes, a shota. However, he recently just started to have speed growth and much taller than me now! I wish he would just stay short, he is so adorable before!"

"...Reba, I think you are the only one that would think of him that way…"

"Huh? Why? Isn't he like a puppy?"

"People are afraid of him since he was a well-known delinquent, but recently when you come over he started to s.h.i.+mmer down and even got to the top of the cla.s.s."

"Huh? Really? But even so, he is good-looking, yet people avoided him like a plague."

"Well, there was a rumor that if you look at Bai Jiayu for more than 15 seconds, you will be enchanted and bid to His biddings. But of course, because you are close to Bai Jiayu and very friendly to others, those rumors die down. But even so, people's first instinct was to keep their heads low in front of him with the exception of you and two other people."
