I'm the Culinary God-Chapter 722 - 324: Does Professor Cui like to eat Drunken Crab? Arranged! Senior brother, are you okay? [Subscribe Please]_2
Now, partnerships were in place with businesses for range hoods, kitchen equipment, and seasonings.
Food ingredients were also provided by Boss Huang’s company.
They were just missing the main sponsor for the title broadcast.
But there was no rush because the first three months were all sponsored by Lin Ji. Even if they secured a deal now, it wouldn’t start for another three months, so they might as well wait.
Wait until the viewership stabilized at a high level before discussing it.
As for how to maintain that high level, naturally, that was by having the chefs prepare more appealing dishes.
Like the Dough Figurine Chef Xie filmed last time, and today’s Lotus Cake as well as the Doodle Cake. These were dishes that could make viewership skyrocket.
"The boss said he added lard. Won’t that make it very high in calories?"
Shu Yun, who was blatantly slacking off in front of the boss and the company’s general manager, bit into a Doodle Cake, worried about gaining weight on her belly if she ate too much.
Zeng Xiaoqi, who was fantasizing about landing a big sponsorship deal, said, "No way. The Doodle Cake is so small, how much space could the lard take up? Maybe Boss Lin didn’t put any lard in at all and is just saying that to make us eat them."
Having said that, she stuffed the remaining half of the Doodle Cake in her hand into her mouth. Two bites for one of these little darlings—so satisfying!
Geng Lele thought the self-deceiving antics of these older girls were even cuter than the Doodle Cakes. She was about to mock them when suddenly her phone rang.
She picked it up to see it was a call from Professor Cui and quickly answered.
"Professor, where are you? Hurry over! My Brother Xu didn’t just make Lotus Cakes; he also made Doodle Cakes! Hurry up and come taste them. They’re absolutely sweeter than first love!"
On the other end of the phone, Cui Qingyuan was silent. What did my first love ever do to you to deserve being used as a constant backdrop?
He said, "I’m almost there. Can you get a couple of people from the restaurant to help me carry some things? I’ve brought some ingredients for tonight, and there’s quite a lot."
Ingredients? Just carrying stuff doesn’t interest Geng Lele much. But if you’re talking about ingredients, then I, Geng, cannot just stand by and watch!
She immediately replied, "Sure, sure! We’ll come to the entrance right away to help you carry them."
After hanging up, she said to the older girls who were deceiving themselves, "Stop worrying about calories. My professor brought some ingredients for tonight, and it seems like a lot. Who can help me go down and carry them?"
Upon hearing about food, everyone sprang to their feet, ready to go down and check it out.
At that moment, Lin Xu had just finished frying the second batch.
To prevent the ladies from shirking, Lin Xu specifically had his kitchen helper take the elevator down with the kitchen trolley used for transporting ingredients, to help carry the load.
Soon, a delivery van stopped at the restaurant’s entrance.
Cui Qingyuan pushed open the passenger door and got out, waving at the kitchen helper. Meanwhile, the driver had already opened the back of the van and started unloading several large cardboard boxes.
Shen Baobao and the others stared, baffled. What kind of ingredients requires such large cardboard boxes? Crocodile?
"Professor, what’s this? You didn’t bring our computer lab’s server over, did you?"
While helping the kitchen helper load the boxes onto the trolley, Cui Qingyuan replied, "Hairy Crabs. Your Aunt Yan sent them from Shanghai. The quality should be good. My dorm doesn’t even have a single pot, so I thought I’d bring them here for everyone to share."
Hairy Crabs! A wave of delight flashed in everyone’s eyes. It looked like there was going to be a feast tonight! Being at Lin Ji was great; all sorts of delicious food practically stuffed itself into your mouth.
"I’ll help carry!"
"I’ll help you lift!"
"I’ll steady it!"
Soon, the beautiful ladies, who were previously just onlookers, transformed into porters, helping to lift those large, instantly appealing cardboard boxes.
After everything was loaded onto the trolley, they all helped push it up the gentle slope at the restaurant’s entrance, then chattering excitedly, they went inside.
Just as Cui Qingyuan was about to follow, Geng Lele suddenly asked, "Professor, why did Aunt Yan suddenly send you so many Hairy Crabs? I remember just yesterday you were posting on your social media about crab season arriving, and today the Hairy Crabs are here..."
Tsk tsk, feels like there’s some juicy... cough, some history here.
Cui Qingyuan smiled. "We were just childhood playmates who got along very well. Lele, can you focus on your studies instead of digging up gossip all day? We’re not in a gossip club, you know..."
With that, he walked into the restaurant first.
Following behind, Geng Lele smirked slightly. Just now, her professor’s breathing was hurried, his facial expression slightly unnatural, his speech quickened, and he pushed up his glasses three times—clear signs of being flustered. Next time I see Aunt Yan, I’ll have to observe her reactions and discreetly inquire about her personal situation. If they’re both single, I’ll find a way to play matchmaker. Whether it’s helping her professor snag the billionaire Boss Yan or helping Aunt Yan land a highly intelligent Tsinghua professor, it seems like a remarkable achievement either way. Hmph, you like playing these little games of ambiguity and subtlety, but I’m going to pierce right through that paper-thin veil. Rebellious.
Upstairs, after opening the outer cardboard boxes, they found another layer of boxes inside.
Opening these revealed the Hairy Crabs, tightly bound with string.
Each crab was lively, with a perfect appearance and a large size—absolutely top-tier quality.
"Isn’t this too many?"
All those large cardboard boxes were full of them, giving Lin Xu the feeling he was facing a crab invasion.
Since there were so many crabs, well, they had to be eaten.
