Upon hearing that the two bosses would participate personally, both Old Liu and Xiao Zhu showed expressions of guilt. They knew how much effort everyone had put into this competition, tirelessly refining the jam day and night, constantly overturning previous efforts just to achieve perfection for this day. Yet, unfortunately...
Had it not been for their greediness last night, such a thing wouldn’t have happened. Both were deeply regretful.
"President Cheng, my stomach doesn’t hurt anymore. Let me do it!" Xiao Zhu gritted his teeth and said.
"Look at your lips, all chapped. It’s a sign of exhaustion. Where’s your strength? You can’t even pit a fruit. Going up there now will only make things worse and slow down the process!" Cheng Su said in a deep voice.
Xiao Zhu lowered his head with a face full of guilt, saying, "It’s all my fault. If it weren’t for..."
"Alright, this isn’t the time to determine who’s at fault. Besides, it might not be your fault. It’s possible that you fell into someone else’s trap!" Cheng Su didn’t want them to blame themselves too much and said this to console them.
Fell into someone else’s trap? Does that mean they were drugged?
Xiao Zhu’s face changed slightly, his lips trembling. Could it really be like this?
"I also have experience with making jam. Now, let’s review the formula proportions and the process." Cheng Su didn’t have time to assign blame. At this point, investigating further would be meaningless. The immediate priority was to address the issue together. The competition was about to start. She had to confirm the procedures and then head into the fray herself.
Xiao Zhu and Old Liu immediately perked up and began discussing with Cheng Su the proportions they had already determined and the precautions to take...
The bell rang, and people entered one after another. Reporters, spectators, and judges took their seats behind their respective nameplates. Someone from the organizers took the microphone to deliver a speech for this competition.
Wan Fuyu, seated in Joy Soon Loy’s reserved section, noticed the absence of Cheng Su in Joy Soon Loy’s spot. He couldn’t help but look around. Had they given up?
It wasn’t until the organizers announced the entry of company representatives that Wan Fuyu saw Cheng Su and Ning Ge standing together, and he was taken aback.
