If he were lucky, perhaps he could also get the contact information of that girl from earlier.
However, that country bumpkin was truly lucky to have such a top-tier girl come to take orders. Why couldn't he snag one?
Although the girl beside him was quite good, she was a tier below Shi Yiling.
Who wouldn't want to experience something better?
As she re-entered, Ming Yi glanced back at the person not far away. She had sensed a slightly unpleasant gaze moments ago. Although the gaze wasn't directly on her, how could it escape her sharp senses?
Upon entering the large house, Uncle Qi finally seemed a little satisfied. "At least the room is relatively dry, more comfortable than houses in the countryside."
"Indeed, this is the only advantage of houses here," Ming Yi continued in agreement.
After Uncle Qi put his belongings away, Ming Yi said, "Let's go, Uncle Qi, Lingling. I'll take you to eat. You're about to taste food prepared by the best chef in the world."
"Really?"
Uncle Qi, who had just been taking his packed work tools out of his bag, stopped immediately upon hearing his nephew's words. "You said it, don't lie!"
"Of course not."
Ming Yi stated with certainty.
"Is it that exaggerated?" Lingling asked beside him.
"Not at all, he is indeed the best chef in the world," Ming Yi said.
Brother Xiao's culinary skills were absolutely superb, beyond comparison for ordinary people. Even if some so-called "Gods of Cooking" came, he would say the same.
However, Shi Yiling remained skeptical. She didn't believe that cooking was not subjective to individual taste. With so many different preferences, the "best chef in the world" was likely Ming Yi's personal bias.
With that, they set off.
From departure to arrival, it took about five minutes.
They walked to Lin Xiao's villa, which was just a building away.
The door was already open, waiting for them.
"Oh, you're finally back," Lin Xiao greeted Ming Yi as he walked in. He had just set down some dishes, and a table full of food was ready. But when he turned around, he froze.
There were two more people.
Of course, he knew there were two more people. What surprised him was that one of them was a woman, and this woman was linking arms with Ming Yi.
Ming Yi hadn't told him about this.
He immediately pointed at Ming Yi and said, "Don't move!"
Ming Yi's body tensed instantly. Although he didn't know what was happening, he instinctively straightened up.
Then, Lin Xiao took out his phone and took a series of photos of the two of them, clicking and sending them.
He then put away his phone and said with a smile to Ming Yi, "After only a few days apart, you've brought back a woman? That's good for you! I never thought you, who used to seem so awkward, had this kind of ability?"
"Ahem... Brother Xiao, let me introduce you. This is my fiancée." Ming Yi said, gesturing for Shi Yiling to greet him. "Lingling, this is Brother Xiao, my superior, also known as... the Dragon King of the Northern Territory."
"That last part is a bit redundant," Lin Xiao quickly said. "What's so good about a mere title?"
A mere title?
Shi Yiling blinked her eyes. This was considered a mere title?
She suddenly had a moment of realization. "This is the same person who forced you to accept an interview..."
