“Both sides have finished tasting each other’s dishes and there are no objections to the results of the Food Fight.”

The main judge who was sitting in the middle of the judges’ seats slowly spoke, “I hereby declare, Qin Lang is the victor of this Food Fight!”

With the main judge’s words falling, Star Power gathered in the void, dividing into a big and a small group, flying towards the man and woman in the field.

“The steamed ribs with rice powder are really delicious.”

Shen Qian signaled her Food Spirit to absorb Star Power while tasting the ribs that were steamed to the point that the meat fell off the bone and melted in her mouth, showing a satisfied expression.

As the defeated side of the Food Fight, she did not show any signs of disappointment. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝘯𝘰𝓿𝑒𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝑚

“I didn’t expect that the combination of meat and rice flour, heated with steam, could have such a peculiar taste. I have learned something new.”

“The pan-fried crispy ribs you made are also very good.” Qin Lang looked at two little ones grappling for a piece of golden crispy fried ribs and smiled, “What theme should we choose next time?”

“Next time…” Shen Qian put down the empty steamer and stretched lazily, “Did you forget that we are leaving today?”

“I did forget.” Qin Lang scratched his head.

Two days had already passed since they bid farewell to Zhou Qing and Li Hong.

Instead of heading straight to Lanqiu City, Qin Lang had a good time exploring Yue Hu City under the leadership of Shen, the Tour Guide, and savored various local specialty foods.

As a return, Qin Lang had four Food Fights with Shen Qian in these two days.

Though they were called Food Fights, they were more like an exchange of culinary skills.

Shen Qian learned a lot of new things, while Qin Lang used the knowledge he had learned from Ms. Ye Cangqing’s notes during the process.

For example, with these steamed ribs with rice powder, he added a new spice during the marinating process, and made some adjustments to the original seasoning ratio, thus enhancing the overall taste.

“We are leaving at noon, you haven’t packed yet, have you?” Shen Qian started with a strange expression, “If we miss the ferry, we’ll have to buy new tickets.”

“Don’t worry.” Qin Lang focused, “With Thought Waves, it won’t take more than a few minutes to pack.”

“Thought Waves are convenient.” Shen Qian showed an envious expression, “As soon as Piggie Squad advances to three stars, I’ll get it a second-level Mind Stone: Mind Movement to see if it can awaken this skill.”

“Humph!”

Beside Shen Qian, a pink Food Spirit with a cute pig’s nose and four short legs, but no ears, raised its head and squealed. It looked no different from a little pig.

This is one of Shen Qian’s two Food Spirits, the two-star, named Piggie Squad. At this moment, it had a confident look on its face, obviously feeling that it could also awaken Thought Waves.

“Caw!”

Next to Piggie Squad, a ball-shaped gray-green Food Spirit lifted up one round and plump claw and clicked on Piggie Squad’s body, as if encouraging it.

Its body shone with a chilly glow under the light, like a natural armor, with three stars circling around it.

This was Shen Qian’s other Food Spirit, Shrimp Ball.

Its name and appearance make it easy to identify the Ingredients of the Origin Cuisine, just like Dan Bao, it’s simple and direct.

“I’ll go back to the hotel first, see you at the pier.” After a glance at the time, Qin Lang didn’t delay and left.

“Okay!” Watching Qin Lang’s departing figure, Shen Qian turned her head to look at the two Food Spirits beside her, “Let’s go back and check our luggage. We’ll be away for a long time, so we can’t forget anything.”

An hour later, the two met again at the pier with their luggage.

Besides them, Shen He was also there to see them off.

“Grandpa, it’s not my first time traveling.” Seeing the worried Shen He, Shen Qian sighed, “I’ve heard all this many times.”

“Okay, okay.” Shen He, who had been babbling, smiled wryly, stopped talking, turned his head to Qin Lang and said, “Little Qin, please take care of Qianqian on the road.”

“Why shouldn’t I be the one taking care of him?” Shen Qian puffed out her cheeks, “After all, I’m two months older than Qin Lang.”

Shen He gave Shen Qian a “you know you’re playing dumb” look.

After a few days of contact, he found that Qin Lang was significantly more mature than Shen Qian of the same age, so it was obvious that in the upcoming journey, his granddaughter would be the one being taken care of.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Shen. We’ll take care of each other on the way.” Qin Lang smiled.

Shen He nodded approvingly, looking at the cruise ship docked at the pier with the word “Flowing Cloud” engraved on the hull, “Here comes the ship.”

“Grandpa, we agreed that you must come to Crown Ling City to watch my competition at the Mingjing Province Cooking Contest!” Shen Qian stared at Shen He.

“Don’t worry, it’s my precious granddaughter’s first time on the provincial-level stage, I, as a grandpa, will definitely be there.” Shen He laughed heartily.

“Wlioo??? ”

An elongated horn blared at the pier, as if urging the tourists who hadn’t boarded the ship to hurry up.

Seeing this, Shen Qian didn’t speak again, waved at Shen He, and quickly boarded the ship with Qin Lang.

When the “Flowing Cloud” set sail, they put their luggage away, went on deck, and could still see Shen He standing on the pier watching the ship sail away.

Shen Qian did not speak, her hand gripping the railing slightly tightened and her eyes turned a bit red.

It wasn’t until the pier was completely out of sight that she regained her composure, returned to her usual self, and looked at Qin Lang who was enjoying the lake view and asked, “When will we disembark again?”

“Tomorrow morning.” Qin Lang had done a lot of homework for the upcoming trip, “Tomorrow morning the ship will dock on the Bei Qiu River, we will disembark there, go through Lan Qiu Forest, and arrive at Lanqiu City.”

The Xiayun River flows into the Jumping Fish Lake, and from its source, it is divided into three different river routes.

Among the three different river routes, Bei Qiu River runs through the northern part of Lanqiu City, where we’ll disembark and head southwest, going through the primitive forest, Lan Qiu Forest, to reach the city area of Lanqiu City.

This is not the closest route to Lanqiu City.

The East Xian River, one of the three river routes, can directly reach the urban area of Lanqiu City without having to go through Lan Qiu Forest.

However, this is also why Qin Lang did not choose it.

In the northern part of Lanqiu City, there is a lush primeval forest known as Lan Qiu Forest. Named after its hilly terrain, it is also a famous tourist area in Lanqiu City.

Qin Lang, who stayed in Mingjing Province, was traveling with a relaxed attitude and naturally didn’t want to miss such a place.

As for Qin Lang’s choice, Shen Qian has no major objections.

There are still several months until the Mingjing Province Cooking Contest, so there’s no rush.

Plus, she has never been to a primeval forest before, which sounds quite exciting.

“We’re not disembarking until tomorrow morning…” Shen Qian rested her elbow on the railing, propped her cheek in her hand, and began to think about how to pass the boring time on board the ship.

Not far from the two, several young men and women looked over, whispering from time to time, then eventually walked straight over to the pair.

“Are… are you, Boss Qin?”
