Daddy, Come Home For Dinner!

Chapter 899: Chapter 899: Who Is Zhuang Mingyan?

"What we want is for the International Cooking Competition organizers to take notice. This isn’t just one or two people complaining. The more people complain, the more the organizers have to take notice."

"Exactly! If the International Cooking Competition organizers don’t give us an explanation, we’ll boycott the International Cooking Competition!"

"Don’t underestimate our power. Even though we’re not contestants and can’t refuse to participate, our market in Hua Country is huge. If they want to make money and capture our market, they must listen to our voices."

"They’ve been bullying people on our turf, do they still want to make money?"

"Right, if they don’t severely punish Zhuang Mingyan, I’ll definitely boycott the International Cooking Competition to the end!"

Netizens have already spontaneously taken action.

Ye Fei’s fans naturally didn’t sit idly by.

They organized all the complaint channels, videos, and drafted contents and posted them on Weibo to make it easier for netizens to complain.

Netizens don’t even need to edit themselves, just copy the content, save the video.

Just a finger swipe to send it out.

It takes less than a minute in total.

It’s completely foolproof operation.

Meanwhile, on Ye Fei’s side, the competition officially ended.

Ye Fei couldn’t help feeling a bit melancholy.

Such serious preparation resulted in such an outcome.

If her skills were lacking, losing would just mean she was outmatched.

But now, it’s hard not to feel discontent.

However, fearing that her family would worry, Ye Fei tried hard to suppress these emotions.

The competition just ended, and Ye Fei doesn’t have enough time to sort through her emotions.

Give her even an hour, and she’d be better off than now.

As Ye Fei came out, Li Xiaoyun was there too.

Because she was worried about Ye Fei, Li Xiaoyun hung around.

Luckily, with the little guy standing among the Zhao Family, Li Xiaoyun wasn’t too nervous.

"Xiao Fei!" Seeing Ye Fei come out with Zhao Gushen, the old lady called out and joined the others coming over.

"How are you?" The old lady said, "If you feel bad, just let it out! No matter how you vent, it’s okay!"

Holding back like this, there needs to be a venting outlet.

"Even if it’s swearing, it’s fine," Chi Jingsi said.

Everyone: "..."

Even the mother-in-law didn’t mind, so what else can anyone say?

Li Xiaoyun sneaked a thumbs-up to the little one.

Showing that Ye Fei’s status in the in-law family is really something!

They’re all so doting, even directly letting her vent by cursing.

"It’s all because of Xiao Shen," the old man said, "didn’t even supervise beforehand? Now look at the mess it’s become."

Ye Fei quickly smiled and said, "I’m really okay, and the Changping Competition organizers have their own autonomy. They didn’t foresee Zhuang Mingyan’s actions, so they didn’t anticipate it."

"This was supposed to be a small gesture to give the International Cooking Competition organizers some face. Who knew Zhuang Mingyan wouldn’t yield?" Ye Fei said, "Honestly, even with personal grievances, most people wouldn’t just bring it up publicly, leaving themselves no retreat."

Let’s not talk about something distant, take the entertainment industry for example, there are plenty of people who are smiling in public but aren’t friendly in private.

There are many who tear each other apart behind the scenes fervently.

But as soon as they appear publicly together, even if just pretending, they act all friendly.

At most, there’s some subtle underhandedness.

But who would behave like Zhuang Mingyan?

Just to make Ye Fei lose a competition, risking her own career?

Or perhaps, Zhuang Mingyan thinks her family is wealthy enough not to care about this job.

Even if she loses the job, she can find another one or even live without working.

Or she thinks Zhao Gushen wouldn’t trouble or offend the International Cooking Competition organizers over this?

Thinks Zhao Gushen would rather not get on the bad side of the organizers?

"No one expected today’s events," Ye Fei said.

After hearing this, the old lady felt even worse, seeing Ye Fei comforting them while suffering.

It felt even harder to bear.

They had promised that no matter what, they’d always back Ye Fei.

The words still rang in their ears, but now Ye Fei had been bullied right on their turf, under their noses.

The old lady ground her teeth and said, "Otherwise, why don’t you give Xiao Shen a beating!"

Everyone: "..."

Li Xiaoyun: "..."

Could it be, Ye Fei is actually the Zhao Family’s biological child?

Zhao Gushen must have been adopted?

Chi Jingsi nodded, saying, "This matter was poorly handled by Xiao Shen, it’s all his responsibility."

"You’re hesitating to hit him in front of all of us. Then go home and secretly hit him," Chi Jingsi said.

Ye Fei: "..."

She really doesn’t plan on beating Zhao Gushen.

Zhao Gushen: "..."

"President." At this moment, Lu Chenghong hurried over.

Even though the competition is over, his work isn’t finished.

He too is responsible for the mess created.

Zhao Gushen hasn’t held him accountable yet, but Lu Chenghong couldn’t pretend nothing happened.

"Sir, Madam." Lu Chenghong greeted, seeing the Zhao Family all gathered there.

He quickly greeted them each in turn, not daring to miss anyone. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

"This issue resulted from my poor decision-making, causing the finals to end up this way." Lu Chenghong said guiltily.

Regardless of whether it was Ye Fei or someone else who suffered, it’s the same.

What should’ve been an exciting finale turned into a farce.

The champion had a lousy win, Ye Fei suffered a lousy loss, and the audience felt miserable watching.

"Indeed, you bear some responsibility." Zhao Gushen said.

Ye Fei looked at Zhao Gushen.

She wondered if Zhao Gushen was really going to hold Lu Chenghong accountable for her sake.

But on the other hand, Ye Fei believed Zhao Gushen might be seeking justice for her, this motive might exist.

Yet it surely wouldn’t be that simple.

Ye Fei trusted Zhao Gushen wouldn’t let personal feelings seep into his professional work.

If Zhao Gushen were truly pressing Lu Chenghong’s responsibility, there must be reasons Zhao Gushen deemed essential.

She then heard Zhao Gushen say, "It’s not just because Zhuang Mingyan disrupted the competition, nor merely because Ye Fei was bullied. It’s because you all easily caved to the International Cooking Competition."

"I don’t believe you are unaware of Zhuang Mingyan’s true capabilities. Without her background representing the organizers, aside from these external conditions, is she fit to be a judge? Is she qualified to stand beside the other five judges?"

"The other five judges are heavyweight figures in the culinary world, all top-notch chefs. But what is Zhuang Mingyan?"

"With her level, how can she be a judge? I know, you felt she represented the International Cooking Competition organizers."
