At lunchtime, everyone was surprised by Bei Yutang’s culinary skills as they looked at the table full of dishes.
These dishes weren’t just simple stir-fries; they were beautifully presented, fragrant, and delicious.
“You made all of this?” Dr. Zhang asked, looking at her with astonishment.
Feng Qing also looked at Bei Yutang with surprise.
After her initial surprise, Li Mengmeng immediately curled her lip and muttered disdainfully.
Yan Jin also showed a look of shock.
Seeing that Yan Jin was just as surprised as the others, Li Mengmeng felt a little unhappy but didn’t say anything.
Dr. Zhang joked, “Miss Bei, are you a chef, not a designer?”
“It looks like it was made by a Michelin-starred chef. It’s quite surprising.” Feng Qing said, unusually kindly.
Yan Jin chimed in with praise, “Whoever marries Miss Bei will be incredibly lucky.”
Seeing everyone flattering Bei Yutang, Li Mengmeng’s expression grew increasingly grim.
She couldn’t help but say, “Food isn’t judged by its appearance; you have to taste it to know if it’s good or not.”
Upon hearing Li Mengmeng’s words, Dr. Zhang, to avoid further argument, immediately interjected, “This dish looks quite good to me; it shouldn’t be bad.”
Feng Qing, the most impatient of them all, plopped down, picked up his chopsticks, and grabbed a piece of fish.
“Why all the talk? Just try it, and you’ll know.”
He swallowed the fish in one bite, and the next second, his eyes narrowed slightly.
After swallowing the fish, Feng Qing exclaimed, “Delicious!”
Dr. Zhang and Yan Jin also took a bite, and both gave Bei Yutang a thumbs up.
Li Mengmeng, unconvinced, picked up a piece of fish, ate it, and immediately fell silent.
Everyone enjoyed the meal, except for one person.
Li Mengmeng refused to admit her culinary skills, maintaining a sour face throughout.
The others noticed but pretended not to.
Bei Yutang completely ignored her presence. Actually, she didn’t understand what she had done to offend her so quickly. Perhaps this was simply her true nature.
After dinner, Yan Jin suggested, “We’ve gathered all the tools we could find in the West Hall. How about we go check out the East Hall?”
Bei Yutang’s heart skipped a beat: “Let’s not go to the East Hall.”
Li Mengmeng immediately jumped in: “Why can’t we go to the East Hall?”
Dr. Zhang and Yan Jin both looked at her, waiting for her to explain.
Bei Yutang couldn’t tell them that it was Butler Sen who suggested it. Of course, even if she did, it would probably only make them more eager to enter the East Hall.
The East Hall made her feel very uncomfortable.
“Li Mengmeng and I went to the East Hall last time. It’s the private forbidden area of the castle’s owner. I think it’s best we don’t go in. Besides, I don’t think that place is very safe.”
Li Mengmeng scoffed, “I think you’re scared, aren’t you? If you ask me, the vampire might be in the East Hall. If we find him first, we can deal with him then.”
“Vampires are just our speculation. Whether they actually exist is unknown. If they do exist, can you guarantee that you’ll be the ones to destroy him, not the other way around?”
“Furthermore, if there are no vampires in the world, and we trespass on the castle owner’s private territory, we won’t fare well if he investigates. For whatever reason, I suggest we stay in the West Hall.”
