"Alright, the first round of cooking is over," the judge announced as he stepped forward to host. "Now, it's time to score."
"Sister Zhao and Xiao Lang Gou received 8.5 points, the ordinary couple got 7.8 points, Chu Xinran and Ye Wen scored 9.2 points, while Chen Xiaohui and Old Li received 6.5 points."
Chen Xiaohui's eyes widened in disbelief. "Judge, why did we get such a low score?"
The judge smiled gently. "Because cooking is not just about the food itself. More importantly, it's about interaction and the emotional value you provide to each other."
"For instance, Chu Xinran and Ye Wen, although they only made a simple salmon rice dish, their interaction in the kitchen was very sweet. Ye Wen not only had to handle the ingredients but also made sure to include Chu Xinran, which added fun to the cooking process and made it far from monotonous."
"Moreover, even though Chu Xinran doesn't know how to cook, she understands how to provide emotional support by complimenting Ye Wen. In contrast, Old Li and Chen Xiaohui had no interaction at all; there was even a sense of tension between them."
"Old Li may be a great cook, but he always pushes Chen Xiaohui away. Although she wants to help, she feels sidelined."
"As a husband, you should make your wife feel needed rather than pushing her away. While you prepared a lavish banquet, it still lacked the warmth of home."
Listening to the judge's words made me feel so ashamed that I almost wanted to slap myself.
After all, Ye Wen and I weren't a real couple, so much of our interaction on the show was merely out of politeness and courtesy.
We initially thought it was just a formality, but unexpectedly, we ended up taking first place.
I truly didn't see that coming...
Meanwhile, the comments were flooding in—
"Help! How did the judge get so invested?"
"Listen to what they’re saying."
"Chu Xinran is so lucky!"
"Old Ye is way too indulgent!"
"Chu Xinran must have saved the entire universe in her past life!"
"Old Ye, look at me!"
"Get lost, everyone in front! Old Ye is mine!"
After that, the judge added, "I hope you can achieve even better results in the next round."
"Today's first place goes to Chu Xinran and Ye Wen, and the prize is ten thousand yuan."
In the afternoon, the event organizers took us to a shopping mall for some free time.
Chen Xiaohui insisted on dragging me along to shop, claiming she wanted to show me her new bag.
As soon as she entered, she headed straight for LV.
I leisurely followed behind.
Old Li and Ye Wen followed behind us, carrying bags.
Chen Xiaohui held up a piece of clothing against herself and asked, "How about this one?"
I shook my head. "I don't know."
She picked up another one. "What about this?"
"I don't know," I replied.
Reluctantly, she went to try them on.
I sat on the sofa, scrolling through my phone.
Ye Wen came over and sat down next to me. "Do you want to try something on?"
I shook my head. "I don't have any money."
He pulled out a card and handed it to me. "Here, go spend this."
I frowned. "Why are you giving me your card?"
"Don't want it?" He raised an eyebrow. "If you don't, then forget it."
I snatched the card from him. "Who said I didn't want it?"
"But you said you have no money," he frowned.
"I'm poor, but that doesn't mean I can't spend," I shot back at him.
Ye Wen looked at me helplessly.
I pouted, "I don't have any money, but I can use your card."
Chen Xiaohui, overhearing our conversation, walked over and said, "Chu Xinran, a woman should treat herself better. What's wrong with buying a few designer items?"
"Designer items aren't that expensive."
I pressed my lips together in silence.
She rolled her eyes at me. "Chu Xinran, don't you feel embarrassed wearing those cheap knockoffs?"
I frowned. "I think it's fine. As long as it's comfortable to wear, right?"
She stared at me wide-eyed. "How can it be comfortable? You know that in today's society, designer brands are a symbol of a woman's status."
"You can't just wear cheap stuff even if you have money!"
"Besides, a woman should treat herself better!"
