It was not only the netizens who felt dumbfounded but all of the staff members as well.

Li Jianyu was the first to react, gesturing to the cameramen to face the lens toward Xiang Yi.

Inside the kitchen, a slender and delicate girl had a bowl in one arm and a wooden spoon in the other, wearing a simple white T-shirt and wide-legged jeans. The top was cropped, revealing milky white skin underneath.

Her hair was in a messy bun and had two daisy shaped barrettes in it, seeming playful and cute.

However, her demeanor was calm and steady, radiating an aura of comfort and gentleness.

The live comments immediately changed:

[Ahhh! Pretty lady, oh yes!!]

[Those hair clips are adorable, and her outfit is so pretty, please post links!]

[F*ck, I can't roast her, how could you not forgive such a pretty face!!]

After sneaking a glimpse at the live comments, Li Jianyu breathed a sigh of relief.

He couldn't help but admit that Xiang Yi's appearance was admirable. And everyone who had seen her good looks all felt obliged to be more accepting of her.

Xiang Yi noticed that nobody had moved, then, feeling puzzled, she asked "No one's eating? My food should taste okay."

It was not until after everyone had calmed down did they begin to notice the fragrant aroma coming from the kitchen.

"Gulp."

People began to swallow down their saliva.

In preparation for the livestream, most of the staff had casually grabbed a few bites of breakfast. They didn't notice their hunger amid the tight work schedule, but now, the fragrance had induced their hunger all at once.

"What did you make that smells so good?" Shi Sui asked. He had a strong aura and it instantly brought the show's rhythm back on track.

As if they'd awakened from a dream, the group swarmed the kitchen.

The kitchen appliances were exquisitely organized, completely subverting everyone's impression of a traditional Chinese kitchen.

Occupying all three stoves in the kitchen were clay pots on low heat, releasing dense steam.

"Claypot seafood congee. Want some?" Xiang Yi opened the lid and the aroma dominated everyone's senses, several times more powerful than before.

Once the steam dissipated, the cameramen stepped forward with their HD lens and broadcasted the scene in front of them to the netizens in real time.

The rice had been boiled to a soft and sticky state, the whites of the grains crystal clear. The substance was decorated with shiitake mushrooms, scallops, crab meat, shrimp, peas, and corn kernels. The fire was still blazing as the porridge gurgled with small bubbles. The fragrant aroma of rice could almost be smelled through the screen.

[She's back she's back, she's back again to hype up her 'foodie' persona]

[Obviously, a chef had prepped it and she's just posing, how could an idol know how to cook]

[Let's look at the facts, I'm really hungry This congee looks too appetizing!]

Xiang Yi filled up a bowl and naturally handed it in a particular direction

The live comments became livid with hate once again.

[Trying to make gossip with Shi Yingdi again? At least check your status before you even try!]

The next second...

The camera zoomed out to capture the whole scene.

Xiang Yi handed the porridge toward her own manager.

The netizens: What's going on? Shouldn't the first bowl of congee go to my Shi Sui-gege?!

The next, next second...

Xiang Yi filled up a second and a third bowl and handed them over to Li Jianyu behind the camera and the cameraman.

The netizens: What the hell? She won't even give the second or third bowl to our Shi Sui-gege?!

This woman, you have successfully piqued our interest!!!

The next, next, next second.

A young, renowned gentleman of an actor in a white shirt acted on his own accord and filled a bowl of congee for himself. Without changing his expression, he said to the camera:

"It smells great. You guys can't taste it, so I'll try it for you."

Netizens: ???????
