Chapter 14 Don’t fight an unprepared battle
With a "click", the five people stood on the top of the mountain with their backs to the rolling green mountains behind them, smiling at the camera.
After the staff member in charge of taking pictures made an 'OK' gesture to the guests, he couldn't help but look down at the photos he had just taken.
Before taking the photo, even though Jiang Lingxi was standing in the C position this time, when he thought about it, the one with the stronger aura should be the actress She Man, followed by Xu Yin.
But now when he looked at the photo, he only had one feeling.
It seems that Jiang Lingxi should stand in the center of the crowd. If she is moved to the edge, it will feel awkward.
After taking the photo, Lin Xuefei almost couldn't wait to leave where she was. Seeing that Jiang Lingxi was still standing in the middle, she was a little jealous and a little sarcastic.
She Man just gave him a hand, and this person really felt at ease and stood in the middle. He didn't even give in, and directly let the more famous movie queen and singer accompany him.
When the photos are released, she wants to see if Jiang Lingxi will be ridiculed again. At least the label of arrogance will definitely be slapped on her.
From yesterday's meeting to now, Jiang Lingxi has clearly seen the other four guests.
Actress She Man and singer Xu Yin have been in the entertainment industry for the longest time and have deep enough seniority to be able to take root and still maintain a certain degree of popularity. They are both good people and can never make mistakes easily.
Lin Xuefei's cultivation level is not that good in comparison. She can't hide some small thoughts at all. Compared with the previous two seniors, she still has room for learning.
As for Jiang Kaiyuan, she can see through it at a glance.
She Man just suddenly asked her to stand in the C position when taking pictures. Maybe she was really grateful for her help in finding the ingredient card, but she also wanted to consider her.
Normal people would usually choose to be humble when faced with this kind of situation. If it were the original person's character, they would definitely accept it without thinking.
She is exercising restraint by not grabbing the C position. There is no reason to give back when others have given in.
However, this time Jiang Lingxi did not follow the normal approach. She has never been someone who is willing to wrong herself.
The previous apology was for the original person, and it was also a temporary measure for her.
This time she didn't do anything wrong. Instead, she helped other guests, so she deserves the C position at all.
After taking the photo, Jiang Lingxi was sensitive to the fact that She Man and Xu Yin were a little more distant from her. Perhaps her reaction this time was the same as before, which surprised them.
But she didn't really care.
The intimacy in front of the camera is fake to begin with. When the recording is over, it is not certain whether they will work together again in the future.
Lin Xuefei also turned a blind eye with a mocking look in her eyes. As long as this person didn't dance in front of her, she could block any look.
It's like she never even read the words on the Internet that criticized the original person and are now criticizing her.
As for Jiang Kaiyuan, who still looked so careless, he was already cheering that he could finally go down the mountain.
Going down the mountain is fairly easy.
It took more than an hour to walk up the mountain and rest. Everyone didn't stop on the way down the mountain. It took less than half an hour to reach the bottom of the mountain in one go.
Walking back to the small country villa, none of them even bothered to change their clothes. They all sat on the sofa and didn't want to move.
If the staff hadn't rushed us, we would have been able to sit there until lunch time.
After going back to the room to simply wash up and change into clean clothes, it's time to exchange ingredients.
Jiang Lingxi received flour, sugar, eggs, cream, fruits and other ingredients for making cakes.
Others took their own ingredient cards and received their own ingredients.
Just putting it on the table, Jiang Lingxi saw that there were at least twice as many ingredients in front of her as the others, and she couldn't help but pursed her lips.
From the looks of it, the food she is going to make next should be the most difficult.
Jiang Kaiyuan couldn't wait to carry his plate of fruit into the kitchen. He wanted to make fruit salad, which was the simplest. He couldn't wait to show off his skills.
Lin Xuefei came in next. To make sushi, she had to steam the rice first. The rest could be rolled up and eaten directly, which was pretty simple.
Then She Man and Xu Yin also came in together. What they were doing was not too difficult. She Man made sandwiches and Xu Yin made homemade drinks. They got started quickly after entering the kitchen.
It was just that the four of them were busy. While Lin Xuefei was letting the steamed rice cool, she glanced at the three busy people beside her and frowned, "Where's Jiang Lingxi?"
Sheman took out the freshly fried eggs and looked back towards the living room after hearing the sound. She saw Jiang Lingxi looking at a lot of ingredients on the coffee table with a mobile phone in her hand, and her brows furrowed.
Lin Xuefei looked back, lowered her voice but kept it at a volume that was just right for the radio to receive, "Is Jiang Lingxi just trying to mess it up?"
"Even if it doesn't taste good, we all know it's her first time, so she won't say anything!"
Zhao Hengsheng, who was sitting behind the camera at the moment, put the drinking cup on the table and said, "We are shooting on the move, zoom in and see what Jiang Lingxi is looking at!"
There has to be a limit to your willfulness. The previous part of the mountain climbing was fine, except for the one where you might get scolded when you stand in position C to take pictures.
It’s only been half a day and you can’t pretend anymore?
Then he thinks a little too highly of this girl!
The camera zoomed in obediently, but the moment it was about to focus on the phone screen, the phone screen suddenly went black.
Jiang Lingxi looked back at the staff member who quietly came over. She didn't say a word, but the staff member subconsciously took two steps back and didn't dare to turn on the phone again.
When Jiang Lingxi walked to the kitchen with the ingredients on the table, he patted his heart with a free hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
Oh my god, I scared him to death!
In the kitchen, when she saw Jiang Lingxi coming in, Lin Xuefei, who originally thought she would show off to the end, turned her back to the camera and pouted, while speeding up the movements of her hands.
She had to finish her work quickly and go out, so as to save time and stay to watch Jiang Lingxi's cooking show.
When she lowered her head and carefully cut a sushi roll and prepared to plate it, she realized that the kitchen was a little quiet.
I looked up and saw Jiang Lingxi opposite, making dough for cakes.
Add water, stir, knead the dough, add ingredients, meticulously.
But just looking at it, it feels a bit familiar.
Until Sheman suddenly said: "Xiao Xi's technique looks very professional!"
Lin Xuefei suddenly came back to her senses. As an artist, it was difficult for her to eat cakes and other foods, but she was craving for this, so she liked to watch short videos of making cakes on her mobile phone.
As for Jiang Lingxi's current movements, not only are they exactly the same as those in the short video, they are just copied.
The key point is that others would usually be in a hurry the first time they do it, and they would even put the wrong materials or put less materials when they are busy, but Jiang Lingxi gave her the feeling that she had done it thousands of times.
"You, you just..."
Isn’t it just a matter of watching the tutorial on how to make small cakes while watching the mobile phone?
No way, right?
She would rather believe that Jiang Lingxi had done it before than believe that this person could do it so well the first time!
Putting the prepared bread dough into the steaming oven, Jiang Lingxi followed the steps and started to beat the cream in an orderly manner. By the way, she also put some chocolate to relieve the sweetness. She broke Lin Xuefei's belief by saying, "It's the first time to make it.
Get lessons online.”
This is called not fighting an unprepared battle.
When he saw with his own eyes a small cake that was no different from what he saw in ordinary videos taking shape under his eyes, and even the decoration on it was perfectly matched, Xu Yin couldn't help but pinch some leftovers and taste them, and then looked a little complicated.
He looked over and said: "Xiao Xi, is this really your first time making a cake?"
This was so embarrassing for her, who once almost tortured and cried the pastry chef she hired in order to learn how to make cakes!
