As expected, the festival was filled with people and buzzing with their excited conversations. Liu Jinfei and Lin Xiao were both surprised when they saw where the competition would take place.
A huge pavilion that sat near the lake housed several cooking stations in its open area. According to He Haotian, this was the same place where Lu Xinyi and Shen Yi competed when they acquired the Grace Palace Restaurant for the first time.
Shen Lingqing didn't say anything about it and had joined her Grandpa He and Uncle Huang in the audience while waiting for the competition to start. She was sandwiched between the two men, forbidding anyone to take advantage of their Little Qingqing who was definitely not so little anymore.
"Do you really have to accompany me here?" Shen Lingqing asked the two.
"Hey. It's not like we didn't trust you, Qingqing. We just don't trust people who covet after you," Huang Shenghao said in defense.
