"Wow, so delicious..."
As soon as the dish entered her mouth, it was still Ding Chuchu who cried out first. Then she looked at Secretary Tang, embarrassed, and whispered, "It's much more delicious than what the auntie makes at home..."

Ding Chuchu grew up in the United States. Although her grandmother had specially hired a few skilled chefs from China to cook for her, she was still abroad, and perhaps the flavors were alright when she was young, but gradually, even the dishes at Chinese restaurants became Americanized.
She hadn't been back in the country long, and Vice Governor Ding, being a high-ranking provincial official, certainly didn't have time to cook for her, so a nanny was arranged to take care of her. The nanny's cooking wasn't bad, but in comparison, there was a much bigger gap.
