"Senior Brother's cooking tastes even better; the eggplant skin stays crispy. Master Ma's version is more satisfying with rice because that's exactly how the school cafeteria prepares it."
Heh... You don't offend either side; you really are a master of diplomacy. If you spoke like this to your future in-laws, you wouldn't always be on the verge of getting beaten up... Lin Xu silently ridiculed his girlfriend for a moment before turning to Xie Baomin and asking, "Senior Brother, you can try again when you get home tonight. If that doesn't work out, we can send Master Ma over. I refuse to believe he can't outperform a middle school cafeteria's head cook."
Xie Baomin had let go of his regret by then. At least, when he faced him using the Cooking Learning Card now, he wouldn't see any more angry Skill prompts.
