"Really? I don't believe you."
Faced with Lu Yu's classic question, Ji Youyou froze for a second but quickly composed herself.
Before coming on the show, Ji Youyou had specifically researched Appointment Today and was aware of Lu Yu's signature question.
She didn't explain. Instead, she countered with a question of her own, "Teacher Lu, I heard that to maintain your figure, you usually only eat seven grains of rice per meal?"
Lu Yu clearly hadn't expected the topic to turn to her, but with her rich hosting experience, she went along with it. "Haha, there was a time when that was the case."
"Well, would you like to try some of this?" Ji Youyou opened a thermal container, spooned some rice into a small bowl, and handed it to her. "A few more grains of rice won't ruin your diet plan, will they?"
The live audience let out good-natured laughter.
At the same time, an alluring aroma of rice began to spread.
The audience was too far away to smell it.
