"Dude, what dish did you cook to get ten red cards? That's awesome!" Zhang Luyu exclaimed.
"Eggplant with green beans, just a simple home-cooked dish," Jiang Feng said. He, too, hadn't expected to get ten red cards.
It seemed that all ten of the lay judges had good taste!

After Jiang Feng, there was only a married office worker named He Ling who had received eight red cards. Zhang Luyu could talk, and he was especially sociable. At first, Jiang Feng thought Zhang Luyu spoke so much because they were alumni, but then he realized that Zhang Luyu was talkative with everyone. If someone engaged him, he could find topics to chat about, and it was as if he saw everyone as an old classmate he hadn't met in years. He could seamlessly switch topics and casually call people 'dude,' 'girl,' or 'sister' after just a couple of sentences.
