章 493: Trouble in Paradise (1)

"Ye Xieren didn't stand a chance against Lu Xinyi. This is surprising."

"I've always thought that Ye Xieren will lead this year's junior division, not that he would become a shadow of Lu Xinyi. Even Yan Chen has a hard time getting rid of her from the competition."

"But to think that she repeatedly beat them still leaves me speechless…"

"For her to be able to beat Ye Xieren in his specialty… just what kind of monster is she?"

This kind of talk wasn't lost to Ye Xieren. The frustration in his heart continued to rise as people started to doubt his ability in the kitchen. If he couldn't beat Lu Xinyi, then how was he supposed to challenge the other top students at this rate?

His body trembled as he lowered his head. Tears started to brim in his eyes as his emotions started to get the best of him.

"Stop."

Lu Xinyi's voice startled him, making him look back at her with wide eyes.
