Seeing Lu Jincheng spouting nonsense with a straight face, Ji Yao almost died laughing.
How could he... be so funny.
Going on about some past friendship, as if there's such a thing as a free lunch!
Lu Jincheng was making excuses, but he wasn't even trying to make a good excuse.
Ji Yao could only turn her face away, lest she give away her urge to snicker. Nevertheless, she nearly couldn't help grinning.
In the end, she replied while laughing.
"Oh, I see, it seems that these chefs are indeed very loyal and sentimental..."
Toward the end, she nearly lost it, struggling to continue speaking.
If she said any more, she would have burst into laughter.
Ji Yao looked away and took several deep breaths to suppress her emotions.
Holding back her urge to laugh, she didn't look at Jincheng but asked the group of clearly puzzled high-class chefs instead.
"You all seem to have a good relationship with Boss Lu, willingly coming to help for free; I truly appreciate it!"
