Looking at Ye Xieren and Lu Xinyi, Qin Jiahao thought that it was the same thing all over again. During his stay at Silver Leaf, he had competed not only with He Haotian but also with Lu Sibai. The two had made it hard for him to get the first seat and was stuck in third place.
Lu Xinyi's confident smile and the defiant glint in her eyes reminded him so much of Lu Sibai. If this woman was Lu Sibai's daughter, then Ye Xieren would indeed have a hard time beating her. If she was anything like her father, she must also know how to use her palate to her own advantage.
The three judges were left to discuss privately who won the first round. Qin Jiahao and He Haotian pointed out the flaws and the strong points of each dish presented to them.
"Both Ye Xieren and Lu Xinyi made their dishes in the same cooking method, the distinct difference between them is the flavor," Chef Qin whispered to He Haotian and Han Zhiling.
