"Alright, you go out too," Gu Chen said to Old Yuan at that moment.
Upon hearing Gu Chen's words, Old Yuan was momentarily stunned.
He had not expected Gu Chen would also ask him to leave.
"Ah, is that necessary?"
He didn't quite understand why Gu Chen acted this way.
"Absolutely necessary, hurry up and go. I like to be in peace and alone when I cook," Gu Chen said, casually citing a reason that even sounded a bit lame.
Old Yuan sighed after hearing this, but in the end, he respected Gu Chen's wishes and went out directly.
Once everyone had left, Gu Chen calmed his mind and hurriedly fetched some Spiritual Spring water.
What dish should he make? Gu Chen hadn't really decided, but he felt it should be something simple.
Bringing out something like cola chicken wings didn't seem appropriate, as not everyone might accept it, even though it could pass as a snack.
If it was like a competition, then he should make dishes that cater to the masses' taste.
