The Cheat Emperor of the Culinary World

Chapter 348: Chapter 347: Find a Few Shills to Go on Stage

Fu Yu, Li Linfeng, and everyone present turned to look.

Qi Shun was already standing, smiling as he looked at the stage.

In front of everyone, Zhao Bingbing waved with a smile, ”Alright, come on up, I’ve never enjoyed live accompaniment before.”

It was only then that everyone realized Qi Shun had already prepared. Under everyone’s gaze, he picked up a guitar from beside his chair and confidently walked toward the stage.

Fu Yu couldn’t help but look at Li Linfeng.

Li Linfeng’s expression was stiff, yet he maintained a certain grace and didn’t make any sarcastic remarks, simply keeping his eyes glued to the stage.

The beautiful chords he imagined did not materialize.

From the moment Qi Shun stepped onto the stage, he was already strumming a very strong ”Thunk, Thunk” accompaniment as he walked up.

Fu Yu didn’t understand music. He thought Qi Shun was planning to liven up the atmosphere first, and once he was on stage, he would switch to a song’s intro that matched the accompaniment.

That way, Zhao Bingbing could naturally start singing along with the music.

But Qi Shun unexpectedly kept playing that rhythm from start to finish, without a single chord Fu Yu recognized.

Zhao Bingbing was truly very graceful.

Even though the accompaniment was practically non-existent, she persisted in singing a whole song a cappella.

And the most bewildering part was that at the end of the music, he actually sidled up next to Zhao Bingbing and started singing along.

The applause below was enthusiastic; everyone was caught up in the festive atmosphere of the celebration. As for the performance on stage, it was all for fun; nobody really cared much about how well they sang or the quality of the accompaniment.

Fu Yu also joined in with vigorous applause.

But at the same time, he formed a somewhat negative impression of Qi Shun.

He thought, this was someone who was all show and no substance.

Fu Yu couldn’t play the guitar, but he felt that mastering any instrument was like honing one’s culinary skills.

Without long hours of hard practice, it’s impossible to play moving melodies.

Qi Shun was basically just keeping time with the guitar.

Not at all matching the melody variations of the song.

This flashy and seemingly cool style, anybody with long fingers could pull it off.

It was nothing more than keeping rhythm with the same moves.

To Fu Yu, Qi Shun was merely using the guitar as a prop to draw attention.

Just wanting to emphasize his presence.

After the celebration, everyone moved on to a different venue.

The previously spacious campus had already been set up as a bustling food street.

Students from different departments, led by their teachers, set up various stalls.

Showcasing their culinary skills honed at school to family members attending the school celebration and new students visiting the campus.

There were no tables or chairs in front of the stalls; everyone was moving around as they visited.

There were too many people; you could sample tastes, but you couldn’t linger at any one stall for too long.

Everyone had just been revved up by the performance, and now it was lunchtime, so they began browsing the stalls, choosing foods that interested them to taste.

The atmosphere on the playground was both lively and chaotic for a time.

Fu Yu, along with Li Linfeng and Zhao Bingbing, blended into the crowd.

After tasting a few foods, when Fu Yu was about to head to the next stall, Li Linfeng suddenly called out to him.

Holding a phone, Li Linfeng said urgently, ”Quick, Director Chen wants Bingbing to go to the performance stage now, you come with us!”

The performance stage was set up in the northwest corner of the playground, with the practical teaching building behind it.

When they arrived, several teachers had already gathered, enthusiastically crowding around Director Chen, offering suggestions.

Director Chen spotted Zhao Bingbing jogging over and quickly waved, ”Teacher Zhao, you’re just in time!”

Fu Yu, following Li Linfeng, squeezed to the front as well.

Director Chen anxiously asked, ”Teacher Zhao, do you know how to make walnut buns?”

Zhao Bingbing was taken aback, nodding, ”I know.”

Qiu Jingxiu was supposed to do a live demonstration today, cooking walnut buns for all the students, teachers, and parents, right?

Director Chen said straight out, ”If Teacher Qiu does live guidance, can you make them?”

Zhao Bingbing was dumbfounded, having her make them?

She had only heard of walnut buns, never seen them, let alone made them.
