Chapter 191

"Selina, what seasoning do you use? Can I have a taste?" It was not just greed. As a chef, Lance was very curious about how Selina had prepared the braised salmon. The aroma was incredibly enticing. Selina smiled slightly. "Have a taste, Mr. Hilcast. Lydia and I exceeded our task quota today, so there's plenty of ingredients."

Lydia protested, "Ah, Selina...".

"Don't worry, Lydia. While we're on this variety show, I'll be cooking every day. I'll make sure there's enough for you. Just relax," Selina assured her.

Lydia faked sobbing. It was not that Lydia was stingy, but when it came to Selina's cooking, Lydia could eat it all. Normally, she was not picky about food, but when it came to Selina's dishes, they were too precious! "You can only have one bite, Mr. Hilcast," Lydia said cautiously, looking at Lance. She had struggled internally before reluctantly agreeing.

"Brat, you're being ridiculous. I'm not going to eat it all, am I?" Lance could not help but laugh, thinking Lydia seemed like a cool and sharp-tongued sister. Yet, when it came to food, she was surprisingly adorable.

He picked up the clean chopsticks Selina had prepared and took a bite, savoring it carefully. His eyes immediately lit up as he took a second bite, this time with the seasoning Selina had mixed in. It tasted even better!

After the first and second bites, his instincts drove him to reach for a third. But Lydia protectively snatched the braised salmon away. "Mr. Hilcast! We agreed on one bite, and now you're on your third!"

Lance snapped back to reality. "Oh, sorry about that. It's just so delicious. I couldn't help myself. Selina, your seasoning and the way you control the heat are spot on. The salmon is tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. I've been cooking for years, and I can't make something- that tastes like this. Who taught you?"

Selina replied, "I taught myself through videos and books. It just took time and a lot of trial
