"Time!"
"Temperature!"
Xia Yu had no time to think about anything else, fully focused as she constantly monitored the five casseroles on the stove.
Moments later, wisps of smoke simultaneously appeared from all five pots!
"Add mung beans to the pot on the far right!"
Silently reciting the next steps, she operated ambidextrously, one hand lifting the scalding hot lid while the other grabbed a plate filled with crushed mung beans.
Clack!
The lid closed, the stove's flames continued to sear the casseroles.
"Put the pumpkin in the middle pot!"
"Pine nuts go in the far left one!"
"Longan, second pot from the left!"
Xia Yu, alone, was a blur of motion at the kitchen counter, lifting lids and pouring ingredients, and without even catching her breath, moved on to the next step. She opened four pots and added mung beans, pumpkin, pine nuts, and longan, which all together took…
Ten seconds!
And that was just barely passing!
