"Is that even edible? Sigh... Never mind, let's just call the chef."
The gentleman sighed helplessly, regretting his decision to trust Xiao Yi's cooking skills.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yi asked in confusion, "Is it just because it looks a bit off? Is that reason enough to reject it?"
"It's not just about the looks!" the gentleman said helplessly. "It's awful in every aspect!"
"...I thought I did pretty well." Xiao Yi muttered softly, feeling a bit resentful after his hard work had been so bluntly dismissed.
So, Xiao Yi added, "Fine, I'll just make something simpler then."
"Simpler food?"
"Yes, fried food," Xiao Yi said. "As long as it's food, just dip it in egg wash, bread it, and fry it in oil. The taste won't be too bad, one could say it's a skill with very low technical content."
"...Indeed."
The gentleman thought so too, especially since Xiao Yi had specified it had to be food, not just anything.
