Futuristic Gourmet’s Spoiled Marriage

 

The New Student Cup Supplementary Therapy Contest is jointly organized by the three sub-platforms of Star Network Merchant Alliance.

The first few days of the preliminary competition were also when the auxiliary therapy competition was the most lax, so the contestants were able to produce so much drama.

The official hosting platform of the auxiliary therapy competition did not intervene because an event without any drama would not attract the attention and enthusiasm of the audience.

It was only on the last half-day of the voting period that the organizers would formally come forward and thoroughly investigate the data of all participants.

As for those who got more exposure in the early days, those who are really capable can rise in ranks, and those who do not have the strength will drop in ranks sooner or later. The early popularity is just a flash in the pan.

To put it bluntly, faking votes can also be a method of self-hype and marketing, which the organizer tacitly approves.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. It is not enough for auxiliary therapists to rely solely on their skills. They also must learn to self-package themselves. Everyone understands that this is the case in this circle. The platform is fair, but there will also be many unfair competition methods. Absolute fairness does not exist.

If someone else helped to cheat, only the fake votes would be cleaned up in the end. There will be no penalties.

But suppose there is conclusive evidence that the contestants cheated and faked the votes themselves. In that case, a yellow card will be issued, and 30% of the votes will be deducted.

If there is conclusive evidence that a contestant was framed by others, a red card will be issued, and 50% of the votes will be deducted.

There are very little false data that can really escape the thorough official investigation at the end.

But many people still get lucky.

Jiang Yanqiao was not 100% sure about the data forged by the internal staff that she bribed. She was only hoped to rely on the number one position for a few days to gain greater exposure for her food. If she can win first place with her strength, the evidence of her falsifying data will not be found by anyone.

Jiang Yanqiao's fake votes continuously suppressed Ling Yaoyao's ranking for three days. Before, Ling Yaoyao had something in her heart and was not in the mood to care about Jiang Yanqiao.

Now, if she bears it any longer, she would shame her previous reputation of the arrogant young lady!

Without Brother Lu Lin around, Ling Yaoyao went directly to the organizer of the auxiliary therapy competition.

She doesn't know the person in charge of the organizer, but she knows Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi is the youngest son of Xingtao, one of the Star Network Merchants, chairman Yun Zhe. Xingtao's current president, Yun Li, is Xiao Qi's eldest brother!

At the beginning of the competition, Xiao Qi asked Ling Yaoyao whether she wanted to advertise that the food she cooks is particularly effective for people with mental damage to hype her up.

At that time, Ling Yaoyao's answer was "No."

It was rare for someone so young, such as Xiao Qi, to suffer from mental impairment.

Most mentally damaged people are relatively older. They have experienced battlefields and injuries that lead to mental impairment. Their lives are very quiet and low-key. They rely on stable and cooperative food therapists or supplementary food shops to relieve their pain. They would never go to the Star Network to try the supplementary foods made by new students.

Therefore, not many people know that supplementary food made by Ling Yaoyao is particularly effective for people with mental damage, or even that it allows people with mental impairment to slowly recover their spiritual level.

Ling Yaoyao didn't regard this point as the main selling point of her supplementary food.

Before, it was famous mainly because of the ancient Chinese cuisine style.

In the past, Ling Yaoyao felt that her current strength was still too low and her ability was limited.

But now, Ling Yaoyao doesn't think so. Since everyone wants to engage in marketing, then she will do it too!

Jiang Yanqiao can boast that her food is more exquisitely presented, and it can be used as the main selling point. The supplementary food she makes is delicious and effective, and it is particularly effective for people with mental disabilities. Why not promote it?

If a mentally impaired person is seriously ill and is on the verge of a breakdown, if they know about her special ability and come to her for some supplementary foods, maybe it will not lead to a breakdown!

If someone is in mania and on the verge of being mentally crippled, maybe eat a few more supplementary foods made by her on the star network, and he will not be mentally disabled!

Only by letting everyone know about her abilities, then will more people will speak for her. If no one sees her skill, she has to stay below Jiang Yanqiao and let her number of votes rise again.

As for Jiang Yanqiao's false data, it will be beaten back to its original number sooner or later!

As a victim suppressed by Jiang Yanqiao, she certainly hopes it will be sooner!

Ling Yaoyao directly contacted Xiao Qi and said two things:

First, she wants to buy the top advertisement place on the shopping platform's official website for two days. She wants to promote that the supplementary food she has made is particularly effective for people with mental impairments. Since she wants to be number one, she must convince everyone!

Second, she hopes that organizers of the auxiliary therapy competition will check Jiang Yanqiao's data now. If Jiang Yanqiao has the absolute strength to win over her, such obvious falsification for a few days will be enough to advertise her food instead to keep pressing on her. If Jiang Yanqiao took first place in the end, she would directly refuse to participate in the next round of semi-finals!

If the official website of the auxiliary therapy contest cannot find an abnormality, she would laugh. Without that level of technical support, don't hold any auxiliary therapy contest. Anyone can be shady, but trying to press on the champion, Miss Ling, is absolutely impossible. Does she look like someone easy to bully?

Even though she once said that she would win first place in the Student Cup Supplementary Therapy Contest and justifiably worship Old Cai as a teacher. However, even if she fails to get first, Old Cai cannot give her up and instead take Jiang Yanqiao as a disciple. Mr. Cai is not blind!

Ling Yaoyao can only serve dozens or hundreds of virtual supplementary foods at the "Ancient Chinese Gourmet House" at a time. So even if the shopping platform officially refuses to recommend her, she is not worried about selling her food. She will offer a reward for someone to try it. She doesn't care about money anyway.

But Xiao Qi didn't care about the small effort of putting Ling Yaoyao's shop in the number one recommended place on the shopping platform. It is nothing compared to her long-term provision of supplementary food to help him heal his incomplete spiritual realm.

 

Naturally, there is a price to pay for eating what she made!

Therefore, faced with Ling Yaoyao's request, Xiao Qi fully agreed. "Great aunt, don't worry. It's all covered by me! Don't worry about paying. This is win-win cooperation. Propaganda for you can also attract more people's attention to our family's shopping platform! Hey, you can think of me. If you don't need my support at all, I am afraid that someday I will be not pleasing to your eyes and you will not provide me with supplementary food anymore, then I will cry to death!"

He is not afraid of being used. What he fears the most is that he has no use-value.

Xiao Qi had always been cheeky to hook up with Ling Yaoyao. He had long been thinking about how to return the favor. Only a mutually beneficial relationship can be stable and long-lasting.

Ling Yaoyao looked at Xiao Qi's babble and said suspiciously, "Do your words have any weight in front of your brother? If you can't say it, then you can introduce me to him. I can just go and speak to him."

Although the Yun Family is known as the richest man in the Imperial Capital Star, that is just the outward appearance. Which military family is not more profound than the Yun Family?

After Ling Yaoyao came to this world, she never did anything to bully anyone. But it didn't mean that she was easy to bully, and she didn't have any temper.

Xiao Qi said sternly, "Don't worry. Don't look at my surname Xiao. My dad loves me more than my brother, and my brother loves me more than his girlfriend!"

Xiao Qi's mental power had problems back then because the brothers were kidnapped when they were young. The kidnappers wanted to kill Yun Li, but in order to protect his eldest brother, Xiao Qi forcibly exploded his spiritual realm in front of the kidnappers. He saved his eldest brother, but he himself fell into a mental incompleteness, and his spiritual realm almost collapsed completely.

Yun Li has always felt guilty about his brother's mental damage.

Before, Xiao Qi thought he would wait until his mental power rose to C-level and then give his eldest brother a surprise. He never told the family that his mental power had changed from D to D+. Now it's okay to tell them in advance. If Yun Li knew that Ling Yaoyao could heal his disability, let alone this small favor, he would be willing to give away his wealth.

So, just after Jiang Yanqiao stayed on the top rank for three days, at noon on the eighth day, even though the official clearly hadn't reached the stage of the final thorough investigation, but her votes suddenly plummeted, and she was beaten back to her original numbers!

Because she occupied first place in three days and has a super high exposure, Jiang Yanqiao's real votes became fifth, barely surpassing Ling Yaoyao's dessert. This is because desserts are relatively not loved by too many people—especially male combatants, which did not even try it.

The official reason is that due to a mistake in a certain internal staff member's work, the data of a certain contestant's entry in the previous three days have been calculated wrongly. The number of new votes will be calculated as three votes... Now the real data has been restored, and the certain staff member has been fired and will never be re-hired.

The auxiliary therapy competition official did not find direct evidence that Jiang Yanqiao bribed the staff member, so Jiang Yanqiao was not given a yellow card, nor was she named in the official announcement.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the data began to explode three days ago, but the only one who was beaten back to its original number today is Jiang Yanqiao from the food therapy group.

Although there is no evidence, everyone can see that this was most likely made by Jiang Yanqiao herself. The posts that Jiang Yanqiao bought to tout her work have now become ironclad evidence. Everyone ridiculed and despised her for having inadequate strength and even falsified the votes.

 

When these things broke out, Jiang Yanqiao's votes turned upside down because before the final voting result came out, everyone had the right to withdraw their votes three times.

Su Qinghe's votes have also been cleaned up in advance. But even after the fake votes were cleaned up, she still ranks first, even though the data is not exaggerated to be illogical.

In the background, Zhao Mingru also began to slowly release evidence of how Su Qinghe was "maliciously slandered." But in order not to tear face with the Yan family, the evidence that exposed the identities of Yan Yifei and Wu Lili was all mosaics.

However, the copy which was sent to the official website of the auxiliary therapy contest and the mailbox of the Huanuo First Military Academy were not censored...

Yan Yifei and Wu Lili failed to steal the chicken but faced a red card issued by the auxiliary therapy competition platform and the punishment of the Huanuo First Military Academy.

Yan Yifei can still solve these problems by relying on her family background, but the number of votes she has actually gotten was halved. To avoid the shame of being officially issued a red card in the auxiliary therapy competition, they said that her votes were "faked."

Wu Lili was not so lucky. The bright red card revealed all her true colors, letting people know that she was a vicious villain who faked other people's votes behind their back.

Wu Lili, who had squeezed into the top 20 with her skill, was not only lost half of her votes because of the red card, but many people who originally supported her also canceled their votes.

"Shocked! Jiang Yanqiao, a genius food therapist girl, is suspected of bribing staff to fake her votes!"

"Two women framed Su Qinghe on New Student Cup. Other than Wu Lili, who is the other one?"

These are the hottest topics that everyone talks about now.

However, people in the Star Network are not concerned about those things, but another thing.

The most conspicuous recommended position on the official website of the shopping platform and the auxiliary therapy contest is actually displaying five familiar dishes!

The propaganda slogan is: "The supplementary food that can heal the incompleteness of spiritual realm!"

Attention. It is not to ease or soothe, but to "cure"!

Although this is an exaggerated term, long-term consumption does have this effect. Xiao Qi has personally verified it!

The auxiliary food on the official website of the auxiliary therapy competition platform adopts infinite replication technology, which can simulate the curative effect in reality with 99% accuracy.

After eating the supplementary food made by Ling Yaoyao, the mentally damaged people can clearly feel that the absorption effect is obviously ten times better than other supplementary foods!

Usually, the mentally damaged people can only absorb 1% to 5% at most, whether it is in reality or the supplementary food on the star network. The effect is extremely small.

However, in order to slightly relieve headaches and prevent further deterioration of their mental capacity, it is still necessary to insist on taking supplementary foods for a long time.

Eating supplementary food made by Ling Yaoyao does not cure people all at once. But the mentally damaged people who were attracted by this propaganda slogan have seen the hope of healing!

If it can be cured all at once, it will be unreliable. After all, everything should be done step by step.

Everyone was boiling all of a sudden. They all begged Ling Yaoyao to add new items to her "Ancient Chinese Gourmet House." They wanted to try the effects of her virtual supplementary foods themselves!

 

It would be great if they could also eat such supplementary foods in reality!

The mentally handicapped and the mentally broken are the people who must insist on eating supplementary foods for a long time. So no matter whether the supplementary food is delicious or not, they must eat them. They cannot be picky about the deliciousness. After all, for them eating is the same as taking medicine.

Today, however, they suddenly tasted foods that were much more delicious than ordinary foods but had a therapeutic effect that was ten times better than most supplementary foods!

Many mentally disabled people feel so happy that they want to cry! Not only because of the ultimate enjoyment of taste, but they finally see the hope of healing!

In order to verify that the announcement on the official website is not a false gimmick marketing, Ling Yaoyao not only added a new batch of auxiliary therapy foods in "Ancient Chinese Gourmet House," but also restricted the shopping platform to only sell to people with damaged spiritual domain based on the records in the archives. First-come, first-served, limited to one purchase per person.

Hundreds of test-takers took this opportunity. Although the curative effect was weakened in the Star Network, it also proved that the curative effect is really useful, not just a gimmick.

In addition, in reality, Ling Yaoyao also produced a batch of supplementary foods based on the five dishes entered on the Star Network. Twenty volunteers in the Imperial City Star who were mentally damaged were randomly selected by the official website of the auxiliary therapy competition. They will come to the Imperial Food Therapy Research Centre to participate in the tasting and give a post-eating testimonial.

Those selected volunteers felt extremely lucky. They all stated that the food made by Ling Yaoyao in reality was more delicious and effective than the ones they tried on Star Network. Most importantly, it was really 100% absorbed!

The top master food therapists at the Huanuo Empire Food Therapy Research Center envied and hated Mr. Cai, who had booked a genius therapist such as Ling Yaoyao as a direct disciple in advance.

Mr. Cai has been so glorified in these past two days. Not because of his own achievement as a master-level diet therapist, but because he is about to have an apprentice who is destined to surpass everyone!

Had it not been for Ling Yaoyao's strong family background, many mentally disabled people in high positions would have wished to force Ling Yaoyao to be their exclusive food therapist.

Ling Yaoyao was originally just a new generation of ancient Chinese gourmet food assistant therapists. At this moment, she became the hope of healing for hundreds of millions of mentally disabled people. Her value is greatly improved. Even her heat in the preliminary competition of the New Students Cup auxiliary therapy competition is unprecedented.

This matter has aroused heated discussions throughout the Huanuo Empire. Even other countries have come to try her food... They want to see if it is really that magical.

After confirming the authenticity of the matter, even foreign friends who crossed the border and crossed the Internet to try the food are very envious and envy of the entire Huanuo Empire. Why does their country not have such delicious supplementary food? Where is their talented food therapist? They secretly decided to promote the research and development of food therapy in their own country after going back.

In addition to the mentally disabled, the number of ordinary tasters who come to Ling Yaoyao has also greatly increased. Although they have no problems with their mental domain, they are also impressed by the amazing deliciousness and excellent curative effect.

The number of votes for Ling Yaoyao's five dishes in the competition soared in the last two days, reaching a terrible number.

Even for her dessert, Mango and Grapefruit Nectar, which has the least number of votes, the votes became too high for Jiang Yanqiao to surpass. It has several times the number of votes Jiang Yanqiao has obtained!

Ten days later, the voting for the preliminary round of the New Student Cup Supplementary Therapy Contest was officially closed. Ling Yaoyao unsurprisingly won first place in the food therapy group after counting the number of votes for all five entries!

Jiang Yanqiao's reputation was self-defeated because of her scandal of faking votes.

Perfect counterattack reversal. Absolute strength slap in the face!

Next, the official website of the New Student Cup Complementary Therapy Contest will not announce the specific competition rules for the semi-finals until two days later.

Ling Yaoyao showed her ability to dominate the crowd just with this preliminary match. Not surprisingly, she was almost undoubtedly the champion.

All the dust settled, but Ling Yaoyao did not relax because of this. Her whole person became tense.

Military news about the successful trial of the newest main battleship of the Grey Wolf Corps had spread on the Star Network military platform.

Ling Yaoyao left for five days and finally received a message from Ling Xuan. "I heard that Grandpa gave you a house close to school? I'm going to see you for dinner tonight. I want your cooking."

Ling Yaoyao almost wanted to reply: ...... Do you just want the dishes I cook?

She typed half of the word and deleted it again... Such a question was too ambiguous.

The result was another new message from Ling Xuan. "I miss you more."

Ling Xuan, on the other side, silently deleted, "I also want to hug you, kiss you."

Although he thinks more than this, Ling Yaoyao has only begun to accept his existence and occasionally responds implicitly. However, the little girl is thin-skinned, shy, and awkward. Let's take some time!
