Chapter 99: Yam Rib Soup

Liao Ning washed the remaining ribs and cut them into small pieces meticulously. Next, she carefully placed them in the pot, along with ginger slices, and added an appropriate amount of cold water to blanch away any foamy residue. Following this, she skillfully scooped out the ribs and rinsed them thoroughly with clear water.

[What is Liao Ning doing? I’ve noticed that several dishes today involve this step of adding ginger when cooking meat.]

[I’m curious too. I even recorded the screen so that I can try this technique at home and see if it enhances the flavor of the meat.]

[I don’t quite understand. Other contestants were also cooking meat earlier, but they didn’t add anything apart from water in their pots like Liao Ning did.]

[Could someone please provide an explanation? The child is really curious!!]

[Count me in. Let’s have an expert enlighten us!]

Perhaps the audience’s strong desire for knowledge had an impact because an expert who specialized in ancient food culture stepped forward to offer an explanation.

“I conduct research on ancient delicacies. There are records of this particular method of cooking meat in ancient books. It’s a step specifically designed to eliminate any off-flavors in the meat and enhance its overall deliciousness.”

[We have an expert here!]

[No wonder the meat I cook never tastes as good!]

“So, it’s not just about purchasing quality meat. It’s equally crucial to handle it properly! ”

After washing the ribs, Liao Ning proceeded to place them in a casserole alongside sliced lotus root, corn, and carrots. Adding an appropriate amount of water, she allowed the mixture to simmer gently. Four hours later, as the competition drew to a close, the lotus root and ribs soup had reached its optimum level of flavor and tenderness.

[Why did Liao Ning bring over a chair? Is she finished cooking?]

[Isn’t this too quick? The others are still busy!]

[Have you seen how efficient Liao Ning is? Her ingredient preparation speed surpasses that of others.]

[People who frequently tune into Liao Ning’s live-stream have grown accustomed to her pace. Every time, she manages to whip up a meal in just an hour and presents it on the stream at lightning speed. It’s quite different from others who spend half the day cooking a single meal. If viewers were to wait until they cooked, they might end up starving.]

[The person above doesn’t hold back. They’re hitting right at the hearts of other food live-streamers.]

Liao’s gaze fixed on the clay pot, releasing a continuous stream of steam. Lost in thought, she fell into a brief reverie. Feeling a bit bored, she pondered about how to captivate everyone’s attention by sharing a story from eight years ago after the competition.

From a distance, Zhou Ling observed the woman lost in her thoughts on the stage. Her hair, now snow-white, was neatly tied up in a small bun atop her head. He had recently purchased a hair tie when he passed through the capital, a cute one in light pink with two fluffy balls. At first glance, he thought it would suit her perfectly, and his expectations were spot on.

He never anticipated her wearing the hair tie he bought today, which instantly softened his gaze, causing a gentle smile to form on his lips.

Gao Dian, sitting beside Zhou Ling, watched the competition with him and suddenly felt a change in his boss’s demeanor. He couldn’t quite pinpoint it, but it seemed as if his boss had transformed from a battle-hardened soldier to a carefree schoolboy.

In that moment, Gao Dian’s military Al device, provided exclusively by the military and holding highly confidential information, began to ring. The message came from Lan Yin, saying, “Everything is prepared. Await the signal for the net to be cast.”

Gao Dao promptly shared the news with Zhou Ling. “Boss, Lan Yin has completed all preparations. When do we initiate our plan?”

Zhou Ling’s smile faded. “No need to rush. Let’s wait for the competition results. ”

“Understood.”

In recent days, Zhou Ling had been making secret arrangements to meet with the head of state of the alliance. He had presented all the evidence of the Wang family’s interference with his spaceship to the head of state. Upon reviewing the evidence, the head of state didn’t immediately disclose his stance, but he tacitly supported Zhou Ling’s plan to suppress the Wang family. He reassured Zhou Ling that he had full support in this matter, allowing Zhou Ling to proceed with confidence in his plan to undermine the Wang family’s influence within the military.

While both the Wang family and the Zhou family held significant positions within the Alliance Army, with many of their descendants serving in the military, the Wang family held limited actual power. Most of their members were involved in logistical roles for the Alliance. In contrast, due to their family’s exceptional genetic heritage, numerous descendants of the Zhou family possessed great strength and formed a formidable force within the Alliance. They had made significant contributions to the defense of the Alliance, actively participating in combating external threats..
