"Du Gong, you've already had two portions. Why don't you let me have this one?" Surveyor Xiaoliu greeted with a smile, showing no intention of backing down.

Du Qiming shook his head slightly, "Haven't you also eaten two portions?"

The numbers game couldn't convince either side, so Surveyor Xiaoliu switched tactics, "You're at least a survey team leader. I haven't seen you eating at the canteen these days, always dining with the project leaders. The rest of us have been eating at the canteen every day, and we're sick of it!"

Du Qiming took a deep breath, not expecting Xiaoliu, who usually seemed so honest, to come up with such a clever argument.

"You're mistaken. Eating with the leaders, can you even call that eating? It's working, trying to get some benefits for our south city survey team! For that little bit of benefit, I never eat my fill, always having to make instant noodles back at the dormitory. You've seen it yourself!"

Chen Mo focused on cooking, only starting to listen once the tofu was done, finding these two to be quite humorous indeed.

Xiaoliu didn't expect Du Qiming to counter back, narrowing his eyes as if facing a formidable foe, "Du Gong, let's not even mention other things. Last time when the south city contractor treated us to a meal, everyone drank a lot, and the bill for the foot massage on the third floor was on me!"

Du Qiming's heart skipped a beat, thinking to himself, did Xiaoliu play the final card?

"Alright, alright, Xiaoliu, but don't forget when you got caught at the karaoke by your girlfriend, it was me who vouched for you in the restroom that you were working overtime."

Hiss!

Xiaoliu's weakness was held firmly, leaving him momentarily bewildered, just as Chen Mo's Mapo tofu was ready, "Which one of you will eat it?"

The ownership of the Mapo tofu was still undecided, while Surveyor Xiaoliu was nearly out of his energy.

After a moment of silence, Surveyor Xiaoliu seemed to make a difficult decision, staring at Du Qiming, "Let me ask you, is this dish any good?"

When leaving home today, Du Qiming had boasted about teaching Boss Xiaocheng a lesson.

He said, no matter if it's good or bad, just say it's bad, just to mooch for free.

If you're unkind, Du Gong, don't blame me, Xiaoliu, for being unrighteous!

Seeing this, LuLu pointed her camera at her face, waiting for her carnival moment.

Even Chen Mo watched Du Qiming with keen interest, waiting for him to open his mouth.

"Damn..."

Du Qiming never expected, despite all his precautions, that there'd be internal issues!

He thought he'd won by grabbing Xiaoliu's weakness, but Xiaoliu came back with a move that led to mutual destruction!

If he said it's delicious, he could have the tofu, but he'd have to pay and throw a carnival.

If he said it's not delicious, he'd have to pay anyway, and he wouldn't get to eat it.

This is a cleverly orchestrated trap!

So be it.

Du Qiming took a deep breath and took the Mapo tofu that Chen Mo placed on the counter in his hands, "Delicious."

He said it breezily yet with grit in his teeth, full of contradiction.

Whew...

Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief, LuLu did the same, and more than four hundred fans in the live stream room also relaxed.

Fascinating, truly fascinating!

It seemed like the two were just fighting over a portion of Mapo tofu, but the conversation was packed with information, and many fans started analyzing, yet the topic always circled back to the Mapo tofu.

"This method of making Mapo tofu is indeed rare. I'll try it at home tomorrow night. It looks delicious."

"That guy still wants to be stubborn. He's already devoured two portions. If he still says it's not good, it'd be a bit against his conscience!"

"The streamer is nice, I've followed. I'll watch every time this Xiaohuang food cart goes live!"

"Great content, I love watching it. This live stream has something to it. I hope it's not scripted, but it looks genuine. By the way, does Boss Xiao set up stall at the sports institute every day? If I'm free tomorrow, I'll go try his Mapo tofu."

Seeing the barrage of comments, LuLu took the opportunity to promote her information group.

Of course, it's the second information group.

The first group is all veterans, and LuLu decided from now on, if someone isn't a high-level figure, they can't join the first group!

Otherwise, there'd be one more person sharing Boss Fang's red envelopes.

With good live content, the audience naturally enjoyed it, and thus tips increased. LuLu watched as she received several hundred Yuan in gifts today, smiling towards the food cart.

Indeed, working with Boss Xiaochen, even live streaming becomes successful!

Mu Mu glanced at the smiling LuLu Jie, quietly adding her to the "bad people" list.

Having secured the Mapo tofu, Du Qiming returned to Xiao Na's side to eat. Even though he was already full, he found this portion even better than the previous two!

Especially noticing Xiaoliu's resentful gaze, it made the dish taste even better.

As the colleagues from the survey team gradually finished their meals, all of them understandably scanned to pay, as the three portions of Mapo tofu were already beyond their usual meal, and it wouldn't be fitting for Du Gong to treat.

Chen Mo watched the experience value numbers getting closer to leveling up, his eyelids twitching uncontrollably.

When Du Qiming also approached the food cart, Chen Mo clenched his fists, just one more order to go!

"What a pity," Du Qiming said to the colleague beside him, "Tomorrow we're leaving, and in the south city, we won't get to eat such delicious tofu."

"Yeah, but back in the south city, we can eat other things!"

In the south city project, urban village renovation, combined with many night shift workers from the electronics and mechanics factories, there's always a demand for late night snacks.

Chen Mo had initially considered this place, but his unfinished building was far from the south city, and a hand-pushed food cart was not suitable for such distances.

Of course, it still isn't suitable now, as it'd take about an hour to walk there.

"Brother Chen Mo, isn't our second inspection spot in the south city?" Mu Mu asked, batting her eyes upon overhearing the customers' conversation.

"Yes..." Chen Mo sighed in discomfort.

How to set up a stall then, it's really troubling.

"Alright, Boss Xiao, the money is transferred, please check."

Chen Mo nodded, having heard the payment notification, "No problem at all. Welcome back anytime."

"By the way, Boss Xiao, can I add you on WeChat? Who knows, we might take a cab here one day when we want to eat."

Chen Mo declined without hesitation, "Better not; I'm not sure where I'll set up or when I'll be available."

Du Qiming thought to himself, this young boss is peculiar, not even trying to retain loyal customers.

Then he checked his phone, entering LuLu's live stream, indeed feeling the sting of the carnival, wanting to recoup some of his costs.

"Streamer, I'll be the top fan with one carnival gift, can I add you as a friend?"

LuLu responded cheerfully, "Of course you can!"

Before the stream, she already knew she needed to maintain relationships with top fans. If someone gives a gift worth three thousand Yuan, it's not too much to ask for a WeChat number.

After adding LuLu on WeChat, Du Qiming, feeling somewhat downcast, recharged and sent gifts.

When he looked at his phone again, he saw he'd been added to a group.
