Imagining is wonderful, reality is harsh!

At this moment, Huang Yide and his wife suddenly realized that they had overlooked a particularly important issue.

Which is…

There's no TV in the shop!

Great!

All that excitement and anticipation ended up being misplaced!

Fortunately, the couple thought quickly and remembered they could simply watch on their phones, following the principle of "if one way doesn't work, there's always another way".

They turned their idea into action.

Holding their phone, they fiddled with it.

Searching for Wenling News Comprehensive Channel.

But no matter how they searched, they found nothing.

There was no live broadcast to watch on the official website.

Other web pages only had past news replays.

Oh well!

After all, it's a local TV station with limited reach!

"Hey, I remember Jiang Guowei's convenience store next door seems to have a TV!"

Remembering this, Huang Yide suggested: "Why don't we go watch it there?"

A single remark brought awakening to the dreamer!

This reminded Song Cailian of the matter at hand.

"Sure! Let's take Xuanxuan to watch as well!"

"Okay!"

The couple called out to Xuanxuan, who was playing with Mimi: "Xuanxuan, Grandma is taking you to Uncle Jiang's to watch TV, okay?"

"Grandma, what are we watching on TV?" Xuanxuan turned her head to look at them, her pretty eyes filled with curiosity.

"We're going to see your dad on TV."

Dad on TV?!

"Yay, yay~"

Excitement sparkled in Xuanxuan's eyes, and she nodded eagerly: "Xuanxuan wants to go, Xuanxuan wants to see Dad on TV~"

After saying this, she quickly left Mimi and ran towards her grandparents with little steps.

Showing an expression like "watching Dad on TV is better than playing with Mimi".

Lying on the ground, Mimi was in tears…it's just an act!

Escaping the clutches of the little master, it was joyfully carefree!

"Run slower…"

Song Cailian met her halfway, took her little hand, and shouted towards the kitchen where Huang Tao was: "Son, I'm taking Xuanxuan to watch TV at Jiang Guowei's next door, just call us when you're done."

"Mom, what TV show are you watching? Taking Xuanxuan along too?"

Hearing this, Huang Tao asked curiously and then reminded: "Mom, I've told you to watch less family dramas and anti-Japanese shows; those aren't suitable for Xuanxuan."

Song Cailian laughed heartily: "Don't worry, it's not those shows. I'm watching the local news comprehensive channel's Eight O'Clock News!"

Xuanxuan's eyes crinkled into smiles, dimples appeared: "Daddy, Grandma's taking me to watch your TV show~"

The boss on TV?!

Damn!

Did I just miss something important?

Xu Hao, Lin Zifeng, and Wei all listened with puzzled faces.

Xu Hao asked curiously: "Boss, what TV show are you on? When did the TV station interview you?"

Huang Tao didn't mind this matter at all, smiled slightly and said: "No interview, I was just invited by the food festival organizers this afternoon for the 'live cooking demonstration', and this news will be on the Eight O'Clock News Comprehensive Channel!"

"Holy crap!"

"Holy crap!"

"Holy crap!"

The three of them instantly turned into shocked faces!

Huang Tao: "..."

Hey, hey, hey! No need to be so surprised…

"I heard only chefs from the 'most popular stalls' are invited to this 'live cooking demonstration'!"

Wei admired: "As expected of my boss, really awesome… managing to outshine all star-rated hotels and restaurants to become the most popular stall at the food festival. I, Wei, won't even help an old lady cross the street but I'd support you!"

Xu Hao voiced the question we all cared about: "Boss, dare I ask, what dish are you demonstrating at the 'live cooking'?"

"Yeah, yeah, boss, what dish are you demonstrating? Tell us about it!" Lin Zifeng also leaned in with curiosity.

With a smile on his lips, Huang Tao said nonchalantly: "West Lake Vinegar Fish!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Hao and the others exclaimed with another threefold shock of "Holy crap", almost kneeling in awe!

They admired even more in their hearts: A badass is truly a badass, showing off his skills with signature dishes, so amazing!

Don't ask why they don't doubt Huang Tao's ability to turn heads with West Lake Vinegar Fish.

If asked, it's because they all know how formidable their boss's cooking is.

Moreover, the boss is sincere and steady and wouldn't take on anything without confidence.

Lin Zifeng: "Boss, you're the only one I'll support unconditionally!"

...

"Uncle Jiang, Aunt Chen~"

With one hand holding Grandma's hand and the other holding Grandpa's, Xuanxuan came to Jiang Guowei's convenience store next door, sweetly calling out even before entering.

"Oh, it's Xuanxuan!"

Upon hearing the voice, Jiang Guowei poked his head out from behind the counter, seeing Xuanxuan and the Huang Yide couple, he promptly welcomed: "Mr. and Mrs. Huang, come in and have a seat…"

Saying this, he and his wife Chen Wenli busied themselves bringing small stools for them to sit.

"We came over just to catch your TV, wanting to watch the news comprehensive channel's Eight O'Clock News, if that's alright with you?" Huang Yide said with a grin.

Jiang Guowei nodded: "Of course, of course, we always watch the Eight O'Clock News every night. There are still over thirty minutes before it starts, let's chat while we wait."

"Ah, alright!"

The Huang Yide couple nodded, leading Xuanxuan to settle on the little stools.

"Uncle Jiang, Aunt Chen, soon you'll see my daddy on TV~" Xuanxuan shared the exciting news with them happily.

"Your dad's on TV?" Jiang Guowei and his wife were slightly surprised.

Xuanxuan nodded rapidly: "Yep~"

Having watched last night's food festival news, Jiang Guowei and his wife guessed that Huang Tao participated in this afternoon's "live cooking demonstration."

Of course, considering how popular Huang Tao's food stall was, participating in the "live cooking demonstration" was well-deserved!

Their focus immediately shifted to the dish demonstrated.

"Xuanxuan, what dish did your dad cook on stage this afternoon?"

"Um~"

Xuanxuan blinked her big eyes, thought for a second: "Uncle Jiang, it's West Lake Vinegar Fish!"

"My daddy's West Lake Vinegar Fish is so delicious, so delicious!"

Huang Yide concurred by nodding: "It's indeed delicious; even Master Wei Mingguo couldn't stop praising it!"

Jiang Guowei and his wife were both surprised and felt they missed out on something huge…

"Mr. Huang, do you know if there will be West Lake Vinegar Fish available in the shop later?"

"There will be, but not every day. Probably only once every three or four days!" Huang Yide replied honestly.

"As long as it's available, all is well! It means we'll be able to taste it at some point!"

With relief, Jiang Guowei and his wife remarked.

While they chatted, Song Cailian realized that the time was nearing and quickly reacted by pulling out her phone, opening the family chat group, and sending a message.

Mom: Family, you all must watch the local TV station's Eight O'Clock News tonight! Our Tao will appear on the news, remember to watch it!

Aunt: Eight O'Clock News? Tao on the news?

Dad: Yes, Tao participated in this year's food festival and was invited by the organizers for a "live cooking demonstration", teaching neighbors to cook!

Uncle: Wow, my nephew is truly impressive! Managing to appear at the food festival, which is not something just anyone can do!

Cousin: I can't believe my cousin was at the food festival and even participated in the "live cooking demonstration", and I didn't even know? All because I've been too busy with work lately, I even forgot the food festival started!

Cousin: I was busy with tutoring over the weekend and didn't have time to visit the food festival, otherwise I'd have definitely gone to see my cousin at the festival, and even try his cooking.

Aunt: Cailian, what dish did Tao cook at the "live cooking demonstration"?

Mom: West Lake Vinegar Fish! Everyone's praising how delicious it is! Even Master Wei Mingguo said that of the young chefs who can make such authentic West Lake Vinegar Fish, he's only met one, and that's our Tao!

This caused the family chat group to explode in excitement.

Wow, it turned out to be a classic dish... West Lake Vinegar Fish?!

And such high praise from Master Wei Mingguo?!

Is...is this real?!

Everyone expressed in a daze that they would watch the news later.
