Pedestrians and vehicles whizzing by the street, while the delivery guys shuttled through the crowd.

Gao Dian sat in a cafe on the street, staring out the window in a daze.

"By the way, you're like this as soon as you come in, what's the matter?"

Wei Qiaoyi asked opposite Gao Dian.

"No, I'm just thinking about tomorrow's final." Gao Dian said.

"What do you have to think about?" Wei Qiaoyi said indifferently.

Gao Dian was silent for a while, turned his head and looked at the girl opposite him half leaning against the backrest of the chair.

"Have you ever used real strength since the start of the competition?" Gao Dian asked.

Wei Qiaoyi smiled and said, "Why did you remember to ask this?"

"I just thought of it suddenly." Gao Dian shook his head and said.

"Do you want me to tell the truth or lies?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.

"Let's tell the truth." Gao Dian said.

"The truth is nothing." Wei Qiaoyi said.

Gao Dian was not surprised at all when he heard this answer. In fact, when Wei Qiaoyi asked for the truth and lies, he had already guessed it.

"really……"

Gao Dian said.

"What? Was it hit?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.

There was no smile on her face.

Gao Dian thought for a while and said, "It's a bit. After all, you didn't show your true strength and easily advanced to the finals."

And he advanced to the finals and tried his best!

"Actually, you don't have to think too much," Wei Qiaoyi said softly, "Really, I have the current level, which is related to my contact with me since I was a child. In fact, I have been studying pastry for much longer than you."

Hearing this, Gao Dian felt a little better.

At this moment, he also understood the people who were hit by Wei Qiaoyi. When you tried your best, you found that the level of playing with others casually was really uncomfortable.

"I never thought about participating in this competition, because this competition doesn't mean much to me," said Wei Qiaoyi.

"Then why...you... are here to participate again?" Gao Dian asked.

"Because some people are afraid of losing, after all, we are the organizers, and we can't even get a champion, so how embarrassing it." Wei Qiaoyi said while stirring the coffee in the cup.

"So... were you pulled as insurance?" Gao Dian asked.

"You are right to say this." Wei Qiaoyi said.

"Isn't this illegal? It means that the champion has been decided long ago. No matter how much we compete, it will be the second place." Gao Dian said.

"It's not a violation. I am indeed at the level of a first-class pastry chef, and my age is also in line with the competition rules." Wei Qiaoyi said.

Gao Dian asked curiously: "By the way, I don't know how old you are."

Wei Qiaoyi glared at Gao Dian, "Don't you know that age is a girl's secret?"

Gao Dian smiled embarrassedly and asked a girl about her age. It was indeed a bit abrupt and impolite.

Wei Qiaoyi sighed and said, "At the beginning, I also mentioned this issue. It is actually boring for me to participate. Not only is I boring, but you are also boring. But there is no way. The organizer asked me to participate, but I really can't help it."

Gao Dian smiled bitterly when he heard this.

Pastry chefs who are within the age specified in the competition probably want to participate. Even China has trained, and more than 100 top young pastry chefs gathered together to compete with each other just to compete for several places.

As a result, Wei Qiaoyi didn't want to participate at all, and the organizer agreed to participate after repeated requests.

In fact, after thinking about it, Gao Dian also understood Wei Qiaoyi a little.

At this time, if he was asked to participate in the previous city youth noodle chef exchange competition, he would no longer be interested and would not want to participate.

Because it's not interesting.

It's really not a pretense. He has reached the level of a first-level pastry chef. When he competes with a group of second-level pastry chefs, he not only has no gains, but also wastes time and energy.

Maybe the level is different, the vision is different.

"It's really hard for you." Gao Dian said.

Wei Qiaoyi smiled and said nothing.

Gao Dian took a sip of coffee, which was a bit bitter. It was so bitter with sugar added. If it wasn't added sugar, how bitter would it be?

"I have a request." Gao Dian suddenly said.

Wei Qiaoyi raised her head and looked at Gao Dian with a slightly frown of eyebrows, "What request?"

"Can you use your true level in the final tomorrow?" Gao Dian asked.

"Why?" Wei Qiaoyi was puzzled.

"I want to see how big the gap between me and you is!" Gao Dian said.

Wei Qiaoyi was silent for a while and said, "Tomorrow won't work."

"Why?" Gao Dian asked.

"Because... the organizer does not allow it." Wei Qiaoyi said.

"Hmm? What does this have to do with the organizer?" Gao Dian asked.

"It's too ugly if you don't want others to lose." Wei Qiaoyi said.

Gao Dian was speechless for a moment, which was in line with the habits of Chinese people.

Winning means winning, but it won't make the opponent lose too ugly.

Immediately, Gao Dian was a little confused again, "There should be many people who know your true level? Wouldn't it make them feel even more embarrassed if you conceal it like this?"

Wei Qiaoyi has traveled abroad and compared with many chefs from the previous generation, so it is no secret that her true level is.

"I know, but I didn't do it for them to show it." Wei Qiaoyi said.

"It's not them that's..."

Before Gao Dian could speak, he suddenly realized what Wei Qiaoyi meant.

There are many people who know Wei Qiaoyi’s true level, but they are all in the same circle.

Because Wei Qiaoyi participated in the competition, there was nothing inconsistent with it, at most it was that her level was 100 million points high.

The people the organizer really wants to see are actually many viewers.

"I understand." Gao Dian said in a breath.

Wei Qiaoyi was silent for a while and said, "If you really want to know the gap between you and me, then when this competition is over, we will have a private competition and I will use the real level."

Upon hearing this, Gao Dian nodded and said, "Okay!"

The reason why he wants to know the gap is because only when he knows the gap can he know how to catch up. If you don’t even know what level the other party is at, how can you catch up? There is no goal.

The two sat in the cafe for some time, and the coffee in the cup became cold, and some of them had not been finished.

Hold the high-end and stuffy, and don't waste it.

"Let's go, let's go back." Gao Dian said.

"Don't stay for a while?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.

"No." Gao Dian replied.

Wei Qiaoyi responded and stood up and left with Gao Dian.

It was suggested by Gao Dian to come to the cafe. He just wanted to ask Wei Qiaoyi about this. Now that the matter has been asked, he can go back.

Why not go back and ask?

Gao Dian was afraid that he would hide in the kitchen to practice when he went back, and forgot about this.

On the way, the two were only half a meter apart.

"By the way, why haven't you ever seen you make the soup base you made today?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.

"I haven't learned it before." Gao Dian said.

"Then when did you learn it? Complex soup bases are more difficult than single soup bases. Did you learn it in such a short time?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.

"Actually, it's not true to learn it. I just made a coincidence and haven't really learned it yet." Gao Dian said with a smile.

"I will win Akiko Nagashima by taking advantage of the tricks? If Akiko Nagashima heard this, he would probably be so angry that he vomited blood." Wei Qiaoyi smiled.

At the same time, she was also amazed at Gao Dian's talent. You must know that even if you take shortcuts, it would not be easy to achieve this level.

"It's okay, it's not that I'm awesome, but that the recipe is great." Gao Dian said sincerely.

The recipe for Shen Shengsheng’s knife-cut noodles is a bit awesome, but you can win the best, mostly because the recipe is excellent.

"There is no need to belittle yourself. No matter how powerful the recipe is, it will be dead. Besides, do you think Akihiro Nagashima's recipe is not amazing?" Wei Qiaoyi said with a smile.
