Chapter 1227: Serena The Conqueror
Chapter 1227: Serena The Conqueror
A few minutes had gone by since Serena began to display her chef’s ability to capture the consumers’ hearts.
Many crew members were grateful for being able to enjoy the skewers while working on the set.
Given how a person’s stomach was the most important aspect, Serena managed to conquer the majority of the people on set, who openly welcomed her presence.
"What? You want to recruit her into the short drama as imperial chef?" At this moment, Carmen’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
The short drama was already on the trend despite not having a single episode published. The editing team was swamped hard, and the plot line had barely gotten to the middle part.
Yet now Xu Feng was requesting her to include another role, like throwing a heavy boulder on her back.
"It’s not that I don’t want to, but if you really want me to add her to the short drama. Then the original plan of 3 hours long will be scrapped."
Carmen wasn’t against Serena whatsoever. Instead, she was concerned that this short drama might not be completed within the duration set initially.
One could say that the drama was already stacked, and adding more variables would only result in lots of plot holes.
"You should have a taste of this." Contrary to wasting words to convince Carmen, he decided to hand her a specially-made skewer.
Although Serena was providing the crew with skewers, they were all ordinary ones. From her words, she said ingredients going to waste was a sin, so she might as well cook them all and hand them out.
Needless to say, the crew could naturally discern the difference between the two skewers. But none of them dared to voice a complaint.
After all, Xu Feng and Carmen were ultimately the bosses on the shooting set.
Whoever dared to offend these two was destined to have no good ending.
"My hands are tied." Carmen cleared her throat and calmly reminded that she was too busy reading the script and making some comments.
As if that wasn’t enough for a hint, she opened her mouth slightly. Her pink tongue and perfect white teeth were in full view for Xu Feng to see.
To ensure that nobody else could see her bold action, she even used the script to cover the angle.
Xu Feng’s expression turned tense.
’My dear god, even Carmen is being affected??!’ He cried inwardly.
He could still endure and withstand the attack of the three actresses, but this one move from Carmen could easily shatter his defense in an instant.
As he glanced at her longer, he found himself somewhat enchanted by her docile and cute behavior.
Maybe it was because he knew her as the fearsome Demoness, so seeing her behaving in such a stark contrast toward him caused his heart to pound rapidly.
’No, I’m definitely being affected because both Zhao Kai and Ning Yi found their other half.’ He hurriedly shook his head to eradicate all those nonsensical thoughts.
Nevertheless, he still fed Carmen the skewer to let her taste Serena’s worth.
By the time Carmen closed her mouth and began to savor the meat, her body froze in place.
"Umm, what do you think?" Xu Feng asked after a few seconds had gone by. He even waved his hand in front of her face to get her attention.
Soon, Carmen snapped out of her daze. She cleared her throat softly and put on a solemn expression.
"Serena being cast as an imperial chef... approved." She said professionally.
"This is only because I think having an imperial chef could spice things up. Her beauty could also become another type of fan service to bring traffic. But we must make sure that she has to cook in every scene she will be in. And as the director, I must taste them to see whether it is acceptable or not."
How righteous of you!
Xu Feng resisted the urge to call her out for clearly wanting to taste more of Serena’s cooking.
She and Zhao Kai were both gluttonous. As soon as their mouth tasted delicious food, they could even sell their soul on the spot.
"Wait a minute, Feng." Carmen suddenly recalled something. "Could she be an Expert Chef?"
She remembered how Xu Feng mentioned that chefs in the Divine World could manipulate and change a player’s attributes with their food alone.
"She’s not at that level yet." He pondered for a few moments before giving such a conclusion. He admitted that Serena’s cooking in the real world was already top-notch, but when it came to the Divine World. She was still lacking.
At the very least, Xu Feng knew Serena’s skills had yet to reach the peak that he tasted.
"Have you recruited her to our guild yet?" Carmen asked.
"I didn’t even bother to make such an offer."
"Why not?"
"She’s not interested."
"And how would you know if you never asked in the first place?" She was exasperated and wondered where her shameless Guild Leader had gone. Back then, he actively pursued her to recruit her to the guild.
Yet now he was claiming to be a coward and a hesitant person?
Was he trying to fool her?
Or was he trying to imply that she was easy to recruit as opposed to Serena?
Xu Feng’s face twitched when he noticed Carmen’s expression was shifting to hatred. He sweated profusely as he hurriedly explained himself.
"Carmen, you should know that great chefs have that inexplicable pride in them. They knew how well their skill was, and preferred freedom."
Unfortunately, his so-called explanation fell on deaf ears.
Carmen rolled her eyes and grabbed him by the collar. She then pulled him close to her as she warned, "I don’t care what crooked method you have in store. But you’d better recruit this chef into the guild so I can have a well-fed tummy. If necessary, use your manly charm to swoon her over."
’It’s over... this Carmen has gone insane for Serena’s food.’ Xu Feng regretted bringing over such a bane to his rank.
