There was no way Zhong Qingzi could go back on her word in front of a huge audience.
She had no choice but to give Xu Xiyan a 9.5 score.
With that, Xu Xiyan got the first place for that round, and two other participants were eliminated.
Shen Mengyuan was speechless when she saw the scores on the screen.
Shen Mengyuan thought that Xu Xiyan would be eliminated for sure, but not only had she managed to avoid that, she even got the highest score.
Shen Mengyuan snuck off to her aunt’s room during the break again.
“That girl is insane, being able to do something like that!” Zhong Qingzi scolded.
“I’ve already told you that she’s not your average joe. There’s no way Huo Yunshen would fall for someone normal,” Shen Mengyuan said.
“We have to think of something,” Zhong Qingzi said as she began to think. “She must not score a high score in the next round. It would be best if we could just eliminate her too.”
“But there are four judges in total. You could give her a low score, but the other three wouldn’t. She will win if this goes on.”
“I have an idea. Do you want to try it?”
“What’s that?”
“If we can pull two other judges to our side, we can eliminate her,” Zhong Qingzi grinned.
“Which two are you thinking?”
“Since William is from another country, we have no leverage over him,” Zhong Qingzi said. “But Fu Qiang and An Nan on the other hand… As long as we get them on our side, we can eliminate Jing Xi easily.”
“And how do we do that?”
“I have something of a relationship with Fu Qiang. I could just invite him to dinner and make him a proposal. As for An Nan, you have to take care of him.”
“Fine! I’ll do it!”
Shen Mengyuan was prepared to take extreme measures as long as she could get rid of Jing Xi.
The fourth section was themed Group War, where the remaining six participants were split into three groups.
Xu Xiyan was put in the same group with Han Xinyun, while Shen Mengyuan was partnered up with He Hua, a veteran actress.
The fourth round emphasized group work. Xu Xiyan and Han Xinyun worked together almost perfectly to produce three dishes, and they got to know each other more while they were cooking.
Han Xinyun got into the acting business earlier, and in terms of status, she was Xu Xiyan’s senior.
Xu Xiyan tried to call her with honorifics, but Han Xinyun stopped Xu Xiyan and asked her to call her “Yun Sis” instead.
They kept talking as they were preparing the dishes. Since no microphones were on them while they were cooking, the contents of their chats weren’t recorded.
“Jing Xi, your cooking is really on par with your acting!” Han Xinyun praised in surprise. “No wonder Mr. Huo would only look at you! You must’ve enchanted him with your food, am I right?”
“You’re too generous,” Xu Xiyan laughed. “Your acting is way better than mine. I still have to learn a lot from you. As for being enchanted by food, I think it’s the other way around.”
