Chapter 613

The music of "Great Wall" played on a loop in the shop. As the diners outside heard it, they felt a very strange atmosphere.

They seemed to see that large pot faintly flickering with golden light.

But when they looked closely, they only saw a wisp of ethereal white mist, followed by Miss Luo Quan's slender upper body.

After the free tasting began, Miss Luo Quan stood on a chair behind the Magic Copper Sacred Vessel, serving Buddha Jumps Over the Wall to the arriving diners.

The weather was already very cold, but she was still sweating profusely from the heat in the ceremony.

"Manager, why don't you come down and take a break? Let me help you." Cindy said, unable to bear seeing Miss Luo Quan panting and flushed with exertion.

"It's fine, just consider it weight loss." Miss Luo Quan laughed, stirring the pot continuously with the extra-long ladle while serving the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

The free tasting had been going on for over half an hour, and she had served at least three or four hundred bowls. She looked up at the outside, and many diners had already finished their soup, lying there with their heads tilted back, eyes closed, looking at the sky in a state of intoxication.

It seems the taste of the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall has them truly obsessed.

Soon, the first celebrity arrived.

It was a black rap star from the East Coast whose work was quite innovative. He had been nominated for Grammy rap awards both this year and last, though unfortunately, he hadn't won.

This is a singer with a very distinct personality. Why do I say that? Because a while ago, he spent almost all his savings to buy a massive pink diamond worth 200 million yuan.

After getting the pink diamond, he didn't make it into a ring or a necklace, but instead embedded it directly into his forehead. When this act appeared in the news, the crowd of onlookers was stunned, thinking, "You can play like that too?"

It's said that rap produces oddballs, and that's really no lie. Normal rappers like Gao Liang are truly one in a million.

As soon as this black rapper nicknamed "AK" appeared, the pink diamond on his head made everyone's eyes ache.

Although normal people can't understand this kind of self-mutilating behavior, one has to admit, it's indeed quite flashy.

Someone online even made a joke, saying that Caitlin has the world's most expensive long legs, Miss Luo Quan has the world's most expensive face, and AK is also very impressive—he has the world's most expensive forehead.

But this look is also quite provocative, especially in the United States. Who knows when he might run into a robber on the street who will just pry the diamond right off his forehead.

This kind of thing is not a low-probability event in the United States.

However, although this guy's behavior is bizarre, since he came, he's a guest, so Miss Luo Quan served him a bowl of soup too.

"Thanks, Miss Luo Quan, but how come I don't see my good brother Gao Liang?" AK didn't drink the soup immediately after taking it, but instead asked about Gao Liang's whereabouts.

"He'll be here in a while." Miss Luo Quan answered with a smile.

"Haven't seen him in the underground rapper heaven for a long time. If he doesn't show up soon, the nickname 'Little Emperor of New York Rap' will have to be transferred to me." AK muttered to himself, then drank the shark fin and thick soup in the bowl in one gulp.

"What a waste of heaven's gifts!" The diners around who had already tasted the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall let out a roar.

How could he eat it like a cow chewing on a peony? This needs to be savored slowly; it's simply too wasteful.

"Motherf***er! This soup is really f***ing delicious. What the f*** kind of f***ing ingredients are used in this?" After drinking it, AK also discovered the magic of the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and immediately started a three-part profanity streak.

As expected of a rapper, this "F-word" was said way too fluently.

Miss Luo Quan revealed an awkward but elegant smile on the side.

After sending off this singer who didn't seem entirely mentally sound, the main force of celebrities also began to arrive one after another.

Luxury cars pulled up to the roadside one by one. The male stars were dressed normally, but the female stars were all as gorgeous as giant flowers; they didn't look like they were here to eat, but rather like they were here to walk the red carpet.

The reporters who had been prepared for a long time immediately rushed up with their photographers, interviewing those who needed interviewing and taking photos of those who needed photos.

As mentioned before, Miss Luo Quan's tasting assembly is equivalent to creating a traffic platform, and the arrival of celebrities is to gain exposure by leveraging the platform's traffic.

And the platform can also gain the heat brought by these celebrities; it belongs to mutual achievement.

Therefore, what the platform was originally supposed to do is not important; what's important is that there will be many celebrities here, and there will also be many reporters.

With these, it's already enough.

Of course, there were also a few who came specifically to taste Miss Luo Quan's cooking.

They were mainly a dozen handsome young men who had all expressed their fondness for Miss Luo Quan on Twitter to varying degrees.

However, Miss Luo Quan had never responded, and today they were all gathered at once.

The handsome guys walked up to Miss Luo Quan. Half of the world's top twenty most handsome men were here, surrounding Miss Luo Quan like stars around the moon.

The photographers around had a keen sense of smell and started snapping their shutters wildly.

If these photos were posted online, wouldn't they be world-famous paintings?

Miss Luo Quan, the person involved, didn't have any special reaction; she just did her job, serving soup and smiling.

Several handsome guys were obviously not interested in the soup, and after finishing it, they were still unsatisfied and reluctant to leave.

After all, the soup is beautiful, but the beauty is even more so.

However, seeing that if they continued to stay shamelessly, the people behind would start cursing, and Miss Luo Quan didn't have any reaction, the handsome guys sighed and left dejectedly.

The tasting continued. This time it was the celebrities' turn to shout "Amazing." Most people, after drinking the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, held their faces and revealed expressions of disbelief.

They whispered to each other, wondering how this dish could be so delicious.

They hadn't done any homework before coming; they only knew Miss Luo Quan was a cook and that her cooking seemed pretty good, but since it was this kind of big-pot soup, they didn't expect to eat any rare delicacies.

As a result, after one bite, they only felt that the rare delicacies they had eaten before were only fit to feed pigs!

What is called the world's ultimate delicacy? This is it!

"This trip was worth it." This was the thought of most celebrities.

And as the second-to-last group of people arrived, this tasting assembly gradually drew to a close.

The pot filled with Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was now almost at the bottom, and the last group of people to arrive was the most peculiar.

Everyone was in black with sunglasses, looking like they were not to be trifled with.

After arriving, they took out an insulated container and asked Miss Luo Quan to serve everything into it.

After it was served, it was immediately locked into a safe; this defense was simply ridiculously thorough.

Miss Luo Quan encountered five groups of such black-clad men in a row. Looking at the license plates, she had no idea what they were doing, but since they were willing to come and eat, she wouldn't refuse.

The very last bit left in the pot was left for the homeless people on the next street.

Miss Luo Quan originally didn't want to let them eat it; she felt it was a kind of cruelty to these poor people.

But thinking about it from the other side, she didn't have the qualification to make decisions for others, and wasn't her thought also another kind of cruelty?

Moreover, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was invented by a group of beggars. Hundreds of years later, another group of beggars wanted to eat a dish invented by beggars; she didn't seem to have any reason to refuse.

Therefore, when these homeless people came wanting to taste the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, Miss Luo Quan still served everyone a bowl.

Because it was the soup base at the very bottom, the portion each person got was more than twice that of the previous diners, and the taste was even richer.

These unshaven, dull-faced homeless people, after finishing it, actually had a long-lost light appear in their eyes.

These homeless people were actually mostly addicts; long-term drug use had already exhausted their spirits and bodies to the point of imminent collapse.

However, this bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall allowed them to regain vitality and experience the beauty of health.

Although it was only for a brief moment, it still made these homeless people shed tears of happiness.

"To be able to drink such a bowl of soup, even if I meet God tonight, it's worth it."

"By the way, can people like us really see God?"

The homeless man raised his tear-filled eyes and looked at that somewhat blurry blonde silhouette.

They had seen an angel; could God be far away?

"The Lord has never abandoned us…………"

Several homeless people made a cross on their chests, looking like devout believers.

After finishing this bowl of soup, it felt like their souls were about to ascend.

And this scene was also captured by the reporters.

"Phew, finally finished." Miss Luo Quan climbed down from the ladder tremblingly. Long periods of standing had made her leg muscles too tense, and she couldn't even bend them for a short time.

Miss Luo Quan stood and rubbed her legs for a long time to get some slight relief.

But that only treats the symptoms, not the root cause; she'll have to rub them again when she gets back later.

"Everyone, the Chinese restaurant ends here." Miss Luo Quan gathered all the employees to give a speech for the second round of work:

"Everyone go back and rest for two days. After the few Western chefs arrive, everyone can start business according to the standards of a Western restaurant.

If I have time, I'll come by to take a look. If you encounter any problems, you can have Cindy contact me."

That's all there is to say. Miss Luo Quan recruited these employees, so she definitely wouldn't just fire them after using them.

After giving the instructions, Miss Luo Quan prepared to head home, but was surrounded by the reporters who hadn't left.

Just kidding, the American media had wanted to interview Miss Luo Quan for a long, long time and hadn't encountered any good opportunities.

Now that she was right in front of them, how could they let her leave so easily?

"I knew it…………" Miss Luo Quan and the reporters looked at each other and both smiled.

"Anyway, I've been busy for so long today, it doesn't hurt to rest for a while. Everyone, ask whatever you want, except for politics; I have no awareness or interest in that area." Miss Luo Quan drew a line in advance and then handed the time over to the reporters.

"Miss Luo Quan, what do you think about the rumor that you've been getting breast enhancement surgery? At this time last year you were 34D, and this year in Hawaii you were already 34E."

The one asking the question was a female reporter, and the microphone had a "Women's Makeup" logo printed on it.

This is a media outlet that focuses on women's lives and covers a wide range of topics, and it is very popular among women worldwide.

It's a bit like a combination of Douban and Xiaohongshu in China.

"Rumors, absolutely rumors!" Facing the reporter's question, Miss Luo Quan denied it righteously.

"Please don't forget, I'm only twenty years old this year. According to common sense, the development of girls in this age group hasn't finished completely."

"Then do you have any secrets?"

Damn, what kind of weird questions are these?

Miss Luo Quan felt a bit helpless: "Eat more meat, exercise more.

There's a saying: when you gain weight, you gain it in the face first; when you lose weight, you lose it in the chest first. Those girls who want to have a good figure by dieting need to pay close attention."

That was a very sincere suggestion, but she actually wanted to say that everyone has their own situation, and hers isn't very easy to replicate.

"Do you have any plans for your next new album?"

Another reporter continued to ask.

Miss Luo Quan looked closely. Good heavens, it was actually from Universal. She was amused to the point of laughing: "Are you kidding? Didn't I just release a new album?"

This reporter was obviously here to liven up the atmosphere and deliberately asked a very outrageous question.

However, regarding music, there are quite a lot of topics to talk about, such as her album sales breaking 100 million, the certification from the Vienna Golden Hall, and invitations from top American music academies, etc.

These are all news stories worth writing about.

But there definitely wasn't enough time to talk about them one by one, so Miss Luo Quan only selectively answered a few questions that were easier to answer.

For example, what is her opinion on the World's Most Beautiful Faces competition that has already started voting this year.

What other opinion could there be? A three-peat, of course.

After all, in terms of beauty, there is currently no girl who is her rival.

She also wants to be second place once, but this face doesn't allow it.

Several reporters heard Miss Luo Quan's arrogant statement and thought: So annoying, she really got to show off. Who on earth asked such a low-tech question?

Turning their heads to look, it was indeed TCC's own reporter.

Hehe, colluding with each other, designating Miss Luo Quan as the champion every time, thinking the people of the world don't know!

But eighteen years later, she probably won't be able to be this arrogant. At that time, Miss Luo Quan will be thirty-eight, already an old aunt, while her sister will only be eighteen.

The older sister is this beautiful, and they were born to the same parents, so the younger sister definitely won't be much worse.

By then, Miss Luo Quan will be past her prime, and her sister will be in her prime; I'm afraid the crown of the world's most beautiful will have to change hands.

The reporters thought to themselves.

The interview ended smoothly. Miss Luo Quan took a taxi home, quickly took a shower, and gave her two long legs a hot compress.

She hadn't used her legs like this for a long time. Before, when she was on set, she spent most of her time sitting in the director's chair pointing out the country; she had never been this tired before.

While rubbing her legs, she opened her phone to look at today's news.

Buddha Jumps Over the Wall made it to the Twitter trending list. From celebrities to diners to media reporters, everyone was praising this magical Chinese dish.

Everyone was adamant, claiming that this was the most delicious dish they had ever eaten in their lives, even better than the donuts their grandmothers made when they were children.

After flipping through it, there were only six negative reviews for this dish. The reason for the negative reviews was that the portion was really too small, and after eating it, eating other food tasted like chewing wax.

"Once having seen the vast sea, it is difficult to be satisfied with other waters; except for the clouds over Mount Wu, no other clouds are worth looking at"—that's probably the kind of psychology this is.

Everyone has very different tastes in food, but this situation where the whole internet praises one dish is really too rare.

It's a pity that such a delicious dish, after gaining huge popularity, became a swan song.
