Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

Chapter 12: Chapter 12: So It's Because of Being Ugly

"She's been picking on you, and you've ignored her. This time, you can't let it go that easily. How dare she question your cooking skills?"

Cindy stayed silent for a while, then suddenly asked, "Did you just come from the Company?"

Peggy Lewis was caught off guard by the question, and answered, "Yeah, I just finished work. I saw the stuff on Facebook on my way home and changed course to come here right away."

"Then you haven't had dinner yet. What do you want to eat? I'll make you something," said Cindy.

"I'm so angry I don't even want to eat! It's too hot for an appetite anyway. I'm on a diet," fumed Peggy, "You've been wrongly accused like this, and you still want to cook?"

"I can't let you starve, can I?" Cindy went into the kitchen, "If you can't think of anything, I'll decide for you. How about Greasy Noodles?"

Thinking of Cindy's Greasy Noodles, Peggy couldn't help but nod in agreement, "Okay."

With that, Cindy started cooking.

Peggy quickly followed her, "Are you really in the mood to cook now? Don't you think this is just a minor issue? Let me tell you, this has blown up on Facebook. Your video comments must be going crazy too."

Cindy began boiling water and took out some knife-cut noodles she had prepared and dried earlier for her videos. She dropped them in the boiling water.

"I'll go look once I've cooked the noodles for you. There's nothing I can do by looking at it now, anyway," said Cindy calmly, "But you're right, we can't let this slide."

She could accept people questioning her cooking skills, but she couldn't tolerate being slandered.

She couldn't bear that.

After saying that, Cindy took a cucumber out of the refrigerator and shredded it.

"Normally, restaurants would blanch rapeseed and put it on the noodles. Since it's hot, though, I'll use cucumber for you. It's more refreshing, and I won't need to boil more water. You can do this when you're at home too; it's not much trouble," explained Cindy, finishing cutting the cucumber.

"I'll just come to you when I want to eat this. I'm too lazy to even cook noodles. Frying oil means cleaning the pot," Peggy was infected by Cindy's calm and leaned against the door frame, not looking as anxious as before.

"Lazybone," laughed Cindy.

"These are the best Greasy Noodles I've ever had," sighed Peggy with satisfaction, "The sourness is so perfect for summer."

Morgan nodded vigorously on the side.

"Cindy, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and check the internet," urged Peggy, "It's really serious this time."

Cindy went to fetch her mobile phone.

No wonder Peggy was furious.

Someone on the internet posted their failed attempt at replicating Cindy's recipe.

Moreover, it wasn't just one person. Many people claimed that Cindy's methods were unusable.

"I followed Cindy Clarke's method, and the taste is just horrible. So disgusting."

"I won't mention the appearance; maybe I didn't control the heat well. But I followed her seasoning method strictly, even the amount, and this is what I ended up with."

"I have a friend who works at an influencer packaging company. She said Cindy Clarke is just another influencer made by their company, who doesn't actually know how to cook. She just has nice-looking hands, which are great for shooting videos. Haven't you all noticed that she never shows her face? It's because she's too ugly and would ruin the video quality."

"Haha! No wonder she never dares to show her face. She's ugly."

"Seems like not only is her cooking horrible, but she's also ugly. She never speaks; does that mean her voice is awful too?"

The one who revealed this information said, "My friend said her voice is fine. Nothing outstanding, but not unpleasant either. It's just that she's ugly. And when shooting videos, she always has someone instructing her. She can't cook on her own. The finished dishes look good because they're not made by her. Someone else makes them, and they're edited into the video."

"Why did someone like this become popular?"

"She's no Zoe Silverstone, that's for sure."

"Don't compare someone who doesn't dare to show her face with Zoe Silverstone. Zoe is beautiful, a great cook, and has a lovely voice. Watching her videos is a pleasure."

"The most important thing is that Zoe's methods actually work. The dishes you make with her recipes are truly delicious."

More photos of finished dishes followed.

"Yeah, even with my clumsy hands, I made it look good and taste great," another user agreed, also sharing pictures.

"Haha, comparing someone who doesn't dare show her face and hires people to cook for her to Zoe Silverstone is just an insult to Zoe. What can Morgan Zhekova hold against Zoe?"
