Drinking it made one feel completely refreshed. Delicious! Xie Baomin poured himself a large bowl and started patrolling the kitchen with it.
Just as Lin Xu was about to drink some more, the kitchen helper who had slaughtered the carp came over with a small basin, "Chef Lin, here are the Fish Scales you requested. I didn't dare to disturb you earlier when the head chef was teaching you how to make sugar syrup. They're all here. Do you want me to help you wash them?"
"No need, no need, I can wash them myself. Thank you for your trouble."
"If you say that, it makes me feel like an outsider, Chef Lin. You're our hero in Building Two after all."
Lin Xu, representing Building Two, had won the championship in this cooking competition, giving everyone in Building Two a reason to hold their heads high. The staff in the back kitchen practically considered him their hero.
After the kitchen helper left, Lin Xu went to the sink, carefully washing the Fish Scales twice in the basin.
