Chapter 177 - 177: Innocence
Just like the title bestowed upon the princess by His Majesty, ancient food culture served as the beacon of hope for the empire. The princess aimed to utilize these ancient delicacies to guide the people out of the darkness caused by the mental strength riots. She sought to lead the commoners, who were under the control of expensive mental strength potions, towards the light of a new dawn.
Xiao Chen didn’t elaborate further to Xiao Han. Instead, she reassured her, saying, “Trust me. Their families will be willing. I will find the people you need.”
Upon receiving the report from the appraisal center, Jin Xiang promptly sought the assistance of a lawyer to send a legal notice to the individual who had posted the defamatory content and to several anti-fans who were spreading false rumors about Liao Ning.
The lawyer’s letter demanded that they delete all the slanderous comments concerning Liao Ning before the afternoon and issue public apologies using their real names.
Whether it was due to the shock of receiving a lawyer’s letter from the most prestigious law firm in the entire alliance or the undeniable evidence that Jin Xiang had presented from Liao Ning’s account as her assistant, the few individuals in question publicly apologized to Liao Ning on their respective online platforms before noon. They also removed all the defamatory comments about her from Star Web.
Jin Xiang wore a satisfied smile as she observed the Al’s work, and she urged Liao Ning to begin the live-stream.
“Understood. The live-stream will commence shortly,” Liao Ning responded, feeling somewhat helpless towards her assistant’s persistent encouragement for her to do live-streams. She understood Jin Xiang’s desire to revive their family as quickly as possible, but the frequency of daily live-streams was challenging for her. Lately, she had been providing gourmet guidance for a newly opened hotel!
“Hello, everyone. I’m the live-streamer known as My Child Is The Best. Today, I have prepared a tutorial to teach you all how to make orange-black garlic and mustard prawns.”
[Liao Ning has finally started her live-stream!]
[We’ve missed you and the two cubs!]
[We were worried about the live-streamer being affected by public opinion, but now that the evidence is out, everyone can feel relieved.]
[I apologize, live-streamer. I shouldn’t have doubted your innocence after being swayed by certain public opinions.]
[I knew it. Liao Ning would never engage in plagiarism.]
[These individuals are masters at exploiting loopholes. The Empire and the
Alliance may be distant, but they remain interconnected!] [I suspect it’s a deliberate rumor spread by someone.] [I also believe someone is intentionally targeting the live-streamer.] [Now that you mention it, I’m starting to have my doubts.]
[Let’s not get too anxious. We shouldn’t indulge in conspiracy theories.]
When Liao Ning noticed the comments from viewers, she, too, began to suspect that someone was deliberately targeting her. However, regardless of her suspicions, she couldn’t show it at this moment. Nor could she allow the discussion on this topic to continue during the live-stream.
“I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your trust and support. It truly touches me that you all care for and stand by me, especially during this challenging period. Now, with the irrefutable evidence, all the defamatory comments have vanished. Let’s please remain calm and focus on learning how to cook delicious food together. After all, delectable cuisine has the power to heal negative emotions. I hope that through my live-streams, everyone can find happiness. I don’t want anyone to be unhappy because of me!”
[The live-streamer is so kind-hearted!]
[Liao Ning is simply exceptional. She’s the best live-streamer in the world!]
“I’ve noticed that whenever conflicts arise among viewers during the live-stream, the live-streamer steps in to calm everyone down.”
[Indeed! Regardless of the defamatory remarks made by others, the live-streamer encourages fans to ignore the slander!]
[Liao Ning takes great care of everyone’s emotions and strives to maintain a positive learning environment for cooking! ]
[I’m just a casual viewer who came here to learn cooking, but I can testify that the live-streamer is the best when it comes to engaging with casual viewers!] [I can testify too!]
“Alright, let’s begin today’s cooking lesson! The ingredients needed for our fragrant Orange, Black Garlic, and Mustard Shrimp are as follows: fresh shrimp, olive oil (8g), black garlic (20g), sesame salad dressing (2g), orange (half), mustard cream, black pepper granules, white wine (20g), and pretzels.” After washing the prawns, Liao Ning proceeded to remove the heads, shells, and devein them.
“We won’t neglect our prawns like this. Now, let’s peel the black garlic and cut the two oranges in half. Take out the flesh from half an orange and mix it thoroughly with mustard and sesame salad dressing.”
Liao Ning dried the water on the shrimp’s skin and placed them in the pan. She then turned on the heat and fried them until both sides turned golden.
“Remember, everyone, you must dry the skin properly. Otherwise, the prawn meat won’t achieve that delicious taste. Additionally, you need to cook it slowly over low heat!”
Whenever Liao Ning noticed some viewers in the live chat who disregarded her instructions and rushed to cook the dish, she used her popularity to emphasize the importance of patience. Ultimately, she wanted everyone to understand the significance of taking their time in cooking..
