I'm the Culinary God-Chapter 714 - 321: The Strongest Highlights in History! Dundun: I will take away your ’holy sh*t’ in three seconds! [Subscribe Please]_3
Dou Wenjing’s 32D was equivalent to a 34C, and Shu Yun’s 36C was equivalent to a 34D. After doing the math and considering the conversions, her own 34B, which she had originally thought was decent, suddenly seemed to be at the very bottom of the pile.
Alas, the once-college belle of Communication University had now descended to the bottom of the pecking order. My apologies to my alma mater; I’ve brought shame upon you.
Geng Lele, who had tagged along, tossed a pool ball in her hand and said, "You guys are so boring. Grown-ups, yet no different from kindergarteners... Dundun, don’t look at them. Watching them too much might lower your IQ."
Dundun had initially been quite interested in watching the aunties playing around. Upon hearing this, he immediately turned his round, furry head aside.
Zeng Xiaoqi: "..."
Dou Wenjing: "..."
Shu Yun: "..."
This kid is too smart, isn’t he?
Not long after, Director Shen came over and said to everyone, "Let’s start shooting. I think if we turn off all the surrounding lights and leave only a few hanging incandescent bulbs above the pool table, it will create a better atmosphere."
The incandescent lights had lampshades, which perfectly directed all the light onto the pool table. When the surrounding lights were turned off, the entire pool table seemed to be shrouded in darkness, giving it an air of mystery.
After the test, Zeng Xiaoqi said repeatedly, "The boss lady’s directing skills are impressive; the video suddenly looks much more high-end."
Once everything was ready, Shen Baobao arranged the pool balls and then placed Dundun on the table, saying, "Son, in three seconds, blow these aunties’ minds!"
As soon as he was on the pool table, Dundun pawed at the cue ball and pushed it hard. It struck the arranged stack of balls squarely, not from the side. All the balls scattered at once, and three sank into the pockets.
Zeng Xiaoqi, who prided herself on her pool skills, couldn’t help but let out an unladylike curse, "Damn!"
Shu Yun and Dou Wenjing also gasped in amazement. They had never expected Dundun to play like that.
Geng Lele, on the other hand, who had been somewhat bored, now had bright eyes, her gaze filled with surprise.
Such a smart cat. I can chat with him when I’m bored in the future.
Truly worthy of being our Holy Master. So impressive!
After that, Dundun played pool merrily. At times, he would roll around on the table, kicking the surrounding balls away; at others, he pushed the black ball as if navigating an obstacle course, weaving through the scattered pool balls. When he got really excited, he even stood upright and tried to mimic human walking. However, the pool table wasn’t smooth enough. After a few steps, he felt tired and went back to playing with the balls aimlessly.
Everyone around was dumbfounded.
Good heavens, is this really a cat?
"Dundun has always been clever," Shen Baobao explained, "but not exceptionally so. Animals trained in circuses are even more impressive than Dundun."
Shen Baobao chose to film the pool scene not only to capture more Dundun-related content while he was trending but also to let her own staff witness Dundun’s amazing abilities firsthand. This way, her staff wouldn’t be overly shocked when the videos went online, sparing them from freaking out before the netizens did.
Once she explained, everyone felt it made sense. After all, many trained animals could perform arithmetic or ride bicycles; simply learning to walk and play pool didn’t seem that miraculous in comparison. Still, it was quite impressive that a little cat could be so clever.
It feels like we can’t deceive Dundun anymore.
"Honestly, it’s wrong to deceive a child in the first place. Dundun, I’m your Aunt Zeng. May I shake your paw?" Zeng Xiaoqi extended her fair right hand towards Dundun. He crouched and hesitated for a moment before finally extending his own right paw and lightly touching hers.
"Wow, hahaha, he actually shook my hand! Dundun’s paw pads are so soft, and they feel so good to touch. His fur is so smooth and silky too..." Zeng Xiaoqi was chattering when Dundun pulled his paw back.
Shaking paws is one thing, but were you trying to make a move and take advantage of this cat? Woman, please have some self-respect!
「On the other side」
After Lin Xu finished the lunch rush, while everyone else was cleaning the kitchen, he took his keys and returned to the residential complex behind the restaurant. He turned on his computer and found the video he had made the previous night. He cut it in the middle, splitting it into two parts, then added an intro and outro. After generating the video, he uploaded the first part to the short-form video platform.
To attract viewers, he crafted a particularly catchy title: "The behind-the-scenes footage you asked for is here! Dundun: In three seconds, I will blow your minds!"
After uploading, he patiently waited for it to be reviewed. Before long, the video appeared on Lin Xu’s personal feed. To increase engagement with the topic, he also shared the video under the relevant discussion thread and pinned it.
In the video’s comment section, he pinned another message: "This video is in two parts. The second part will be released after this one gets over 500,000 likes—it’s even more thrilling and explosive! This message was edited by Dundun; please forgive any typos."
Yes, phrasing this message as if Dundun wrote it made it seem even more mysterious.
As soon as the video was released, netizens who had been eagerly awaiting an update swarmed in.
"Such a bold title! Let me see what this video is all about."
"I hope Lin Boss isn’t just a clickbaiter."
"As long as Dundun is in it, who cares if it’s clickbait or not?"
"Exactly! As food lovers, we adore Dundun."
"Hey, person above, are you implying our Dundun is an ingredient?"
"OH MY GOD! Hurry and watch the video! My perception of reality has been shattered! How can such an intelligent cat exist in this world? Was he a professor at a film academy in his past life?"
"Lost his mind in under a minute! Take him away! Next!"
"Aaaah, Dundun is incredible! See? I told you the Holy Master of our Meow Meow Sect was no ordinary cat!"
"What’s going on? Another one’s gone mad?"
"..."
On the afternoon of the second day of the National Day holiday, countless viewers who opened the video were stunned by Dundun. He performed whatever the people in the "meeting" discussed, hardly behaving like a cat at all.
Boss Lin’s cat is truly amazing, isn’t he?
In the barrage of comments, countless exclamations of shock scrolled past, so dense they sometimes completely obscured the video.
Under the Lin Ji’s Food topic, more and more people also chimed in, sharing their reactions after watching the video. The topic’s popularity continued to soar.
Finally, at half-past three in the afternoon, it successfully topped the Yanjing Region topic chart.
While Lin Xu was working in the kitchen, a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind:
"Congratulations to the Host for completing the main mission [Fame]! You have received: one Perfect Level Lost Dish draw, one Perfect Level Dry Pot Dish draw, one Perfect Level Raw Pickled Dish draw, three Perfect Level Cooking Learning Cards, and one thirty-minute Special Tool Experience Card!"
"The popularity of the Lin Ji’s Food topic has surged into the top twenty nationwide! You have received one Perfect Level Cooking Technique draw. Congratulations to the Host."
Huh? Why did it come with an extra reward?
