Chapter 285 Want to Surprise Them
Lu Ran agreed to accompany him to the competition. He was looking forward to it and was very happy to have her company, but she suddenly couldn't go with him, and he felt a little uncertain.

It's not that I blame Lu Ran, it's just that I suddenly lost my sense of support and became inexplicably flustered.

At this moment, he realized that he was so dependent on Lu Ran.

"Don't be angry with me, okay?" Lu Ran stepped forward and got into the man's arms, "I can't go alone, but I will always pay attention to the live broadcast of the game."

"I'm not angry."

"You must enter the finals, so that I can go to the scene to watch you challenge the God of Cookery."

Ji Zebei gave an 'um' forcefully, and secretly vowed that he would enter the finals and defeat Xiao Lan.

-

The day Ji Zebei set off was cloudy and rainy.

The plane was at two o'clock in the afternoon, and Lu Ran couldn't even go to the airport to see him off because of the signing event.

It was Xu Jiajia who took time to send Ji Zebei and Ye Zhian to the airport. Due to the booming business in the store, Xu Jiajia couldn't leave at all, and she couldn't accompany Ye Zhian to the competition.

After watching Ji Zebei and Ye Zhian pass the security check, she called Lu Ran and told him that they had already left.

Ji Zebei and Ye Zhi'an arrived in country M the next morning. They checked into the hotel arranged by the competition committee for the players. It was already evening in country M. The two went to the restaurant for dinner and went back to their room to sleep. After a while, early the next morning, they took the car arranged by the competition committee to the competition venue, where there was a huge crowd of people, there were many spectators watching the competition, and there were cameras everywhere.

Due to the large number of contestants, one hundred people were divided into four groups, and every group of 25 people competed in cooking together.

Ji Zebei, as a contestant who has won the food competition for two consecutive times, has especially attracted the attention of the media. He is the darling of the media and has more shots than other contestants.

As soon as Lu Ran was busy with his own affairs, he went to the new store to watch the live broadcast of the preliminary round of the food competition with Xu Jiajia.

Ji Zebei had many shots, and Lu Ran was overjoyed.

"You see, my husband really has a photogenic face, 360-degree perfect without any dead ends." She said in awe.

Xu Jiajia rolled her eyes at her, and managed to catch a shot of Ye Zhian, and hurriedly said: "Our Ye Zhian is also very photogenic, I think he is the most handsome."

At this time, a waiter came, glanced at the computer screen, and said with a smile: "This may be the legendary beauty in the eye of the beholder."

As guests came to the door one after another as soon as the meal arrived, Xu Jiajia could not watch the whole game, so she could only listen to Lu Ran telling her the result of the game.

"Both of them passed the preliminary round with honors."

Xu Jiajia was very calm on the surface, not as excited as Lu Ran.

She said: "With their strength, it is normal to pass the preliminary round."

"What about the semi-finals and finals?"

"It's not a big problem, but the situation in Zebei..." Xu Jiajia hesitated to speak.

Lu Ran probably guessed what Xu Jiajia was worried about. In fact, she was also worried about Ji Zebei. His sense of taste fluctuates. I don't know if it will affect this competition.

She could only secretly pray in her heart that Ji Zebei would pass the final, she believed he could do it.

Every night at three or four o'clock in the morning, Lu Ran would talk to Ji Zebei on the phone for one to two hours, most of the time was on video.

Due to the time difference, in order not to affect Ji Zebei's rest, she could only wrong herself and cut off a few hours of sleep.

Lu Ran was in other cities for the semi-finals and finals, so he couldn't watch it with Xu Jiajia.

But Ji Zebei did not let her down. He went all the way, reached the final very easily, and entered the final battlefield where he could challenge Xiao Lan.

Of course, as she expected, Ye Zhi'an also came to the end.

Lu Ran's signing session was over, and on the night she returned to Beijing, she couldn't wait to book a plane ticket to country M. The moment she paid, her cell phone rang.

The person calling was Xu Jiajia.

She picked it up, "What's the matter?"

"When will you fly to country M?"

"Tomorrow morning, I have already booked the plane ticket."

"Order one for me."

Lu Ran was pleasantly surprised: "You want to go too?"

"must go."

"In that shop..."

"Whatever it is, the business will be closed for a few days."

"Okay, send me your personal information, and I'll book tickets for you right away."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ran waited for a few minutes, Xu Jiajia sent all her personal information, and Lu Ran immediately booked a ticket for her, but they were not in the same place, and there was still a long distance between them.

This night, she intentionally didn't contact Ji Zebei, wanting to give him a surprise, but Ji Zebei didn't seem to want to disturb her rest, so she didn't take the initiative to call.

She lay down early and had a good night's sleep, and got up early the next morning to pack her things.

After taking a taxi to the airport, she found that Xu Jiajia hadn't come yet, she had come too early.

After waiting for half an hour, Xu Jiajia rushed over, and the two ate something at the restaurant at the airport, passed the security check together, and boarded the plane.

Before the phone was turned off, Xu Jiajia wanted to call Ye Zhian, but was stopped by Lu Ran.

"Did you tell Ye Zhian that we are going?"

Xu Jiajia shook her head.

Lu Ran chuckled, "It's just right, I didn't tell Zebei either, why not give them a surprise."

"alright."

Xu Jiajia turned off the phone directly.

After flying for more than ten hours, they landed.

Lu Ran only focused on booking the first flight to country M, but didn't take into account the time difference between the two countries. As a result, when they got off the plane, they found that it was already midnight in country M.

The two checked their watches, and it was 34:[-] in the morning.

"Which hotel are they staying at?" Xu Jiajia asked.

Lu Ran scratched his head and remembered the name of the hotel after thinking for a long time, because that hotel was booked by the competition committee of the food competition, even if those hundreds of people failed to pass the semi-finals and finals, they can still stay in the hotel and continue to watch Subsequent events, so that hotel is still closed to the public.

"Have you booked a hotel yet?"

Lu Ran smiled wryly, "Forgot."

Xu Jiajia pinched the center of her brows, almost spurting blood from Lu Ran's recklessness.

"How can you forget such an important thing as booking a hotel?"

"Didn't you think of booking a hotel?"

"I thought you'd book it in advance."

"..."

After all, it seemed that it was indeed her fault, and she couldn't refute it.

After leaving the airport, they waited for a long time before a taxi arrived. The two of them drove to the hotel near Ji Zebei where they were staying, and found a hotel to stay in.

It was already so late, they were embarrassed to disturb Ji Zebei and Ye Zhian who were resting, so they simply settled down to sleep first.

They booked a standard room with two single beds.

The jet lag couldn't make it up for a while, and they slept for a long time on the plane, and the two of them lay on the bed and stared at each other.

"Are you hungry?" Lu Ran broke the silence.

Xu Jiajia let out a muffled 'hmm'.

"Let's order room service."

"You call it."

"Your name."

"I'm too lazy to move."

Lu Ran chuckled, "You have to move if you're too lazy, I can't speak English, so I can't order food."

Xu Jiajia: ...
