Chapter 139:  Invitation to Su Bai & Cui Luoheng's Upcoming Schedule

?

Su Bai was genuinely surprised that someone would invite him.

"...All the athletes competing on the field are from our team. I'm just a coach, and I don't even need to be present at the scene. No one would recognize me."

Su Bai was well aware that he had been interviewed and had made appearances in the previous variety show 《 Athletics Idol Training Camp》. However, he wasn't a participant in the show, and as a coach, he didn't have many on-screen appearances. In reality, his screen time was quite limited.

Furthermore, after that variety show, he had been staying with the track and field team. Whether it was the indoor competitions before or this recent Asian Championships, he hadn't accompanied the team.

Given his habit of staying inside the track and field team's facilities every day, how many viewers would recognize him? What was the point of inviting him?

Liao Jie looked at Su Bai's puzzled expression and shook his head with a smile. "You, this guy, are young but act like an old-fashioned person. You've been spending too little time online. There are quite a few viewers who recognize you now."

"Uh..." Su Bai was taken aback by this statement. "I've been staying with the track and field team and haven't gone out much..."

Liao Jie immediately took out his phone and opened a video, handing it to Su Bai.

Su Bai received the phone, not understanding what was going on, and took a look. He was surprised to find that it was a compilation of videos of himself cooking during every meal in the Athletics Idol Training Camp.

It was a highlight reel that not only included all the footage from the entire variety show but also supplemented it with some video clips from when the sports channel had live broadcasts at the national team's camp.

Starting from the rising smoke, the video showcased each dish being prepared. The director's team had perhaps put their lifelong artistic skills into filming this cooking part. Almost every movement of Su Bai's knife, his meticulous handling of ingredients, and his skillful presentation were captured on film.

The steam rising from the hot pot seemed to act as the perfect natural filter. As the camera zoomed out slightly to the mid-range, you could see a slender silhouette amidst the drifting steam, diligently handling the ingredients in hand and carefully preparing exquisite dishes.

Such a video, even if you couldn't taste the delicious food, would keep viewers watching repeatedly. In the end, one couldn't tell whether they were watching the food or the person making it.

After watching the video, Su Bai was left in a daze. He hadn't expected that his cooking on the show would be edited into such a segment. Moreover, Liao Jie had shown him the video on the barrage comment platform, where he saw various embarrassing comments.

Comments like 【 prpr, I can lick Coach Su's hands for ten thousand years!!!】 or 【 Wuwuwu, why isn't Coach Su a participant? I also want to vote for Coach Su!!!】 and 【 QvQ Coach Su, please host a cooking show. I want to eat... oh, watching is fine too!】 were among those that he could tolerate.

But there were many comments that left Su Bai feeling embarrassed, such as...

【Ahhh, Coach Su, I want to give birth to monkeys for you!】

【Wuwuwu, darling, marry me. I'll buy you a big house, and you can cook for me, okay?】

Su Bai used to have a somewhat reserved and introverted personality, especially during his time in the S Province track and field team. His only close friend at the time was probably Qiu Wen.
