Seeing Qiu Chengye embarrass Xie Mi like that, Liu Woxing stepped forward to speak without hesitation.
"Mr. Qiu, there's no need to have so little faith in Teacher Xie. Perhaps her cooking wasn't very good before, but that was a long time ago. Since she passed the Production Team's test, that means her cooking must have improved."
"Besides, isn't there another person on duty? They'll be working together, after all. It won't be as bad as you're making it sound."
