Everyone who was paying attention to this competition witnessed the presence of a stunning woman on the podium. Her hair was a beautiful shade of white, complemented by her captivating blue eyes. As her lips parted slightly, her gaze met the gentle eyes of an elderly man with white hair. “Zhu Ying is my late grandmother, and I am her granddaughter, Liao Ning.”

“She… passed away…” The news of his friend’s demise momentarily struck the old man with disbelief. His voice softened instantly. “She truly had no heart, not even willing to inform me or Su Tang.”

“Passing away from old age is a natural part of life. Grandma departed peacefully. Please don’t be too sorrowful,” Liao Ning comforted gently.

After a long pause, Elder Jiang once again looked at Liao Ning with his weathered yet wise eyes. ‘You possess exceptional qualities, much like your grandmother Zhu Ying did in her youth. When I tasted your dishes, I felt as if she were present… Let’s not dwell on the award ceremony any longer!”

Hearing these words, the emcee breathed a sigh of relief. The director had been urging him to hasten Elder Jiang’s presentation of the award to avoid disrupting the plan. However, the emcee dared not intervene with Elder Jiang. Fortunately, the old man remembered that it was time to present the award.

“Now, let us invite Elder Jiang to present the award to our champion, Miss Liao Ning!”

The emcee’s voice reverberated through the loudspeaker, reaching every corner of the audience. Sensibly, the audience started applauding.

After Elder Jiang presented awards to the second and third place contestants, the emcee called upon Liao Ning and Elder Jiang to stand at the center of the stage.

“Miss Liao, what are your thoughts on winning the food competition this time?”

Taking the microphone from the emcee, Liao Ning beamed with a bright smile. “I owe my achievements today to my brother. If he hadn’t entrusted his son to me before his passing, I might never have entered the food live-streaming industry, let alone receive everyone’s love by chance and earn a spot in this competition. I am truly grateful to all those who support me. Thank you!”

Liao Ning bowed deeply to the camera and the audience gathered at the event location.

The emcee, being a seasoned host, recognized the audience’s curiosity about Liao Ning’s brother and followed her lead. He continued, “Miss Liao’s brother must be an exceptionally insightful person to have entrusted his son to such an outstanding sister, wouldn’t you agree?”

“Yes, my brother is an incredibly influential individual. He has made remarkable contributions to the Alliance, and I have always looked up to him.”

The emcee seized the opportunity and inquired, “Given his notable contributions to the Alliance, I’m sure many of us are familiar with his name. Miss Liao, would it be possible for you to share?”

Liao Ning’s lips curled into an even brighter smile as she responded. However, her next words left everyone in shock. A few individuals who had been closely following the competition displayed expressions of resentment.

“Certainly. My brother is none other than Liao Jun, the youngest general in the history of the Alliance. He is also the most brilliant mecha designer in the military district of the capital. His expertise in mecha is unparalleled. Even the military school in the capital utilizes his past publications as teaching materials for aspiring mecha students.”

“However, eight years ago, my brother was tasked with leading the mecha brigade to the frontline battlefield of the Skoma Galaxy for a crucial reinforcement mission. He successfully turned the tide of a battle that seemed destined for defeat, enabling the Alliance to repel the invaders and defend the frontlines.”

“Sadly, due to the excessive strain on his mental strength, he suffered from incurable aftereffects. After being honored with the title of general, he had no choice but to retire.”

“Most of you must be familiar with that battle—the renowned Battle of Skoma.”

Liao Ning’s words created a seismic impact. The audience and viewers of the live stream erupted with excitement. Countless memories of the Battle of Skoma flooded their minds.

Naturally, with the mention of the Battle of Skoma, various incidents associated with that battle resurfaced in the collective memory of the Alliance citizens, including the scandal involving the Wei family’s counterfeit mental strength potion.

“Oh my goodness, General Liao is the fearless individual who turned the tables in the Battle of Skoma!”

“Today I finally understand why General Liao’s name was absent from the textbooks that only mentioned the Battle of Skoma.”
