Chapter 628 - 584: The Perfect Pairing of Starry Skies and Low-Temperature Slow-Roasted Steak

"Boss, are we ready yet?"

"Almost there."

"Hehehe, I can’t wait."

"Hmm, it’ll be ready soon."

As Wang Fan kept pushing Zhuo Qianqian’s little head away from the grill, he said with a hint of indulgence, "Keep your distance, you might get burned."

"I don’t want to either, but it smells so good!"

After muttering to herself, Zhuo Qianqian took a deep breath, letting the rich smell of the meat fill her chest.

It was already 8 PM, and after finishing their afternoon activities, Wang Fan drove to Red Rock Peak, which was where they were going to stay for the night.

Red Rock Peak is located in Laba River Town of Luding County in the Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, a place not considered a scenic spot yet has scenery that rivals any.

It’s not considered a scenic spot because it hasn’t been developed and doesn’t charge entrance fees, but it’s considered a scenic spot because its beauty is unparalleled.

The two didn’t have to hike; the car could drive up directly. Opening the panoramic sunroof, they could comfortably enjoy the breathtaking starlit sky without any light pollution.

Wang Fan vaguely remembered how beautiful the night skies were when he was a child.

Whenever the moon was full, it felt so big like it was hung right over him, and it was extraordinarily bright. Without streetlights, you could still see the road.

Later, as households became brighter and skyscrapers rose, the moon lost its presence, and even stars became barely visible. The serene feeling of sitting on doorstep counting stars as a child still fascinates him now.

Zhuo Qianqian knew he had this fondness, which is why she found them this special place, close to Luding Bridge without much effort.

Watching stars as a kid meant resting chin on hands without snacks, not because he didn’t want to, but they were too poor to afford snacks. Now that conditions have improved, he wouldn’t deprive himself, especially with a girlfriend who eats more than him.

This was planned ahead, so when they bought meat in the afternoon, he specifically chose beef brisket and beef ribs and marinated them early to slow cook in the oven.

However, the meat he bought was not yak meat but Australian wagyu. Yak meat has lower fat content, not suitable for slow cooking.

The beef had been roasting for over four hours, and the RV’s kitchen was already filled with a rich meaty aroma, mixed with a hint of milky fragrance.

"Alright, time to eat."

Wang Fan put on gloves and took the tray out of the oven, with two foil-wrapped silver mounds on it, a heavy feel indicating that the meat inside was substantial.

Zhuo Qianqian asked while setting the table, "Boss, should we start the live stream? Last time at Sayram Lake, your fans loved watching the starry sky."

Wang Fan thought for a while, "Why not, taking a moment to relax and stargaze could help with the stress from work."

"Alright, I’ll inform them in the group and on Weibo."

Suggesting a live stream, Zhuo Qianqian didn’t have any other motives, except fans showing such support meant giving back with good views seemed fitting.

After sending notifications in the group, she took a stand from the cupboard and set up the live stream camera.

The enthusiasm from the fans was high for Wang Fan’s second live stream.

"Got tired of superficial content and cheesy videos, looking for a change of pace, I’m here to support you, Boss Wang."

"Although Boss Wang rarely interacts in his streams, the tranquility is unlike any other channel."

"Absolutely, and this time it’s the starry sky again. Last time I watched the sky all night without sleeping and felt great the next day."

"I’m quite the opposite, watching the sky helped me sleep peacefully, feeling one with nature with the sky as my blanket and the earth as my bed."

The comments started off well but suddenly shifted.

"I just... whoa!"

"Whoa! As expected, Boss Wang never disappoints with dog food that fills you up and food that tempts you to death!"

"Darn it! Get your hands off my steak! I’m going to start licking the screen now!"

"Hey there, stop licking, I’ve already licked it; it’s my steak now!"

"Holy... is this the legendary American slow-cooked steak?"

The main reason for this reaction was the screen that had been pitch black suddenly lit up.

Lighting up is fine, but facing the stars wouldn’t spark such fierce reactions, yet the video showed Wang Fan busy cutting meat.

A large piece of slow-cooked beef brisket was about to be eaten, and naturally needed to be sliced first. Right now, Wang Fan was just in the position, one hand stabilizing the beef brisket, the other holding the knife.

Seeing the camera she misaligned, Zhuo Qianqian stuck her tongue out apologetically and quickly said, "Oops, I’ll aim the camera at the stars."

"Hey! Wait!"

"Hold on, Boss Lady! We don’t want to see the stars now, we want to see something more lively!"

"Don’t move the angle! It would be better if it zooms in a bit!"

Seeing the continuous stream of comments, Zhuo Qianqian felt the fans were somewhat masochistic, and couldn’t help but ask, "Is it tough to see without eating?"

"Boss Lady, you’re underestimating us a bit, just this dark lump, I can handle it."
