Chapter Title: A Journey to Remember (2)

Chapter no. 18

(Qin Zetian's POV)

The journey went fine and we arrived safely to our destination. The market and my home has a good distance apart since large families aren't usually situated near crowded places. But with all the greens and the living things you'll pass on the way, you'll finally understand what it means to live in the present. And why we strive to keep ourselves alive.

"Young miss everyone is already seated at the ballroom hall as you instructed"

"Thank you for your hard work shopkeeper Sheng, please tell the kitchen to serve the dishes"

Shopkeeper Sheng is one of my trusted aids in running this massive restaurant. He is well versed in accounting works and management. He is one of my father's people and butler Zhang highly placed his recommendation on him. So I'll assume that he works efficiently.

"The food will be a surprise right?" Princess Roushi's eyes never failed to twinkle when food is mentioned

"Yes your highness it will be a surprise, so let's head over. Everyone must be waiting for us."

She nodded and we climb the staircase.

When we arrived at the room each of the guests has a surprised face. The room is wide and well decorated. The marbled-floor is specially made so it sparkles like you walking on a mirror. The open sliding-glass windows let the cool breeze greet its visitors. The ceiling has large customized-chandeliers and light illuminating stones that is comparable to the stars that twinkles in the sky. The concrete walls were painted in the lightest shade of green that looks so soft. And the red carpet at the stage looks so fluffy that will make you want to roll on it.

The curtains were embroidered in floral patterns. And the tables have marble tops, the chairs have foam pads on each of the seats and the dining wares are made out of the finest glassware and stainless steel. There are table napkins and chopsticks too. The people around me are incredibly amazed by the western idea that I have, mixed with traditional Chinese table setting, and the usage of most architectural ideas from the modern world. Even I did not think that this is possible.

There is also a terrace with a glass shed where you can see the blooming forest and the bustling streets of the capital. The landscape outside is refreshing to look at while the fences and the trees exuded an eco-vibe.

"Ze'er, this place is magnificent! It feels like those place I read in books suddenly came true!"

"I am really proud of you!" my father stated as he laughed, while my uncles joined him. Which is kind of foreign to me, seeing everyone here with me; makes me miss my home.

My mother became teary eyed, and it feels so good to see my sisters and my brothers in complete attendance. The third, fourth and fifth prince are all here. As well as some of my family's closest friends. It touched me that my siblings gave time in coming here. This is the very first time that I have experienced this feeling, the feeling of belonging into a happy family like every child's wish.

"Today we are here for the food tasting premier, which will serves as a gathering that celebrates the success of completing my first project in business. Next week, we will be having the formal opening of the restaurant to the public. And I would also like to thank everyone for coming and joining us in this event. Sit back and enjoy"

"This place is very wonderful" Madam Chen said

"It is the very first time that I saw a restaurant as good as this" My aunt Mo said

"I thank the madams for their praises, it is a privilege to gather everyone here. Now let us serve the menu for today and as well as the delicacies, I hope I'd get non biased opinions about the menu later, for a short evaluation intended to improve our service."

From the menu there are different types of food; Asian, European and American cultures were examined and combined with another sets of food to keep combo meals delicious yet easy to digest. Women in this era care about their appearance and the calories that their food contains, while men at this era cared about protein and muscle building nutrients.

"For the ladies each set of the meal is thoroughly prepared to enhance wellness, it contains less calories, it is easy to digest, non-fattening, not too oily and not too greasy. For the men what we serve are body and muscle enhancers, it should be good for the bones too and non-fattening. For the tea and wine classes, these are prepared under medicinal excerpts that helps in digestion, detoxification and good for the liver."
