Chapter 2016

Yuan Zhou’s words were concise and to the point. It was just a short sentence, but the people in the audience could feel the sincerity and low profile in his words.

The big boss’s cooking skills were already at this level, but he still said that he was working hard. The key was that one could hear that he was speaking the truth and not being humble.

What else could he say? He handed a cigarette to the boss.

Well, Yuan Zhou didn’t smoke.

“Pa pa pa”

As soon as Yuan Zhou finished his words, everyone started clapping.

“There’s no limit to cooking. It just depends on whether you work hard or not. I hope we can work hard together and let the customers eat more delicious food.” Seeing so many pairs of eyes staring at him, Yuan Zhou added one more sentence.

He had obtained a silver spoon of Lu cuisine. He had already completed half of the main mission ‘Master of Masters 3’. He was still short of the wasted stove of Cantonese cuisine and the experienced chef of Sichuan cuisine.

At the end of the speech, Qin Hua sighed. He had already performed beyond his normal limits, but he was still filmed. He was a little depressed.

However, after watching the process of Yuan Zhou cooking the delicacies, Qin Hua was no longer depressed.

For the next part of Yuan Zhou’s journey, Zhou Shijie and the others took him to the place where they had the exchange yesterday. They planned to continue the exchange in the following days.

After all, Yuan Zhou had only applied for three days of leave. Everyone knew that he had bought the flight ticket for tonight. If they didn’t hurry up now, when else could they wait?

As for the other chefs, many of them had come from other places. At this time, the big shots had already left, so they naturally left as well.

Of course, as they dispersed, they were still discussing everything that they had seen today in groups of three to five. Their words were excited, and they were dancing with joy. Those who didn’t know would think that these people had won the competition.

It was quite lively around Yuan Zhou. When several people gathered together, wherever Yuan Zhou was, there would be no lack of culinary exchanges.

As for Taoxi road without Yuan Zhou, it was a different situation. Although it was still full of people, master chef Restaurant was not open for business and thus, the orderly line was no longer there.

They turned back to Taoxi road.

“Why do you suddenly want to eat at master chef Restaurant today? isn’t boss Yuan having a rest day?” The tall girl was walking in a hurry, and she immediately saw that the girl with bangs was also walking in a hurry.

“Uh … I don’t know why, but I suddenly feel like eating it.” The girl with bangs felt helpless.

“Maybe he didn’t want to eat it when he was here, but when he heard that boss Yuan asked for leave, he suddenly wanted to eat it.” The tall girl said.

Many people were like this. They didn’t want to eat it when they were there, but after closing for a few days, they instantly wanted to eat it.

The two of them disappeared from Taoxi road.

Not long after the two girls left, a young man passed by. He was an employee of a nearby supermarket. Every day during lunch, he liked to take a detour around Taoxi road to look at master chef Restaurant. It had been in operation for two or three years.

Of course, he was different from the previous two girls. He had never entered the restaurant to eat, nor did he want to eat. He just liked to see the lively master chef Restaurant open there, and he felt very comfortable.

Now that Yuan Zhou was on leave and master chef Restaurant was closed, the young man felt that there was something wrong with him. If he didn’t walk around Taoxi road, he would feel that today’s day wouldn’t end.

“Rustle, rustle, rustle.”

Yuan Zhou was seriously jotting down something in his notebook. This was the experience he had gained after he had finished communicating with several Lu cuisine Masters. There were some things that needed to be recorded. Since there was still some time, he planned to write them down first in case he forgot something.

“That’s about it. That’s all I got. I’ve gained quite a lot this time. It was worth it.” Yuan Zhou put away the notebook and pen and put them away properly.

Seeing that it was getting late, she began to pack her things and checked out, planning to rush to the airport.

Previously, Zhou Shijie had even said that he would arrange for someone to send Yuan Zhou to the airport. He would only be able to go back after a few days, but he was refused by Yuan Zhou.

He didn’t need to involve so many people for small matters as he could handle them by himself. Yuan Zhou felt that he shouldn’t trouble others.

After he arrived at the airport, Yuan Zhou first reported to Zhou Shijie that he was safe and told him the time he would arrive in Chengdu. Then, he reported his schedule to Yin ya.

Originally, Yin ya had intended to pick Yuan Zhou up. Although Yuan Zhou said that it was unnecessary, she had unfortunately gone on a business trip today and had already left Chengdu for another city at noon.

After chatting with Yin ya for a short while, it was time to board the plane. Yuan Zhou quickly boarded the plane back to Chengdu according to the instructions.

As long as they got on the plane, time would pass very quickly. Not to mention, it only took a little more than two and a half hours to get from quancheng to Chengdu, so they arrived very soon.

“I still feel that the air in Chengdu is warm.” Yuan Zhou dragged his luggage and walked out of the airport terminal.

He felt that even the slight cold wind was comfortable. At this time, the temperature in Chengdu was relatively high. It was usually above 15 degrees in the day and around 10 degrees at night. It was neither hot nor cold, which was a good time.

He casually called for a car and rushed towards Taoxi road. With the brother’s cordial conversation, the originally not long journey seemed to be even shorter.

“Sir, we have arrived at Taoxi road. Please take care of your personal belongings and safety when you get off the car.” The brother stopped talking.

“Thank you,” he said. Yuan Zhou paid the money and then walked towards Taoxi road with the luggage that he had taken out from the trunk.

It was already 11 O’ clock at night. It didn’t rain in Chengdu that night, but there were only a few stars in the dark night sky. Walking in the back alley, if it wasn’t for the occasional light and the dim street lights, it would be pitch black.

It was worth mentioning that in the past, most of the street lamps in the back alley were broken. Even after the street office repaired them several times, they were still old and broken. After that, the repair time would be longer and longer. However, ever since Yuan Zhou had single-handedly built up the entire Taoxi road, the street office had been paying great attention to both the front Street and the back alley. Therefore, the street lamps had always been in good condition.

“Woof woof woof”

With the warm welcome of the rice, Yuan Zhou stepped into the master chef Restaurant from the back door. As for broth, he didn’t know if he had seen it wrong, but he kept feeling that this guy was getting lazy again.

The first thing Yuan Zhou did when he got to the second floor was to take out the silver spoon and put it together with the box under the signboard of the saber King.

Then, he put the other things he had brought back one by one, put the dirty clothes into the washing machine, cleaned up his personal hygiene, and finally, reported his safety to his wife.

After everything was done in an orderly manner, Yuan Zhou finally lay down on his bed.

“There’s still some time. I can read two pages before I sleep. ” Yuan Zhou checked the time and made a decision.

“The lights are on. He should be back. We can finally eat tomorrow. I’m going to sleep first. It won’t be good if someone takes my first place.” Lying by the window, Wu Hai finally felt relieved when he saw Yuan Zhou’s room turn from dark to bright.

Wu Hai, who had been starving for three days, was capable of doing anything. It was a piece of cake for him to lean against the window and look at the light.

“Pa”

When it was time, Yuan Zhou turned off the lights and entered a deep sleep with the help of the system.

The night began to quieten down. Other than the chirping of insects, it could be said that it was completely silent, and no other sounds could be heard.

At least, this was the case in Taoxi road. The working hours of the shops here were closer to that of master chef Restaurant.

[Author’s note: when it comes to Taoxi road, I suddenly feel like I’ve been writing about this Street for three or four years. Hahaha.]
