Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Because they had eaten grilled fish for a few years, the chef had a deep relationship with the couple. However, they suddenly disappeared five years ago, and even Fu Xin didn’t bring her friends over.
In the past, the head chef would often talk to the people in the restaurant about the couple. Later, the manager resigned and the waiters changed. No one talked to him about the couple anymore. The couple seemed to have disappeared from his world. Then there were fewer and fewer familiar people around him, and no one chatted with him anymore.
When he heard that someone had come to ask about the kitchen today, he even said that a very good-looking couple had brought their children to eat grilled fish. The chef’s first reaction was to wonder if the couple had come again. When he came out, he saw that it was indeed the case.
When the head chef saw the couple, his eyes teared up. This was not only a memory for the couple, but also for him. In the past, he had guessed that the couple had gone to another city, or had broken up. They did not want to come to this place again and recall the past. Or had an accident, or had returned to this city one day and brought their baby to eat grilled fish.
Today, his wish had actually come true. Knowing that the two of them had come, the chef had been even more meticulous when roasting the fish. He had even personally come out to deliver food to them just to take a look at them.
“It smells so good!” Fu Xin couldn’t help but lean closer to the plate and smell it. She was about to drool, but she held it in. It was very embarrassing to drool in front of so many people! Then, she looked at the chef gratefully and thought that he was a waiter. “The grilled fish in your restaurant smells so good. Looks like my choice was right.”
The head chef was stunned. “Have you forgotten about me? You used to come here often to eat.” When Fu Xin heard this, her heart skipped a beat. Then, she looked at the head chef carefully. “I’ve been working in this shop for almost ten years. You used to come here often and even went to the kitchen to praise my fish. Don’t you remember?”
The more he said this, the more puzzled Fu Xin became. “I’m sorry, I fell sick five years ago and lost my memory, so I might not remember you.”
However, Fu Xin felt that this chef was very familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before. She didn’t feel that it was a déjå vu now. When she first entered the restaurant, she felt that the menu was familiar, so it shouldn’t be a déjå vu. She must have been here before.
“How are you now?” The head chef couldn’t help but ask with concern. He was more than 20 years older than Fu Xin and had always treated Fu Xin as his child.
Now that he heard that Fu Xin was sick, he started to worry.
“I’m fine now, but it only improved a few days ago,” Fu Xin said. Afraid that the head chef would be disappointed, she continued, “Although I lost my memory, I still like your fish. It seems that my taste hasn’t changed. It’s just that my husband didn’t tell me that I liked to come here before.”
“Okay, okay.” When the head chef heard that Fu Xin had recovered and liked to eat the fish he made, he was relieved and no longer worried.
“Fortunately, you’re still here. Otherwise, I would be disappointed if I couldn’t eat the fish you made,” Fu Xin continued. “Don’t close your shop! You have to continue. Otherwise, I won’t know where to eat in the future.”
Fu Xin praised him so much that the head chef was amused. “As long as you like it. Hahaha! If you praise me like that, I’ll…”
The chef’s mood instantly improved after being praised by Fu Xin.
Fu Xin liked people who knew how to cook, especially those who cooked well. She had an innate sense of closeness to them, so she felt close to the head chef now. Otherwise, Jiang Yi wouldn’t have discovered Fu Xin’s weakness back then. He made delicious food for her every day and conquered her stomach. In the end, he also got her.
Fortunately, the chef was twenty years older than Fu Xin. Otherwise, Jiang Yi wouldn’t be able to sit still now and would definitely feel a sense of danger.
Husband. She had just called him that. He could not help but be overjoyed. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. He quickly picked up the water on the table and took a sip to prevent others from seeing his smile.
Jiang Xinyuan had inherited Jiang Yi’s high EQand was very sensitive to the changes in the emotions of the people around him. He could tell that his father was very happy, but he did not know why he was so happy.
Jiang Xinyuan took a bite of the fish and tasted it. It was indeed delicious.. It was as delicious as what his father made!
