Before the head chef arrived, the manager came first. As soon as he entered the private room, the manager had a headache. He didn't recognize the other people, but he knew Luo Yangping. This was troublesome.
"Childe Luo … What happened?" The manager asked immediately.
"Are you the head chef?" Before Luo Yangping spoke, Li Huailin asked directly.
"No, I'm the manager here. My surname is Zhang." Although Manager Zhang didn't recognize Li Huailin, he knew that the person sitting with Luo Yangping was definitely not an ordinary person, so he replied very respectfully. "Sir, if you have anything to say, you can tell me."
"Of course, the food is terrible." Li Huailin waved his hand and said, "How did you make such terrible food? Are you testing my endurance? "
"Is he going to make trouble?" This was the first reaction of everyone. Li Huailin's words were almost the opening remarks of a troublemaker. It seemed that all troublemakers started like this.
"Forget it." Before Manager Zhang said anything, Jiang Huawen next to him spoke first, "I think the dishes here are not bad. It's indeed the authentic taste of Hua Xia. I haven't been back to China for a long time. This meal is not bad."
"Huh?" Manager Zhang was stunned. He thought it was a troublemaker who was having a headache. He didn't expect that there would be someone speaking for him. This was really strange.
"Not bad at all. It's basically at the level of pig feed." Unexpectedly, Li Huailin said directly without giving him any face.
Everyone's faces darkened, especially Jiang Huawen's. You're not giving me any face at all. What do you mean by that? This welcoming banquet is for me, not for you. I'm the main character, right? Since I, Jiang Huawen, said that it's not bad, then it should be good. You should give me some face, right? However, Li Huailin directly said it was pig feed, which was equivalent to directly slapping him in the face. He didn't give him any face at all.
At the same time, Manager Zhang's face darkened. The Crystal Hotel in the Imperial Capital was also a reputable hotel in the Imperial Capital. You said that the food here was like pig's food. You didn't give them any face at all. You are definitely looking for trouble.
"Sir, I can't pretend that I didn't hear that." Manager Zhang immediately said. After all, they could open a big restaurant here. How could they not have some background? Otherwise, they would have been killed long ago. After saying that, Manager Zhang looked at Luo Yangping next to him, "Young Master Luo, your father just came here for dinner last month and praised our cooking. The dishes are basically the same as today's."
"Yes, yes, I also heard from my dad that the food here is better, so I came here." On the other side, Luo Yangping was sweating profusely. Of course, he knew the background of the Crystal Hotel in the Imperial Capital. They were not to be trifled with. He immediately looked at Li Huailin and wondered what he was up to.
"Of course you can't pretend that you didn't hear it. Otherwise, wouldn't I be talking nonsense?" Li Huailin said immediately. "Why do you look a little unhappy?"
"It's not like that, sir." Of course, Manager Zhang was unhappy, but he couldn't say it out loud. "But everything has to be reasonable."
"So, do you think the food you made is good?" Li Huailin asked.
"I'm still confident in our dishes." Manager Zhang said immediately.
"So, you mean that I'm looking for trouble?" Li Huailin asked immediately.
"…" Manager Zhang wanted to say that he was looking for trouble, but he didn't know who Li Huailin was. Looking at his arrogant look, it would be troublesome if he offended Li Huailin. Although their restaurant had a background, he was just a manager. If something really happened, he wouldn't be able to handle it. Thinking about it, he looked at Luo Yangping next to him, "Young Master Luo, this matter …"
Luo Yangping had a headache. He still hadn't figured out what Li Huailin wanted to do. Is he serious or joking? This matter could be big or small. After thinking about it, Luo Yangping felt that he had to test him a little, so he asked with a smile, "Young Master Li, is it really bad?"
"Of course, do you think I'm joking?" Li Huailin immediately said, "Although my wife is rich, I can't spend money to eat this. Do you really think it's delicious?"
"This …" Luo Yangping didn't know how to answer. They came here to eat mainly to chat. Who really came here to enjoy food? They were tired of eating delicacies. Who would care about this?
As he was having a headache, the door of the private room opened and another person came in. Li Huailin turned his head and looked, "Is it the chef?"
"Yes, I'm the chef here, Chen Tianci." The person who came in was wearing an apron. Of course, it was obvious that he was the chef. "What's the matter?"
"Come, come here." Li Huailin directly waved at Chen Tianci. Luo Yangping, who was watching from the side, was startled.
"Um." Chen Tianci didn't think so much. He walked directly in front of Li Huailin, "Is there any problem with the dish?"
"Come on." Li Huailin directly took a dish from the rotating plate, then put it in front of Chen Tianci and said, "Eat it yourself."
Chen Tianci paused for a moment, then nodded. He took out a spare pair of chopsticks from the side, then took a bite and frowned slightly.
"How is it?" Li Huailin asked.
"The meat was not marinated for a long time, so the taste was not absorbed. The stir-frying time was too long, which caused it to be overcooked. And the vegetables were cooked for too short a time, so they were overcooked …" After all, Chen Tianci was the chef of the restaurant. He could point out a lot of problems with this dish with just one sentence.
"Ten out of ten. How many points do you give this dish?" Li Huailin was a little stunned and immediately asked.
"Four points." Chen Tianci immediately answered.
"So do you think I can be satisfied with this dish?"
"Sorry, sir. It's my mistake." Chen Tianci immediately said. Of course, this dish wasn't cooked by him. In such a big restaurant like the Crystal Hotel in the Capital, if he cooked every dish by himself, he would be exhausted to death. Usually, it was cooked by the assistant chefs. Although they were assistant chefs, they were at least senior chefs. He didn't expect that it would be such a failure. Of course, no matter who cooked it, as the chef, if there was a problem with the dish, it was his responsibility. He couldn't shirk it. Chen Tianci also admitted it very straightforwardly.
Everyone nearby was sweating profusely when they heard that. There was really a problem with the dish. Looking at Li Huailin's manner just now, they really thought that he was here to cause trouble.
"I think you are still an honest man. This, this, this, take these three dishes back and recook them while I still have an appetite." Li Huailin waved his hand and said.
"No problem, sir. I will do it myself." After Chen Tianci said that, he immediately took the dishes in his hand and left. The waiter next to him also immediately followed and took away the remaining two dishes.
"This … this …" Chen Tianci left directly. Manager Zhang had a headache. It was really their fault. What should they do? "Sir …"
"So from the beginning to the end, it has nothing to do with you. Get lost." Li Huailin directly waved his hand and said.
He really didn't call the manager, but the chef. Manager Zhang's face turned black. He held his breath, but he had no choice but to leave.
"…" Everyone was a little petrified. What's the situation?
"So." Li Huailin patted Luo Yangping's shoulder next to him. "I just said that this is really pig's food. Are you really okay after eating it for so long?"
"This … it seems … a little bit …" Luo Yangping really didn't have any problem after eating it. He didn't care about the taste at all. As he spoke, he suddenly saw Jiang Huawen next to him. He instantly had a headache.
That's right. Although Li Huailin said that there was no problem this time, and it was indeed the other party's dishes that had a problem, the way he said it was too problematic. Instead of saying that he was looking for trouble with this restaurant, it was better to say that he was looking for trouble with Jiang Huawen. Jiang Huawen just said that the dishes here were delicious and the authentic taste of Hua Xia. Then, Li Huailin went up and directly slapped his face. Isn't this too disrespectful to Jiang Huawen?
That's right. Luo Yangping saw that Jiang Huawen's face had already turned black. Although Li Huailin was talking to Luo Yangping, everything that he said was completely applicable to Jiang Huawen. Luo Yangping felt that there was nothing wrong with being scolded by Li Huailin, but Jiang Huawen didn't think so. Li Huailin was still his junior. Even if you're right, you should at least give me face. Don't you know how to speak?
"I … I'm going to the bathroom." Jiang Huawen was so angry that he got up and said.
"Hey, Young Master Li, do you really have a grudge against him?" Luo Yangping also took the opportunity to pull Li Huailin and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"
"It's nothing." Li Huailin smiled slightly, then immediately got up and said, "Ah, I'm going to the bathroom too."
"…" Luo Yangping was stunned at first, but he immediately stood up and said, "Then I'll go too …"
"Hold it in." Li Huailin pressed Luo Yangping down with one hand and walked directly to the bathroom.
As soon as he walked to the bathroom door, Li Huailin saw Jiang Huawen standing in front of the sink. It was obvious that the other party was not going to the bathroom, but to calm down a little.
Seeing Li Huailin come in, Jiang Huawen was slightly stunned. Then he frowned. He really couldn't hold it in anymore. Li Huailin had really pushed his patience to the limit. "Wait a minute. I think we need to talk alone about you and my daughter. Do you have time?"
"Oh?" Li Huailin smiled slightly, "Is it very important?"
"Yes, of course it's important," Jiang Huawen said immediately.
"Okay, I see that there is no one in the stairwell over there. Let's talk there." Li Huailin said immediately.
