"There's no need, Master. I can go back myself," Yuan Zhou rejected immediately.
It didn't feel right for a man to send him home. If it was a girl, he might consider it.
"Cough, cough." Yuan Zhou choked on his own thoughts. He looked at the men in the yard and extinguished his thoughts.
"I'd better go back early to open the restaurant. Yin Ya seems to be coming in the evening." Yuan Zhou immediately turned his head and thought inwardly.
"There's no need. It's only right for your junior to be closer to your senior," Carpenter Lian said without hesitation.
"Master, you're being biased after having Senior Yuan Zhou," Ma Xiao couldn't help but say.
"Master, you're being biased after having Senior Yuan Zhou," Ma Xiao couldn't help but say.
Ma Xiao choked again. He looked at Yuan Zhou helplessly.
"Master, I'll be leaving first. I'll come back tomorrow," Yuan Zhou said.
"Sure, come back in the afternoon. I know you can't leave your shop," Carpenter Lian nodded.
"Goodbye, Master," Yuan Zhou said goodbye.
"Then I'm going to see my new senior brother off." Ma Xiao immediately sent Yuan Zhou out of the door.
"This brat. He's already in his thirties and forties, but he's still so scared of me," Carpenter Lian shouted in dissatisfaction and walked back to his workshop.
Halfway there, Carpenter Lian turned around and went to the shop in front to pick up his antique phone. Then, he walked back to his workshop.
On the other hand, because of Yuan Zhou's firm refusal, Ma Xiao only sent Yuan Zhou to the door and watched him leave in a taxi.
"Master, you actually took in a disciple without saying a word, and he's a chef," Ma Xiao sighed.
It was rare for Carpenter Lian to be happy. The usual serious expression on his face was gone, especially when he picked up his phone to make a call. His eyes were filled with pride.
Not long after the call was made, an ear-piercing beep sounded. He was waiting for someone to pick it up.
Carpenter Lian dealt with wood all year round and had to saw wood from time to time, so his hearing wasn't good. However, this antique phone didn't have this problem. It was very loud, and Carpenter Lian had put it on speaker.
The phone rang for about four times before it was picked up. An old and powerful voice came through the phone line. "Blockhead Lian, why are you calling me?"
The voice was distorted by the volume, but it was still recognizable as Zhou Shijie's voice.
That's right. Carpenter Lian was calling Zhou Shijie. His purpose was clear. He wanted Zhou Shijie to show off. He wanted Zhou Shijie to show off that Yuan Zhou was his disciple now. Zhou Shijie had always been showing off in front of him.
Moreover, it was a disciple who would be holding the apprenticeship ceremony in three days. He could openly show off.
"I have good news to tell you," Carpenter Lian said patiently.
"What's so good about you, blockhead?" Zhou Shijie teased with a hint of laughter in his voice.
He could tell that Zhou Shijie was very relaxed. He was even joking with Carpenter Lian.
"You'll definitely like it. Treating you to a meal is a good thing, right?" Carpenter Lian smiled proudly.
"A stingy old man like you will treat me to a meal? I'm afraid you want me to cook for you, "Zhou Shijie said with a look of" I won't fall for it ".
"Who wants you to cook for me? I'll have an apprentice to cook for me in the future," Carpenter Lian said disdainfully.
"Oh? Which apprentice of yours can cook? "Zhou Shijie was a little curious.
Carpenter Lian's apprentices were either in the furniture factory or in the carpentry industry. In short, they were all people who worked with wood. There was no way he would specifically ask someone to cook for him.
"I have a new apprentice. He's a chef, and he's very good," Carpenter Lian said proudly, unable to suppress his pride.
"Chef? Why would a chef want a blockhead like you to be his master? "Zhou Shijie suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Of course, it's because he's eager to learn. The bowls and decorations he makes are pretty good now," Carpenter Lian deliberately didn't say the person's name and waited for Zhou Shijie to guess.
"Do I know this apprentice?" Zhou Shijie suddenly asked.
"Of course you do. He's the leader of the young chefs," Carpenter Lian said this on purpose. He wanted to see Zhou Shijie's annoyance.
"Are you talking about Yuan Zhou?" Zhou Shijie's tone changed.
"Today, Yuan came to me to have a look at his new woodwork. After that, he wanted to be my disciple no matter what," Carpenter Lian said without blinking.
"Don't flatter yourself. What can you teach Yuan? Piss off, piss off," even though Zhou Shijie knew that Carpenter Lian's words were exaggerated, he still couldn't help but fly into a rage.
"Hmph, the apprenticeship ceremony will be held in three days. I'm inviting you to the ceremony," Carpenter Lian snorted and said firmly.
"Yuan really became your disciple?" Zhou Shijie took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down.
"That's for sure. Little Yuan was the one who personally prepared the banquet for me, his master," Carpenter Lian said proudly.
After Carpenter Lian finished speaking, the other side of the phone quieted down. Only Zhou Shijie's heavy breathing could be heard. After a while, an earth-shattering roar came from the other side.
"You old blockhead, just you wait. I'm going to tear down your shop right now. Don't run away," Zhou Shijie hung up after roaring.
"Hmph, I'm going to piss you off this time," Carpenter Lian snorted proudly. He wasn't angry even though his phone was hung up.
"Zhong Lili, Lili, come in and arrange a car to send me to Lian Mutou's place," Zhou Shijie stood up and shouted after hanging up.
On the other side, Zhong Lili, who had heard Zhou Shijie's roar, immediately responded and went to make the arrangements.
"Good, Lian Mutou. Just you wait. I'm going to tear down all the wood in your body today. Let's see if you still dare to poach from our cooking world," Zhou Shijie didn't care about anything else. He opened the door and rushed downstairs.
Just as Zhou Shijie got into the car, Yuan Zhou got into the car as well. He was very happy about the matter of becoming Zhou Shijie's disciple.
Of course, he didn't know that Carpenter Lian had already shown off to Zhou Shijie and made him so angry that he rushed over. According to Yuan Zhou's plan, he was going to call Zhou Shijie personally after dinner time to tell him about this.
After all, this was his personal matter. It wasn't good to call him during Zhou Shijie's working hours. Zhou Shijie was so angry that he didn't even think of calling Yuan Zhou. He just wanted to beat Lian Mutou to death.
"With someone to teach me, there won't be any problem with carpentry. However, I still have to consult Master Flying Finger about ceramics," Yuan Zhou said to himself.
The system displayed, "A hidden mission has been triggered. Host, do you accept it?"
"Mission?" Yuan Zhou asked in his heart without changing his expression.
The system displayed, "Yes. Host, do you accept it?"
"Of course I accept it. I haven't done any mission for a long time, except for the random tests," Yuan Zhou said directly.
The system displayed, "The mission has been released. Host, you can check it now."
"Check," Yuan Zhou closed his eyes slightly and pretended to be resting. Then, he started to check the mission.
