While eating the noodles, Du Xiaohu kept pressing on his chest so that the soup would not drip on his checkered shirt.
Du Xiaohu had to eat the noodles and press on his chest at the same time. It looked very tiring. Therefore, Jiang Changxi asked naturally, "Do you need my help?"
Jiang Changxi's driving style had always been her style. Moreover, the car was stable and there was no danger of it overturning.
After all, Jiang Changxi was a beautiful girl herself. Talking to another beautiful girl like this would not make people feel disgusted. Coupled with Queen Jiang's temperament, it would only make people feel shy.
Du Xiaohu's pretty face turned red and she almost choked. She quickly said, "No need, Sister Jiang."
"That's good. Don't worry, I'm not that guy Wuhai who wants to eat your noodles. I'm just asking if I need help pressing on your clothes," Jiang Changxi said.
Du Xiaohu's face turned even redder. She quickly shook her head and lowered her head to eat the noodles. She was so shy that she did not even dare to raise her head.
Jiang Changxi smiled and did not say anything. She looked around and saw that all the customers who were looking at her just now lowered their heads in unison.
In Pesticide, the girl had a line called, "Bow to civilization."
Now, it was, "Bow to the Queen."
Yuan Zhou, who was watching the whole thing, was stunned. He thought to himself, "Fortunately, she did not tease me like this in the past. Otherwise, it would be hard to maintain my image as a cold prince charming."
Yuan Zhou selectively forgot those words that he did not understand in the past. He only felt lucky.
Little did he know that Queen Jiang had really slowed down the car in the past. Speaking of which, Jiang Changxi, as a famous business queen in Chengdu and even the whole country, would only drive like this in Yuanzhou shop.
Dinner was over in two hours as usual. Although Yuan Zhou could arrange his own business hours, he was used to it. The customers were also used to it, so they did not change it.
Of course, for Yin Ya, it was different.
That was because Yuan Zhou would basically have dinner with Yin Ya every night after dinner.
Since Yin Ya worked overtime today, Yuan Zhou ate a bowl of Clear Broth Noodle Soup hastily. After feeding Broth and its wife, he went upstairs to wash up.
Now that Yuan Zhou had basically given Shin Min full authority to manage the pub at night, Yuan Zhou didn't close the door when he went upstairs.
After Yuan Zhou washed up, he changed into a set of azure clothes and went downstairs. He saw a few people standing at the door.
There were four people standing at the door. They were all different in height, weight, and weight. They stood at the door seriously, looking a bit like Cheng Men standing in the snow.
However, when Yuan Zhou looked up, he didn't recognize him. He said out of habit, "Dinner time is over. Please come early tomorrow."
"Hello, Head Chef Yuan. We are not here for dinner," said a middle-aged man standing first on the right.
"What's the matter?" Yuan Zhou paid attention. Only then did he realize that these people were here for him.
"Hello, Head Chef Yuan. I am Hao Cheng. My master is Hang Tian, a master of Huaiyang Cuisine. Sorry for my sudden visit," said Hao Cheng respectfully at the door.
That's right. These people were Hao Cheng, Huang Fei, Liu Li, and Wang Qiang who had just arrived at noon. The four of them planned to visit and inform Yuan Zhou before dinner tomorrow. That way, they wouldn't be rude.
Those who reached first were the masters. Yuan Zhou was now a master and they weren't ordinary customers. Of course, they had to follow the rules.
Hao Cheng and the other three people directly treated Yuan Zhou as someone of the same generation as their master, Hang Tian.
Then, the remaining three people also stood at the door and introduced themselves, including their masters and the dishes they were good at. It was quite detailed.
After the three people finished their introductions, they looked at Yuan Zhou expectantly.
Only then did Yuan Zhou say, "Come in and talk."
"Ok. Thank you, Head Chef Yuan," Hao Cheng was the first to step into the restaurant.
"Thank you," said Huang Fei after him.
Wang Qiang and Liu Li also entered the restaurant. However, the four of them didn't sit down. Instead, they stood beside the chairs with their heads slightly lowered, facing Yuan Zhou.
"What are you here for?" Yuan Zhou asked straightforwardly.
The four of them looked at each other before Hao Cheng spoke, "Head Chef Yuan, the four of us admire your culinary skills. Recently, we heard that you released a new dish, Jiangsu Cuisine. That's why we summoned our courage to come here to taste your dishes, hoping to find the flaws in our culinary skills."
Actually, Hao Cheng felt somewhat embarrassed when he said that. What they were doing was similar to stealing someone's skills. But if they didn't say anything and just came to eat, it would be even more disrespectful. Therefore, they braced themselves and said it.
"You want me to cook for you alone?" Yuan Zhou asked solemnly.
"No, no, no. That's not what I meant. We want to start lining up to eat tomorrow. We know your rules and will definitely not violate them," said Hao Cheng.
"Yes, that's right. Don't worry, Head Chef Yuan. We will definitely abide by your rules," said Huang Fei nervously due to Yuan Zhou's solemn tone.
"I'm really sorry," Liu Li looked at Yuan Zhou's youthful appearance and felt even more embarrassed.
Wang Qiang looked at the three people beside him and then thought about himself. Only then did he understand. Although he had greeted them, he couldn't say that he had told them and that it wasn't wrong for him to take the dishes.
In other words, they were stealing someone's skills. Not to mention in the culinary world, stealing someone's skills was a serious matter no matter what.
Only now did Hao Cheng and Huang Fei understand. Instantly, they felt embarrassed and couldn't help but blame themselves for being so impulsive.
They had originally planned to report their arrival to Yuan Zhou. But after arriving here, they realized that their intentions were not pure. Their thoughts were too childish.
Hao Cheng, Huang Fei, and the others should have informed their masters. Then, their masters would explain it to Yuan Zhou. If Yuan Zhou agreed, they could come over.
The process was a little complicated, but learning was never easy.
Hao Cheng and the other three suddenly became kindergarteners who had made a mistake. They stood there blankly, not knowing what to do.
Yuan Zhou looked at the four of them who had changed from excitement to awkwardness and said directly, "Those who come to eat are all diners, and they are only diners."
"But we want to learn how to cook Jiangsu Cuisine," said Huang Fei, who was the youngest among them.
"Are you going to line up to eat tomorrow?" Yuan Zhou did not answer this question. Instead, he asked directly.
"Yes," the four of them nodded and answered softly.
"No matter who you are, you are all customers in the restaurant. I won't ask you if you can learn something or get some experience from it," Yuan Zhou affirmed again.
Seeing that Hao Cheng was about to speak again, Yuan Zhou said, "The four of you are not the only ones here. As long as you follow the rules, you are all my diners. Do you understand?"
"Yes," the four of them answered subconsciously.
"Alright, it's getting late. Go back," Yuan Zhou waved his hand to drive them away.
"Yes, Head Chef Yuan," the four of them answered in unison again. Then, they turned around and walked out of the restaurant.
The moment they walked out of the restaurant, they felt the hot and stuffy air outside. The four of them immediately came back to their senses. They looked at each other in dismay and were speechless for quite a while.
"Head Chef Yuan's aura is so strong. I thought he was facing my Teacher's father," said Liu Li with lingering fear as he patted the fat on his belly.
"I have the same feeling. I didn't dare to refute what Head Chef Yuan said. It was like the first time I met my master," said Hao Cheng.
"That's true," Huang Fei and Wang Qiang nodded.
The four of them remained silent for a while before looking at the lantern hanging at the entrance of the restaurant with the words "The Kitchen God" written on it. After a while, Wang Qiang asked, "Are we still coming tomorrow?"
"Of course. Head Chef Yuan said that as long as we follow the rules, we are all diners," Huang Fei took a deep breath and said firmly.
"I think so too. As long as we don't disturb Head Chef Yuan," Liu Li nodded.
In the end, the three of them looked at Hao Cheng, waiting for his decision. After a while, Hao Cheng said, "I think we should come again. But we have to thank Head Chef Yuan after we finish learning."
"Of course," the three of them nodded.
"Speaking of which, Head Chef Yuan is really magnanimous. He doesn't put up any defenses and isn't afraid that other chefs will surpass him," said Liu Li.
The moment he said that, Hao Cheng, Huang Fei, and Wang Qiang looked at him as if he was an idiot.
"Hey, what's with your expressions?"
Huang Fei, Hao Cheng, and Wang Qiang said in unison, "Can you surpass Head Chef Yuan?"
"Eh …" Liu Li was instantly speechless. Then, he patted his head, realizing that his thoughts were too stupid. Surpassing Yuan Zhou? Liang Jingru had truly given him the courage to do so.
Would Yuan Zhou be afraid that others would steal his skills?
In other words, could someone surpass Yuan Zhou?
