At dinner time the next day, Yuan Zhou prepared a table of ingredients for the flower banquet in advance. This was a celebration banquet that Yin Ya invited her colleagues to eat. Naturally, it couldn't be sloppy.
Yuan Zhou wanted to let Yin Ya's colleagues personally feel how happy it was to have a boyfriend who was a master chef.
However, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. Yin Ya's colleagues had already packed up their things and prepared to come, but the sudden news that they had to work overtime came. Therefore, the flower banquet had to be postponed.
"How late will you work overtime tonight?" Yuan Zhou asked.
On the other side of the phone, Yin Ya gave him an approximate time. It was as late as usual.
Yuan Zhou said, "What do you want to eat? I will cook something for you tonight after I finish my work here."
Then, Yin Ya definitely didn't want Yuan Zhou to be too tired. Therefore, her first reaction was to refuse.
Yuan Zhou agreed readily and promised that he wouldn't come if he was tired. But actually, after hanging up the phone, Yuan Zhou started to think about what to bring there in the evening.
Not long after thinking, Yuan Zhou thought of it and then started the business.
The customers had already lined up in advance and there was no problem with the order.
"Morning, Boss Yuan. Long time no see." Zhuang Xinmu was the first to enter the restaurant. She greeted Yuan Zhou first and then sat down.
Although she hadn't been here for a long time, Zhuang Xinmu knew that Yuan Zhou was extremely focused when cooking and wouldn't reply to her.
Zhuang Xinmu came to The Kitchen God alone with her child. She looked quite serious.
At first, she thought she had quarreled with Wu Zhou. Therefore, some regular customers who knew her in the restaurant asked her about it with concern.
However, Wu Zhou was on a business trip recently and Zhuang Xinmu was watching a very cruel and heart-wrenching TV series at home. That was why she looked so serious.
Therefore, Zhuang Xinmu came to The Kitchen God with her child to relax.
Wu Zhou and Zhuang Xinmu's child was already two years old. Yuan Zhou liked the child very much. After all, the child's name was given by him.
As the leader of the naming circle, Yuan Zhou was most satisfied with the fruit of love between Wu Zhou and Zhuang Xinmu.
After dinner, Zhuang Xinmu didn't leave immediately. Instead, she stayed and chatted with her friends whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
"Boss Yuan, how are things with Xiao Ya?" Zhuang Xinmu asked Yuan Zhou.
"Of course it's great. They're already discussing getting engaged." Speaking of Yin Ya, Yuan Zhou's lips curled into a faint smile.
"Oh? Are you getting engaged? " If Zhuang Xinmu hadn't asked, she wouldn't have known. Now that she asked, it was a big piece of news, which attracted the attention of all the little friends present.
"Boss Yuan, you're getting engaged?"
"I feel like I've heard something incredible."
"There must be an engagement party."
"Why didn't I know about this?"
The scene immediately burst into an uproar. Everyone was talking at once, and the main character, Yuan Zhou, could not get a word in edgewise.
When the little friends' voices became lower, Yuan Zhou continued, "I'm still choosing the date. There will definitely be an engagement party. I'll send invitations to you at that time."
"It's good that there will be an engagement party. It's not a matter of eating or not. The main thing is that I feel such a serious matter must be taken seriously." Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches with an earnest expression on his face.
Yuan Zhou glanced at Wu Hai. Why didn't he believe it?
Not only Yuan Zhou, but also Jiang Changxi, Fang Heng, Sister Xian, Wang Hong, and the others present didn't believe it.
"After the engagement, they'll get married. Of course, there must be a wedding party." Did Wu Hai have such a thing as shame? Therefore, he completely ignored everyone's gaze and continued, "When you're going to get married, you must tell me one or two months in advance. I'll prepare a big gift."
"Boss Yuan and Xiaoya's relationship is really good. It makes me want to fall in love sweetly," Zheng Xian said.
Fang Heng looked at Zheng Xian and then said, "Sister Xian, you belong to the type of single who only knows how to talk. You say that you want to have a sweet relationship, but you don't act on it. Even if others chase after you, you reject them."
After being exposed, Zheng Xian's face turned slightly red, but she quickly covered it up and said, "Xiao Fang's courage has grown recently. He even dares to tease your sister."
"I don't dare, I don't dare." Fang Heng quickly shook his head.
Because Zheng Xian and Fang Heng often drank alone, their relationship was quite good.
"I said long ago that Boss Yuan and Yin Ya are super compatible," Wang Hong said.
Yuan Zhou nodded and looked at Wang Hong approvingly. Ever since this young man's writing was not a flop, his words were much nicer.
"Oh right, Wang Hong, what about the reader girl who chased after you before? Is she still in contact? "What Fang Heng mentioned was the red bean incident from before.
Wang Hong was immediately pissed off. That was because that reader girl really ignored him after she found out that he cooked the red beans into porridge …
Hence, Wang Hong glared at Fang Heng fiercely.
This could be said to be a joke that The Kitchen God could not get over. Suddenly, the inside and outside of the pub was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
The group of people chatted for a while. The pub was about to open for business, so they left separately.
"It's quite late now. You still have the child with you. I'll send you home," Jiang Changxi said to Zhuang Xinmu.
"Will it be too troublesome, Sister Jiang?" Zhuang Xinmu hesitated.
Jiang Changxi knocked on Zhuang Xinmu's head and said, "I'm the child's godmother. I don't want anything to happen to my goddaughter at all."
As she spoke, she led Zhuang Xinmu away. Mao Ye was already ready to welcome the customers who had drawn the lottery.
Zheng Xian and Fang Heng did not draw the lottery today, so they could only use Fang Heng's bamboo liquor to deal with it. The two of them walked to the pub one after the other.
"To be honest, the love between Little Ya and Boss Yuan is really sweet. It's really good and enviable to be in such a relationship now," Zheng Xian said.
Fang Heng said, "Sister Xian, you can do it too."
"What can I do? There's no one chasing after me recently." Zheng Xian pouted.
"There will be someone, as long as Sister Xian is willing," Fang Heng said immediately.
"Alright, let's not talk about this. Little Fang, have you prepared the dishes to go with the liquor today?" Zheng Xian directly changed the topic.
Fang Heng nodded and said, "Of course, no problem.
The pub opened smoothly, and the old rules were still the same. Yuan Zhou used this time to boil a bowl of soup in the kitchen, then carried the food box to Yin Ya's company.
Although he had sent dinner and supper to Yin Ya many times, the things that Yuan Zhou brought had never been the same.
After Yin Ya got off work, he sent Yin Ya home. On the way, Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya discussed the engagement again.
After sending Yin Ya home, Yuan Zhou also returned to the pub. After washing up, he read for half an hour as usual and then went to sleep.
In his sleep, Yuan Zhou suddenly had a dream. After he was woken up, he stared blankly for a while and then quickly took out a small notebook from the drawer of the bedside table to record it.
It was not a nightmare, but a very constructive dream. How many great artists and writers had been inspired by dreams?
"I'm really a smart guy." Yuan Zhou praised himself.
Previously, Yuan Zhou had been planning how to promote Cantonese cuisine. After all, he was now the honorary vice chairman of the Cantonese Cuisine Association.
It was actually very simple to create a big event with Cantonese cuisine. Just like the tea party and the pastry party, it could become a big event in the circle of chefs.
But that wasn't what Yuan Zhou wanted. Yuan Zhou's original intention wasn't to promote Cantonese cuisine in the circle of chefs.
To put it bluntly, this method was suitable for Yunnan cuisine. As for Cantonese cuisine …
It could be found in the eight major cuisines of China, the five major cuisines, and the four major cuisines. Therefore, the status and popularity of Cantonese cuisine in the circle of chefs didn't need to be promoted at all.
In his dream just now, however, Yuan Zhou thought of a promotion activity that all customers could participate in. Precisely speaking, even those who didn't come to eat at The Kitchen God could participate in it.
Excited, Yuan Zhou was about to call Zheng Jiawei. Before the call went out, he realized it was 2: 00 in the morning. It wasn't good to disturb him at this time.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow." Yuan Zhou restrained the excitement in his heart. Most people should have such an experience. They suddenly thought of an idea in the middle of the night and then wanted to carry it out as if a cat was scratching their hearts.
Yuan Zhou restrained himself. After all, he had to open the restaurant tomorrow, so he had to have enough sleep.
