As soon as Yuan Zhou finished speaking, before Yuanzi could even cheer, a very soft voice asked, "If you're allergic, does that mean you can't eat breakfast today?"
Originally, Yuan Zhou's words were just a formality. No one refused to eat the food he made. However, it was indeed his first time making taro breakfast. Moreover, there were quite a number of people who were allergic to taro. For example, Director Wan, who often came to eat and drink, was allergic to taro. However, he craved the taro chicken very much, so every time he missed this dish, he would bring others to eat together. Even if others ordered the dish, he wouldn't eat it. He would just look at the dish and smell the aroma.
In fact, Director Wan only did this after he suffered a loss. Previously, he would order the taro chicken himself, and then he would eat the chicken while others ate the taro. However, even so, he would still get some spots all over his body when he returned home. Although it wasn't serious, he didn't dare to eat the chicken inside the taro chicken anymore. Instead, when others were eating it, he would eat braised chicken, green pepper chicken, dry pot chicken, and a series of other chicken dishes. It was also considered an alternative form of compensation.
With such a precedent, Yuan Zhou was naturally cautious. He didn't expect to meet one so soon.
Although the voice was soft, it was very unusual in The Kitchen God. All the diners turned to look, wanting to know who the unlucky person was.
If it wasn't unlucky, then what was? It wasn't easy to queue up for a meal, but she actually had an allergy. Nothing could be more tragic than this.
What greeted everyone's eyes was a face with some baby fat and a pair of round almond-shaped eyes. At this moment, perhaps because she was slightly panicked, her eyes were even rounder. Coupled with her little chubby face, she looked even more innocent and ignorant.
In fact, Tong Kui was indeed a little frightened. She was a little timid to begin with, so it was more appropriate to say that she had the courage of a mouse.
Originally, she didn't plan to say it and eat it secretly. After all, there shouldn't be much taro in the taro bun. Perhaps she wouldn't be allergic. However, what Yuan Zhou said later dispelled her thoughts. It wouldn't be good if she was found out and blacklisted, so she could only bite the bullet and ask.
Although she was mentally prepared, being stared at by so many people at the same time was enough to make her feel helpless.
At this moment, Yuan Zhou said, "It's okay. If you're allergic, you can eat ordinary buns. Only the skin is different, and the fillings are the same."
In order to ensure that the customers could eat 100 servings of breakfast in one go, Yuan Zhou made 100 servings of taro buns and a dozen steamed buns made of wheat flour just to deal with such a situation.
When Tong Kui heard this, a smile immediately appeared at the corner of her mouth. The dimples on her cheeks were faintly discernible. At a glance, one could tell that she was really happy.
Seeing that no one else raised any objections, Yuan Zhou began to take out the steamers one by one and placed them at the side of the partition, waiting for Su Ruoyan to bring them over one by one. Everyone had a steamer, so there was no need to fight over it.
Yuan Zi, who had just firmly believed that he had won, had his joyous mood interrupted by Tong Kui, but it didn't stop him from showing off.
"Look, even Boss Yuan said that it's taro buns today. It must be small buns. I've won. You guys get ready, I'm coming for lunch at noon. Wahahaha."
Perhaps he was too proud of himself, he almost laughed like a pig. No one else could do this. In fact, although Yuan Zi believed in his intuition, he had never won once. Seeing that victory was in sight, he naturally couldn't help it.
It was already the result of his restraint that he didn't run a few miles like Fan Jin.
The Golden Retriever and the others completely maintained a polite and not awkward smile. Although according to experience, Yuan Zi was most likely going to lose, no one dared to speak until the last moment to avoid being slapped in the face.
Most of the steamers were yellow-green and emitted white steam. Only Tong Kui's steamer was turquoise. Compared to the yellow-green, it looked even more verdant and fresh under the contrast of the fog.
Yuan Zi didn't have the energy to pay attention to this. As the steamer got closer and closer, his eyes became more and more passionate. His heart also began to pound, and he seemed especially excited.
"Pa."
The steamer was placed on the table. It was a very soft sound, but in Yuan Zi's ears, it sounded like a morning bell and evening drum.
Yuan Zi wasn't afraid of the heat. He reached out his hand and immediately revealed the buns inside. There were only two of them, and they were even bigger than a fist. They were squeezed into the steamer, and the entire steamer was stuffed to the brim. There wasn't a single gap, and it made people feel bad for the buns. The space was too small, and they couldn't display their full potential.
The buns weren't as white and plump as normal buns. Instead, they had a slightly translucent texture. The surface looked very slippery, and it wasn't white either. Instead, it was slightly pink. Pink white, pink white. Although there wasn't much pink, because the white color was very eye-catching, it naturally stood out.
The buns looked very handsome, but Yuan Zi was very quiet. The difference between before and after was too big. Even the optimistic Yuan Zi couldn't come back to his senses.
"Hahaha, I didn't think I would be so lucky. It really is a big bun. It looks like my way of thinking is the most similar to Boss Yuan's. This is great." The golden retriever was very excited.
If it wasn't for the fact that the occasion wasn't right, he might have done a hula dance to celebrate. It wasn't because he was happy about winning the competition. Although he was happy, it wasn't enough to make him excited. It was just a few meals. Winning or losing wasn't important.
What was important was the meaning behind it. Winning the competition was equivalent to having a proper clash with Yuan Zhou's way of thinking. Who was Yuan Zhou? He was definitely the idol of the new generation. No one could compare to him. Thus, whether it was the golden retriever, Yuan Zi, or the Tibetan mastiff, they all placed great importance on this result.
"I was so close. It must have been because you misled me. Otherwise, my intuition told me that the winner would definitely be me." Yuan Zi said with a serious expression.
That was what he really thought. His intuition wasn't wrong. He knew that today's breakfast would definitely be buns. However, the golden retriever chose the big bun, so he could only choose the small bun. He couldn't choose the same as the golden retriever. Otherwise, if people misunderstood him as having the same IQ as the golden retriever, it wouldn't be worth it.
The golden retriever was in a good mood, so he didn't mind Yuan Zi's words. Plus, the fragrant smell kept enticing him, so he didn't have time to pay attention to it. He directly stuck his eyes onto the taro bun.
He reached out his hand to pick up the bun. Although the surface was slightly hot, the bun itself was very slippery. The golden retriever almost didn't pick it up the first time and slid down. With his first experience, the golden retriever had to use a bit more strength to pick it up the second time. However, because of this, he could feel the smooth and chewy texture of the taro bun.
"Oh, so slippery. I wonder if it tastes good."
The Golden Retriever couldn't wait to take a bite of the bun. The skin of the bun was smooth to the touch, but it didn't change even when it reached the bottom of his teeth. The first bite was like biting on jelly, but the inside was very soft. In the end, the rich gravy burst out of his teeth.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss."
The golden retriever couldn't help but hiss at the hot taste. However, he didn't want to give up at all. He forcefully took a big bite into his mouth.
