"Of course. I'm always number one at The Kitchen God!" Wuhai answered proudly.
"Alright, I got it." Mr. Wei nodded.
Wei Wei greeted Wuhai as well.
"Why are you here this year? You didn't even come last year." Wu Hai wasn't really curious. He just asked casually.
After all, there was no one in the restaurant. Wuhai wanted to liven up the atmosphere.
"I had something to do last year, but I'm free this year," Mr. Wei said.
As soon as Wei Wei and Mr. Wei arrived, it was as if a switch had been turned on. Customers started arriving one after another.
There was Chu Xiao, who insisted that the world was round and would always pass by Chengdu. As usual, he wore a trench coat with an aloof woolen sweater. Coupled with his aloof face, it was obvious that he was Chu Xiao.
There was also Wang Hong, who was dilly-dallying. The main reason was that Wang Hong had some inspiration before he went out. He felt that he could write several long chapters, but if he did so, he wouldn't be able to spend New Year's Eve at Master Chef Restaurant.
Therefore, Wang Hong chose to write about delicacies. He would just record his inspiration for now. If he really couldn't do it, he could just cancel it.
Yu Sanzhi had also arrived. Su Mei followed closely behind Yu Chu.
This was Su Mei's first time spending New Year's at The Kitchen God. She hadn't been here last year, so she couldn't come for New Year's Eve dinner.
Su Mei's parents treated each other with respect. It wasn't an adjective, but a proper one. It was said that when her parents wanted to divorce, they made the agreement because of Su Mei. Anyway, Su Mei was under a lot of pressure. This was also the reason why she came to The Kitchen God this year.
The food of The Kitchen God was delicious, but the customers who chose to come here on New Year's Eve all had their own stories. Well … Wuhai was an exception.
Other than Su Mei, who was here for the first time, Zhong Xiao Xiao was also here for the first time. Everyone was familiar with each other, so they chatted with each other, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.
"I even had a dream yesterday. I dreamt that Boss Yuan cooked a table full of dishes for me today."
"Forget it. Do you think you are Yuanyuan? Currently, I'm only convinced by Yuanyuan's dream. "
"Sigh, I feel like I didn't do anything last year. A year has passed."
"Who said he didn't do anything? Didn't you gain ten kilograms of meat this year? "
…
Su Mu still couldn't make it back. He could only bite his handkerchief and peep at the screen in the dark. He was so jealous that he was about to lose his virginity.
There were a few fewer interrupters, and a few more new faces. Indeed, flowers are alike every year, but people are different every year.
Ding Ling Clang!
Yuan Zhou used his five senses to listen to everyone's conversation while he prepared the New Year's Eve dinner neatly. He didn't need to open the restaurant, so there were fewer customers, so he could slow down a bit.
"Boss Yuan, what are you having for dinner?" Mr. Wei was curious.
Yu Chu had gathered this information from Wuhai. Every year, there would be no repetition.
"Poached eggs and small round dumplings, one bowl per person," Yuan Zhou said.
"This is delicious. I like it." Wei Wei revealed a smile. It seemed that she really liked it.
"Sweet, sweet. Looks like I can look forward to the new year." Zhong Xiao Qiao's face was full of smiles.
"Yes, yes, yes. I like sweets." Su Mei beamed.
"The year before last, I only had meat dumplings. This year, I can make up for it with sweet dumplings. It's perfect." As Yu Chu thought about it, he suddenly thought of the culprit behind all of this. He stared straight at Wuhai.
Wuhai was originally watching Yuan Zhou cook with great interest, but he suddenly felt the malicious intent behind him. "There's killing intent?!"
After that, Wuhai looked around and didn't find anything wrong, so he turned to look at Yuan Zhou again.
Even if Yuan Zhou deliberately slowed down a little, it was still done very quickly.
"Come, one bowl each. Help yourselves." Yuan Zhou carried out a huge tray, on which there were several big bowls arranged neatly. They were really big bowls, about the size of two bowls of noodles. Besides, the bowls were relatively deep. One could tell at a glance that they could hold food.
The color was also very beautiful. From the mouth of the bowl to the bottom, the colors were light green, dark green, dark green, and the color gradually deepened. The gradual change of green added a hint of green and vitality to this harsh winter.
The white and plump poached eggs had a hint of yellow in the middle. In some bowls, the yellow seemed to be flowing, while in some bowls, the yellow seemed to have solidified. Next to the eggs was a thumb-sized round ball. It was not pure white in color, and if one's eyes were good, they could even see a light yellow color on it.
"It looks pretty," said the representative of the female side.
"It looks delicious," said the representative of the male side.
"Ten mouthfuls," said the representative of the beast side.
Of course, although it was different, all of them gulped down a mouthful of saliva before returning to their seats according to their taste.
Yuan Zhou had already calculated it. Not more, not less, just right.
Wuhai snatched his own bowl. Unwilling to give up, he found that the tray was already empty. He could only mutter, "So Compass's math wasn't taught by a physical education teacher."
"My math teacher is really good at sports," Yuan Zhou answered straightforwardly with his sharp ears and eyes.
Since Wu Hai didn't get what he wanted, he had to finish his Tangyuan first before looking at others. The fine and tender egg white and the slightly tough yolk were quite refreshing to eat. The glutinous Tangyuan was kneaded by Yuan Zhou with some sugar and osmanthus flowers. The texture of the glutinous Tangyuan was both soft and slightly bitter. The sweetness and glutinous Tangyuan were just right. It was so delicious that people would want to swallow their own tongues.
"Gulp."
Wuhai finished the last mouthful of soup and licked the edge of the bowl before putting it down. Then, he turned his head and looked around. However, everyone knew the habits of the black beast. Therefore, everyone's head was buried in the bowl. There was not a single gap between them.
Even the black beast couldn't do anything about it.
Soon, everyone finished eating. Although their stomachs were full, they were clamoring for more food in their hearts.
Actually, it was not a small amount. After all, the bowl was quite big.
"Boss Yuan is really Compass as usual. I won't have a problem even if he has ten more bowls," sighed Wang Hong as he put down the bowl.
"It's just too little." Mr. Wei also felt that he wasn't full.
"You can have more next time," said Wei Wei in a soft voice.
Su Mei and Zhong Xiaoxiao were too embarrassed to speak. However, they subconsciously nodded, revealing their true thoughts.
As for Wuhai, he wished he could cling onto Yuan Zhou and not get off.
Yu Chu and Chu Xiao were more reserved. Yu Chu took out a small notebook and wrote something. The bowl was already very clean.
"It's indeed too little." Chu Xiao put down the bowl in a gentle manner. Of course, there was not a single drop of soup in the bowl.
"French cuisine is famous for its lack of exquisiteness. Chu Xiao really doesn't know his place." Yuan Zhou glanced at Chu Xiao speechlessly. He decided to remain silent.
"Boss Yuan, is that a projector?" Wang Hong's sharp eyes noticed the projector in the corner.
"Yes. A big screen is needed to watch the Spring Festival Gala," Yuan Zhou nodded.
"Looks like I'll have to stay up with Compass during the New Year." Wuhai rolled his eyes and had an idea. He also understood what Yuan Zhou meant when he said that he should eat his fill.
Snacks were definitely needed to watch the TV show. Wuhai expressed that as long as it was food, he wouldn't reject it.
