There were times when one really shouldn't talk too much about someone. If they did, they might just appear. Lin Wan and Juan really did want to come for dinner, but it was a pity that they were going to come alone. They were destined to be unable to take on the heavy responsibility of completing the mission.
Yuan Zhou, who was busy preparing the ingredients for dinner, wasn't aware of this as well.
"Uncle, slow down. Even if we have to line up, we can't walk too fast. Don't worry, we'll definitely make it." A handsome young man with a tall and straight figure walked forward with his long legs while reminding Hong Yundong who was walking forward with his short legs in front of him.
It was not that Hong Yundong was too short. He was at least 1.7 meters tall, which was above average in the South. However, this actually depended on who he was compared with. If he was compared with the young man a few steps behind him, it would be hard to say.
With a height of 1.9 meters, he looked tall and had long legs. Moreover, he had a good figure. He had probably trained before. Even the way he walked was similar to a runway.
"Wuzi, since you're back, do as the Romans do. You'll need to line up to eat at Head Chef Yuan's restaurant. Hurry up," Hong Yundong looked at his grandson in disdain.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was going to drink wine later, he wouldn't have allowed Hongwu to follow him. After all, there was only so much Monkey Wine. He was reluctant to give away even a single drop.
However, the relationship between him and Hongwu's grandfather was even closer than that of biological brothers. After so many years of not seeing his grandson, Hongwu's grandfather had to welcome him as an elder. Thinking of the delicious food he had eaten in the morning, Hong Yundong brought him to Master Chef Restaurant for a meal.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I also ate Chinese food in Spain, so I'm very familiar with Chinese food. I'm used to it, so I won't have any problems getting used to it," Hongwu explained carefully. After all, he was an elder, and it wouldn't be good if he misunderstood.
"Of course I know. If your grandpa were to eat food from other countries, he would flip the table." Hong Yundong knew his old brother very well.
Hongwu didn't want to hear the gossip about his grandfather. If his grandfather knew about it, he would definitely chase after him with a walking stick. Therefore, he took advantage of his height and saw the lively scene not far away from him to change the topic.
"Are we here?" Hongwu looked at the crowded scene in front of him and felt a little cold sweat. There were a lot of people in the queue.
"This is bad. Let's hurry to line up and see if we can eat." Hong Yundong came back to his senses and immediately knew that something was wrong.
In the morning, he had already asked the very polite Old Lu about the rules. He told him that he had to queue up early, or else he wouldn't be able to make it.
At first, Hong Yundong thought that if he couldn't get a chance to eat, he would just eat something else with alcohol. However, after eating a super delicious breakfast, he immediately changed his mind. If he couldn't eat such top-notch delicacies from time to time, he felt that even alcohol would lose some of its flavor.
"If I really can't eat, I'll just bring Wuzi along when I drink." Hong Yundong looked at the long line and made up his mind.
He kept reminding himself that as an elder, he had to be more magnanimous. Finally, his mood improved a little. Hong Yundong was extremely proficient in using the Ah Q mentality.
Of course, these intense thoughts didn't hinder his actions at all. Soon, Hong Yundong led Hongwu to the end of the line and directly stood there.
"Grandpa, is the food in this restaurant delicious? I feel like there are a lot of people here." Although Hongwu grew up abroad, he was still quite familiar with the situation in his country.
He had a grandfather who was always nostalgic. Even when he was forced to move abroad, he still missed his hometown very much. As a grandson, he naturally had to follow his grandfather's thoughts.
However, this was the first time Hongwu had seen so many people lining up together. He was inevitably a little surprised.
"Head Chef Yuan is known as the best chef in Asia. There are so many people here. I wonder if we can eat here," Hong Yundong said.
He actually hoped that he could eat here. Otherwise, he might not be able to keep his alcohol. In the morning, when they drew the red ball, Zhu Dakang and the others didn't get any. Therefore, they all tried to get some alcohol for free.
In the end, Zhu Dakang won and got a spot from Hong Yundong. However, he had something to do at the last minute and couldn't come for dinner.
After giving up one spot, Hong Yundong firmly held his bottom line and refused to give up the second spot. Now, he looked at his tall grandson and felt that he might not be able to keep his spot either.
Reality proved that it was useful to cram at the last minute. At least, Hong Yundong and Hongwu didn't waste their time even though they were at the end of the line. They could finally heave a sigh of relief.
"There are so many people eating here," Hongwu lamented when he looked at the number of people lining up and then at the entrance of the restaurant.
"Of course. Head Brewer Yuan isn't only good at brewing alcohol, he's also good at cooking. It's normal for there to be a lot of people here." Now, Hong Yundong admired Yuan Zhou very much. He had already turned into a little fan of Yuan Zhou's.
"Grandpa, this head chef is not only good at cooking, but he's also good at brewing alcohol?" Originally, Hongwu didn't suspect anything. But when he heard Hong Yundong talking about Yuan Zhou, he instantly had a good impression of him. But now, he was getting more and more ridiculous. How could a single person know so many things?
"That's not all. Head Chef Yuan is also good at this in the ice sculpting industry." Hong Yundong gave a thumbs up and lamented, "Old Zhu is right about one thing. No matter what, Head Chef Yuan is the best in the country."
He had done a lot of homework. Therefore, he knew a lot about Yuan Zhou. The more he knew, the more he admired Yuan Zhou. There was actually such a talented person in this world.
Although Hongwu didn't dare to refute his grandfather's words, he felt that the achievements that his grandfather had mentioned were probably just some knowledge and not proficient in anything. His grandfather must have admired this person too much, and the filter was too thick.
Speaking of which, it was true that Yuan Zhou was good at brewing alcohol. After all, he was very clear about his grandpa's identity. No matter how thick his filter was, he was still a professional when it came to alcohol.
Hong Yundong didn't know that his grandson was overthinking and was still rambling. He was mainly regretting that there was no one to inherit his and his brother's legacy. His grandson had chosen another path. Although his grandson was a famous model and was said to be quite famous in Spain, it didn't make sense that there was no one to inherit the family business.
As they were the last few people in the queue, the waiting time was extremely long. Especially when Hong Yundong wanted to eat and drink without any delay, he couldn't wait any longer.
The world couldn't be changed by one person's will. After waiting for more than an hour, the number of people in the queue gradually decreased.
"This is too hard. Although it's orderly, is it worth it to wait for so long just for a meal?" Hongwu muttered inwardly. The waiting time was too long.
Looking at Hong Yundong, who was still very spirited in the queue, he could only bury his thoughts in his stomach. He had to respect his elders in this aspect.
