It was getting colder in December. Luckily, the weather in Chengdu was quite mild. One only needed to wear a coat and a long-sleeved shirt inside.
The girl in front of the cultured man was wearing a thin white sweater, a dark blue shirt inside, a pair of fashionable pencil pants and a pair of white sneakers.
She looked quite youthful and beautiful.
Feeling that someone was behind her, the girl turned her head and looked at him. Then, her white face became a little rosy.
The cultured man raised his head and pushed his glasses up nervously. However, he still revealed a smile carefully.
The girl blushed even more. "Hua", she turned around vigorously and stood still obediently.
Just like that, the two of them waited in line silently. They didn't leave the line even after they got the number.
As the breakfast time was relatively short, the two of them stood in front of each other like that with a faint smile on their faces.
It seemed that waiting in line was also an enjoyable thing.
In a little while, the two of them entered the restaurant and sat down together tacitly.
"Thousand Layer Mantou is provided today. Would you like two servings?" Zhou Jia went up and asked with a smile.
The two of them didn't look at each other but just looked ahead. However, they nodded their heads at the same time with the same intention.
"Ok. One moment, please. It will be served in no time." Zhou Jia didn't hesitate. She went to carry the dishes to them habitually.
It seemed that it wasn't the first time for them to come here.
While eating the Mantou, the cultured man ate very slowly and looked over secretly from time to time.
The girl who was eating at the side almost buried her face in the plate. However, the Mantou in her mouth tasted sweet.
When the breakfast time was about to end, Yuan Zhou uttered.
"A new dish will be served at noon today. Those who are allergic to seafood can't eat it." Yuan Zhou didn't say anything, but once he opened his mouth, it was a big move.
"There's surprisingly a new dish? That's great. I have to come earlier at noon. "The first reaction of the customers was to come earlier at noon.
"How lucky we are to meet Boss Yuan to inform us in advance. It seems that I have to buy a lottery ticket." Ling Hong said with a teasing expression.
"That makes sense. What kind of seafood will Boss Yuan serve at noon?" Wu Hai revealed a curious expression.
"I want to know the price." Ma Zhida had a new plan recently. He couldn't eat until he was full, so he asked pragmatically.
"What's the name of the dish?" a customer asked with concern.
As soon as Yuan Zhou threw out this big news, the diners instantly became excited, and all kinds of questions came one after another.
The gentleman even said in a low voice in the noisy environment, "I'll come for a new dish at noon."
He seemed to be talking to himself, but it also seemed like he was talking to the girl beside him.
The girl lowered her head as if she didn't hear anything. She didn't react, but her face, which was covered by her hair, turned red.
Yuan Zhou, on the other hand, stood there quietly. When there were fewer questions, he said, "You'll know at noon. See you at lunchtime."
After saying that, Yuan Zhou bowed slightly, and Zhou Jia finally seized the opportunity to see him off.
"Everyone, breakfast time is over. Please!" Zhou Jia raised her hand.
"I have a feeling that this kid is up to no good. What do you think?" Ling Hong said to Wuhai as they walked.
"That's true. It doesn't conform to his character to tell us the new dish in advance." Wuhai looked at Yuan Zhou suspiciously.
However, Yuan Zhou's face was still prim and proper, without any expression.
What a joke! Yuan Zhou had specially practiced that.
As soon as the customers left, Yuan Zhou sat down with a sound of "Hua".
"In this way, it won't be a problem to ask for leave during the competition." Yuan Zhou revealed a manner of "I'm very smart".
That's right. The reason why Yuan Zhou informed them in advance today was that the time of the competition had come out.
Yuan Zhou calculated and found it would take at least two days. Therefore, in order to make up for it, he served the new dish frankly.
"I'm a good person." Yuan Zhou looked at the kitchen and muttered to himself earnestly.
Of course, there was no one else here. If others saw him, they would think that Yuan Zhou was retarded.
This time, what Yuan Zhou cooked was still the same three foreign cuisines that he had drawn. However, it was a French cuisine that was universally acknowledged as romantic and delicious.
"Speaking of which, system, is it really okay to put the shrimps and the shells in the same water tank?" Yuan Zhou looked at the water tank in the kitchen and felt quite puzzled.
The mussels provided by the system were still in the water tank this time. The problem was that the main ingredient of the Phoenix-Tail Prawns, the shrimps, were also raised in the water tank.
The system displayed, "Aquatic products will all appear in the water tank."
"Will the fish be like this in the future?" Yuan Zhou pointed at the water tank and revealed a surprised expression.
The system displayed, "Aquatic products are no exception."
"You are using black technology! If it were a bullfrog, would it also be thrown into the tank? "Yuan Zhou couldn't help ridiculing.
The system displayed, "Bullfrog is an amphibious animal."
"Don't change the topic! The water tank is so small. How can it be put in? "Yuan Zhou simply wanted to turn into a roaring emperor.
However, the system disappeared again and there was no news.
After waiting for quite a while, he found the system didn't answer him. Yuan Zhou let out a sigh and went up to check the mussels.
"It's really inside."
Looking at the shrimps jumping happily at the side and the mussels opening and closing at the side, Yuan Zhou was quite speechless.
"Luckily, the two of them can coexist peacefully. It would be fun if they fought each other." Yuan Zhou let out a sigh of relief.
He just thought that if the tank was really full of aquatic products and they fought each other because of their incompatible habits, the scene would be so beautiful and unimaginable.
For example, tiger shark, king cuttlefish, swordfish … Speaking of which, there seemed to be no dishes for them.
Looking at the two species coexisting peacefully, Yuan Zhou suddenly thought of a fatal problem.
"System, the mussels must be fresh to cook this dish. If the mussels die, we can't cook it!" While saying that, Yuan Zhou went up to take the net bag and started to fish out the mussels.
The system displayed, "The ingredients provided by the system are the best in the world. The mussels won't die."
The system used bold and black words to say that, which were quite conspicuous.
"The mussels are marine products while the Phoenix-Tail Prawns are freshwater shrimps. Do you think they won't die if we put them together?" Yuan Zhou said angrily.
Even his voice sounded flustered and exasperated in the mask.
Indeed, it would be a pity if such beautiful purple mussels died.
After quite a while, the system displayed, "Host, don't worry."
"I forgot you are the system." Yuan Zhou stopped his action of fishing the mussels for a few seconds and then reacted.
This guy was an expert in black technology. That might not be a problem for it at all.
"Cough cough. It's getting late. We should start to prepare." Looking at the mussels that were fished out, Yuan Zhou said naturally.
There was only Yuan Zhou in the restaurant, so the atmosphere wasn't awkward at all.
Turning the head and looking at the water in the water tank, Yuan Zhou had the intention to drink a mouthful of it and have a try.
"It can surprisingly feed both freshwater and seawater shrimps." Yuan Zhou ridiculed.
After putting the mussels aside and spitting out the sand, Yuan Zhou started to study the water tank.
This water tank was the one used during the system's renovation. He had never expected it to have such a function.
"Maybe I can write a novel. The water tank of my house is connected to the rivers, lakes and seas." Looking at the water that was scooped out, Yuan Zhou said unconsciously.
Yuan Zhou was thinking about all kinds of imaginative things. Luckily, the alarm clock at the side rang.
The mussels had finished spitting out the sand. He could start to cook now …
