Early the next morning, Zhong Lili came to the company directly. She put down her handbag and started to deal with the documents on the desk.
Her assistant Cheng, who came a little later, also put down the breakfast in his hands and sorted out the itinerary carefully.
However, he knitted his brows when he saw the itinerary for another visit to Yuanzhou shop.
"Boss came back with a bad look yesterday and the business hadn't been completed. It must be that chef's fault." Cheng murmured in a low voice. After thinking for quite a while, he took up the itinerary and entered the office.
"Dong Dong", Cheng knocked on the door lightly.
"Come in." Zhong Lili was totally a strong woman when she was working.
Therefore, her words were concise and capable.
"This is your itinerary for today. I've prepared it. Please check if there's any problem." Cheng put the documents in his hands on the vermilion solid wood desk.
"Um, no problem." Zhong Lili glanced through it quickly. When she saw the itinerary for Yuanzhou shop, she knitted her brows subconsciously, but didn't say anything.
"We can also collect the documents and apply for the passport. Would you like to attend the meeting of the Chef's Alliance with the chairman first?" Cheng said sensibly.
"No need. I'll go by myself." Zhong Lili considered for a second and then rejected the proposal.
Even if she didn't want to see Yuan Zhou, Zhou Shijie asked her to go, so she naturally wouldn't give up halfway.
However, judging from the sculpting skills yesterday, Yuan Zhou indeed had the right to be proud.
"Ok. I'm going out now." Cheng didn't say anything more and just went out obediently.
"What a bother." Zhong Lili pinched her eyebrows and checked the time. Then she took up her coat and set off directly.
She had thought it would take a long time this time, so Zhong Lili had prepared to wait.
She specially wore flat shoes. However, Yuan Zhou surprised her again.
"The documents are over there. Return them to me as soon as possible. Thank you." Yuan Zhou wasn't sculpting today. He was just sharpening an ordinary iron knife.
Seeing Zhong Lili come, he pointed at the long curved table and said.
"Ok. Thank you, Mr. Yuan." Zhong Lili was stupefied for a while and then said.
Yuan Zhou nodded and said nothing. Zhong Lili let out a sigh of relief after she got the documents.
"Hoo. Fortunately, I don't need to do the follow-up work." Zhong Lili felt lucky and said that.
…
The trip to France soon arrived. Yuan Zhou was still a little confused when he got on the plane.
"Tsk, what an evil capitalism." Looking at the spacious plane, Yuan Zhou ridiculed expressionlessly.
That's right. This time, Yuan Zhou sat in the first-class cabin. The dedicated flight attendants were beautiful and polite, and their voices were soft.
"Mr. Yuan, this is your seat." The flight attendant showed Yuan Zhou's seat politely.
"Okay, thank you." Yuan Zhou sat down.
"What kind of drink would you like?" The pretty flight attendant bowed and asked politely.
"A glass of plain water," Yuan Zhou said calmly. It was impossible to tell that this was his first time taking a first-class flight.
Even Zhou Shijie, who was standing at the side, didn't notice it.
However, Yuan Zhou was complaining in his heart, "This is indeed a capitalist society. Fortunately, I won't be corrupted."
The service of the flight attendants was indeed much better than that of the economy-class cabin. Even the drinks and dishes were better.
"Let's go to Beijing for a transfer flight. It's faster this way." Zhou Shijie turned his head and said to Yuan Zhou.
"Um, okay." Yuan Zhou straightened his back and appeared quite serious.
"Relax. We are going there this time to see the culinary skills of those people. You can have a good look at them and just treat it as a game." Zhou Shijie stroked his mustaches and said leisurely.
"Um, I will." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
"Gosh. Those French girls are so enthusiastic. I'm afraid that you, a little iceberg, will melt when you get there." Zhou Shijie winked at Yuan Zhou in a rather improper manner.
He seemed to be trying to appease Yuan Zhou.
"Um. I want to see their etiquette." Yuan Zhou thought of the etiquette he had learned these few days and then said earnestly.
For the past few days, Yuan Zhou had been watching the CD provided by the system every night to study. Of course, he didn't leave his books behind. This time, he even brought three books with him to read.
"Okay. Let's take a rest. We still have a long flight after we get off the plane." Zhou Shijie signaled Yuan Zhou to take a rest and then closed his eyes to rest.
The speed of the plane greatly shortened the distance between countries around the world. Yuan Zhou and Zhou Shijie set off from Chengdu. Plus the 10 hours of waiting for the transfer flight, it took them 25 hours to arrive at Paris, France.
It was exactly 2: 30 in the afternoon. The weather was just nice. Although it was a little cold, there was still sunshine.
"Ouch. The weather is a little cold." While saying that, Zhou Shijie took out his coat and put it on.
"I have new thermal underwear here." Yuan Zhou said naturally at the side.
"Haw-haw. Don't worry. I have some in my suitcase. I won't feel cold after I put on my coat." Zhou Shijie was old but young at heart. He patted on his chest to show that he was very strong.
"The highest temperature in Paris now is 10 degrees Celsius and the lowest is 5 degrees Celsius." Yuan Zhou looked at the weather and then said earnestly.
"Okay, okay. I will add one more later." Zhou Shijie nodded his head obediently.
Only then did Yuan Zhou button up his windbreaker and leave with the two suitcases.
Although it was an invitation, the person who came to pick them up was indeed Zhou Shijie's apprentice in France.
This apprentice's Mandarin wasn't very good. Therefore, Yuan Zhou always felt awkward when he heard it. However, he still arrived at the hotel smoothly. Of course, the hotel was also a five-star hotel.
"Tall buildings are really good. The scenery is nice. It seems that overseas is not bad." Yuan Zhou didn't encounter any problems along the way. He just stood by the window and sighed with emotion.
"Ding Dong." The doorbell rang. Yuan Zhou stood up and opened the door.
"Hello, Mr. Yuan. This is the itinerary for the exchange tomorrow." A pretty girl with big eyes stood at the door and handed him a list.
"Ok. Thank you." Yuan Zhou received it courteously.
"You are welcome. Goodbye, Mr. Yuan." After saying that, the pretty girl left.
…
The next day.
"Don't be nervous even if it's your first time. Anyway, you are responsible for eating and then think about the taste by yourself." Zhou Shijie led Yuan Zhou shuttling back and forth in the venue and said to Yuan Zhou who had a solemn expression.
The entire venue was decorated with a white background. In the middle of the venue was a long table where the dishes were served. Every dish had a French name written in front of it.
The entire venue looked neat and tidy. The fresh flowers decorating the details made it more lively and pleasing to the eyes.
"Apple Boiled with Cinnamon and Red Wine?" Looking at the dishes in front of him, Yuan Zhou said flatly. However, he was puzzled in his heart.
"The name is really straightforward." Yuan Zhou said lightly.
"It's true. The names given by those foreigners can basically tell what main ingredients are used." Zhou Shijie explained to Yuan Zhou earnestly as if he were an elder.
Yuan Zhou nodded his head approvingly. However, what Zhou Shijie said next made Yuan Zhou a little puzzled and immediately stupefied.
Zhou Shijie said, "Yuan's French is not bad."
French? what？ What's that?
