He was no stranger to Old Mr. Yi's disciple. He was Chen Xiang, who used to be the manager of the medicinal cuisine restaurant.
His impression of Huo Yao was neither good nor bad. In any case, he did not have a good impression of her.
Chen Xiang was surprised to see Huo Yao. He did not expect Old Mr. Yi to invite this young lady over for dinner, so he paused.
Pei Feng noticed that Chen Xiang was looking in a certain direction, so he could not help raising his head and following his gaze.
When Pei Feng saw Huo Yao approaching, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared and was replaced with coldness.
Chen Xiang did not notice Pei Feng's expression. He nodded at Huo Yao politely. "Hello, Huo Yao."
He had learned that Huo Yao and Yi Lianfan were classmates at the medicinal cuisine restaurant, so it was polite for him to address her as Huo Yao.
Huo Yao nodded at Chen Xiang.
Pei Feng did not say a word. It was as though he did not know Huo Yao at all. He did not even greet her and deliberately looked away.
Since his father and Min Yu were not around, there was no need for him to put on a show. He did not even bother to brush her off.
Huo Yao looked at Pei Feng calmly and continued walking down the corridor to the main hall. However, she bumped into Old Mr. Yi after taking two steps.
Old Mr. Yi's face clearly lit up when he saw Huo Yao. He hurried over and said, "Huo Yao, I'm going to the kitchen. Why don't you come with me?"
Huo Yao paused and looked at the excited Old Mr. Yi. She pursed her lips and said, "I don't think it's appropriate."
"Why not? My grandson... your classmate, Yi Lianfan, is the chef today. Let's go and see if he has any good suggestions." Old Mr. Yi pretended not to notice Huo Yao's rejection.
Old Mr. Yi paused before he added. "It's my birthday today."
Huo Yao pressed her forehead. Old Man Number Two was online.
When Chen Xiang saw his master walking over, he took two steps forward and overheard their conversation. He felt a little jealous when he saw Old Mr. Yi putting down his pride to invite a young lady to the kitchen.
He knew that his master wanted to take Huo Yao as his disciple, but he could not understand why his master was begging him like this.
The Yi family was a very prestigious family in the city. Generations of their ancestors were medicinal chefs in the imperial court. Their status was noble, and even now, they were respected wherever they went.
Even if they wanted to take in a disciple, the other party should come to them first, plead with them sincerely and pass the test before they could join the Yi family.
Chen Xiang glanced at Huo Yao, who looked extremely reluctant. He quickly averted his gaze and lowered his eyes to suppress the many thoughts in his mind.
Two seconds later, Chen Xiang called out to Elder Yi again.
Only then did Old Mr. Yi notice Chen Xiang. His expression subconsciously turned solemn. "Chen Xiang, you should get back to work."
Then he looked at Huo Yao and said, "Just treat it as keeping me company." Huo Yao's eyes landed on Huo Yao.
Huo Yao looked at Old Mr. Yi. "Sure."
Seeing this, Elder Yi immediately put on a smile. "Let's go."
Then, he took the lead and walked in front. When he passed by Pei Feng, he paused for a moment and politely greeted Pei Feng before continuing on his way.
Soon enough, the two of them vanished from Pei Feng and Chen Xiang's sight.
