Chapter 104 (2/2)

The journalists under the stage began to discuss the topic.

“Is Chef Yu questioning the judges?” a frank journalist asked another one beside him.

“Yeah, I think so. It seems to be breaking news.” The journalist beside him instantly got excited.

“Then I have to take some detailed notes,” the frank journalist muttered to himself.

“I heard there is a restaurant at No.14 Taoxi Road where the boss is said to be able to prepare a more genuine dish of Phoenix-Tail Prawns. I don’t know if he has the interest in coming over and exchanging some pointers.” Chef Yu immediately threw out his purpose without hesitation.

“Chef Yu, you are preparing to challenge that nameless chef, right?” The journalists had no more time to attend to the exquisite Begonia Desserts now.

“If he believes it to be a challenge, then it is.” Chef Yu didn’t deny. He just admitted it in another form while smiling, except that his attitude had become more arrogant.

………..

Yuan Zhou stopped watching the latter part of the interview and handed the phone back to the round-faced girl.

“Thank you.” Yuan Zhou showed gratitude.

“Not at all. Boss Yuan, what do you think?” the girl asked anxiously.

“It doesn’t matter. You guys can go back now.” Yuan Zhou still remained calm and paid little attention to that.

“Boss Yuan, then what do you think of the challenge?” the girl was a little worried of him.

“It’s ok. Thank you all, guys.” Yuan Zhou thanked them quite sincerely, however, he really didn’t care about the so-called challenge.

Yuan Zhou never did troublesome things. Furthermore, the chef didn’t mention him by name in the challenge despite having mentioned the address. Therefore, Yuan Zhou wouldn’t bother rising to the challenge.

“Master Liu, it’s time to reveal your ace.” the girl with a high ponytail, dressed in white shirt and pleated skirt, stepped over suddenly and said seriously.

“What?” the round-faced girl looked at her in puzzlement.

“Humm, Master Liu, don’t conceal your identity anymore.” this girl said while pointing at Yuan Zhou’s arm that had nothing there.

“Hey, guys. Opening hours are over. Please come back in the evening.” Yuan Zhou was helpless against this girl who stuck to calling him Master Liu, hence he could only send her away in a different way.

“Ai, he seems to be reluctant to accept the challenge. The challenge might be too weak or this Chef Yu is not excellent enough to be worth Master Liu’s willingness to accept it,” the girl who always spoke weirdly analyzed while walking out of the restaurant.

“What’s wrong with her?” the round-faced girl asked her friends beside her curiously.

“She has probably watched too many cartoons and became obsessed, hence came here to be a joke,” her friend said as if she had known her well.

“Ah, got it. It’s supposed to be Cooking Master Boy, the special-grade chef?” the round-faced girl suddenly recalled this cartoon.

“Yes. Speaking of which, Boss Yuan’s culinary skills are unexpectedly amazing. If not I have eaten the dishes, I would never believe that.” Her friend held her head in both hands and said while sighing with emotion.

“Absolutely. That Chef Yu simply overestimates himself.” The round-faced girl got a little indignant.

“Take it easy. Boss Yuan seems to care little about the challenge.” Her friend tried to comfort her immediately.

The crowd gradually dispersed while discussing heatedly whether Yuan Zhou should accept the challenge or not.

“Boss, are you going to accept it?” Mu Xiaoyun looked at Yuan Zhou curiously with her eyes open wide.

“You are still here. Hurry up and go back. Don’t be late in the afternoon.” Yuan Zhou drove the little loli away.

“Alright. But I’ve never been late, boss.” Mu Xiaoyun said as per what she thought.

“Humm.” Yuan Zhou indicated he had heard her, without any other reaction.

At this, Mu Xiaoyun had no choice but to go back home speechlessly. She was really unable to figure out what Yuan Zhou was thinking.
