Chapter 194: Wu Hai’s Petty Scheme
“Looks great,” Yuan Zhou looked at the clean ground satisfactorily. Only the failed radish was left there now.
“When could this huge thing be cleared away?” Yuan Zhou indicated that he didn’t want to see it.
The system displayed, “It will be cleared away 10 minutes later.”
Looking at the radish in front of him, Yuan Zhou let out a large sigh with emotion. Even if the system provided him with the knife skills, he still needed to work hard continually by himself. This failed radish was the best evidence to prove that.
“System, could you make the radish into a specimen? But it’s better to make it smaller,” having considered for quite a while, Yuan Zhou suddenly said.
The system displayed, “Ok, one moment, please.”
After saying that, in just the time to turn around, the big radish in the kitchen disappeared like a magic show. Naturally, this kind of “magic show” happened only when there was nobody else.
After that, he prepared to leave with excitement.
With a sound of “Hua La”, he shut the door and walked to the street. Then, he suddenly realized one thing.
He raised his hand and checked the time. It was 4:00 p.m. And the weather was fine and sunny.
“Where does Wu Hai live?” Yuan Zhou stood at the door of the restaurant and thought about it seriously.
Afterwards, he took out the phone quietly, preparing to call him to come over here.
After sliding the contacts repeatedly, Yuan Zhou couldn’t help grumbling, “What’s the phone number of this fellow?”
Yes, Yuan Zhou only knew that Wu Hai lived on the second floor across the way and had also seen him walk down from the upstairs. Yet, he didn’t know which room Wu Hai specifically lived in.
With his character, how was it possible for him to knock on doors one after another and ask randomly? As for the phone number, of course he didn’t have it.
The reason was simple. He didn’t save Wu Hai’s phone number for fear that Wu Hai would also ask for his and then disturb his sweet dreams every morning, like a clock.
As he didn’t have the phone number and the address, Yuan Zhou had only to turn around and return to his restaurant quietly.
After a sound of “Peng”, Yuan Zhou shut the back door. He then stood in the kitchen and talked to himself, “I might as well go to look up some information on the computer.”
After that, Yuan Zhou nodded in approval and thought, “It’s really a good idea.” Then he walked upstairs with a sound of “Duk Duk Duk.”
During the opening hours in the evening, Yuan Zhou didn’t actually mention the matter that he needed Wu Hai’s help.
It was Yuan Zhou’s own principle that he didn’t talk about other affairs within his business hours.
The next morning, Yuan Zhou prepared Soup Dumplings.
“How rare! Boss Yuan surprisingly made Soup Dumplings again.” A customer who liked to eat the dish sighed with emotion at the side.
“That’s true. The piping hot soup and the delicious meat stuffing were simply a blessing to those who prefer to eat meat. Serve me one, please,” Ling Hong got seated and immediately started to order the dishes.
“One serving of Soup Dumplings and Lotus Root Starch,” Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches happily.
“One moment, please,” Yuan Zhou then returned to the kitchen and carried the dishes out to them.
When he set down the dishes on Wu Hai’s table, Yuan Zhou said to him all of a sudden, “Wu Hai, please stay for a while after your finish the breakfast. I have something to talk to you.”
“Pardon? What do you mean?” Wu Hai had expectantly picked up the chopsticks and prepared to eat. But when he heard Yuan Zhou’s words, he raised his head in surprise.
“Eat first, otherwise it’s going to be cold,” Yuan Zhou said with a solemn expression.
“Yeah, yeah, right. Let me eat first and talk to you later,” when Wu Hai recalled the tasty dishes on the table, he suddenly had no other thoughts and immediately picked up the chopsticks to eat.
He lightly bit through the dough skin of a Soup Dumpling and took in the soup with a slurp. Instantly, the steaming hot soup flooded into his mouth with a hint of delicious texture.
The fresh and sweet taste carried some faint scent. Furthermore, it wasn’t greasy at all. Wu Hai felt as if he had drunk a mouthful of the gravy soup. A bit of spiciness contained therein slightly stimulated his tongue and enabled him to savor the delicacy even more clearly.
With the elastic dough skin, the soft pork stuffing and the vinegar taste, Wu Hai ate up the entire soup dumpling with only one bite.
“So delicious,” Wu Hai gulped down the final lingering taste in his mouth and then said.
