Chapter 403 (2/2)
“Alright, I got it.” Zhong Lili took a look at Yuan Zhou and said that helplessly.
Of course, the discontent in her heart reached the apex.
As for Yuan Zhou, he was naturally sculpting carefully. This time, he was trying to sculpt Immortal Zhang Guo Lau of the TV series of Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, who was riding a donkey backwards.
In the end, even the furs of the donkey were clearly seen. So was the wild and intractable expression on the donkey’s long face.
Not to mention the clothes of Immortal Zhang Guo Lau. It was naturally also incomparably clear.
In the meantime, Zhong Lili just stood at the door of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant and waited for half an hour.
During the short period, she also tried again to call Yuan Zhou, but all ended in failure. If not for Zhou Shijie, she would have already taken the radish away.
As the assistant of the chairman of China Chef’s Alliance, Zhong Lili and her family had a good personal friendship with Zhou Shijie. There, even those famous chefs didn’t dare to ignore her like that.
Let alone this was just a Yuan Zhou. Thus, she was extremely angry.
Once Yuan Zhou finished his work, Zhong Lili immediately went up and said, “Respected Mr. Yuan, please show me your ID, 2-inch color photos and household register. I will apply for the visa for you with them.”
“Of course, if you don’t have it now, please go to take a photo first. You wouldn’t know the procedures for the visa application and you need not know them. I will get everything done for you.” Although she used the words like “respected” and “please”, there was not an ounce of respect towards him.
However, Yuan Zhou didn’t seem to hear that. He just put a sculpture of Immortal Zhang Guo Lau on the shelf beside him carefully.
Then, he straightened himself up and asked Zhong Lili while looking at her, “I’m sorry. I didn’t hear you. Could you please repeat that?”
Yuan Zhou said that with a tepid tone, which let Zhong Lili sensitively realize something went wrong.
She shut her mouth, saying nothing, and chose to keep silent for a moment.
At that moment, Zhong Lili caught sight of the radish sculpture that Yuan Zhou had put on the shelf beside her.
She wasn’t good at cooking or sculpting, but knew about such things. For such a sculpture, even the best disciple of Zhou Shijie couldn’t do that.
They just couldn’t reach the integration of the form and the spirit like that. It was like a miniature figurine of the genuine immortal person.
“Your sculpting skills are truly awesome.” Zhong Lili swallowed her indignation just now. She realized she didn’t actually wait in vain after she saw his perfect craftsmanship. Therefore, she said more mildly.
“Um.” Yuan Zhou answered vaguely. Then he sat down and prepared to sculpt the radish again.
That really scared Zhong Lili. She knew Yuan Zhou was doing the latter part of the sculpture when she came here. Even so, she had waited there for almost 40 minutes.
If he continued to sculpt, she surely couldn’t finish the work today and wouldn’t know how to answer to Chairman Zhou.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Yuan. A passport is needed for going abroad, but it will take three months to get it if you apply for that by yourself. Chairman Zhou has instructed that you are going on a business trip and thus you can get it very quickly.” Zhong Lili let go of her mood and prepared to do the work first.
“How long will it take if you do it?” Yuan Zhou asked lightly.
“One day.” Zhong Lili said concisely without any more words.
“Um, but I have no photo today. You can come to collect it tomorrow. Since that is clear now, you can leave as you please.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head, indicating he had known that, and then said quite indifferently.
“Ok. I won’t bother you anymore.” Zhong Lili managed to control her hot temper and repeated inwardly that work mattered more. Only by that could she answer so calmly.
Then, Yuan Zhou no longer spoke to her, but took the radish again and started to sculpt.
He was sculpting Immortal Han Hsiang-Tzu this time. The green part at the top of the radish was used to sculpt the bamboo flute of Han Hsiang-Tzu.
“Damn it!!!” After walking out of the side street, Zhong Lili couldn’t help stamping her foot heavily and gnashing her teeth in anger.
However, Yuan Zhou didn’t really care about all that. In his opinion, the opportunity for exchanging pointers was rare, but it also wasn’t a bad idea for him to go alone.
