Chapter 584 (1/2)

“Ta Ta Ta”. After Yuan Zhou went upstairs to wash up, he returned downstairs again. It was his current habit to go upstairs and wash up for a while every time he took a rest.

It was also considered to be a kind of rest. Of course, the more important thing was cleanliness and hygiene.

Once he arrived downstairs, Yuan Zhou opened the door habitually.

As soon as he pulled open the door, he took a step backwards instantly as a woman dressed in an overcoat was standing exactly outside the door.

The instant Yuan Zhou opened the door, the woman looked straight at Yuan Zhou, which greatly startled him.

“gave me a scare.” Yuan Zhou’s face remained taut as usual. At that moment, his consistent manner of keeping a taut face finally took effect. Though he complained about her in the heart, Yuan Zhou appeared quite calm and natural.

“Hello, Boss Yuan. I’m Zhong Lili. We have met before.” The woman reached out her white hand and prepared to shake hands with him.

“Um, yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded the head.

“I’m sorry. I forgot that you don’t like shaking hands.” After Yuan Zhou answered her, Zhong Lili drew back her hand naturally and then said.

“Never mind.” Yuan Zhou cared little about that. He just gestured for Zhong Lili to come into the restaurant.

That’s right. Yuan Zhou didn’t like shaking hands with people except with other chefs. Of course, he would never refuse to shake hands if it was a pretty female chef.

“Novels always lie.” Yuan Zhou couldn’t help ridiculing in his heart upon thinking of a pretty female chef.

According to most of the popular plot in novels, if the leading role was a chef, the people he met were basically all pretty female chefs who had good figures. What’s more, various lovable and attractive girls would come to learn from him proactively.

However, the truth was that Yuan Zhou had never seen even one. As a chef must have certain arm strength and waist strength, girls usually preferred to make desserts. Therefore, there were only a few women chefs, let alone a pretty female chef. So, Yuan Zhou declared that novels always lie.

“Boss Yuan, I came to help you apply the visa to Japan this time. You don’t need to do it by yourself. I will manage it for you.” Zhong Lili said in a straightforward manner.

“Okay. I will give you my ID later.” Yuan Zhou nodded the head.

“Alright. I will wait for you downstairs.” Zhong Lili said politely.

“Um.” After a simple answer, Yuan Zhou turned around and went upstairs.

Yuan Zhou never received customers after business hours. Therefore, Zhong Lili had no choice but to sit on the chair and wait dully.

“This Boss Yuan is really a blockhead. I have waited here for almost half an hour, but he doesn’t even give me a cup of water.” Once Yuan Zhou went upstairs, Zhong Lili complained discontentedly in a low voice.

Zhong Lili came so quickly because Zhou Shijie instructed her to apply for Yuan Zhou’s visa first. Besides that, she must complete this matter personally this time.

Zhou Shijie had been aware of the unexpected incident when they applied for the French visa last time, thus he would naturally give Zhong Lili this opportunity to remedy her fault.

Of course, Zhou Shijie didn’t think Yuan Zhou would take that to heart, but Zhong Lili must complete her jobs with the right attitude. After all, she was in charge of everything concerning the exchange meeting. As the exchange meeting was a competition of soft powers, nothing was allowed to go wrong.

“Dong Dong Dong”. Yuan Zhou was wearing black soft-soled cloth boots. As the Han Chinese Clothing on the body had lotus patterns, the shoes naturally had the same. They were embroidered with dark green lotus leaves. When they came into contact with the ground, they emitted a very light sound.

“Here’s my ID.” Yuan Zhou took out his own ID.

“Alright. Sorry for bothering you, Boss Yuan. At 6:00 a.m. three days later, I’ll come over to pick you up and drive you to the airport.” Zhong Lili said in a well-behaved manner.
