Chapter 688 - Because Of A Certain Person (1/2)

After Geng Xiao’s fish was served on the table, Tang Min really accepted his invitation and ate a small part of it with restraint.

They finally finished the meal in happiness. Even if it wasn’t the flathead that Tang Min had wanted, Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills greatly narrowed the gap.

“The Dongpo Garra Fish turns out to be so delicious,” Tang Min muttered to herself in her mind when they left the restaurant.

And on the other side, some other people were still thinking constantly about the food in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.

They were Dog, Zheng Xixi, Mengyi and Ge Bailing. Ever since they had a meal in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant last time, they had been constantly thinking of the dishes there. However, the price wasn’t so friendly to them. Therefore, they had never gone back anymore after that.

One month later, the four people made an appointment again to go to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant because of a turning point.

“Boss Yuan’s craftsmanship is really very high. I haven’t eaten any better dishes before.” Zheng Xixi added, “All the Rice Crust dishes served in other restaurants in Chengdu have the Sichuan flavor except for Boss Yuan’s restaurant.”

On speaking of Yuan Zhou’s dishes, the four people all revealed an expression of reminiscence though they were still walking on the way. That was also the reason why they made the appointment to go there again when they got their annual bonus after Chinese New Year.

Walking ahead of all others, Ge Bailing said, “Boss Yuan is definitely very popular among girls with the help of his superb culinary skills. One of my requirements for my boyfriend is that he must have half the level of Boss Yuan’s craftsmanship.”

“Agreed.” Meng Yi nodded her head. She was originally a big fan of beautiful appearances and thus, her main requirement for her boyfriend was that he must be very handsome. After she ate Boss Yuan’s delicious dishes, however, culinary skills also became an important standard.

Just when Ge Bailing and Meng Yi both agreed to that opinion, Dog suddenly said to them, “Then are you going to stay single for a lifetime?”

“Considering Boss Yuan’s culinary skills, I guess you are going to stay single for a lifetime if you expect your boyfriends to have half his culinary skills,” Dog analyzed earnestly.

Then, she managed to end the conversation. Meng Yi, and Ge Bailing didn’t want to talk with Dog at all.

Seeing the atmosphere turn awkward, Zheng Xixi changed the subject, “Hey, let’s talk about why Boss Yuan doesn’t have a girlfriend even though his culinary skills are so good. I heard that Boss Yuan is still single till now. Why?”

Zheng Xixi’s words successfully distracted them from the current subject. The love affairs about Boss Yuan was quite an attractive subject.

Meng Yi thought for a while and said, “I think he should have very high requirements.”

“I don’t think so. Maybe, Boss Yuan had a girlfriend before but she left for some reason one day, so Boss Yuan opened this restaurant and waited for her for many years. How beautiful it is,” Ge Bailing said expectantly.

Zheng Xixi frowned and said, “That sounds very familiar. I seem to have read a similar plot somewhere.”

Dog hit the nail on the head, “In most novels, all the supporting actors behaved in this way.”

“Bai Bai, we told you not to read so many unrealistic novels,” said Zheng Xixi helplessly. Though this story seemed to apply to Yuan Zhou very much, it was absolutely not so.

“None of you guys know that, but according to the information on the internet, Boss Yuan is so devoted to mastering his culinary skills that he doesn’t have time to find a girlfriend,” said Dog. Then, she added, “Boss Yuan only cares about his culinary skills and never thinks of anything else. That’s the reason why he can cook so many delicious dishes. Just think, would Boss Yuan be able to cook so well if not so?”

They thought for a while carefully and found it to be really reasonable.

“Exactly. I remember that those master craftsmen all require absolute focus.” Ge Bailing nodded her head.

“Dog, you finally become smart.” Meng Yi praised.

“Yeah, of course. So you agree with me, right?” Dog was quite proud of her own judgment.
