Chapter 768 - Preparing to Set Off (1/2)
“Ok, please be seated,” Yuan Zhou nodded and turned around to continue cooking.
Chu Xiao sat there silently waiting for food.
“The new dish is chicken tail? Is it the feathers or something?” Wu Hai asked when he saw the name of the new dish. He was the second to enter and was naturally looking for the new dish as well.
“No. It’s where the feathers grow,” Zhou Jia gave a serious reply.
“So it’s chicken butt? Sure, give me one serving of it,” Wu Hai ordered.
The customers that came in next also found out that the new dish was the chicken butt. Everyone started talking about it.
Most of them were willing to give it a try. After all, the tail was different from the actual butt. In any case, this was something cooked by Yuan Zhou, making this new dish worth trying.
Apart from a few who were already a fan of chicken tails, this was the reason most of the customers had decided to try the dish.
That’s right. There were some that were already fans of chicken tails. After all, the chicken tail did have a unique flavor to it, an infatuating flavor. An example was the great painter, Zhang Daqian.
Yuan Zhou had a great reputation and anything he made would definitely be delicious.
And thus, the number of orders made on this lost dish surpassed Yuan Zhou’s expectation.
Chu Xiao behaved as he usually did. After the meal, he left silently without saying a single word.
Yuan Zhou was already used to this. He continued cooking silently.
Several days passed and the time for Yuan Zhou to go abroad arrived. He left behind a message about his departure. This would serve as some sort of leave application for him.
[To enable that I better serve the customers of this restaurant, to gain some international connections, to further improve my cooking skills, I am forced to make a hard decision. I am hereby going on a one-week-long leave. I will be going to Thailand to learn the essence of Thai cuisine, helping me to provide even more delicacies to my customers.]
Once again, a piece of A4 paper appeared in front of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. The paper amply showed Yuan Zhou’s helplessness and earnestness to improve himself. He believed that his customers would understand his reason.
He believed that everything he did was for a better future.
Of course, this explanation of Yuan Zhou would be more believable if the huge stack of empty A4 papers below his desk were not there.
Yuan Zhou bought this stack of paper to make it easier for him to put up leave notices in the future.
“As the saying goes, one has to be impulsive at least twice in one’s life. One is for the sake of love, and one is for the sake of going on a last-minute journey,” Yuan Zhou muttered as he looked at his leave notice. “Since I am now taking my first impulsive action, I believe the second will come soon.”
The system displayed, “Host, please use the reward as soon as possible.”
Yuan Zhou turned a deaf ear to the system. He was already used to this. He was of the opinion that this system was very lucky to meet a host without a temper like him. The system was too sketchy and if it was anyone else, the system would have long been beaten to death.
Yuan Zhou was nearly done with his affairs. He was going to Thailand for real. Before long, he would be sitting in a first-class cabin, and would be staying in a five-star hotel. This was the first time he went abroad all by himself. When he thought of the first-class cabin he was going to take, he started getting excited.
If Lee Yanyi found out what Yuan Zhou was thinking, he would probably beat Yuan Zhou to death. Even if Yuan Zhou’s previous Japan trip was not taken into consideration, Yuan Zhou had also stayed at a five-star hotel during his previous trip to Shanghai. Lee Yanyi had never seen someone as shameless as him.
