Chapter 790 - Bad Knife Skills (1/2)

The time was exactly as Liu Zhang had estimated. They arrived at the side street in front of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant at 10:30.

“It’s quite boisterous today, isn’t it?” Liu Zhang said as soon as he got off the car.

“Um. It’s indeed lively.” Ji Yi answered indifferently. When he ran the business of selling steamed buns, there were also many people waiting in line every day.

Obviously, Ji Yi’s anger was directed against Liu Zhang instead of Yuan Zhou. Therefore, he walked straight toward Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.

“Walk slowly. Do you think you are still a sixteen-year-old young man?” Liu Zhang walked forward after him and said.

“Though I’m not a sixteen-year-old young man, I’m physically stronger than you, old guy,” said Ji Yi straightforwardly without even turning his head.

“It’s for your own good. I don’t want you to force yourself.” Liu Zhang walked quickly and caught up to him.

Just as Ji Yi was prepared to open his mouth and jeer at him, Liu Zhang suddenly said, “Don’t talk. Just look over there. Can your knife skills be as good as his?”

Liu Zhang naturally referred to Yuan Zhou, who was seated at the door and making ice sculptures.

“Of course I can’t. That is a piece of ice, not something else.” Ji Yi gave Yuan Zhou’s hands a good look and immediately said angrily. It wouldn’t feel good to hold the piece of ice in his hands, let alone carving it.

“Ice?” Liu Zhang walked closer and also found it really was ice.

The ice in Yuan Zhou’s left hand was about the size of a fist. And in his right hand was a small carving knife. That’s right. He wasn’t using the kitchen knife this time.

It was also the first time that Yuan Zhou used ice to make sculptures, so he didn’t dare posture this time.

“This little brat must be crazy, trying to sculpt ice. Doesn’t he want his hand?” Ji Yi frowned and said that.

“He’s indeed crazy.” Liu Zhang nodded his head approvingly.

Though the two people spoke like that, they didn’t go up and try to stop him. Instead, they just watched him silently.

Yuan Zhou didn’t have any special feelings being stared at. He was observing the piece of ice in his hand carefully now to find the best place to start carving.

“It feels so cold.” Yuan Zhou held the piece of ice in his hand and couldn’t help frowning.

The ice was cold while Yuan Zhou’s hand was warm. After a while, the ice melted a little bit, but Yuan Zhou’s hand was becoming pale slowly.

“Let me first carve it like this.” Yuan Zhou’s right hand started to move on the ice.

“Zi Zi”. There emitted a sharp sound from the contact of the carving knife and the piece of ice. With the ice scraps falling off, the piece in his hand gradually turned into the shape of a rabbit.

Both its appearance and its shape were absolutely lifelike and realistic.

Yuan Zhou always carved quickly. And he carved more quickly today as it was a piece of ice. He had no reason not to carve quickly. It was getting warmer and the ice would melt very easily.

“It seems that I still have a long way to go with my carving skills.” Yuan Zhou looked at the rabbit in his hand that had an unnatural fur texture and threw it into the trash bin without hesitation.

There was more than one person who saw Yuan Zhou carve the piece of ice. Some other customers also saw this scene. They had no choice. Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was small and moreover, he didn’t accept reservations. If they wanted to eat here, they had to come early.

“Tsk. This guy really has very high requirements.” Liu Zhang sighed with emotion.

“Oh, really! That rabbit doesn’t even have a basic shape. His knife skills are really not so good.” Ji Yi sneered.

“You are not objective by saying that. Boss Yuan is probably just practicing,” Liu Zhang said seriously.

“Even if he’s practicing, the knife skills aren’t satisfactory,” Ji Yi insisted saying that.

“Did you forget that he used ice?” Liu Zhang reminded.

“Even so, his knife skills aren’t satisfactory, either,” Ji Yi pointed at the rabbit thrown into the trash bin and said.

“I don’t want to waste time debating with you. After you finish the meal, don’t continue to stay in Chengdu.” It was rare for Liu Zhang to be a little unhappy.

“Humph. I haven’t tasted the cooked wheaten food,” said Ji Yi.
