Chapter 876 - Feast at Shu Restaurant (1/2)

“An interesting design.” The moment Yuan Zhou reached the entrance to the alley, he was enveloped by a sense of warmth.

During the current season, bamboo forests should be somewhat cold. But here, it was surprisingly warm, giving off a feeling of tranquility to one’s heart while keeping one’s body heated. This would be the perfect condition to try some delicacies.

And when Yuan Zhou walked out the alley, he reached the empty space before Shu Restaurant. It felt as if the space before him had suddenly opened up.

“This is the design adhering to the concept of the willow trees make the shade, the flowers give the light,” Yuan Zhou had a smile on his face as he studied the decorations outside the Shu Restaurant.

To the left and right were a forest of bamboo, giving one a feeling of being surrounded by green. As for the restaurant, it was a reddish-brown three-story traditional building with a roof curved upward that was commonly seen in the ancient Chinese era.

In the middle of the building was a board with the characters, Shu Restaurant, written in gold. At the doorway was a bronze qilin, and on the stairs were two restaurant employees dressed in traditional Han attire.

The doorstep of the Shu Restaurant was as tall as one’s calf, giving off a feeling that this was the residence of a great family.

Looking at how beautiful the Shu Restaurant was, Yuan Zhou started wondering when his Master Chef Restaurant could expand in size as well. He started speaking to the system again, but each time something like this happened, the system would play dead. It was unknown who had the system learned this from.

Yuan Zhou made a resolution that he needed to quickly complete his mission, work hard to keep leveling up, and to reach the summit of his life.

Just as Yuan Zhou was studying the scenery before him, a waitress dressed in green with her hair coiled in a bun stepped forward with a smile on her face.

“Hello, are you Chef Yuan, Boss Yuan?” asked the woman. Her voice tender and pleasant to the ears while she possessed a tall and slender body.

“Yes,” Yuan Zhou nodded.

“Head Chef Cao has already prepared the food and drink. This way, please,” said the woman as she made an inviting gesture.

“Ok,” Yuan Zhou nodded in an aloof manner and did not say much.

In fact, Yuan Zhou was also dressed in Han attire today. He wore a flax-colored Daoist robe that, apart from the delicate markings on it, had no other decorations. For the sake of comfort, Yuan Zhou did not have a belt on, and for the sake of eating more easily, his Han attire was one with narrow sleeves.

What one wore could truly alter one’s temperament. Many people claimed that traditional Han attire was a type of belief, but for Yuan Zhou, what he felt most when wearing Han attire wasn’t belief, but a sense of straightness and uprightness. Ever since he had started wearing Han attires, he no longer had a slouched back.

Yuan Zhou studied the posture of the waitress, drawing a comparison with his own posture.

“Um, not bad,” Yuan Zhou muttered inwardly.

Yuan Zhou had been persevering with daily exercise for a year and the fruits of it were showing now. When he dressed in the loose-fitting robe, due to his straight posture, he looked slender and tall. He was never an ugly person but now he looked even better.

There were no ugly women in the world, only lazy women. This saying was applicable to men as well. Generally speaking, men who bothered with their appearance would look quite good as well.

The waitress walked half a step behind Yuan Zhou while diligently guiding his way.

Ta. Ta. Ta. Their footsteps were slow and unhurried. Yuan Zhou did not say anything. When he reached the doorstep, he stepped inside.

The moment he entered, he was faced with a gorgeous and elegant interior. To the side of the door was a row of water bamboo, their lush leaves arranged in an orderly fashion. The ground was blanketed by a soft rug that gave off a feeling of stepping on clouds.

Apart from the row of bamboo grown on water, there was also a row of waiters and waitresses standing there. The moment Yuan Zhou entered, they shouted their greeting in uniform.
