The moment Yuan Zhou spoke those words, the others were rendered speechless.
After a while, Lee Yanyi, who was a frequent customer here, spoke, “Fine. I know you are even more rigid than me. Go and continue cooking.”
Lee Yanyi waved his hand with a look that showed he did not want to see Yuan Zhou in front of him anymore.
“Hehe, this kid is too rigid. But his skills are truly something you can’t criticize,” Zhou Shijie said with a smile.
“Since we are done eating, should we go now?” Hu Yue suggested as he stood up. He decided to leave before he felt even hungrier when he saw the customers around them enjoying the food.
“Yeah, let’s go. I am not full at all,” Ma Cheng muttered and stood up as well.
“Let’s go then,” Zhou Shijie stood up.
“Hmph. As a young man, he does not know how to respect the old,” Zhang Yan muttered and stood up.
As for Lee Yanyi, he said nothing and leisurely walked out of the restaurant.
Zhao Xin was the last to leave and he had the most complicated feelings among them.
When he first met Yuan Zhou, Yuan Zhou was still an odd-job worker at a three-star hotel. At that time, Zhao Xin was already a sous-chef. But not long had passed before Yuan Zhou had transformed into Chef Yuan while he was still a disciple learning from others.
Yuan Zhou had transformed into a chef that was at a similar level as his master, or even better. Suddenly, Yuan Zhou was a rank above him.
“Fate works in such a weird way,” Zhao Xin gave the restaurant a final glance before walking away.
Towards the end, Zhao Xin did not think that he would come here again in the future. Perhaps he would only come again when he felt that he was already a better chef than Yuan Zhou.
But from their current situations, it was unknown when that day would arrive.
A visible gap would serve as a motivation for one to progress, while a gap that was not visible would cause one to stand still without advancing. The present Zhao Xin was in that situation.
Zhao Xin had been holding in a certain thought all along and had never voiced it.
After the appraisal team and the filming crew left, the customers in the restaurant started discussing.
“There won’t be any problems for Boss Yuan, right?” asked a new customer. She was the owner of the accessory store next door that had started frequenting this restaurant recently.
“I think so,” Jiang Changxi nodded.
“From the looks of it, the judges seem satisfied,” said a guy wearing sunglasses. It was worth noting that the sunglasses this guy wore were, in fact, a prescription sunglasses. After all, he was shortsighted.
“Looks like the Sichuan Cuisine exemplary restaurant will be our restaurant,” said a different customer.
“Definitely. Am I right, Boss Yuan?” asked Wu Hai.
“Of course. No one can compare with Master Yuan’s skills,” said Master Cheng with a nod.
The customers all looked at Yuan Zhou, even the customers queuing outside stretched their necks up in anticipation.
“We will know when the result is released,” Yuan Zhou said, completely unperturbed.
And after receiving a satisfactory answer, the customers resumed what they were doing, eating or lining up.
“How is it, system? The mission is completed, right?” Yuan Zhou asked inwardly after turning around.
The system displayed, “The mission result will be known after the competition result is released.”
“So I won’t be able to know the result earlier?” Yuan Zhou asked.
The system displayed, “Yes.”
“Fine,” Yuan Zhou did not press on. He was still confident with himself.
Meanwhile, the appraisal team had just arrived at their meeting room and were discussing Yuan Zhou’s dishes.
“Now, it is time to voice your opinions,” Zhou Shijie said.
