It was bustling outside.

Lin Fan looked at Wang Ming Yang’s expression and suddenly felt like something wasn’t right. It seemed like he didn’t have good intentions.

“What’s with that look in your eyes? Why do I feel like you want something from me?” Lin Fan knew Wang Ming Yang too well. This guy was cleverer than anyone else. With those big, resolute eyes of his, something was definitely up.

Wang Ming Yang smiled and said, “I have to say, Brother, you’re in an impressive situation. You’re clearly not a celebrity but the number of fans you have on Weibo is exceedingly high. If you gave it more time, it would only increase. We have such a close relationship. It would be great if you became an ambassador for my future products, eh?”

Lin Fan had known that it wasn’t anything good. “You’ll have to pay me. And, you’ll have to pay me as much as an A-list celebrity would be paid. If it’s anything less than ten or twenty million, don’t even think about it.”

Wang Ming Yang’s eyes widened, appearing hurt by Lin Fan’s words. “D*mn, is our relationship only that much to you?”

Lin Fan laughed, “That’s already a friendship price. It won’t be so low next time.”

Wang Ming Yang raised an eyebrow. “Who’d dare to hire you at that price?”

Lin Fan shrugged. That was hard to say.

*ring ring*

The phone rang. It was the boss of Supreme Tiger Electronic Doors, Zhong Ming. Lin Fan had no idea why he would call him but still answered the call.

Lin Fan said, “Chief Zhong, why are you calling me all of a sudden?”

The sound of Chief Zhong’s laughter rang out from the phone, “Congratulations, Master Lin. That incident regarding the human traffickers was very admirable.”

Lin Fan said humbly, “It was nothing…”

Chief Zhong said, “Master Lin, after I returned to my office that day, I had a meeting with my Technology Department and made improvements to my product. It will be released in an estimated three months’ time. I’m calling you today, Master Lin, because I wanted to invite you, if you are free, to be the ambassador for Supreme Tiger Electronic Doors. Rest assured, the salary is sure to leave you satisfied.”

“Look, someone is hiring me,” Lin Fan said to Wang Ming Yang. Then, he spoke to the phone again, “Chief Zhong, let me consider this first. After all, I’m not a celebrity and I don’t have any experience being an ambassador.”

Chief Zhong said, “Alright, alright. There’s no hurry. Think about it, Master Lin. You don’t have to rush.”

Lin Fan nodded, “Alright then. If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.”

He hung up.

Lin Fan looked at Wang Ming Yang proudly, “Did you see that? Someone’s hiring me.”

Wang Ming Yang gave a thumbs up. “You’re f*cking awesome, ok? But really, you have to be an ambassador for me next time. Let’s not talk about this for now. I’ve already planned for noon. We’ll have lunch together.”

Lin Fan nodded. “Alright. Let’s see if any of these neighboring shop owners want to come as well. If they want to come, we’ll have to invite them as well.”

Wang Ming Yang smiled. “I’m handling things here, you don’t have to worry. It’s only a meal, how much could it cost?”

…

Noontime.

Wang Ming Yang really handled things well. Practically all the owners of the surrounding shops wanted to join in. They took up ten tables altogether and it was very lively.

Lin Fan sat there, thinking about his newly attained sixth page of knowledge. One of the Eight Great Chinese Cuisines, Jiangsu Cuisine. He really wanted to give it a try. Moreover, now that he was in a restaurant, he wanted to make full use of the place. He then patted Wang Ming Yang on the shoulder and asked, “Do you know the owner of this place?”

Wang Ming Yang nodded, “I do. What is it?”

Lin Fan smiled, “I want to make some dishes for you guys to try.”

Wang Ming Yang was surprised. “You know how to cook?”

Lin Fan shot him a dirty look. “What’s wrong? Don’t look down on me.”

Wang Ming Yang laughed, “Alright, I’ll bring you to the kitchen. You can have a go but don’t make anything inedible.”

The shop owners asked curiously, “Where are you going, Master Lin?”

Wang Ming Yang said with a chuckle, “Master Lin wants to make some dishes for you guys to try.”

“Master Lin can cook?”

“That’s new.”

“Little Boss’ scallion pancakes are so delicious. I wonder how his dishes will turn out.”

Lin Fan laughed, “I just know a little bit. Since everyone is so happy today, I wanted to give everyone a try.”

The owners all laughed, “Actually, we’d like it best if Master Lin gave us a scallion pancake each.”

…

In the kitchen!

Wang Ming Yang, “Elder Zhang, my brother wants to make a few dishes. Would it be convenient?”

The owner of the restaurant smiled upon hearing that. “If Chief Wang wants it, even if it’s not convenient, I’d have to make it happen.”
