Chapter 328: Their Counterattack (3)
“Well, I personally support you, Chef June”
She raised one of her eyes curiously at his unexpected response She didn’t kno to interpret what he said In other words, she was not sure if he was not interested in co with her or if he just said that out of courtesy
Min-joon said, “I’ like co special, co to have it step by step I didn’t know it before, but I’ve realized that I’reedy than I think”
“You knohat you are talking about now, right?”
“Of course, I do, and precisely at that I’ to climb the top of the mountain in front of me When I think about it, it doesn’t matter who else is there on the mountain because I just climbed the mountain because I liked it But I no that’s not the only reason I climb thehis expression He was so honest that she didn’t have to read it His eyes, his expressions, and his words honestly shohat he had in mind
He continued, “Because I realized the top of the mountain was there”
That was his answer The road ahead of hi for him to slon just because there was somebody in front of him He understood that June was concerned about him, but it was rather funny that he was considerate of her, for it was not him, a demi chef, but her as the head chef, that should be considerate of him first
June didn’t blame him for that Even if she was in his shoes, she wouldn’t be different
“I’ll look forward to seeing how far you will grow”
“Then, can I ask you a question now?”
“Of course What are you curious about?”
“What do you think is the sly at his question She felt she sent hinals that she ary of him, but he asked such a question casually
‘I wonder if this guy is so clever…’
Perhaps, he ell aware that she had no choice but to answer his question because she was his senior Besides, she clearly said a rowth If she didn’t answer, she would look dishonorable
“Well, without you I would have kept a low profile and prepare step by step But you don’t have to because you have already shown too s”
“But what I have is not directly related to cooking For exa the people and their awe fori”
“You haven’t throay much of your ideal”
She looked at him with a bitter s It was natural for hie
“I saw Rachel’s kitchen She always thinks of ideals rather than reality But the results were never bad,” he said
“Yes, I guess so It’s a really nice environ as you are with Chef Rachel,” she muttered in a cynical voice
There was even self-mockery in her voice Upset about her remarks, he was about to ask her why he washer serious expression
“Do you think Chef Rachel has succeeded only because of cooking?” She asked
“Yes, I think so, because she is the chef a those that I knoho can make the best dinner”
“Oh, you have really believed so”
She looked at his He hated the way she looked at him He didn’t feel unpleasant The shadow of this cuisine world that he had never seen He felt it so clearly that she already looked at the shadow, and she was living in the shadow He felt like he would be sucked into that shadow if he kept talking with her like this
“Chef Rachel is the chosen one”
“By whom?”
“God has chosen her, people have chosen her, and America has chosen her They said her dish orth it Fro has been loved by everybody, no matter what”
“Delicious food is always loved by everybody, isn’t it?”
“A lot of head chefs open restaurants with their own dreams and hopes, and a quarter of them are closed before the end of the year, and after three years three-fifths of them disappear Do you think they don’t kno to cook delicious food? I’ about perfect dishes like Rachel’s Do you really think they can’t make the dishes that even ordinary people like?”
“Of course not”
When he lowered his head with a bitter expression, June said in a calm voice, “In fact, you already know that just because your restaurant serves delicious food, it doesn’t mean you can run the restaurant You probably didn’t want to look at it What you wanted to do was just cook with the knife and frying pan rather than caring about the interior of the kitchen orwith other people in the foodservice”
Obviously, she seemed to have read his mind
Hewithout caring about others?”
“It depends on the chef To be honest with you, I think you can probably make it because you already have the credibility and fa with the people in the cuisine world There are very feho havecareer”
She said as if she wasyou”
The iano was more successful than they expected, with an enthusiastic response fro froher than the best sales projections they expected Besides, the consuood Min-joon was concerned about the deterioration of the pizza condition overtime when they released the finished product, but people could not even think about it because Cho Reggiano was selling like hotcakes
However, Min-joon didn’t openly express his happiness about the successfulpretentious, but he was not He was also happy, but his thoughts were so complicated that he couldn’t wholly enjoy that happiness
“Hey, you’re too pathetic if you think so,” said Deborah over the phone
“I know But what should I do? I’m built this way,” he hed for apeople sick of her like before”
“Oh, you said you and June are friends”
