2509 Bitter in the heart
The desserts had played an important role in the history of Chinese cuisine and had countless varieties. It wasn’t appropriate to call the desserts in the previous desserts tasting conference held by Yuan Zhou as a drop in the ocean.
Therefore, Ji Yi and tan kuohai, who had come into contact with Yuan Zhou previously because of the real perfume, and several famous masters in the desserts industry came together. The lineup was really luxurious. In any case, the central idea was the same.
Since the monkey wine tasting conference had been held, and there was going to be a Wine Exchange meeting soon, it was time for dim sum to be ranked according to seniority.
They were here to make a petition. Ji Yi and the others had a good attitude and didn’t say anything embarrassing. They just came to eat every day and chatted with Yuan Zhou about the desserts when he was free. Then, they sighed with emotion about the decline of the desserts industry.
Zeng fan, who had come with them, felt wronged.
Zeng fan was now a famous pillar in the pastry industry and was known as the second generation of Ji family.
Back then, Ji Yi had swept across the entire pastry world and directly forced the cooked Wheaten food competition to be suspended indefinitely. Zeng fan was 35 years old this year. When he became famous, he was only 30 years old. He was two years younger than Ji Yi, who had become famous in one fell swoop.
However, Zeng fan was also born at the wrong time. Originally, he should have had a very glorious moment, different from his name. However, it was just so coincidental that Yuan Zhou appeared out of nowhere half a year after Zeng fan became famous.
Not only did he sweep across the culinary world, but the pastry world also soon knew of Yuan Zhou’s great name and the fact that he had swept across the world with a bowl of clear broth noodle soup.
At first, Zeng fan was really unconvinced. How good could a chef who had become a monk halfway be? after all, humans had a theory about how delicious food was, so he came to eat it himself once and felt that it was really delicious.
The chewy and smooth texture of the clear broth noodle soup was really not something he could make. Moreover, Yuan Zhou gradually made many kinds of noodles. Every one of them was a masterpiece. No matter how one looked at it, Yuan Zhou was an inhuman who had cheated.
Non-human beings were already existences that ordinary people could not hope to reach, not to mention that this non-human was even using cheats. Could a human even compare to him?
Zeng fan knew himself that he was only the best among ordinary people. If he was compared with Yuan Zhou, it would be hard for Fat Tiger.
Besides, every time he came to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant with Ji Yi and the others, he would also enjoy the feeling of being pierced by thousands of arrows. The main reason was that every time he came here, Ji Yi and the others would lament about why Yuan Zhou didn’t concentrate on developing into the world of desserts. If he didn’t concentrate, no one could match him. If he did, what would happen to mankind? then they would sigh again and sigh that there was no successor in the world of desserts now. It was really miserable.
He said it so miserably that he almost sang “little cabbage” to suit the occasion. As the current leader of the pastry industry, Zeng fan wanted to say something, but he couldn ‘t.
However, apart from Yuan Zhou, Zeng fan felt that he could still take a look. It was not appropriate to say this in the restaurant. He could only say,”I feel aggrieved, but I just don’t want to say it.”
Yuan Zhou, on the other hand, finally figured out their intention after being searched for three days. He had thought that they were here to exchange desserts with him as a group, but he didn’t expect that they wanted to have a desserts exchange.
In this case, the reward of the Sea King mission was a timely rain. Therefore, Yuan Zhou also arranged for the dessert exchange meeting. Of course, the time would definitely be after the liquor exchange meeting. However, Ji Yi and the others didn’t care about that. As long as Yuan Zhou had the heart to do so, it was fine.
Therefore, Ji Yi and the others left happily. Even if they came to eat, they didn’t do anything unnecessary and were no different from ordinary diners.
Ji Yi and the others knew Yuan Zhou well. As long as he agreed to something, he would definitely arrange it perfectly.
Thinking that they might be able to see many kinds of desserts, Ji Yi and the others were very excited. The way a dessert master was excited was similar to that of a chef, which was to go back and make desserts.
With so many pastry chefs working together, the younger generation, including Zeng fan, naturally benefited greatly.
For this, Zeng fan and the others were very grateful to Yuan Zhou. After all, Yuan Zhou’s contribution was also in this. This made them feel very complicated.
After dealing with Ji Yi and the others, the business hours of the store seemed to have returned to its usual calm. Every day, there were a large number of diners lining up to eat. Many tourists who came to Taoxi road were also the main force of the line to eat. Therefore, it was not surprising that there were not many of them.
The hot and cold weather of Chengdu couldn’t stop the enthusiasm of the foodies. Recently, it seemed that they had entered menopause, so the weather was quite cloudy and uncertain. Today, they had to wear a thin down jacket. Tomorrow, the sun might be shining all over the earth, so a two-piece suit was enough to cope.
It was a gloomy day in Chengdu today. Even the occasional breeze was chilly. Almost everyone who came to line wore thick clothes. Some of them who were particularly afraid of the cold had almost wrapped themselves up like a dumpling. They didn’t lack scarves, hats, or anything else except for a pair of furry gloves. Man man was one of them. She was really afraid of the cold, especially in the past two years. Once winter came, she would want to wrap herself up like a bear.
She didn’t know if it was because she was getting old, but man man didn’t want to find out the reason at all. However, this didn’t prevent her from wrapping herself up well, even though it was just the beginning of winter.
Standing behind man man, Weng Xin, who had long hair, looked particularly different in such an environment. Compared to Xiong Manman in front of her and Zhong Xiaoxiao, who was wearing a thin down jacket and didn’t look bloated, Weng Xin was dressed very lightly. She was wearing a long-sleeved dress and flesh-colored stockings, which were not very thick.
Judging by the looks of it, it was just a little bit thicker than the thin silk stockings that were worn in summer. Man man felt a little cold just by looking at it. There was a kind of cold called ‘I feel cold when I look at you’, which was probably man man’s situation.
She shivered at the sight of Weng Xin’s clothes. How cold was it? if she hadn’t seen Weng Xin standing there with a sullen expression, she would have put on more clothes for her.
Since she didn’t see him as cold, as a civilized customer of master chef Restaurant, man man wouldn’t do anything unnecessary to make him hate her. Except for occasionally looking at him, she didn’t do anything.
The other customers, including Zhong Xiaoxiao, did the same. They looked around casually and didn’t think anything was wrong even if they focused their attention, let alone Weng Xin, who was distracted.
Weng Xin’s attention wasn’t on this at all. Her eyes were a little dull and her eyes were as big as apricots. They were black and bright, but she seemed to be in a daze.
She did whatever the person in front of her did almost instinctively. When she received her number, she almost inserted her ID card directly into the machine. Fortunately, man man and Zhong Xiaoxiao had been paying attention to her.
The two of them looked at each other, took the number, and handed it to Weng Xin. Other than a simple “thank you”, Weng Xin didn’t say a word and still looked absent-minded.
