Chapter 1033: Application to taste-test

As Wu Hai’s scream was too miserable, Yuan Zhou was so frightened that he didn’t even carefully taste it and swallowed the last bit of fresh crab in just a few mouthfuls. With a frown, Yuan Zhou looked at Wu Hai who was trying his best to climb up the table and said nothing. “Compass, boss Yuan, what did you eat? what did you just eat?” Wu Hai checked him up and down anxiously. “You can leave first.” Yuan Zhou said calmly. “Okay, then what did you eat?” Wu Hai retracted his hands and feet, but his neck was still stretched out as long as before. In fact, Wu Hai was not short. He was about 1.75 meters tall. Therefore, when he stretched his neck, he immediately saw a beautiful empty plate on the Azure stone countertop. Based on Wu Hai’s previous 20 years of life experience, he swore that Yuan Zhou must have eaten something delicious by himself just now. Moreover, he had eaten it secretly. “It’s a new dish. Let’s try it. ” Yuan Zhou’s answer was Frank and concise. “Is there more? Was there more? Where is he?” Wu Hai scuttled up and down again and looked around, attempting to find the unfinished food. “I just finished.” Yuan Zhou said. Wu Hai revealed a dazed look as if he had been struck by lightning. However, he only maintained that look for a second before he recovered and stared at Yuan Zhou’s mouth. “It’s the place where I just ate some delicious food without being informed. I don’t know if I can still see it if I open my mouth.” This thought flashed across Wu Hai’s mind. “I’ve already swallowed it. ” Suddenly, Yuan Zhou knew what Wu Hai was thinking. Upon hearing that, Wu Hai fixed his eyes on Yuan Zhou’s belly. Even though Yuan Zhou had been through many battles and practiced countless times in front of the mirror, he almost couldn’t keep a straight face. “This guy is not crazy.” Yuan Zhou couldn’t help ridiculing,”does he want to cut open her stomach?” “No,” Yuan Zhou emphasized with an affirmative tone. “I didn’t expect you to be this kind of compass.” Wu Hai looked at Yuan Zhou resentfully. Yuan Zhou remained silent and didn’t say anything. He was just thinking about closing the door next time. “A person’s stomach will rot if he eats alone.” Wu Hai continued saying slowly. “It’s just taste-testing. Taste-testing is an essential skill for a chef.” Yuan Zhou said naturally. “I can also taste the dishes.” Wu Hai said immediately. Without waiting for Yuan Zhou to answer, Wu Hai continued,””In the future, just leave these small matters of taste-testing to me.” “No need,” Yuan Zhou refused immediately. “I eat a lot, and I’m good at eating.” Wu Hai tried his best to promote the dish while his eyes were fixed on the empty plates on the glass counter. “You can only make something more delicious if you try it yourself.” Yuan Zhou said earnestly. Yuan Zhou had always had high requirements for cooking skills. Looking at Yuan Zhou’s serious manner, Wu Hai knew that he had no chance. Thus, he retreated to the foot of the wall and squatted down with a sad look. “Ahem, it’s not the opening time for lunch yet.” It was rare that Yuan Zhou felt a little embarrassed. He covered his mouth with his hand and reminded her after coughing. “I know, I’m just smelling the fragrance that’s left in the air,” Wu Hai said weakly. “I’m going to prepare the ingredients. ” Yuan Zhou said. “Oh.” Wu Hai looked at the empty plates on the Azure stone countertop longingly and then looked at Yuan Zhou with a hidden bitterness. With an indifferent expression, Yuan Zhou remained unmoved. “I didn’t expect you to be such a compass. You’re actually eating all the food by yourself. You shouldn’t be testing the dishes alone. My heart hurts so much.” Wu Hai said with a gloomy tone. Yuan Zhou didn’t say anything, but Wu Hai started to stare at Yuan Zhou for a long time. It was so long that even Yuan Zhou couldn’t help feeling a chill down his spine. Only then did Wu Hai walk out of the restaurant and go upstairs with his shoulders drooped. At this time, he happened to run into Zhou Xi who had just come downstairs. The resentful aura behind Wu Hai was like the resentful spirit of Sadako, causing the pedestrians on the street to retreat one after another. Only Zhou Xi still followed him as usual and spoke with concern. “Eaves Wu, what’s wrong with you?” Zhou Xi said. “I’m … Hungry …” With every word he said, Wu Hai walked upstairs one step, looking more like Sadako who climbed down from downstairs. “One hour, twenty-five minutes, and thirty seconds before master chef Restaurant opens,” Zhou Xi looked at the watch on his wrist and accurately reported the time. “I’m so hungry,” Wu Hai didn’t answer him. Instead, he was immersed in the sorrow of not having any food. “It’ll be noon soon. Eaves Wu, you’ll be able to have lunch. ” Zhou Xi said seriously. Obviously, Zhou Xi’s comfort didn’t work, because Wu Hai appeared to be even more resentful. This time, Wu Hai didn’t answer him. Zhou Xi was also used to saying nothing and then followed him back. However, Zhou Xi felt quite strange in his heart. Logically speaking, Wu Hai should know Yuan Zhou’s business hours very well. Why did he suddenly jump down just now? However, looking at Wu Hai’s current state, Zhou Xi didn’t dare to ask. “By the way, is there a faster way to go down than a slide?” When they walked to the door, Wu Hai suddenly turned his head and asked. “Ah?” Zhou Xi was puzzled. “A faster way to get to the shop.” Wu Hai said. However, before Zhou Xi could answer, Wu Hai continued,””I wonder if we can put the ladder directly into that courtyard, which is the courtyard of that Tavern.” When Wu Hai said that, he had already walked to the window with an excited look and pointed at the high wall of the restaurant next to Yuan Zhou ‘s. “I need boss Yuan’s consent for this, right?” Zhou Xi said tactfully. As soon as he said that, Wu Hai became listless again. He sat down blankly and didn’t say anything. “What’s wrong with boss Yuan?” Zhou Xi keenly felt that this matter should be related to Yuan Zhou, so he asked tentatively. However, Wu Hai didn’t have any reaction at all. Even his small mustaches that were usually clean drooped down and looked dull. It must have been a big blow to Wu Hai that he failed to grab the dishes that Yuan Zhou had cooked privately and secretly. In the restaurant, however, Yuan Zhou closed the door with a serious expression after Wu Hai left, even though it was already the time to prepare the ingredients for lunch. “It’s safer to close it. ” Yuan Zhou muttered to himself and then started to prepare the ingredients. Time passed very quickly. When Yuan Zhou was almost done preparing the ingredients, lunchtime was about to arrive. Only then did Yuan Zhou go up and open the door. As soon as Wu Hai saw Yuan Zhou at the door, he revealed a resentful expression. With the same expression on his face, Yuan Zhou turned around and went back to the kitchen. “I’m afraid this guy starved to death in his previous life. ” Yuan Zhou said in his heart. Because of what had happened in the morning, Wu Hai had been staring at Yuan Zhou ever since he opened the door. He stared at Yuan Zhou when he entered the restaurant to order the dishes, when he paid for the dishes, and even when Yuan Zhou was cooking. Only Wu Hai didn’t keep an eye on him when he was eating. After staring for a while, Yuan Zhou finally understood,”this guy must want me to compensate him for a meal. No way.” Because of this conjecture, Yuan Zhou became more and more indifferent. After all, the person who was so simple as to cheat him of a meal had not been born yet. “Good afternoon, boss Yuan,” Just when Yuan Zhou was feeling proud of himself, Yuan Yuan walked into the restaurant. “Good afternoon,” Yuan Zhou nodded his head. “Do you have any new jam today?” Roly Poly asked as usual. ……
