Chapter 1337: Successful stealing

By the time Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou confirmed the matter of the culinary arts Exhibition, the dishes on the table were almost finished.

However, Zhou Shijie, who talked the most, ate the least this time. As soon as he lowered his head, there were only some leftovers left on the table.

“You stinky brat, you can’t do anything normally, but when it comes to eating, you’re fast with your mouth and hands.” While saying that, Zhou Shijie directly patted Liu Tong’s shoulder forcefully.

“Master, I didn’t eat much.” Liu Tong immediately cried out.

“Aren’t you the one who ate it, you pig?” Zhou Shijie pointed at the almost empty plates and bowls on the table and said.

“Uncle Zhou, I’m going to get the Chinese yam.” Yuan Zhou said at the right time.

“Alright, little Yuan, you can go.” Zhou Shijie immediately said with a gentle voice. Then, he turned to Liu Tong and said fiercely,”You can only eat one piece of the yam later, not even one more bite.”

Liu Tong was speechless.

“The speed at which he changed his attitude is too fast.” Liu Tong thought to himself. However, he still listened to Zhou Shijie’s words with a respectful look on his face.

Fortunately, Yuan Zhou came back with a plate of shredded Chinese yam not long after.

Liu Tong found that Yuan Zhou had always liked to use flat plates to hold his dishes. This time, he used a flat plate again, on which a pile of rhombus-shaped Chinese yam was piled up messily and orderly.

The Chinese yam itself had the color of white jade, but now it was wrapped in a layer of caramel-like brownish-red color. The sweet caramel color seeped through the White jade-like color, and the color was very beautiful.

It was just that the sugar that had been boiled to a caramel color would taste slightly bitter, which was originally a kind of caramel flavor.

However, the dish of candied threads was obviously not suitable. Candied threads were a combination of the original taste of the ingredient and sugar. Such dishes were usually served as snacks.

“Please enjoy your meal.” Yuan Zhou set down the plate and said.

“I’ll try it first. ” Liu Tong couldn’t help but pick up his chopsticks and ask out of curiosity.

“You’re only allowed to eat one. ” Zhou Shijie reminded him coldly at the side.

“Yes, Master.” Liu Tong helplessly replied. Sure enough, he only picked up a piece of Chinese yam.

“Si.” Liu Tong picked up the Chinese yam with his chopsticks, and a long and bright sugar thread was pulled out of the seemingly distinct Chinese yam.

Liu Tong was excited. He didn’t break the sugar threads, but stood up and moved backward. He didn’t stop until the sugar threads were two or three meters away from him.

“It’s so long,” Liu Tong said.

“It’s indeed very long, but you’ll have to eat it all,” Zhou Shijie stroked his goatee and said.

“Um …” Liu Tong looked at the long sugar threads and felt helpless.

Although the sugar threads were very long, they weren’t much. After all, the sugar threads were as thin as silk threads. However, it wasn’t aesthetically pleasing to eat them with such long lengths.

If his master was the only one here, Liu Tong would not hesitate to abandon his image. He would even make Zhou Shijie laugh.

However, when Liu Tong looked at Yuan Zhou, who was sitting opposite him with a straight back and a serious expression, he was unwilling to do so.

Yuan Zhou was the target that he would surpass in the future. How could he not maintain his image and even lose face in front of him?

However, Yuan Zhou still added,””Indeed, the restaurant doesn’t allow waste.”

This time, Liu Tong’s way was completely blocked. He could only eat the two or three meters long sugar shreds step by step awkwardly.

The hardships that Liu Tong had experienced during this period were needless to mention. In any case, Liu Tong had decided that he would never do such a stupid thing again.

Obviously, Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou didn’t care about Liu Tong’s mental journey at all. Instead, they started to chat about the plucked Chinese yam again.

“It’s sweet but not greasy. It’s crunchy with a hint of soft and sticky texture. The taste and sweetness are just right. Little Yuan, your cooking skills are still as good as ever. ” Zhou Shijie said.

“No, I’m not good enough at cooking Lu cuisine. I’m just starting to show my face.” Yuan Zhou shook his head.

“You just learned how to cook. It’s normal that you’re not mature enough. Take it slow. With your talent, there’s no need to rush.” Zhou Shijie was speechless in his heart, but he still comforted her on the surface.

“I’ll practice more. ” Yuan Zhou answered earnestly.

“Good. Little Yuan, you must work harder. Our Chinese cuisines will go international in the future.” Zhou Shijie patted Yuan Zhou’s shoulder.

“I will,” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

On the other hand, Liu Tong, who was listening to these words at the side, felt his teeth ache.

“If this is called presentable, then what am I doing? Can’t see people or are you feeding pigs?” Liu Tong cursed in his heart but didn’t dare to interrupt.

Fortunately, Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou didn’t say much. They just ate up all the dishes on the table and then started to say goodbye.

“Thank you for the meal today, little Yuan.” Zhou Shijie said.

“You’re welcome,” Yuan Zhou shook his head.

“Go, go and thank him.” Seeing Liu Tong standing behind him, Zhou Shijie gave him a kick.

“Yes, Master.” Liu Tong felt helpless once again, but he still stepped forward and prepared to express his thanks.

“Thank you for your hospitality, boss Yuan. I’m very grateful.” Liu Tong bowed and thanked him seriously.

Liu Tong said this “thank you” willingly and happily. After all, he had secretly learned several small skills.

“I feel that my cooking skills will improve again when I go back this time.” Liu Tong thought.

In the end, the little Smarty, Liu Tong, left with Zhou Shijie in such a happy mood, like a mouse that had stolen oil.

Zhou Shijie walked to the side of Liu Tong’s car in the garage. Seeing Liu Tong’s smug look, Zhou Shijie got angry. He couldn’t help but kick him again and said,””Good-for-nothing idiot.”

Who was Zhou Shijie? he was Liu Tong’s teacher for more than ten years. Naturally, he knew Liu Tong very well. Judging from Liu Tong’s expression, Zhou Shijie knew that Liu Tong didn’t understand the purpose of the dinner at all.

Fortunately, he had learned something. Otherwise, Zhou Shijie would have to wonder if his apprentice had become a fool after learning how to cook.

Liu Tong, who had been kicked for no reason, chuckled as he turned his head and said,”Master, there’s no need to trouble you. I can get in the car myself.”

“Get lost. After you send me back, get lost.” Zhou Shijie revealed a look of disdain.

“How can I? in a few days, I’ll make you a few dishes to cool down.” Liu Tong said with a smile.

“Hmph,” he snorted. Zhou Shijie snorted coldly, but he didn’t refuse.

“Master, do you want me to send you back to the Association or home?” Liu Tong turned his head and asked with a smile.

“I’m going back to the Association. I’m not done with my work yet. Do you think everyone is as free as you?” Zhou Shijie couldn’t help swearing when he saw Liu Tong’s cheeky look.

“Master, you’re cursing again. You’re going to ruin your character setting.” Liu Tong said.

“Go, go, go, let’s go.” Zhou Shijie realized something was wrong the moment he started to curse and immediately waved his hand.

“Alright, master.” Liu Tong turned around and drove off.

Naturally, Yuan Zhou didn’t know that Zhou Shijie despised Liu Tong again because of his excellence. He was busy peeling the crab.

Having washed up and changed his clothes again, Yuan Zhou prepared to practice one last time today on how to remove the crab meat completely.

After all, he was going to make the crab roe buns tomorrow, and the most important thing for the buns was to remove the intact crab meat and crab roe.

“Tomorrow is the 16th day.” Yuan Zhou said inwardly.
