Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 395 What a nice tea

　　” Oh Dong Dong, you are here?” Yu Xi, the lady chef of the Song restaurant who was now promoted to the post of kitchen manager because of her quick judgements and accomplishments walked toward Yu Dong with a smile. She knew that even though the higher-ups said that her promotion from a measly chef to the kitchen manager of the restaurant was due to her skills, she knew that the reason she was able to get this post this quickly was all thanks to Yu Dong. If she hadn’t brought the game Yu Dong’s brought that day, then she would still be working in the kitchen as a chef or something, she wouldn’t have been levelled up to her current post no matter how good she was in her work.

This was why when she saw Yu Dong approaching her, she smiled at her cordially and even put down all the work as she relayed the chefs under her to work properly. ” What a rare guest, are you here with something unique once more?” 

The Song family restaurant has gotten several fascinating recipes from Yu Dong earlier and all the recipes and alcohol that they bought from Yu Dong were their restaurant’s best-seller, so of course, Yu Dong wasn’t surprised when she noticed Yu Xi’s eyes that were shining with glee as if she was watching a pile of golden taels walking towards her. Yu Dong stifled a smile as she looked at Yu Xi, in fact, the dishes that she introduced to Song Yixu were nothing rare, they were normal dishes that she had read about in books when she was in the apocalypse world.

Back then she didn’t have the ingredients or the resources to cook them and with her skills she wasn’t able to make a good dish anyway it was Chen Mi, her little chef who would take the oral recipe from her and then bustle around the kitchen experimenting before coming up with a delicacy and since he wasn’t here, forget about cooking something rare, she was hardly getting by after cooking normal dishes. 

It wasn’t that her cooking was bad but after getting used to cooking together with Chen Mi who was the brain behind those wonderful dishes, she couldn’t get used to normal tasting dishes, of course, she can cook the dish after learning from Chen Mi but it wasn’t the same without him. 

She smiled slightly and scratched her cheek with her forefinger. ” Sister Xi, I am here to meet with lady Song…sorry I didn’t bring anything today.” 

Her only intention to do this was to maintain a good relationship between her and the Song restaurant because she didn’t want to look like a leech whenever she came to look for help from Song Yixu, at least like this she can walk in with her head raised and meet Song Yixu whenever she wanted. 

Yu Xi’s smile didn’t falter at all if anything it got even wider as she slapped Yu Dong’s back and said, “It’s alright, I was just joking anyway, it’s not like I am hoping for you to bring something every time you come to our restaurant, coming to meet me once in a while is okay too.” Then she turned to look at the VIP rooms where Song Yixu must be then with an awkward smile whispered, ” I am sorry but you have to wait for a little while, Lady Song is entertaining Marchioness Qiao, whose mood isn’t really good at the moment—- I would have sent word to them and let you see Lady Song right away but I think it’s better for you to not go in there when Marchioness Qiao’s mood is so badly strung up.” 

Yu Dong’s brows jumped slightly but then she remembered meeting Jiang Fen Hua leaving the restaurant and then her expression too turned a bit awkward. ” Well, I think you are right… I shouldn’t meet Marchioness Qiao, I …when I was coming inside the restaurant, I saw Master Jiang and even offered him an all-you-can-eat coupon but I only did that because I made a mistake and was worried that I might have offended him, nothing else… I didn’t do it to suck up to him.” She hurriedly clarified, afraid that Yu Xi would misunderstand her.

” I know, you are not someone who will butter up to someone for your benefit,” said Yu Xi with a trustful expression. ” But all the more reason for you to not see marchioness Qiao, she is quite drunk and I am afraid she might not be able to see through any sense at the moment.” As if to accentuate Yu Xi’s words there was a loud bang from one of the VIP rooms, followed by a lot of muffled yelling and shouting. Yu Xi shook her head and looked at Yu Dong with a small smile, ” You see that? She is mad because our Lady allowed Master Jiang to enter the restaurant… and even though our lady is trying to reason with her that it’s a public restaurant and anyone can come here as long as they pay for what they eat but I don’t think Marchioness can understand a word our Lady is saying. If she finds out that you offered such a valuable coupon to Master Jiang you might get burned by the fire as well.” 

Since Yu Dong had no intention of getting burned by any fire, she hurriedly agreed with Yu Xi’s suggestion to wait in another VIP room instead of walking in a war zone. She was here to get some recommendations about whom to approach so that she can buy a house as well as a shop in the front lane and not because she wanted to get involved in someone else’s drama. 

Even though she was sitting in a VIP room which was far away from the one where Qiao Sha and Song Yixu were, she could still hear things like ——

’ You are supposed to be my friend!’

’Betrayal of friendship.’

’Cheating jerk’

And later on, it became a whole oral saga about how Song Yixu let Qiao Sha down by emotionally cheating on her like this and while listening to this drama and sipping on her tea as she and the server girl looked at each other, Yu Dong commented lightly, ” What a nice tea, right?”
