In the span of one afternoon, Ye Chui and Lin Wei browse around the furniture mart. This lady is very focused on the task, and showed off the shopping skills of and tastes of ladies. Even the table and chairs must match.

Although Ye Chui finds shopping with Lin Wei a bit tiring, Lin Wei has good taste. The furniture mart agreed to deliver the furniture to them – since the shop is very near, the delivery is quite quick.

As well, there were two potted plants that Lin Wei purchased. She thought that the plants will make the restaurant feels more welcoming and nicer.

Ye Chui nodded his head. For a restaurant, the interior décor is very important. Although he is not opening a high-end restaurant, these tables and chairs are quite classy, and make his restaurant seemed more comfortable and relaxing.

After busying herself for the afternoon, Lin Wei was very tired. She leaned on the brand new table and grumbled, “I am so tired, so tired, so tired! I am so hungry also. Ye Chui, Ye Chui, you better cook something good for me! I want to eat the food that you cooked for Elder Han!”

“All right, please wait a moment.” Ye Chui smiled as he put on an apron and walked into the kitchen. He had already prepared all ingredients earlier.

Right now, it is almost evening. Wang Shiyu and An Jing should be back soon. It is great if everyone can enjoy the dinner together.

Ye Chui is very fussy about his ingredients, and demand the best. For example, to ensure that the taste is optimal, for the Shaoxing Drunken chicken, Ye Chui had specially breed that chicken for a few days. Each day, he would fed it with some wine so that wine penetrate into the chicken meat. When he killed the chicken, the meat is already filled with the aroma of wine. This is how he managed to create the Shaoxing Drunken Chicken.

Or the stewed chicken with mushrooms dish that he had prepared for Elder Han. Ye Chui insisted on using the finest quality mushrooms that he procured by using his relations with the vegetable stall owners in the wet market.

For each step, he would insist on the highest standard.

However, when it comes to cooking at home, he was more relaxed and does not demand the same perfection. Of course, the foods that he cooks are still very tasty. Unless you are a food critic with a very sensitive tongue like Elder Han, it is very hard for most people to discern the quality of the food that he cooks.

In a short while, all kinds of mouth-watering aromas flowed out from the kitchen. Lin Wei felt as if she was drooling. She tried to enter the kitchen to pinch some food but was chased out by Ye Chui.

Lin Wei had no choice but to sit at the dining table and grumbled as she waited for the food.

But she soon discovered to her amusement that many passersby smelled the food and immediately tried to come in to dine. When they were informed that this restaurant had not open for business yet, they looked very disappointed, and promised to come back on the day of the grand opening. This is the first time that Lin Wei had done something like a service staff, and she thought this was fun.

Lin Wei heard the sounds of footsteps and thought it is another customer who was lured here by the smell. When she turned around, she was surprised to see An Jing and Wang Shiyu.

An Jing and Wang Shiyu had just finished their lessons in school. Ye Chui had informed them to come home for dinner after school. When they saw Lin Wei, they both were surprised.

But Wang Shiyun is a quick-thinking lovable girl, and immediately rushed up and hugged Lin Wei up, “Jie Jie, it had been some time since I last saw you! I missed you so much!”

Lin Wei stroked Wang Shiyu’s head. She was very pleased to hear these words, and smiled, “I also missed you!” Then she looked at An Jing and greeted her, “An Jing, how are you?”

“I am fine, Jie Jie, how are you?” An Jing smiled as she greeted back.

At this time, a very arrogant voice suddenly rang out, “An Jing, this is your house restaurant? It is too small!”

The one speaking is a 15-16 years old man. He was following behind An Jing and Wang Shiyu. He walked into the restaurant uninvited and seemed to look down on this place.

Lin Wei was very upset at this man’s remarks! How dare he sneered at the size of this restaurant? She was the one who decided the furniture and décor!

An Jing also frowned. This restaurant is her brother blood and sweat. She was unhappy with the way this man talk.

Ye Chui heard the sound of voices from the kitchen, and he exited the kitchen with a spatula in one of his hands. When he saw the young man, he immediately questioned, “Who are you?”

“Brother, this is my classmate, Zhao Hongyu,” An Jing immediately introduced him to Ye Chui.

“Classmate?” Ye Chui was surprised. For some strange reason, his protective instincts as a brother immediately flared up.

The fact that his sister brought this man home means that she like this man? Damn it!  If this man wants to chase after my sister, he must first get my approval! He must have good character, manners, upbringing, family etc.

Ye Chui suddenly seemed like a parent as he considered all these. He asked, “Classmate Zhao, is that anything the matter?”

“Oh, it is like this. Tomorrow is the weekend, our class want to go to the nearby city to visit the Ma Lan Shan hills. This is a class activity and everyone should participate. But An Jing says that she wants to help you out and could not participate. As the class representative, I come here to seek your opinion.” Zhao Hongyu puffed out his chest as he explained to Ye Chui, “Of course, I know that your family is poor. Therefore, I can pay for the expenses on behalf of An Jing.”

Listening to the words of Zhao Hongyu, Ye Chui felt very annoyed. He does not like this man’s attitude.

At the same time, he relaxed. It looks that his sister did not invite this man home for dinner. This man just tagged along.

He smiled, “Trip? Since it is a class activity, then An Jing should participate! As for the expenses, we can pay for it ourselves.”

“Brother, it is rare for me to have some time off, I want to help you in your business.” An Jing voiced out.

“The restaurant is more or less ready. All I need is the chef license.” Ye Chui knows that An Jing does not want to waste money, but he is unwilling to be the odd one out in her class. After all, he is much wealthier now, and does not lack money.

But when he glanced at Zhao Hongyu, he could not help feeling a bit uneasy. Zhao Hongyu was looking at his sister like a wolf eyeing a sheep. Would he try to do something to his sister during the trip?

Then his brotherly instincts flared out. He thought for a moment and his eyes lit up. He asked Zhao Hongyu, “Since it is a weekend, can others join the trip?”

“You want to go as well?” Zhao Hongyu was surprised and thought for a while. Then he agreed, “Sure, we have two large buses, and there is enough space in the bus. All you have to do is to pay $100 and I will permit you to join us.”

“Great, “ Ye Chui took out 4 one hundred dollar bills and passed it to Zhao Hongyu. “Four of us will be going together.”

“Yi?” Lin Wei counted and immediately understood that Ye Chui had included her as well. She unhappily voiced out, “I did not say I will go with you.”

“Ma Lan Shan ah. There is a stream there. In the stream, there are fishes, prawns and crabs. The grilled prawns and crabs that I cooked at absolutely delicious.” Ye Chui tempted Lin Wei.

Immediately, Lin Wei did an about turn and agreed, “All right…. But I am not accompanying you…. I am just going there for some fun.”

“All right, All right, I understand,” Ye Chui nodded his head.

An Jing was looking at them while worrying about her brother. She thought that the way her brother woos a girl is really …… unique.

Zhao Hongyu accepted the money. He looked around, and sniffed, “Oh, what are you cooking? It smells great!”

Then he looked at Ye Chui and said in an arrogant matter, “You cooked this dish? Not bad! Do you need a better job? There is no future in running a restaurant business. Do you know who my dad is? My dad owns the Xizhou 32nd secondary school canteen operations. Since An Jing and I are classmates, I could ask my dad to give you a position there. The benefits are much better.”

This kid seemed to be saying, “I am a rich man’s son”, and rubbed Ye Chui in the wrong way. He immediately declined the offer, “There is no need. I love having a restaurant of my own.”

“Then forget it.” Zhao Hongyu sniffed again. “But what are you cooking? I have never smelled something as nice as this before.”

“This smell is the smell of stewed chicken and mushroom. It used a Tibetan chicken and combined with the taste of mushroom. This could make the chicken meat very tender and the taste is top notched.”

Ye Chui explained. Then he thought of something and asked, “We are about to have dinner. Have you eaten yet?”

Zhao Hongyu heard this, and immediately replied, “Not yet!”

“Then you better find somewhere to have your dinner! What are you standing there for?” Ye Chui purposely pretended to be surprised.

Zhao Hongyu:“……”
