Hardcore Chef Dad

Feng Yifan obviously didn't expect that the other party would be so polite, and even said such words in a low voice.

He was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: Mr. Rodney, you're welcome. I'm just a chef in a small restaurant now. How can I compete with the Perovance restaurant? Besides, I have no intention of using my Restaurants are opening in big cities like Shanghai and Hainan.”

After hearing what Feng Yifan said, Rodney breathed a sigh of relief, but then he thought of something else.

Catherine and Hans have left, and they also took some people with them. It is said that they are coming here to open a new store with you, and John will also be with them.

Feng Yifan responded with a smile: They want to go to my hometown and open a Western restaurant next to my restaurant. They also want to dedicate Western-style meals to the people in my hometown. You can rest assured that they will not come to Shanghai. Competing with you.

While Feng Yifan and Rodney were conversing among themselves, most of those who were invited to come and look forward to tasting the world's top delicacies were a little confused because they could not understand the conversation between the two.

The two old men, Lu Xiguo and Quan Chengping, who were next to them, were also a little confused.

Precisely because they could understand the conversation between the two, they felt even more confused.

The two old men were a little confused. What is the relationship between Feng Yifan and Rodney?

Why is Rodney so respectful to Feng Yifan?

And in Rodney's words, he revealed his fear of Feng Yifan, and even directly stated that the Perovance Restaurant opened branches in China not to compete with Feng Yifan.

The two old men, Lu Xiguo and Quan Chengping, looked at each other secretly and had already roughly guessed something.

The two old men are both shrewd people, and they also have some channels of their own.

Through some of their own channels, they had heard a rumor.

That is why Perovance was able to obtain three stars, and its dishes were favored by a certain royal family, because there was another shadow chef behind their restaurant.

The shadow chef never appears in public, but every dish at the Perovance restaurant is carefully designed by him.

One thing that confirms this rumor is that the Perovance Restaurant participated in a state banquet of a certain royal family.

According to the rules, when giving awards, in addition to awarding awards to the restaurant, the chef must also be awarded a medal of honor that symbolizes royal recognition and is similar to the royal chef's medal.

But Lu Xiguo and Quan Chengping knew that Rodney did not have the medal in his hand.

So in fact, from this point of view, it can be regarded as confirming the rumor.

Now I see Rodney's attitude towards Feng Yifan, and he has repeatedly stated that the Perovance Restaurant opened a branch in China not to compete.

It was almost telling Lu Xiguo and Quan Chengping that Feng Yifan was most likely the shadow chef.

At this time, the two old men Lu Xiguo and Quan Chengping suddenly felt that maybe they should change their attitude towards Feng Yifan.

Feng Yifan continued to chat with Rodney for a few more words.

Most of them are things in the kitchen and cooking.

There are many highly technical terms that even Quan Chengping, an old gourmet, may not be able to fully understand.

However, Quan Chengping could still hear that more often than not, it was Rodney who was asking Feng Yifan for advice.

The two of them were chatting as if there was no one around. Lu Xiguo and Quan Chengping naturally had to step forward and help greet some of the invited guests.

Lu Xiguo smiled and said: Everyone, please don't be anxious. Lao Quan and I didn't expect that the chef of the world's top restaurant, Perovance, would actually know my niece's grandson. Since they are friends and colleagues , then let’s wait a moment and give them some time to talk.”

Quan Chengping then added: Don't worry, Chef Rodney will present delicious dishes to you later. You can first taste the craftsmanship of other chefs invited today.

The guests present, whether they understood French or not, could all see at this time that Rodney was very groveling in front of Feng Yifan.

While they guessed Feng Yifan's identity, they did not dare to come forward to ask anything.

Everyone knows that Rodney's status is still different. As the chef of Perovance, one of the world's top restaurants, he cannot be invited casually.

Moreover, even if Perovance opens branches in China in the future, if you want to taste the dishes cooked by the chef himself, you may not be able to do it by just spending money.

So everyone is willing to wait, just to taste the food cooked by the chef.

Rodney asked Feng Yifan for some advice, especially how to improve some of Feng Yifan's classic dishes. Through Feng Yifan's inspiration, he really benefited a lot and gained many new ideas.

In fact, at Rodney's level, in many cases it's not because of his own lack of strength.

Instead, he often falls into a fixed mindset and finds it difficult to break through the way he is accustomed to.

At this time, after Feng Yifan gave some opinions from the perspective of a bystander, Rodney would be instantly enlightened and find a suitable breakthrough point.

Rodney received the benefit and respectfully expressed his gratitude to Feng Yifan.

Thank you for your generosity. You will always be our chef in Perovance and always my chef.

Feng Yifan responded with a smile: You don't have to be so polite. Since you are now the chef of Perovance, I still believe in you. You will definitely maintain the reputation of Perovance, and Perovance will definitely be in your hands. Get better step by step.”

Rodney smiled and extended his hand to Feng Yifan.

The two men shook hands.

Rodney saw the two little girls next to Feng Yifan and asked curiously: Are these two the chef's daughters?

Feng Yifan smiled and replied: Yes, she is my daughter. This is my biological daughter. This is my daughter's good friend. She also calls me 'Father Feng' and she is also my daughter.

Rodney immediately exclaimed: Oh, Chef, you are really lucky to have two little angels like you.

The two little girls stayed by Feng Yifan's side. Although they could not understand French, the little girls did not interrupt the conversation between the two.

Only then did Feng Yifan help translate and teach the two little girls a French sentence to ask them to greet Rodney.

Rodney smiled as he heard the little girls greeting him in French.

Thank you. Rodney spoke Chinese smoothly.

Feng Yifan then said: Okay, today's stage is yours, I will take my daughters and enjoy the skills of the chef of Perovance Restaurant.

Rodney smiled and responded, It's my pleasure.

After that, the guests on the yacht were soon attracted by Rodney's superb cooking skills, and not many people noticed Feng Yifan and his party.

Of course, there are also some very professional food critics or people who specialize in writing articles close to Feng Yifan.

One of them, the editor-in-chief of a well-known food magazine, came to Feng Yifan's table in person.

Hello, hello Mr. Feng, I think, if I admit my mistake correctly, you should be Feng Yifan, Chef Feng, who has been very famous on the Internet in the past six months, right?

Although the other party is a foreigner, he speaks very fluent Chinese.

Feng Yifan smiled, looked at the other person, and then said, Well, it's me, but as the editor-in-chief of an international food magazine, you should know me.

The editor-in-chief was stunned for a moment, then laughed: Well, I do know you, but I didn't dare to recognize you before. I was worried that I had recognized the wrong person? From the conversation you had with Chef Rodney just now, I am probably sure, I must have admitted correctly, you are the shadow chef of Perovance Restaurant.

The editor-in-chief's name is Jessica, and she can be considered an old acquaintance of Feng Yifan.

It was also when she was reporting on the royal state banquet that she wrote a special article in which she mentioned the title Shadow Chef.

Therefore, Feng Yifan met the other party more than a year ago and had some interactions.

Jessica continued: Chef Feng, I originally thought that after you received the Royal Medal of Honor, your identity as chef would be announced to the public, but I didn't expect that you would leave the Perovance Restaurant. Why exactly?”

When Feng Yifan faced this problem, he looked lovingly at his daughter and Yang Xiaoxi who were eating.

His eyes were full of love. At this moment, he was no longer a top restaurant chef, nor a chef pursuing top-notch food. He was just an ordinary father who only had eyes for his daughter.

When Jessica saw this scene, she couldn't help but raise her portable camera and take a picture of it.

The photo only captured a side view of Feng Yifan, but the loving look in his eyes as he stared at his daughter was undoubtedly revealed.

Hearing the sound of the camera, Feng Yifan and others raised their heads and looked at Jessica.

Feng Ruoruo pursed her lips and said, You can't just take photos of others, it's very rude of you.

Jessica quickly apologized to the little girl: I'm sorry, I just saw the look on your dad's face when he looked at you. I thought that was the most beautiful look on your dad's face as a father, so I couldn't help but capture it.

Feng Ruoruo asked curiously: Dad, did you think I looked pretty just now?

Jessica pulled out the photo from the camera and handed it to the two little girls to see.

Look at this, isn't your father very beautiful in this? I'll develop this photo when I go back and give it to you, okay?

Seeing the photo, Feng Ruoruo and Yang Xiaoxi thought it was very good, and the two little girls no longer blamed Jessica.

Feng Ruoruo said: Then you remember, you have to give it to me and dad, you can't just give it to anyone else.

Jessica smiled and agreed: Okay, I promise.

Feng Yifan smiled and asked Jessica: Do you have the answer now?

Jessica nodded seriously: Yes, I already have the answer. The answer lies in this photo. You gave up your career because you wanted to be a father wholeheartedly.

Feng Yifan said calmly: In the past, I always wanted to be the most powerful person and chase the fame and fortune that are sought after by others, but then I discovered that those were not the things I wanted most. , I actually got it from the beginning.”

Jessica looked at the calm appearance of Feng Yifan and her daughter, and felt a kind of envy in her heart at this moment.

Feng Ruoruo looked at her father strangely. The little girl didn't quite understand what her father was talking about.

However, Yang Xiaoxi asked curiously: Father Feng, are you saying that the thing you want most is actually Ruoruo?

Feng Yifan came back to his senses after hearing this and responded to the little girl with a smile: That's right, in fact, what Father Feng wants most is Ruoruo, Xixi and Feifei. I hope you three little darlings can be happy, and then I make all kinds of delicious food for you to eat every day.

Feng Ruoruo suddenly understood: Ah, Dad, you have already done it.

Feng Yifan smiled and asked: Did you do it?

Feng Ruoruo thought for a moment and said, Oh, there's Feifei, she hasn't come back yet.

Yang Xiaoxi quickly asked: Yes, there is Feifei. When will Feifei come back?

Yang Zhiyi answered his daughter at this time: Feifei will be back next week. Next Thursday, Feifei and her grandparents will come back. We can pick up Feifei and her grandparents next Thursday.

The two little girls were naturally very happy when they heard this.

It's great, Feifei is finally coming back.

Well, Ruoruo, Feifei and I can play together again.

Yang Zhiyi added very inappropriately: You three are also preparing to go to kindergarten.

Shi Jiahui said with a smile: As a father, do you speak like this? When your child is happy, you tell others that you want to go to kindergarten.

Yang Xiaoxi immediately helped her father speak: It's okay, Aunt Jiahui. Ruoruo, Feifei and I like to go to kindergarten. The three of us can play together in kindergarten.

Feng Ruoruo also said: Yes, yes, we can play together in the kindergarten.

Shi Jiahui said with a smile: Okay, as long as you like going to kindergarten, then hurry up and eat. You will also try the craftsmanship of that amazing top chef later, and the snacks from your brothers and sisters over there are waiting for you. .”

Feng Ruoruo immediately said: Aunt Jiahui, my father is also a very good chef.

Yang Xiaoxi then said: Yes, Father Feng is the most powerful.

Shi Jiahui immediately smiled and said: Okay, your father Feng is the best, but aren't we here to eat other people's food today? So we have to try other people's cooking.

The two little girls were attracted by Shi Jiahui, and Jessica asked Feng Yifan in a low voice.

Chef Feng, I wonder if I can write a report about you?

Feng Yifan thought for a moment and said, Well, yes, but please don't mention my relationship with Perovance Restaurant. I don't want to cause trouble to them after I leave.

Jessica responded with a smile: Don't worry about this. If I want to write your paragraph, I will definitely get permission from Perovance Restaurant.

Feng Yifan smiled and said, I'm afraid old Brett won't agree.

Instead, Jessica smiled mysteriously: That's not necessarily the case.

Without giving Feng Yifan a chance to curiously ask, Jessica said goodbye to him decisively, got up and left quickly.

Soon, Lu Xiguo and Quan Chengping came over with Rodney and gave Feng Yifan and the others a dish that Rodney had specially cooked for Feng Yifan and his family today.
