Rebirth: I Didn't Expect to Be a Scholar

The three members of the Wang family sat at the dining table to eat. This was Wang Chengzheng's first meal back home.

He took a bite of mapo tofu and said with tears in his eyes: "Finally, I have eaten the authentic Chinese cuisine! Dad, Mom, you don't know how much I have suffered in country m! The bird faded out of my mouth, Huaguo Street’s Huaguo cuisine tastes weird, and it’s ridiculously expensive. It’s better not to eat that, I really miss the dishes made by Ah Ming.”

His mother coughed dryly, and tentatively said, "Ah Zheng, do you think men are better or women?"

Wang Chengzheng took two mouthfuls of food, and said vaguely while eating: "It must be a man, mom, why are you asking this?"

His father threw the bowl on the table, and said angrily: "How can a tough man be better than a woman? Liu Yanming does have many advantages that are worth learning from, but what are you not good at learning from him? You just like him like men!"

Wang Chengzheng hadn't figured out the meaning of his father's words, so he reflexively refuted, "What's the matter with Guan Aming!"

Wang Jun was furious, and slapped the dining table heavily with his hand, "I don't care if it has anything to do with him, anyway, my son Wang Jun cannot be gay!"

Wang Chengzheng was furious, "Who likes men anymore? I have a girlfriend and plan to get one next year."

The sound stopped abruptly, and he realized what his father said after he realized what his father said, "Wait, Dad, what did you say A Ming likes just now?"

Hearing that his son had a girlfriend, Wang Jun heaved a sigh of relief, and glared at his son, "Last week, Liu Yanming participated in an international food competition and won No. 1. He announced in public that his lover is a man. The girlfriend you are looking for is from country M? "

Wang Chengzheng was stunned, his expression a little dazed.

Ah Ming likes men?

Who is that man?

Why didn't he tell me?

His brain froze a bit, and he didn't even listen to his father's question.

He walked back to the bedroom in a daze, turned on the computer, and entered A Ming in the search engine.

"Latest news: The secret of Ah Ming's lover is revealed, it's actually Xiao Chengmin!"

"A Ming sent a scarf to show his love, and netizens called it a dog abuse!"

"A large group appeared on the Internet, publicly expressing their support for Ah Ming's coming out!"

"Yu Yingdi and Cong Menglan issued a scarf to express their support for A Ming's decision."

After reading these news, Wang Chengzheng suddenly cleared his mind, ran to the living room, and called Liu Yanming on the landline.

"Doo hello?"

As soon as the phone was connected, Wang Chengzheng yelled: "Liu Yanming! Did you not consider me a brother! Why didn't you tell me that you like men!"

Liu Yanming sighed, with melancholy on his brows, he knew that he would have to face this matter sooner or later, but he didn't expect to face it so soon. Wang Cheng was one of his regrets in his previous life, no matter what, he didn't want to lose this brother.

"I just treat you as a brother so I don't say it. You are a straight man and I am gay. I am worried that after telling you, my brother will have nothing to do."

Wang Chengzheng was taken aback, and then said angrily: "I have known you for six years. Am I the kind of person who breaks up with my brother because he is gay? Liu Yanming, have you lost your mind about dating?"

Although he was scolded, Liu Yanming was not angry at all, all his melancholy dissipated, and he said cheerfully: "Cheng Zheng, I was wrong! Your lord has a lot, please forgive me!"

Wang Chengzheng said arrogantly: "Hmph, no forgiveness!"

Liu Yanming's eyes turned into crescent moons, "A palace banquet."

Thinking of his brother's craftsmanship, Wang Chengzheng swallowed his saliva, and said decisively: "Deal, I forgive you!"

The two made an appointment to meet and hung up the phone.

The corners of Liu Yanming's mouth turned upwards, Wang Chengzheng settled it here, and he no longer had any worries.

The phone rang suddenly, and the caller ID was an unfamiliar number, so he answered the call.

"Is it A Ming?"

Although the voice on the phone was old, it was full of air, giving Liu Yanming a sense of familiarity, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

Liu Yanming said politely: "Hello, I'm Ming, may I ask who you are?"

The person on the phone laughed and said, "Young man, we met last week."

Liu Yanming thought about it for a while, and finally remembered that the caller was the chairman of the Huaguo Food Committee, who was also the representative judge of Huaguo in the finals.

His name is Wan Hongyuan. He is 65 years old this year. He is not a chef, but he has been the food chairman for more than 40 years.When he was young, he was also a well-known man of the hour. "The nose can tell a hundred fragrances, and the tongue can taste a thousand flavors." This is the chef's evaluation of him.

Liu Yanming smiled and said, "So it's Teacher Wan. Teacher, are you calling me?"

Wan Hongyuan smiled and said, "Young man, you know the super chef, right?"

There are tens of thousands of chefs in Huaguo, only ten of them have reached the super level, and two are at the advanced level, but they have made great contributions to the country, and they have been promoted to the ranks of super chefs. Rong Anzhi belongs to the latter. The specific contribution of the country is not known. Explain, but everyone knows that he can no longer hold a kitchen knife in his right hand for the sake of the country.

Liu Yanming's heart moved slightly, the following words were self-evident, he said with a smile: "I know, a chef who doesn't want to be a super chef is not a good chef."

Wan Hongyuan laughed loudly and said, "Even if someone can't be a super chef, he is still a good chef. A good chef cannot be measured by his cooking skills."

He echoed, "You're right."

Wan Hongyuan is very optimistic about Liu Yanming, and he has a premonition that this young man will not disappoint him, "There are two ways to become a super chef. The first is that a senior chef has made great contributions to the country. The second is to pass the special exam. Boy, are you interested in trying the second one?"

Liu Yanming's eyes turned into crescent moons, "I'm so honored."

"Hahaha, then on June [-]rd, come to City S."

"Okay, thank you teacher."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Yanming was very happy, and immediately called his lover to share his joy.

A few days later, Wang Chengzheng came to look for Liu Yanming, and Liu Yanming made a palace banquet in the club's activity room, which opened the eyes of the onlookers and other club members, and took photos and posted them on their scarves.

Liu Yanming practiced his knife skills every day, and in anticipation, he waited for June [-]rd.

He came to the Gastronomy Committee of City S to conduct the first round of examinations in front of all high-level officials.

The first round of the test is knife skills, one hundred kinds of ingredients are cut within one hour, and the results must be unanimously approved by ten senior officials.

There are thousands of senior chefs in Huaguo, and most of them have taken the special chef exam, and three out of five of them failed in the first round.

It only took Liu Yanming 10-[-] minutes to cut [-] kinds of ingredients, and the result was unanimously praised by the senior management, and he successfully passed the first round of exams.

The second round of the test is seasoning. Use the condiments to adjust the [-] kinds of aromas listed by the high-level. This round is the most test of the chef's patience and precision, and it can best reflect the chef's true level. One-fifth of the People kneel here.

In the third round of the exam, each of the ten high-level executives came up with a theme, and the chef was limited to create ten new dishes within ten hours.

The reason why there are tens of thousands of cuisines in Huaguo is because the chefs are constantly innovating. The high-level members of the food committee believe that in addition to outstanding basic skills, super chefs must also have creative thinking and rich imagination. Make Huaguo cuisine more colorful and blooming.

The second round of exams was not difficult for Liu Yanming, and his results in the third round of exams satisfied the senior management.

Three rounds of exams are over, and the vice-chairman announces that he has become a super chef.

Wan Hongyuan stroked his beard and asked casually, "For you, what is food? What is a chef?"

Liu Yanming's eyes turned into crescents, and he said seriously: "For me, food is happiness, and the chef is the creator of happiness."

Wan Hongyuan raised his eyebrows, stopped stroking his beard, and asked with interest, "Why did you say that?"

Liu Yanming's eyes showed tenderness, "Whether it's sad, tired, depressed, or painful, as long as you eat delicious food, it can always make people forget their troubles and feel happiness for a short time. Although this feeling is very short, it can at least make people feel happy." Have a moment of relaxation.

Making food to bring happiness to others is one of the reasons why I love the profession of chef, and the other reason is the most important reason, making food makes me feel happy. "

His sense of happiness in making food comes from his previous life. Only when he is cooking can he temporarily forget the grief of his family's death.It was food that gave him the courage to live alone.

The delicious food made him know Kong Shi, and Kong Shi took him back to the past and got real happiness.In his opinion, all this originated from food, but he didn't know that all this really originated from his warmth and kindness.

Hearing what he said from the bottom of his heart, Wan Hongyuan nodded in agreement and said with a smile: "Congratulations on becoming a super chef, I hope you can keep your heart and never forget your original intention."

Liu Yanming bowed to them, "Thank you teachers."

The ten high-level officials gave the young man applause.

"Hua Guo No. 13 Super Chef: Liu Yanming"

"Wan Hongyuan said bluntly: Liu Yanming is the leader of young chefs!"

"The Youngest Super Chef in History"

These news reports caused a sensation in Huaguo, and Liu Yanming once again refreshed everyone's perception.
