The president makes me cook every day

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Yu Xiaorong got the news that "Crystal Harbor" would openly recruit an executive chef in the United States.

When Kong Youguang resigned, he took "Crystal Harbor" from Sunshine Group.But recently he suddenly decided to take over the family business and shift the focus of development to the United States.Kong Sally will immigrate with her brother, so they have decided to change hands of the hotel.

"Do you want to buy it back?" This was Yu Xiaorong's first reaction. He felt that Chen Dongyang would definitely sell it again, after all, it was his painstaking effort.

Even Xiaorong felt that the news of Kong Youguang's public transfer of "Crystal Harbor" might be to wait for Chen Dongyang to take over the offer, or it might be a signal of reconciliation, Yu Xiaorong thought wishfully.

"However." Chen Dongyang was also watching the news: "You see they said that the acquirer must first select the executive chef who will cooperate in the future, and only the winning chef and his partner can finally get the 'Crystal Harbor' together." '."

"Is this free of money? As long as you win the game, you will give it away for nothing?" Yu Xiaorong was very surprised.

"...There is a reserve price." Chen Dongyang looked at Yu Xiaorong helplessly: "They will offer a reserve price. On this basis, whoever wins the game will sell the hotel to whom. That's what it means."

"Then how much is the reserve price? It's not even written!"

Chen Dongyang: "That was discussed between the company and the company."

"Oh..." Yu Xiaorong came to his senses a little bit: "Their restaurant is quite strange. It's not that whoever pays more sells it to whomever, and insists on having a competition. What is this for?"

"What do you guess?" Chen Dongyang hung up his phone and asked Yu Xiaorong with interest.

"Anyway, the rules of the game are also set by them." Yu Xiaorong thought for a while before saying: "In the end, they don't sell to whomever they want. No matter how you think about it, it's superfluous. It can be hyped and advertised, but it's beneficial. It should be the next family, for them themselves..." Yu Xiaorong looked at Chen Dongyang, then pursed his lips, and shook his head lightly.

"I think you've become smarter recently." Chen Dongyang smiled: "Go on."

"Could it be just to hang you, let you send people to participate in the competition, and then specifically not to choose your chef, to give you a big embarrassment!" After Yu Xiaorong finished speaking, he jumped a little, afraid that Chen Dongyang would come and beat him.

Unexpectedly, Chen Dongyang had planned a long time ago, so he pulled Yu Xiaorong back to his body, so that when he lowered his head, his lips could touch his forehead.

"Then who do you think I will send to win the game for me?" The voice whispered into my ears.

Yu Xiaorong was tickled and burned his face: "I don't guess! Anyway, I won't go!"

"You really want to go." Chen Dongyang pretended to be angry and said, "Will I send you there?" He now put on the dismissive look of a domineering president.

It's so difficult!

Yu Xiaorong could only pretend to be obedient and coaxed: "Then what should I do? Then who do you want to go to?"

Chen Dongyang just laughed.

"Do you really have someone to choose?" Curiosity was aroused, but it also brought a little bit of disappointment. "Who is who?" Yu Xiaorong blinked.

Chen Dongyang said: "Xiao Fei took the initiative to call me just now."

***

A week later, Great Imperial Capital, Crystal Harbor.

A total of 27 contestants came, because the price offered by the Kong family this time is actually low, and the market prospect of "Crystal Harbor" is obviously higher.

All the investors are looking for famous chefs, such as those from Beijing, Guangdong, Sichuan, Zhejiang, Spain, France, Italy; some combine Chinese and Western; Zhenggao's food bloggers; one of them is the champion just selected from the East Asia Division of the World Young Chef Challenge.

Yu Xiaorong had grown his experience when he participated in the last World Young Chef Challenge, but he was still shocked by the lineup this time, because this time they were all well-chosen and long-established chefs.

After all, it is not the first-tier restaurant towns, and no one dares to take a place like "Crystal Harbor".In contrast to Qunying, the latest "champion" became the youngest chef in the audience.

Teacher Liu Yurong is a panacea-like figure, and he was invited to be a judge again today, and there is also a Westerner, Philip Duran, who is also a judge.

Dulan has been coming to China frequently in the past six months, because he has been hosting the Asian Division of the World Young Chef Challenge continuously. Now the competition is basically over, and this may be his last public event before returning to China.

And the third judge is naturally Ms. Kong Sally, the former executive chef of "Crystal Harbor".She has only been the head chef for a few months, but she has put all her energy into the development of the restaurant. After a few months, she looks thinner, showing her protruding collarbone and wearing a slim fit In a black dress, her hair was neatly tied up.

If it wasn't for the family's misfortune, she would not have chosen to give up "Crystal Harbor". This competition was exactly Kong Sally's idea.

Kong Sally felt unwilling, like a bug on the tip of her heart, biting her innate noble self-esteem lightly.

The inexplicable failure in the PK with Yu Xiaorong last time was like a soft nail nailed into the body, and it gave people a sense of shame like a thorn in the back all the time, especially after the news that Chen Dongyang and Yu Xiaorong finally got together came out.

Kong Sally's Weibo is now full of sighs and ridicules, and she even had to close the comments.

There is a nightmare that a girl is born thinking that she can have everything she wants, but after she turns 17, she suddenly finds that all the things she wants most are exactly what she cannot get.

Miss Sally's eyes had been sharpening lately, and she was going through a certain metamorphosis in her life.

All the contestants were already in place, she glanced over one by one with a smile on her face, one chef and two assistants, some familiar and some unfamiliar, maybe there were indeed some people who were better chefs than her, but none Relationship, everyone came here today to accept her inspection.

When his gaze rested on Xiao Rong, his smile froze for a tenth of a second.Sunshine Group and Yu Xiaorong, the combination of the two is enough to attract people's attention, but it seems that he is not enough.Now all the participating groups are three people, but there is only Yu Xiaorong here, he is the only one!

"Welcome everyone, are all the chefs here?"

"No, no, not yet!" Yu Xiaorong hurriedly raised his hand: "Please wait a moment, our team is still missing two people!"

All eyes were on Yu Xiaorong, who was anxiously calling Xiao Fei.

No answer, nothing will happen, right?

"The time is up, now is the last 5 minutes, and the game timing will start after 5 minutes." Kong Sally tried her best to keep her tone free of any emotion.

In the guest area, after Chen Dongyang had dealt with a few business representatives who came over to greet him, he walked to a corner opposite and secretly sent Yu Xiaorong a WeChat message.

[What's going on, haven't arrived yet? 】

[Xiao Rong]: I left the kitchen knife under the bed, and they are going back to the restaurant to get the knife now.

[There are kitchen knives provided on site! ! 】

Chen Dongyang had dark lines on his face.

Yu Xiaorong didn't have the time to explain it to him. He hid the big black dragon knife that Fang Minghao passed to him under his bed, but Xiao Fei called him suddenly this morning and asked him to take it with him when he went out.

...But Yu Xiaorong didn't go out from the restaurant at all this morning, he went out with Chen Dongyang!

Unable to argue, Yu Xiaorong had no choice but to lie that he had gone out and forgot to bring a kitchen knife.

5 minutes were passing by, Yu Xiaorong anxiously looked at the door, and suddenly saw a familiar figure among the chefs.

"Brother Long!" Yu Xiaorong jumped up in surprise, and he kept waving to Liu Hailong.Liu Hailong is helping a new food blogger this time, and the business owners who support this food blogger are doing the Internet celebrity route, so they are invited.

Liu Hailong's development in "Love Food" has been pretty good recently, but when he met Yu Xiaorong's eyes, he suddenly dodged, as if he had something ashamed on his mind.

In fact, Yu Xiaorong knew it. After a while, he heard from Xu Zhou's sideways words, who passed him the news about Chen Dongyang and him, and the photo when they gave the scarf that morning.

He actually needs to clarify some things with Liu Hailong, saying that if he hadn't made such an assist, he and Chen Dongyang really wouldn't be together so happily.

Just when Xiao Rong was about to run to Liu Hailong to say hello, Kong Sally had already walked up to him at some point.

"Anchor Yu, hasn't your deputy arrived yet?" Her voice was still sweet, but it seemed that there was a little less of the innocent innocence when we first met.

"My...?" Yu Xiaorong was stunned by the question: "No, no, it's not my deputy, it's my...!"

Before he finished speaking, the door of the lobby was suddenly pushed open.

For some reason, the hall, which had been slightly noisy and uneasy because of the delay, fell silent the second the door was pushed open.

Two men walked in from the door against the light. They were wearing white and neat Chinese chef's attire.

The one who came in first, he was tall and handsome, with raised eyebrows, and his eyes were like swords.

He pushed open the door with only one hand, and asked loudly to everyone: "Is this the competition?!"

The other student standing next to him was handsome and fair, holding a large black kitchen knife wrapped in yellow silk in his hand.This fairer young man was obviously much more calm and calm, he would not ask such obvious sand sculpture questions, but just gently poked his companion with his elbow.

The two walked in side by side, and the staff came up to them. For the sake of safety and fairness, they wanted to check the "special model" kitchen knife brought in.

"he is……?"

After the shock of first meeting, someone beside me finally spoke softly.

"Could it be...?!"

Many people already have the answer in their hearts, but no one dares to be the first to say it.

Because this person has been out of their sight for too long, although no matter how long he disappears, he will still live in the hearts of every Chinese chef very clearly.

"It's Fang Minghao!"

Finally someone said his name, with a strange emphasis, the accent of a foreigner who speaks not fluent Chinese.

Duran, who was sitting on the judges' seat, stood up suddenly, and he repeated the name again:

"Fang! Ming! Hao!"

"Master! I'm here!" Yu Xiaorong hurriedly beckoned, as it was dangerous, the time would be up soon.

When Yu Xiaorong poked his head out from their cooking area, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw Kong Sally biting her lip. For some reason, a crystal tear fell from her beautiful cheek.
