Heir [Anti-Rebirth]

The contest is about to begin.

There are a total of [-] participating restaurants, which are divided into five groups. In today's competition, the top two will enter the next round of finals.

Everyone looked at the contestants in the arena, and almost everyone believed in their hearts that the imperial dining room would definitely win a spot.

Gu Liwan also had the same thought as everyone else, there should be no suspense in today's match.After all, among the contestants in the first round, apart from Yushanfang, who was the regular champion of the competition, the rest of the opponents either had mediocre results in the past, or they were participating for the first time.

So signing is also very important.

The other contestants sitting in the viewing seats were also secretly rejoicing that their family's signing luck was quite good.

With the whistle of the contest host, the game officially started.

The theme of the first competition is "Fish".

There are six groups of restaurants, each restaurant has three contestants, and two are alternates. The contestants must make a fish dish within 10 minutes. The ingredients and seasoning are provided by the conference, and finally submitted to the judges. The judges selected the top two.

In addition to the three aspects of color and fragrance, the judging criteria also include creativity, presentation and hygiene.

Although it was the first time for Gu Liwan's restaurant to participate in the culinary competition, it was fortunate that Ye Dazhuang was there.Ye Dazhuang has also participated in various competitions, big and small, and is familiar with the process.

He was sitting next to Gu Liwan, softly explaining the hygiene in the scoring criteria.

It turns out that the so-called hygiene is not just whether the appearance of the food is clean or not, but also whether the chefs pay attention to hygiene during the cooking process and whether the ingredients are thoroughly washed.

Contestants' clothing is also included in the scoring criteria.

If the female assistants have disheveled hair, points will definitely be deducted; if the nails are too long or dirty, points will definitely be deducted; there are also details such as mixing raw and cooked knives, or touching raw food without washing hands before cooking cooked food. will be included in the scope of evaluation.

Ye Dazhuang explained in detail, and Gu Liwan nodded while observing the contestants in the arena.

Sure enough, I saw the contestants in the imperial dining room, all neatly dressed, looking dry and tidy.A chef led two assistants, cooking in an orderly manner.

There are a few restaurants on the other side that seem to be in a hurry.

After all, it was the first time participating in the competition. In addition to nervousness, some preparations were not complete because of unfamiliarity with the process.Also because of the calmness of the imperial dining room, there was a lot of pressure.

Gu Liwan's seat happened to be not far from the rest area of ​​the imperial dining room. He only needed to raise his head a little, and he could see He Zhishu obliquely in front of him.

He glanced at the side face of the other party, only felt that the other party's posture was lazy, and the expression on his face was not tense, obviously he was not worried about the game at all.

That's right, Yushanfang is the ever-victorious champion of the competition. For He Zhishu, he probably already regarded this time's championship as his own.

And Feng Jingxuan, who was sitting next to He Zhishu, also looked bored.

"That's Chef Feng from the Imperial Dining Room." Ye Dazhuang noticed that he was staring at Feng Jingxuan, and said in a low voice.

"Chef Feng?" Gu Liwan raised his eyebrows. He had heard of Chef Feng's reputation before. He thought he might be an elderly chef, but he didn't expect him to be so young.

He had visited the imperial dining room several times before to investigate the enemy's situation, so he naturally knew that the chef's surname was Feng.But he never met each other once, and I heard that very few people can invite Chef Feng out.

According to Ye Dazhuang, in the previous competitions in Yushanfang, Chef Feng did not attend in person, but only sent their second chef, and beat the other restaurants to the ground.

It can be seen from this that the imperial dining room is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

And this time, not only Chef Feng from the Imperial Dining Room came, but also the big boss behind the scenes.

It seems that the Imperial Dining Room is going to make a big move.

Gu Liwan frowned slightly. It seemed inappropriate for him to rush to seek cooperation with the other party when the imperial dining room was about to make a big move?

He tapped the handle of the chair, thinking about it.

Finally, he opened the system panel, opened the skill bar, and after thinking about it for a few minutes, he resolutely used "Walls have ears."

In an instant, the whispers of the entire auditorium rushed to his eardrums, making him dizzy.

He managed to calm down, looked carefully at the skill bar, and finally found that there was a blocking function. After selecting the target person, he could block other people's conversations.

He quickly clicked on He Zhishu and Feng Jingxuan, blocking the conversation of others.

After the buzzing in his ears disappeared, He Zhishu's cold voice came into his ears.

"...You decide for yourself, in short, you must enter the finals." He Zhishu said indifferently, obviously discussing the competition with Feng Jingxuan.

"Well, I'll be off on the last day." Feng Jingxuan said carelessly.

"En." He Zhishu responded lightly.

"Don't worry, although Xiao Xu is not good enough, he is more than good enough. As long as he doesn't meet that one, he will definitely be able to make it to the finals." Feng Jingxuan said with a smile.

that one?Gu Liwan pretended to be watching the game intently, and listened carefully to the conversation between He Zhishu and the two of them.

"Which one are you sure they will send? I didn't see it." He Zhishu asked.

"Why did he need to make a move in the previous game? Of course he is the same as me, playing in the finale." Feng Jingxuan raised his eyebrows and smiled vigorously.

He Zhishu sighed in his heart, Feng Jingxuan could temporarily forget Duan Jin only when talking about cooking skills.Looking at the energetic Feng Jingxuan, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.

Then the two chatted about some other trivial matters. Gu Liwan leaned his hands on the handle of the chair and propped his chin, feeling a little drowsy. Suddenly, the words "Gu Liwan" broke into the eardrums.

He listened attentively, and heard Feng Jingxuan lower his voice, and said mysteriously: "I heard that Gu Liwan has been looking for you recently?"

"Nothing." He Zhishu flatly denied.

"No?" Feng Jingxuan was a little puzzled. He Zhishu's expression would change when Gu Liwan was mentioned before, but now he doesn't want to mention Gu Liwan.

"He has changed." He Zhishu glanced at Feng Jingxuan, knowing what his friend was thinking, he simply said it directly to save Feng Jingxuan from constantly prying.

he's changed.

Those three short words pierced into Gu Liwan's brain in an instant, and pierced into his heart fiercely.

Du Ruwei went back to Gu's house with his face on his face. He hadn't been exposed for more than a year. His former friends were also around him. No one in Gu's family or the people around him noticed that he had changed.

It turned out that He Zhishu, who hadn't met before, had changed.

His heart suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, it was extremely complicated, and he felt a little bit wronged.

The relatives and friends he was familiar with couldn't recognize the real self, and even regarded the person who hurt him as him, which made Gu Liwan feel aggrieved and sad.

He had suppressed this feeling in his heart before, but now he finally heard someone say, "Gu Liwan has changed", which made his grievance and embarrassment burst out immediately.

How can an outsider know that Gu Liwan has changed, and none of his friends or even family members feel strange?Has he failed like this before?No one is sincere to him?

He couldn't help but feel discouraged, and there was a sense of disenchantment in his heart, and now he couldn't care less about listening to He Zhishu and Feng Jingxuan's conversation, and was immersed in his own thoughts.

After a while, he felt that the voice beside his ears disappeared, and he quickly opened the skill bar to take a look, only to find that the skill "Walls have ears" has time to use.

When the time is up, the skill effect will naturally disappear.

He looked at the cooldown time of the skill and sighed. He didn't hear anything important this time, so he had to look for an opportunity next time and try He Zhishu's idea again.

Time passed by one minute and one second, and soon six ten minutes arrived.

As the whistle sounded for the end of the game, everyone in the field stopped.

At this time, He Zhishu and Feng Jingxuan stood up and left the auditorium leisurely under the eyes of everyone, without even looking at the results.

The eyes of the other contestants were a bit cloudy, and He Zhishu made it clear that the imperial dining room would definitely win, so he didn't care about the results of the judging at all, and left the venue directly.

Gu Liwan was also shocked by the arrogance of He Zhishu and Feng Jingxuan.

He turned his gaze and looked towards the center of the arena. At this moment, a staff member was already serving dishes to the judges.

There are five judges in this competition, all of whom are well-known chefs in the catering industry.

He carefully looked at the dishes of each group, then stood up and left the auditorium.The result of the competition is clear at a glance, and there is no suspense in Yushanfang, and it will definitely enter the top two.

Seeing him leave, Ye Dazhuang and others quickly stood up and followed him.

After returning to the dormitory, everyone did not return to their own rooms, but instead gathered in Gu Liwan's room, with serious expressions on everyone's faces.

"Any thoughts?" Gu Liwan asked.

"Sure enough, there are people beyond people, and heaven beyond the sky." One of the second chefs surnamed Wang sighed.The second chef Wang was originally the chef of Zhenweizhai, but he became the second chef after Ye Dazhuang came.

At first, he was not reconciled, and didn't think he would lose to Ye Dazhuang, but it turned out that Ye Dazhuang's cooking skills were better than him.But now, after coming to the culinary competition, he realized that not only Ye Dazhuang, but also many people's culinary skills are much better than him.

Others also expressed that today was an eye-opener.

In the first group, apart from the imperial dining room, there were a few other strong opponents. Although their previous results in the competition were mediocre, Zhen Wei Zhai had never participated in the cooking competition at all.

Gu Liwan saw that everyone was a little bit shocked, and said lightly: "Are you afraid? We haven't participated in the competition, but it doesn't mean we are inferior to others. We just need to do our best and show all our strength."

After cheering everyone up, Gu Liwan drove the others back to their room to rest.

There was only one game on the first day, and there were two games on the second day. Gu Liwan's third group was going to play the next day, so he asked his staff to go back and recharge their batteries for tomorrow's game.

But before they finished their dinner, the results of the first group came out. As everyone expected, Yushanfang was indeed No.1 in the first group.

There is also a restaurant in the first group, Delicious Kitchen.

Yummy Kitchen, like Yushanfang, is also a restaurant that has become very popular in recent years.However, Delicious Kitchen and Yushanfang take a different route, and it can be regarded as a restaurant that is more home-cooked.

It was no surprise that Tasty Kitchen won. ...

Gu Liwan put down the documents in his hands and rubbed the space between his brows.

Of the three partners, one has already been decided to be the Imperial Dining Room.But now he speculates that the Imperial Dining Room will make a big move, which makes him a little timid, not knowing how to do it.

For the other two targets, he was optimistic about a certain restaurant in the first group, but he didn't expect that the other party would lose out.

He pointed to the information about the delicious kitchen spread out on the table in front of him, frowning and thinking.

Why did the system suddenly give him this task?How will he convince three restaurants to cooperate with him at the same time?What name is he going to use to discuss cooperation with the other party?

The complicated thoughts made him pluck his hair irritably, and finally he simply gave up, got up, picked up his coat, left the room, walked out of the dormitory building, and strolled in the campus.

The campus at night was very quiet, Gu Liwan put his hands in his pockets and walked slowly forward.There is no destination, just wandering casually, his back looks quite leisurely.

Walking, he came to the pond. There was a small pavilion beside the pond. There were stone tables and chairs in the pavilion, which looked antique and poetic.

He didn't expect that there was such a place in S University.

But obviously, he took a step too late, there were already people in the pavilion.

The people in the pavilion also spotted him. The other party stood up and took two steps in his direction. Gu Liwan's footsteps stopped, and the other party turned out to be He Zhishu.

He sighed softly in his heart, he and He Zhishu seemed to have a special destiny, they would run into each other wherever they went.

"Hi." He greeted first.

"Hello." He Zhishu nodded slightly, his tone indifferent.

"The scenery here is pretty good." Gu Liwan looked around and said with some sighs.

"En." He Zhishu just responded softly.

"By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet. You passed the preliminary round." Gu Liwan rolled his eyes and said.

"Thank you." He Zhishu said calmly, neither humble nor overbearing.

Gu Liwan smiled, but felt a little helpless in his heart. He didn't know how to talk to the other party. The other party was so silent that it was almost impossible to say a fart with three sticks.

He pursed his lips, and when he wanted to continue looking for topics, He Zhishu suddenly said, "Zhenweizhai?"

"Huh?" Gu Liwan was stunned for a moment, then he understood and nodded, "Yeah, I'm from Zhenweizhai."

"Looking forward to meeting you in the final." It was rare for He Zhishu to say so many words to someone he didn't know well. After speaking, he nodded and left the pavilion regardless of Gu Liwan's reaction.

Gu Liwan looked at the background of He Zhishu, feeling a little puzzled in his heart. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a smile on the corner of his mouth.Can He Zhishu mean that he is very optimistic about Zhenweizhai?

Before he finished his complacency, Gu Liwan suddenly felt something was wrong. They hadn't played the game yet, and they had never participated in a game before. How could He Zhishu know their strength?

So that sentence just now was just a courtesy?

Gu Liwan curled his lips and snorted, even if it was a polite gesture, he would turn it into a fact. ...

On the other side, He Zhishu who had returned to the dormitory knocked on Feng Jingxuan's door.

"I just met someone from Zhenweizhai." He said as soon as he entered the door.

"Oh? It's Ye Dazhuang?" Feng Jingxuan asked with raised eyebrows as he poured a cup of coffee for Gu Liwan.

"No." He Zhishu shook his head, paused, and continued, "It's their new boss."

"Ye Yufang?" Feng Jingxuan thought for a while, and pulled out the materials of Zhenweizhai from his mind.

"Yes." He Zhishu nodded.

"The other party's ability to pick Ye Dazhuang is also a talent." Feng Jingxuan slumped on the sofa and said lazily.

"Your movements are too slow." He Zhishu complained in his tone. Originally, he also planned to poach Ye Dazhuang, but he was a step too late, and Zhenweizhai snatched him away.

"How do I know that there are people who, like us, can recognize heroes with their eyes." Feng Jingxuan spread his hands, looking reckless.

"Do you think Zhenweizhai can break into the top three?" He Zhishu asked after pondering for a while.

"Okay." Feng Jingxuan replied immediately without hesitation.

"Yeah." He Zhishu nodded, then frowned again, "Are you so confident in Zhenweizhai?"

"I dare say that although Ye Dazhuang's skill is not as good as that of me and that one, it is more than enough to defeat other people." Feng Jingxuan narrowed his eyes and said.

"Well, it's a pity." He Zhishu was still a little bitter about not being able to find Ye Dazhuang.

"Okay, I'm still in the imperial dining room." Feng Jingxuan waved his hands impatiently, in front of him, the number one chef, showing his favor for other chefs, which didn't put him in the slightest Let's go.

"Are you planning to stay in the kitchen for the rest of your life?" He Zhishu glanced at him and said coldly.

"Why not?" Feng Jingxuan smiled naughtily.

"The Feng family won't be sure." He Zhishu said lightly.

"...I don't care if they get it right or not!" Feng Jingxuan said harshly, stood up angrily and walked towards the bed.

"Good night." Seeing that he had climbed into bed, He Zhishu stood up and prepared to leave.

"Get out." Feng Jingxuan obviously still angry, snorted.

He Zhishu didn't care, and left leisurely.After returning to his room, his assistant was already waiting inside.The assistant brought some urgent documents and asked He Zhishu to sign them.

"What's the matter?" He Zhishu walked to the sofa and sat down, and said lightly while signing.

"Boss, Fenghua and Changyuan made a few phone calls, and Gu Ershao also made a phone call." The assistant said.

"Leave the matter of Fenghua and Changyuan to Manager Xu. What did Er Shao Gu say?"

"Second Young Master Gu wants to make an appointment with you to meet."

"Push it, just say that I don't have time recently."

"Yes."

"I'll be here for seven days, and the rest of the meetings and appointments are pushed off for me."

"Yes."

"If anyone asks, you tell them to come straight to me."

"Yes."

"Let's go back."

After the assistant left, He Zhishu leaned tiredly on the back of the sofa, thinking in his mind that this time he would use the culinary competition as an excuse to leave the company, hoping to successfully catch He's traitors.

While thinking about it, the phone in his trouser pocket suddenly rang.

"Hello, I'm He Zhishu." He Zhishu glanced at it and saw that it was a call from home.

"Hello, I heard that you won't be returning to the company these days?" He Lao's rough voice came from the microphone.

"En." He Zhishu responded lightly.

"What's going on? Someone in the company has already complained to me, saying that you went to participate in some culinary competition." He Lao asked anxiously.

"The news spread really fast." There was a sneer on the corner of He Zhishu's mouth.

Isn't that right, he just showed his face at the meeting this afternoon, and immediately someone in the He family found out, and even ran to the old man to complain.

"..." When He Lao heard this, he fell silent.

He also heard the subtext of He Zhishu, his thoughts turned around, he snorted, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect Lao Li to have problems."

"Not necessarily, maybe Uncle Li also cares about the He family." He Zhishu said ambiguously.The first to file a complaint does not mean the first to receive the news.

Uncle Li was single-handedly picked up by Mr. He, and today he will be the first to complain to Mr. He, and he may have been used because Uncle Li has always shown his loyalty to Mr. He.

"Well, I'm old anyway, so I'll leave these to you." Elder He sighed, he didn't want to take care of these bad things anymore, after all, the He family would hand them over to He Zhishu, all of which belonged to He Zhishu up.

"Well, Grandpa, you should have a good rest." He Zhishu softened his tone and said in a gentle voice.

"Okay, I just want to tell you that you won't be at peace once you leave the He family." He Lao said.

"Thank you, grandpa." He Zhishu smiled.It is to make them not calm, otherwise why would he leave the He family, and if he doesn't give them a chance, how can he find out the inner ghost. ...

******

After He Zhishu left He's, the cooperation between Chang Changyuan and Fenghua fell on Manager Xu.

For Xu Zhiyao and Chen Anhua's harassment every three days, Manager Xu's spirit was about to collapse, but when the CEO entrusted him with the work, even if he had to bite the bullet, he had to do things beautifully.

In addition to Changyuan and Fenghua, "Second Young Master Gu" also started to contact He's frequently.

But no matter how "Second Young Master Gu" contacted him, He's assistant to the president always said "the president has something to do recently", and rejected his invitation.

Du Ruwei on the other end of the phone was so angry that he jumped up, but he had nothing to do with the other party. Even if he went directly to He's, he would still be blocked from the door without an appointment.

A few days later, Du Ruwei finally got the news of He Zhishu, but he didn't expect that the other party would go to participate in some kind of culinary competition, which really surprised people.

At first, when everyone heard that the prince of the He family went to participate in the culinary competition, it was a bit of a joke. When they found out that He Zhishu's restaurant was the Imperial Dining Room, everyone couldn't help but smile.

Fortunately, everyone is still guessing who is the real boss behind the imperial dining room.

Some people think that the imperial dining room belongs to Feng Jingxuan, and the owners behind it are naturally the Feng family, but after everyone's observation and testing, there is no contact between the Feng family and the imperial dining room.

Some people also think that Feng Jingxuan is just a cover, and the boss behind it is someone else, but the identity of the boss behind the scenes cannot be guessed.

Now the answer to the mystery is revealed, the boss behind the imperial dining room is actually the He family of the Clothing Kingdom.

Well, for food, clothing, housing and transportation, He Shi has already taken care of food and clothing.

At this time, someone suddenly said that the He family had a lot of ambitions, and it seemed that it was heard that Gu Er Shao and He Shao were in contact a while ago.Now everyone has exploded. Is the He family going to develop into "living"?

Who doesn't know that the Gu family started in real estate, if the He family is a clothing kingdom, then the Gu family is a real estate kingdom.

After everyone's false rumors, in a short time, not only the entire Jingtong City, but almost the whole country, it was spread that He's going to cooperate with Gu's.

One of the protagonists in the rumors, Du Ruwei, has been unable to contact He Zhishu for nearly a month, let alone cooperate. ...

Gu family

Du Ruwei sat in the study with a gloomy face.

"Is there still no news from the He family?" Du Ruwei asked.

"Yes." Liu Xin was also very helpless. These days, they tried their best, but they couldn't contact He Zhishu.

"Get ready, let's go to S University." Du Ruwei decided to go to S University to block people in person. He didn't believe that he couldn't catch He Zhishu.

After listening to Du Ruwei's instructions, Liu Xin immediately prepared the documents and proposal, and then followed Du Ruwei directly to the venue of the culinary competition, S University. ...

At this time, the culinary competition has been held for three days, and the top two in each group have been announced.

The ten restaurants that entered the finals were divided into two groups. In the next four days of the competition, each of the two groups will take out a No.1 in the first two days.

Then on the third day, the remaining eight restaurants competed for the third place and No.4.

The last day is of course the finals, and the No.1 of the two groups will be determined.

Unfortunately this time, Gu Liwan's Zhenwei Zhai and He Zhishu's Imperial Dining Room were opposite each other.

Among the five restaurants in the first group, apart from Zhenweizhai and Yushanfang, there is also a delicious kitchen with a high reputation for winning, and the other two restaurants, like Zhenweizhai, are participating in the competition for the first time.

Apart from Zhenweizhai, Yushanfang does not regard other restaurants as rivals at all; while Yummy Kitchen does not take Zhenweizhai seriously. For Yummy Kitchen, only Yushanfang can be called a rival.

The result of the competition was as expected, Yushanfang won the first place in the first group.The remaining four restaurants are waiting for the penultimate day to compete for No.3 and No.4.

After the game, Gu Liwan led the crowd to leave the auditorium, when he happened to run into someone from Delicious Kitchen.

The person in charge of Delicious Kitchen stopped and looked at Gu Liwan and the others. The chef behind him looked proud and glanced at Ye Dazhuang's apron that he hadn't taken off from the corner of his eye.

"Zhenweizhai?" the person from Delicious Kitchen asked.

"Well, hello." Gu Liwan nodded and said lightly.

"Well, I'll see you on the court the day after tomorrow." With a slight sarcasm on their faces, the group of Delicious Kitchen left the auditorium with their heads held high.

"Chu Ye, they are so stupid, their eyes are on the top of their heads." Ye Dazhuang's assistant muttered.

"Don't worry about them," Gu Liwan said.

Just as he was leading the way to the outside of the auditorium, a group of people approached from afar.He squinted his eyes, feeling that the leader looked familiar, and the next moment, the leader's face came into view clearly.

Gu Liwan froze in place, watching "Gu Liwan" walking towards him.

"Gu Liwan" brought Liu Xin and several managers into the auditorium.Gu Liwan brushed past them, his heart was beating fast, and the anger in his chest was almost gushing out.

He clenched his fists tightly to resist the urge to go forward and grab "Gu Liwan". God knows how much he thought about it, so he rushed forward and punched him hard.

"Boss?" Ye Dazhuang and the others behind him were a little puzzled, wondering why Gu Liwan stopped suddenly.

"It's okay, let's go." Gu Liwan secretly took a few deep breaths, and after barely gathering his mind, he led a few people and left the auditorium quickly.

Behind him, Du Ruwei, who was holding his face, was walking towards He Zhishu. ...

Gu Liwan hurriedly walked, and finally returned to the dormitory. He locked himself in the room, declined the visits of other people, threw himself on the bed, and angrily knocked on the bed.

He didn't expect to meet Du Ruwei here. Seeing his face on someone else's body, Gu Liwan couldn't help the desire to kill.

Du Ruwei, this despicable guy who stole his face, Gu Liwan really wanted to tear him apart.It was okay when he didn't see Du Ruwei, he could still suppress his hatred.

But now Du Ruwei appeared, facing his face, as if laughing at him, laughing that there was no one around him who understood, and Du Ruwei made fun of them all.
