[Love and Producer] Passive strategy
Chapter 28 The Founder of the Gourmet Empire 1
When Li Youxue came to the entrance of the Souvenir according to the location sent by Zhou Qiluo, she immediately saw the sneaky star, still wearing a peaked cap and sunglasses. Standing at the door of the store as if no one else could see him, he was still on his hips.
Occasionally, people who pass by can't help but look back at the bright orange figure - I believe that if it is not because this road is relatively remote, the number of turning back will soar.
Li Youxue sighed in her heart, walked over quickly, and patted him on the shoulder: "Are you afraid that others won't recognize you, Zhou Qiluo?"
"The most dangerous place is also the safest place. How could they think that I am Zhou Qiluo?" The boy rolled his eyes happily and complacently. "How about it, isn't it super witty?"
Li Youxue rolled her eyes, not wanting to respond to his bragging.
"Let's go! Let's go in! Don't keep the food waiting for too long!" Zhou Qiluo didn't care about her dishonorable reaction, and took her hand happily and rushed forward.
As if aware of their arrival, the reflective glass door was pulled open from the inside, and a polite old man in a beige jacket and silver-rimmed glasses appeared at the door.
"It turned out to be Qiluo," the old man's eyes immediately fell on Zhou Qiluo, and his smile became a little more amiable. "Welcome! But—" He turned his eyes to look at Li Youxue, looking thoughtful. "Who is this……?"
"Grandpa Cai, I want to introduce you grandly!" Zhou Qiluo said with a smile, and put his arms around Li Youxue's shoulders. "This is my best friend Li Youxue! The pudding she makes is very delicious, just like the one made by the store manager! Isn't it incredible? So I think we must bring her here once!"
"Hello, Mr. Cai," Li Youxue smiled softly and kindly. "I've heard the great name from Qi Luo for a long time, and I came here admiringly."
"Oh, yes, please come in." Old Mr. Cai seemed to be taken aback, before taking two steps back with a smile. "Please take a seat, just wait a moment."
"Come with me!" Zhou Qiluo immediately seemed to have received the call, and with a smile on his face, he pulled Li Youxue and walked inward.
The restaurant that appeared in front of them was not big, with only two tables, decorated with green and tender plants beside it, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in golden sunlight, illuminating the whole hall—in short, the environment was very good.
Mr. Cai who opened the door for them has disappeared.
Li Youxue looked around to confirm the fact that there were only two of them sitting here, and asked Zhou Qiluo in a daze, "Don't you need to order?"
"The menu here is personally designated by the store manager every day, so it's different every day." Zhou Qiluo had already taken off the hood of his sweater, and was taking off his peaked cap at this time, shaking his curly blond hair, and showing a bright smile at her. smile.
"It's really special." Li Youxue nodded, secretly keeping these details in her heart.
Not long after, Mr. Cai brought dishes to the table one by one.
"When it was first served, it was at the temperature that the store manager thought was the most delicious," Zhou Qiluo handed her the chopsticks and winked at her. "Hey, try it?"
Li Youxue took the chopsticks, thanked her, and glanced at the fragrant dishes on the table. According to her intuition, she picked up a chopstick of shrimp.
The smooth and tender fried meat Q bombs are chewy, as if they still carry the breath of the sea breeze in midsummer. After swallowing, there is still an indescribable sweetness on the tip of the tongue.
Zhou Qiluo didn't move his chopsticks, but sat opposite her with his face in his hands, looking at her expectantly.
Li Youxue was stunned for two seconds before she came back to her senses, she pursed her lips in surprise, "It's delicious...it's a delicacy I've never tasted before."
"It seems that you like it very much," Zhou Qiluo said with a smile, bending his eyes. "—that would be wonderful!"
"I'm suddenly glad now. Everyone said that the service of this store is bad." Li Youxue met Zhou Qiluo's eyes full of smiles, and commented sincerely. "If the service is too good, I'm afraid it will be overcrowded and we won't have our share."
"Well, it makes sense!" Zhou Qiluo followed her and nodded. "However, I think it's not that the service is poor, but that they have offended the store manager, right?"
"It seems that you are right." Li Youxue couldn't help agreeing - they were here all afternoon, but they didn't see any poor service.It is understandable for such a superb cook to have such a bad temper.
At this moment, old Mr. Cai happened to come from the back kitchen.
"Grandpa Cai, is there afternoon tea today? How about breakfast?" Zhou Qiluo's eyes lit up, and he looked over pitifully and beggingly.
Old Mr. Cai shook his head regretfully: "Sorry, the store is going to close today."
"So, there are only two of us as guests today?" Thinking of this, Li Youxue felt a strange feeling in her heart - as if Souvenir only opened the door to receive her and Zhou Qiluo this day!
Mr. Cai nodded simply: "Yes, are you two satisfied?"
Li Youxue curled her mouth and smiled, "Thank you, I'm very satisfied... However, today's menu doesn't have pudding, which makes me a little regretful."
"Ah, that's right, I didn't get the pudding..." Zhou Qiluo remembered his beloved pudding now, nodded suddenly, and approached Li Youxue to propose: "Then let's come again next time?"
Li Youxue looked at his big innocent eyes like a shiny little animal, and couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
Zhou Qiluo then smiled with satisfaction, like a child who got candy.
[Zhou Qiluo's favorability +23! 】
"So, are you two ready to pay the bill?" Old Mr. Cai asked gently and politely. "It's time for the small shop to close." As he spoke, he handed the two pieces of paper to the two of them.
Li Youxue was even prepared in her heart to see the sky-high bill, but when she took a closer look, there was a line of flamboyant words on it: [Stay and clean up the kitchen].
——This handwriting... A flash of light flashed in Li Youxue's mind. She raised her eyes and said in surprise, "I've never seen such a bill before."
"Huh? What is it?" Zhou Qiluo took a closer look curiously, and immediately showed an envious expression: "It's amazing, I really want to go too... It would be great if I could take a closer look at the kitchen."
"Sorry, the boss personally decides the bill for each of our customers." Mr. Cai looked at Zhou Qiluo helplessly, and politely refused.
"...Alright then." Zhou Qiluo pouted, drooping her head in aggrieved manner.
"If you really want to see the store manager so much, I can ask him for an autograph for you." Seeing his pity, Li Youxue comforted him in a low voice.
"Then, you must express my gratitude and admiration to the store manager for me." Zhou Qiluo folded his palms pitifully as a petition.
"Then please?" Old Mr. Cai watched the interaction between the two with a smile, and tentatively raised his hand to signal.
"Okay, please lead the way." Li Youxue stood up and smiled politely at the old man.
Under the friendly guidance of Mr. Cai, Li Youxue walked into the back kitchen very smoothly.But the moment she saw the interior furnishings clearly, she stopped in a little surprise.
The empty kitchen, more spacious than the external dining room.Exquisite kitchen furnishings, a complete set of kitchen utensils are neatly arranged, and small pots of succulents are placed on the window sill. Against the sunlight falling from the window, the whole room looks golden.
...so what to pack?Li Youxue thought in confusion, seeing that Mr. Cai was no longer there, she rolled up her sleeves and took a rag to start scrubbing.
The sound of "ding" made her turn around to look.
The source of the sound was the oven, and the light was still on inside. It seemed that something had just been baked.
Li Youxue opened the oven door and looked through the light - it was a creamy yellow pudding, still exuding a faint milky aroma.
Li Youxue was inexplicably a little angry... when she thought of the pudding she made.She pouted and brought out the pudding, placed it neatly on the kitchen counter, turned around and continued to tidy up.
She moved very quickly and cleaned up in a few minutes. By the way, she also watered the small plants before scanning her surroundings again.
—still empty.
Li Youxue thought about it quickly, took out a note paper and a pen from her backpack, and quickly began to write on the paper.
[Mr. shop manager of saucenir, hello:
Thank you for your hospitality today!The deliciousness of the food here is something I have never tasted before.So, even though I may be rejected or even banned from appearing here again, I still want to ask - do you agree to let me introduce it to more people in the form of a program?
Please contact me if you wish.Also, on behalf of Zhou Qiluo who has been taken care of by you a lot, I would like to express his respect for you and his love for this place.
My name is Li Youxue, phone number...]
After finishing writing quickly, Li Youxue carefully pressed the note under the plate containing the pudding, and then walked out of the kitchen slowly, closing the door behind her.
Mr. Cai was waiting outside the door, showing a gentle smile to her: "Qiluo has something to do, so let's take a step first, please go back, and leave everything to me."
Li Youxue subconsciously smiled at him: "Thanks for taking care of me... I'm leaving."
……
Walking out of the alley where Souvenir was located, Li Youxue just took two steps when she suddenly felt a strange feeling behind her that she couldn't ignore.At that time, her first reaction was to speed up her pace.
But an arm wrapped around her waist, making it impossible for her to move forward; at the same time, a palm covered her mouth and nose, making it difficult for her to make a sound.
Li Youxue stopped and didn't dare to move anymore - she didn't quite know who the person behind him was, let alone what he was going to do, it's not a good idea to act rashly.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet, only the slight wind kept stirring the broken hair on her sideburns.
The silent wind also brought the faint scent of grass and trees on the man's body.
"Senior brother?" Li Youxue called out that title in a low voice—unfortunately, her mouth was still covered, and the characters she spit out were also vague.
Miraculously, the other party actually understood.Not only did he understand, but he leaned into her ear and replied softly, "It's me." Then he let go of his hand covering his mouth and nose.
[Bai Qi's favorability +34!Bai Qi's affection for you has risen to LEVEL-7! 】
Li Youxue got the chance and turned to look.
Although it was against the street light, the face was sharp and angular, and the warm breath from her breath sprinkled on her face from time to time, bringing her a familiar look—it was indeed white.
