The Cheat Emperor of the Culinary World

Thinking of this, Guo Xinyi couldn’t help but turn her head to look at the street scene speeding past outside the car window.

Luo Yong had been secretly holding her hand the whole time, but when he was about to change lanes, he suddenly gave her fingertips a gentle squeeze.

Guo Xinyi turned her head.

Luo Yong flashed a smile of even white teeth, mouthing the words: ”Isn’t it wonderful, my dear? Soon we’ll have our own home!”

Guo Xinyi’s heart softened suddenly, as if that light squeeze on her fingertips was somehow gently pinching her heart!

”Silly!”

Looking at the tuft of hair blown up by the wind on Luo Yong’s head, Guo Xinyi sighed, helped tidy it up, and the little ripples in her heart slowly dissipated.

The mood was affected indeed, and being unhappy was real too.

But now that she already had a boyfriend, the subtle feelings from the past, once settled a bit, wouldn’t stir up any waves.

Luo Yong was still very attentive to her; being liked, cared for, and thought of, how could she not feel it?

However, those who are loved might become somewhat spoiled by it.

So Guo Xinyi quickly went through emotional fluctuations, then calmed down again.

Looking at the exuberant Luo Yong, she felt a bit distressed and a little guilty!

Clearing her throat softly, she quietly pulled out a box of digestive tablets from her bag, pushed out two pills, and handed them to Luo Yong: ”Take the medicine, be careful of stomach pain later.”

Luo Yong took it casually, feeling warmth inside.

His own girlfriend, truly considerate and gentle!

For his sake, after graduation, she didn’t stay in the provincial city.

Given her conditions, she would certainly have a better development if she stayed in the provincial city.

But since Luo Yong’s family had arranged a job here, with an iron rice bowl, stability, and they were not short of money, after considering many factors, he decided to return to Bei’an.

Guo Xinyi hesitated for not long before resolutely deciding to come over with him.

Finding a stable job, preparing for the wedding, getting married, having children, the two of them would continue to walk hand in hand, spending all the ordinary times left well.

Luo Yong felt this future, which could be seen at a glance, was quite good actually.

Guo Xinyi looked at Luo Yong’s profile, momentarily entranced.

Indeed, she had thought of a lot too!

In high school, because she liked Fu Yu, she never paid attention to any other male classmates.

She strived to study hard and got into university, later meeting Luo Yong.

Luo Yong’s attentiveness and thoughtfulness made her very smooth in her studies and life, with someone caring for her and helping her, she didn’t have to worry about anything.

If she hadn’t met Luo Yong, she probably would have followed her family’s advice and continued her postgraduate studies.

But life is just sometimes this way; at certain times, encountering certain people, every experience will invisibly affect the development of the future.

People are capricious creatures.

So is life.

Guo Xinyi casually zipped up her bag, her hand getting held by Luo Yong again.

This time, Guo Xinyi didn’t let him hold it, withdrew her hand, and shot Luo Yong a glare: ”Focus on driving!”

Luo Yong was very obedient to Guo Xinyi, friends around him all said he was afraid of his wife, but he felt he was just being considerate.

Luo Yong retracted his hand, focused on driving, and glanced at the rearview mirror.

Feeling a bit uncomfortable, Luo Rang adjusted his position and opened his eyes to look outside the window.

”Bro, I remember Fu Yu is a chef at Qianlima, right? When did you get so close to him?”

Luo Rang chuckled: ”Including today, I’ve only met him twice.”

Luo Yong was a bit surprised: ”Really? You seem quite familiar!”

Saying this, he turned to Guo Xinyi: ”Your old classmate has a nice character, really true-hearted!”

Guo Xinyi settled her mood, her tone softened when speaking: ”Yes, Fu Yu indeed has a good character, during high school, he had a great reputation in our class, even though his grades were average, the teachers liked him a lot.”

Hearing Guo Xinyi talk about school days, Luo Rang became interested: ”By the way, Xinyi, didn’t Fu Yu drop out during high school?”

Otherwise, wouldn’t the age not match up?

Guo Xinyi nodded: ”He dropped out in the second year, just heard him say he directly transferred to a culinary school in Bei’an.”

Luo Rang said casually: ”Seems like the teachers there are quite competent, Fu Yu really is impressive!”

Luo Yong was curious: ”How impressive?!”

Luo Rang sat up straight, his demeanor turning somewhat serious: ”Today’s customer order, if it weren’t for Chef Fu, it would definitely have been returned. The customer had particularly stringent requirements, from roasting to sauces all handled and prepared by Fu Yu himself, not at all using the ready-made sauces from our shop. In the end, he even boiled a bowl of lamb soup, and his knife skills, really, were outstanding. I watched the whole process, never seen anyone with such incredible knife skills!”

”Moreover, Fu Yu’s roasting skills are exceptionally amazing, not just our store’s Master Sun, but also the barbecue chefs from those old reputable restaurants in Bei’an, I feel like Fu Yu is better than all of them, his control of the heat and judgment of the meat quality during roasting, so precise... truly impressive, plus he’s also proficient in all the work at the cold dish section, including spice blending, ingredient usage, plating designs... all very skillful.”

”While in the roasting area, watching him operate, it was like watching a cooking tutorial video online, and even the edited kind...”

Luo Rang shared all he knew about Fu Yu, and with some admiration, his esteem for this person grew.

”Not just among peers, even among seasoned veterans like us, I think he could run neck-and-neck, perhaps even surpass most people!”

Luo Yong was full of admiration: ”That amazing!”

Guo Xinyi remained silent. She knew well about Fu Yu’s family background and educational experiences.

Dropping out midway, switching to culinary studies, she thought she knew the kind of future someone like that would have.

Yet, Luo Rang rated Fu Yu so highly!

How excellent Luo Rang was, she knew deeply, from a young age he apprenticed and progressed one step at a time to reach his current position, even in the culinary circle, he was a well-known figure.

To earn such admiration from him, it was clear just how exceptionally outstanding Fu Yu was!

Thinking of this, Guo Xinyi sighed!

”When he was in school, he was already remarkable, though his academic performance wasn’t good, he was genuine and very smart.”

”When he first reported, the teacher even made him class monitor for a semester, he was excellent at coordinating class activities, and managed everything the teachers assigned very neatly. Our homeroom teacher adored him, if not for his really poor grades, the teacher actually wanted him to keep being a class leader...”

Upon finishing, Luo Rang laughed: ”In the end, gold will shine no matter what!”
